Pooch Pedicures Made Easy!
My poor old spaniel is getting up there in years. Blind as a bat, going deaf, and his hips are giving out. All he has left is his appetite and tummy rubs. Taking him to the groomer is stressful for him–and sheer anguish for me. I can’t shave his fur in the summer, but I can spare him the visits just for nail trimming…now that I’ve discovered the Safari Professional Pet Nail Trimmer.The clippers are surprisingly easy to use, the cut is clean and precise, and you don’t need tremendous pressure to cut straight through. I was afraid of hitting the dreaded quick and making my little guy bleed, but a quick check on Google for nail cutting tips (and simple but excellent instructions on the packaging of these clippers) made that a non-problem too. Just look at the underside of the dog’s nail. Even on blackest nails, you can see the pinker or lighter part of the nail, which is the quick. Place the clippers a bit above that (in the direction away from the foot pad) and you’re fine. My first time clipping Stanley nails was a cinch. And believe me, this dog has feet the size of saucers and nails to match. Thick as pinky fingers.I waited until Stanley was sleeping (he has never been a dog with lightening like reflexes…even as a youngster, people meeting him for the first time always thought he was dead, took a paw, checked to see where the “quick” ended and ‘snip’ — that fast, that simple. About halfway through the pedicure he woke up, but not sensing any food in the immediate area, dozed back off again so I could complete the job.My niece has a little poodle who is also pushing the envelope in terms of age. However, her dog doesn’t have my Stanley’s sweet disposition and is on the No Fly List at most of the groomers in town. She asked me if I’d do the dog’s nails for her. I guess she figured I’m older and have less to live for. Anyway, we got a big pile of treats ready. My niece kept tossing them into the dog’s mouth, distracting her, while I went to work on the nails. This is the same trick my manicurist uses with me and it worked equally well with the dog.If you’ve been considering trimming your dog’s nails yourself, these are a very good tool. Dogs’nails grow very quickly; they need frequent trimming. The nails are connected to the leg bones and when they get too long, can jar the animal and make walking uncomfortable–particular in dogs with hip problems and/or arthritis and other joint issues. These affordable clippers cost about what a single nail clipping does at the groomers, so it’s money well spent.

Good Clippers
A few years ago my family and I moved from the city to a farm. In the city my dog’s nails were never a problem because she got all her exercise on pavement, which kept them naturally filed down. However, after moving to the farm I began to notice that her nails were getting quite long, with no concrete around to keep them filed.I knew nothing about trimming a dog’s nails so I purchased a cheap pair of clippers and went to work. The cheap clippers were difficult to use: they were not very sharp and the experience was bad for me and my dog.I finally realized that I would need to spend a little more money to get a good pair of clippers. That’s when I found the Safari Professional Nail Trimmer. When I received the trimmers I was immediately pleased. I could tell right away the blades were much sharper than the cheap pair I had, they cleanly cut through the nails very easily. My favorite thing is the “safety stop” behind the blades. You just put the trimmer over the dog’s nail until it hits the safety stop and make your cut. No more guessing where the quick is.This is a good product and nail trimming time has become much easier and less stressful for me and my dog.

My vet was impressed, but said there too small for my dog (20 kg)So better size information would have been more helpful.

Buen producto, tengo una perrita schnauzer y le puedo corta muy bien sus uñas, tienen buen filo y no la lastiman, son de buen tamaño.. se las recomiendo para razas pequeñas y medianas.

To be totally honest, I was not expecting much from these but I took a chance. These are not the first clippers I have tried, I must have tried 6-8 different ones prior to this from various pet stores (most more expensive than these). My dogs nails are very difficult to cut, they are boxers so they have very thick nails.Most clippers would damage the nail and never provide a good clean cut – frustrating for both me and the dogs. However much to my surprise, these were VERY easy to use, and provided a perfect clean cut every time. My girl – who by the way never likes her nails cut – let me cut her nails without a fit (which is HUGE because I usually need to wrestle her into position to let me cut her nails). I was able to cut all her nails within the time it usually took me to do about 3 nails on her, colour me impressed!Very sharp, very easy to use, nail guard is sturdy, good size, not awkward to hold & you can pick them up for a fraction of what regular retail stores charge for similar products (which may I add do not work nearly as well). Great value and I can now look forward to cutting my dogs nails rather than dreading it. Thank you!
