I clip them at a couple of weeks old. They begin to get quite sharp and can scratch the mother during feeding.

Puppies may be so cute, but they can be harmful to other animals or even childern in the home. Puppies can nip, bite, spread fleas (If outside most of the time), and can scratch.

Nail health is keeping under the nails clean for both men and women and also the nails should be clipped and filed. Most women want longer nails, while men keep theirs short.

If your nails are a bluish color by the "moon" part of the nail this can be an indication of a lack of oxygen to your system and your doctor may test you for heart problems or other problems.

Yes so make sure your guinea pigs get their nails clipped regularly, and when the guinea pig's nails start to curve put the run on concrete so they can scratch away and ware their nails down. Bent nails can be painful so keep an eye out as it makes it easier for guinea pigs to dig out of the run.
