If a dog's nails go untrimmed for too long, they face ingrown nails or very uncomfortable and painful walking. It can also snag materials like clothing and cause injury to humans and other animals in the household.

How short should I cut my dogs nails?

You should clip your dogs nails only a little bit at a time. There is something called a "quick" in dog's nails. If you cut into the quick then the nail will start to bleed and it will have hurt the dog, to a point to that they dog won't let you clip their nails anymore. If you clip the nails a little bit say once a week, the quick will start to recede, making it safer to clip your dogs nails without hurting them.


How do you determine how short to clip a dogs nails?

In my experience, a dog's nails are just like ours - the 'quick' will be a darker color than the grown nail. Just clip the 'white' portion, being careful not to get too close to the darker 'quick'. If you do, I'm sure your dog will let you know - plus, it will draw blood.
