For A Perfect Pooch Choose Guillotine Nail Clippers.

By Rebecca Foxton

Dogs can have the need for a regular manicure probably more than humans do; hence the need for trimmers.

Overly long nails in humans are annoying but in dogs they can split and break causing bleeding paws.

Your dog's feet are tough but tender, and any foot injury can cause serious problem to move about.

If you hear your dog's nails making a sound on hard floors, it's time for a trim. You have two choices about what to do - do it yourself or go down the professional route.

If you choose the DIY option, make sure you are prepared!

The right equipment is important and you need to know how high to cut the nail without hurting your dog.

Without these you will have a recipe for disaster on your hands.

The quick is the area to watch for when you trim your dog's nails, you should cut below this. It is easy with dogs with transparent or light coloured nails but harder with dark nails so take care!

Master Grooming Tools Guillotine Nail Clippers are the correct tools for the job too. Safe and efficient clippers, with an ergonomic, plastic handle that is easy to grip and won't slip or wear out your hand. Some dogs find nail clipping stressful, so the ultra sharp blades of the Guillotine Nail Clippers make the cutting as easy and stress-free as possible, even with tough nails.

So you have got your equipment, now let's talk technique.

It is often best to sit with your dog in your lap, holding his paw firmly, but not roughly.

Push on the pad to extend the nail and trim the nail below the quick at a 45 degree angle. Trim only small amounts at a time.

Finish the nails off by checking you haven't left sharp or uneven edges.

Really take care when trimming your pet's nails; imagine how vulnerable you would feel with someone cutting your toenails!

If an accident does happen with the trimmers, reach for Gimborn Kwik Stop Styptic Gel with Benzocaine to stop blood flow.
