Anyone who owns a dog knows that the dog’s nails need to be trimmed regularly, so how do you trim the nails of a Teddy dog? Of course, if the owner is free to take him out for a long walk every day, and exercises enough, the nails will be polished by himself. , then there is no need to prune. However, most dogs are kept indoors for a long time and need to be trimmed regularly. Trimming Teddy dog ​​nails is not only to prevent scratches during play but also to make it easier for the dog to walk.

But don’t you think it’s a bit troublesome to have to go to the pet store every time you want to cut your nails? You can cut it yourself but you’re afraid of cutting it crookedly. Because there are blood vessels in the dog's paws, if you accidentally cut it, it will bleed. Although it won't hurt much, there is a possibility that your dog will never let you cut it again. Don’t worry, I will tell you how to cut your Teddy’s nails based on my own experience.

Let me talk about my magic nail clipper first! This is it! Some friends are surprised, this is obviously a nail clipper for cats, but can it also be used to clip dogs?

Yes, I use this to trim the nails of my Teddy dog! In fact, if you have a Bichon Frize, Chihuahua, Pomeranian or other small dog, you can also use this. The advantage is that it is compact, durable, flexible and wear-resistant, and can be used by both cats and dogs.

Now let’s focus on the magic of finger scissors~~!

1. Grasp the dog's paw. If it is a long-haired dog, cut off or smooth the long hair to ensure that the complete nails can be seen.

2. Use the nail clippers above to trim perpendicularly to the nails. When cutting, you should do it in one go. Don't cut too much at one time. The picture below shows an approximate trimming length.

3. If your Teddy is more able to sit still, you can also use a file to file the trimmed areas. Use a dog nail file, as the human nail file is time-consuming and labor-intensive.

4. Some dogs also have dewclaws near their ankles, which also need to be trimmed. There are also dogs whose dewclaws have been amputated since childhood and do not need to be trimmed. The method of trimming is the same as trimming other nails, but it may be much longer than other nails, so it needs to be trimmed slightly more.

5. Take a look at the last cut nails. They are very thick, so be sure to use special pet scissors and the blades must be sharp.
