If you have hardwood floors you’re looking to salvage, cutting your dog’s nails can be a big priority in your life. But it isn’t always an easy proposition. Dogs like to howl and wiggle their way out of the process, so it is important to follow some of the following tips to make the endeavor a bit easier (on everyone involved).

-Start young. If your dog is used to the process from puppyhood, he is likely to put up with some nail clipping with minimal complaint.

-Use the proper equipment. Dog nail clippers are not the place to scrimp in your budget. Invest in a quality pair of clippers that will cut quickly and cleanly.

-Be conservative. Don’t cut too much. This is the most important rule! If you hit the “quick,” it will cause your dog a lot of pain. Cutting a little bit at a time more often is a far better plan than cutting a bunch at once and risking that painful snip.
