DGG Nail Clippers Small For Dogs Makes Nail Trimming A Pleasant Experience For Your Pet
This safe and easy-to-use device will make trimming your dog’s nails a breeze!
- Dog nails grow continuously, therefore, they must be trimmed to prevent problems from occurring
- Short nails are critical for optimal health, prevention of pain in the toes, and to keep your pal comfortable
- Your dog’s lifestyle will determine how often their nails require trimming - dogs who walk regularly on hard surfaces will need their nails trimmed less often than those who walk on soft surfaces
- The clippers are designed for efficiency, comfort, and ease of use
- The handles are made of soft rubber to ensure a secure, comfortable grip
- The stainless steel blades are sharp for a clean, efficient cut
- There is an adjustable metal safety guard that allows you to choose a desired length of the nail to clip
- The clipper is spring loaded which makes the tool feel fluid in your hand during clipping
- There is also a safety lock that keeps the clipper closed when not in use

Directions for use
- There are 2 types of pet nails – light and dark nails
- Trimming light nails is easier because you can usually see the “quick” inside the nails which is darker in colour
- The goal is to avoid clipping the quick, as this may cause bleeding
- Dark nails are harder to trim because it is more difficult to see the quick clearly
- It is recommended to trim small sections of the nail to avoid trimming the quick
- If you cut the quick/vein, quickly place some ‘styptic powder’ on the end of the bleeding nail
- Styptic powder is an antiseptic clotting agent
- If the bleeding does not stop within a few minutes, contact your vet
- Giving your dog a bath first softens the nails and makes them easier to clip
- To reduce how often you need to trim nails, exercise your dog regularly on hard concrete or outdoors
Note
- Keep your nail clipper sharp and clean for best results
- When the clipper loses its sharp edge, it will need to be replaced
- By keeping the trimmers clean, they should last for multiple years
- When trimming your dog’s nails, only clip the lighter coloured section of their nails – do not clip the darker coloured area (the quick) because this will cause bleeding
- The tool is sharp, use with care
