How do you trim really, really long dog nails? General Dog Discussions
I have been trimming my own cat's claws since they were kittens, but I have no experience cutting dog nails. My roommate's dogs are older and very rarely go on walks, so they do not grind their nails down on the cement. Their nails are very long, but my roommate does not want to hurt his dogs by cutting the nails and is too cheap to take them to get them trimmed by a professional. On one of the dogs, the dewclaws have curled so bad, they are starting to cut back into the dog's skin. What is the best way to trim them back down to size once the nails are long and quick has grown out?
