the tip of a nail is kept pointed by keeping in mind the principle that pressure is inversely proportionate to the area in contact. The pointed tip covers a less area, further creating a situation of more pressure, so that we could easily pierce it through the wall.

The lower end of a nail is made pointed to make it easier to penetrate through materials like wood. The pointed end helps to reduce resistance and make driving the nail into the material more efficient. Additionally, the pointed end helps to prevent splitting of the material as the nail is being hammered in.
Nails are made with pointed tips to easily penetrate materials such as wood or metal. The pointed tip allows the nail to be driven into the material with less force, making it easier and quicker to secure two pieces together. Additionally, the sharp point helps to prevent the material from splitting when the nail is being hammered in.
The top pointed tip of the lung is the apex, while the pointed tip on the bottom of the left lung is called the lingula.
When a hammer strikes a nail, the force of the impact generates a high amount of kinetic energy that is transferred to the nail. This energy causes the nail to exert a strong force downward into the wood, overcoming the resistance of the wood fibers. The combination of the hammer's momentum and the mechanical advantage of the nail’s pointed tip allows it to penetrate the wood effectively.
Creates a C Shaped Nail Tip
If you cannot have a groomer clip your dogs nails and need to do it yourself, just take the very pointed tip off to make a blunt end.

A sharp pointed tip
a nail is sharp because the sharper the nail is, the thinner the tip is, which in turn can more easily get in between the molecules of the wood, so you can then push/smash your way into the wood, and as the width of the nail gets wider, it pushes apart the molecules, in turn, clearing the path for the nail to get through. PS. this is just common sense.
For a baby nail file, look for a small size and for a smoother surface than a regular file. There is a package that can be found at Target for around $20 that contains some of them. Make sure they do not have a pointed tip at the end as this could be harmful for the baby.
