Any Q

Trimming Your Dog's Nails Pick up a paw and firmly, but gently, place your thumb on the pad of a toe and your forefinger on the top of the toe on the skin above the nail. . Push your thumb slightly up and backward on the pad, while pushing your forefinger forward. . Clip only the tip of the nail, straight across.


How can you tell where the quick is on a dog's nail?

To view the quick of the nail, gently lift your dog's paw and look at the center of the unclipped nail head-on. If the nail has a small dark circle at the center, it indicates the beginning of the quick of the nail. Do not clip any nail that has a circle in the center as you'll be clipping into the quick.
