You can usually ask your dog groomer to do it for you, but you can also do it yourself with scissors or nail clippers. Just be careful you don't hurt him/her, and that when they fidget that you don't cut them instead of their nails!

The Bedlington Terrier was developed in the country of Northumberland, England. The original name for the Bedlington Terrier was the Rothbury Terrier, named after the district of Rothbury located on the English border. About 1825 the breed was renamed the Bedlington Terrier after the Bedlington Mining Shire. The breed was a prized hunting dog of foxes, hares and badgers. It was also used as a vermin hunter by the miners of Bedlington. The miners exploited its gameness as a fighting dog in the pits and hunters used them as retrievers. Both the Otterhound and Dandie Dinmont Terrier are possible contributors to the breed. Some breeders, especially those in England will cross Bedlingtons with Whippets and Greyhounds to produce what they call Lurchers.

Show-trimmed Bedlington Terriers look like lambs. However, Bedlingtons from working lines look more like Irish Wolfhounds (except for the size).
