It is an important to a dog;s health to be sure that their nails are trimmed so that they do not touch the ground when they are standing. Long nails can cause injury to joints caused by forcing the toes to be twisted aside when standing and causing your dog to walk unnaturally to avoid the pain.
In addition to trimming nails, it is important to trim the hair that grows under the feet. This hair can grow long and be caught under the foot pads when walking. This hair also reduces traction on hard surfaces.
We understand that nail trimming is often not your dog's favorite activity and we are glad to teach you and your dog how to make nail trimming a less traumatic experience. It will take time and dedication, but it is worth it for the health of your dog.
We have availiable our favorite trimmers and styptic powder.
