Nail Clipping

At Dog Grooming Swansea we specialise in catering to animals with particular nail clipping needs. This process can easily be traumatising for any animal as it feels as though they are giving up complete control to a stranger. Just like humans, your animal's nails are consistently growing and requiring clipping. Whether in a dog or cat, the proper clipping on their nails is very important. And ignored paw with an overgrown nail can cause excruciating pain to any animal. We advise that our clients conduct a regular check up on their animals, including their nails, at least twice a week. This should be easily conducted while petting your animal and casually looking for any abnormalities including dirt, ticks, cuts, or overgrown dangerous nails. ​

Proper Nail Length
There is much speculation over proper nail length throughout domesticated animals. Something you may already know or possibly are on aware of is that in our animal's nails are very sensitive nerves. These nerves camouflage themselves to the colour of our animal's nail. Because of this when self-grooming your animal we advise that you perceive with extreme caution to avoid conflict and harm on your animal. Our team of dog groomers Swansea are certified professional groomers with years of experience in handling all temperaments and all sizes of pets. 

Quick
We all love our fluffy companions, which is exactly why we avoid causing pain to them by any means necessary. This means educating yourself and anyone else who comes into frequent contact with your animal on what exactly is the ‘quick‘. The quick is essentially the part of your animal’s nail that is living flesh. in our experience, many clients of ours initially shy away from the task of nail grooming in fear that they could potential he causes harm to their animals. However, being educated and understanding the intricacies of your pet’s means is all part of being a dog or cat owner.

Puppy Nail Tripping 
Any form of grooming with a puppy needs to be done with the utmost and absolute care for their state of mind. These are brand new, baby animals that are extremely delicate and sensitive. Unlike a full-grown animal, a puppy requires only monthly maintenance for their nails. Unfortunately, if you avoid your puppies nails this could potentially cause your animal to miss place his or her footing causing miss placement or the nail to break if it were to catch onto something. Should you ever be unsure with any aspect of grooming your puppy please do not hesitate to call our team for any tips and tricks. We offer a full hassle-free service that includes regular grooming of your animal however should you want to undergo the process yourself we are happy to provide you with the tools and information necessary to do so.

How Often Should your Dogs Nails Be Trimmed?
1-2 months. Our team of dog grooming professionals receives questions such as this frequently. We are glad to be able to ride years of qualifications to this craft an arm our clients, friends and family with the information required to help their animals. The dog’s nails should be trimmed or clipped at least every 1 to 2 months. However, regular inspection should be done every 2 to 3 weeks.
