Product DescriptionDoes your dog go ballistic when you whip out those nail clippers?
You can’t really blame your pup — a few bad experiences getting your nail cut to the quick (your dog’s nail cuticle) and bleeding would probably make you squirmy too!
The good news is that there is an alternative to dog nail clippers – specifically, nail grinders!
Why you need to choose dog nail grinder?
1.Good For Unsteady Hands.
If you feel your hands are not steady enough to clip your dog’s nails, you may find a nail grinder easier to use. You’ll still need to hold your dog still, but you likely won’t need the same level of precision to aim the grinder as you would require with clippers.
2.Helpful For Fearful Dogs.
If your dog has had a few bad experiences with nail clippers, he may quite terrified of round 2 with the clippers (unfortunately it’s fairly easy to cut your dog’s quick and cause him to bleed – especially if he has dark nails). Grinders are easier to use and let owners easily avoid cutting into the quick.
3.You’ll Get Smooth Edges.
A grinder allows you to smooth the edges of your dog’s nails, which looks nicer and can also prevent them from snagging their nail on carpeting or other materials. Having smoother nails is also handy if your dog’s a jumper (ouch, my legs), or a scratcher.
4. Reduces Cracking & Pinching.
Clippers pinch down on your dog’s cuticle while cutting, which can end up hurting your dog even if you do not hit the cuticle. The pressure from clippers can, in some cases (although not too common), can even cause your dog’s nails to crack!
How to Use Dog Nail Grinder
Step 1
First, show your dog the grinder and give a reward (like some stinky, yummy treats).
Place rewards near the grinder (when it’s off) to get the dog sniffing and close to the grinder
Step 2
Next, hold the grinder in your hand and quickly turn it on and off, followed by rewards. You’re getting your dog used to the sound of the grinder, which can be a bit scary for them at first
Step 3
Next, turn grinder on for a longer period and reward. Finally, turn the grinder on and tap your dog’s nail (just for a moment) and praise.
