🦮 How to Trim Your Dog's Nails Safely! 🐾

1. Gather the Right Tools:

- Dog nail clippers or a grinder
- Styptic powder (in case of any bleeding)
- Treats for positive reinforcement!

2. Identify the Quick:
In light-colored nails, you’ll see a pinkish area – this is the quick. Avoid cutting into this! For dark nails, trim a little at a time, looking for a dark spot in the center after each cut, which indicates you're close to the quick.

3. Hold Your Dog’s Paw Firmly:
Ensure your dog is calm and comfortable. Hold their paw gently but firmly to prevent sudden movements.

4. Trim Slowly and Steadily:
Clip at a 45-degree angle, trimming small bits at a time. Be patient and reward your dog after each nail with a treat!

5. In Case of Bleeding:
If you accidentally cut the quick, apply styptic powder to stop the bleeding.

Regular nail trimming helps keep your dog comfortable and prevents joint issues! If you're unsure, visit a professional groomer or vet.
