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

If the nails grow too long, many health problems can result, such as bleeding and broken nails and ingrown nails.

Your dog's paws need to be kept in tip top condition as he uses them all the time.

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 doing it yourself is your style, remember a couple of vital rules.

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

If you try to cut corners you may end up cutting your dog's paw by accident.

Dogs have tough feet but the quick of the nail is still very tender, so you need to have a good idea of the limit of how high to cut. On paler and clear nails the quick is clearly visible by its pink color, it is trickier with dark nails.

Firstly let's look at the equipment; Master Grooming Tools Guillotine Nail Clippers are a great solution, as they are designed with the user in mind with non-slip, low impact grip so your hand won't get tired and you won't lose your grip even if it's wet. The sharp blades mean that trimming is easy and safe.

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

The best position is to sit with your dog in your lap taking his paw in your hand.

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.

Clearly extreme caution must be taken when trimming the nails, otherwise you may snip a very sensitive area of your dog's foot, and he won't thank you for it!

Gimborn Kwik Stop Styptic Gel with Benzocaine will stop any bleeding if the worst does happen.

These trimmers are great for home or salon use. A pair of Master Grooming Tools Guillotine Nail Clippers will last a good time too as they are made to last and perform well.

The trimmers are designed with both dog and owner in mind, and come with a lifetime guarantee.

A one-off investment that provides both dog and owner with a top rate service and excellent safety and use, Master Grooming Tools Guillotine Nail Clippers are the solution to your nail trimming needs.
