My Nail Trimming Experience
Gentle Handling
“The groomer holds my paw carefully and shows me the clippers first so I’m not surprised. They go at my pace.”
Quick Process
“It’s over before I know it! They only take off the very tips so it doesn’t hurt. I get treats for being brave.”
Smoothing Edges
“After clipping, they file my nails so they’re nice and smooth. No more catching on carpets or scratching my humans!”
All Done!
“I get lots of praise and maybe an extra treat. My paws feel so much better when I walk now!”

Nail Care Tips
At-Home Handling
Regularly touch your dog’s paws and nails when relaxed to make professional trims easier. Pair with treats for positive associations.
Signs It’s Time
If you hear clicking on hard floors or see nails curving downward, it’s time for a trim. Long nails can cause pain and posture issues.
Dark Nails?
Our groomers are trained to safely trim dark nails where the quick isn’t visible. We take small amounts gradually to avoid cutting too short.
