Hello! I'm looking for an inexpensive set of clippers for Mia. She has, what seems like, a double coat of hair now and since I don't have the means to take her to a groomer right now, I want to give her a nice trim since it's getting warmer, and beca
I'm a fan of both the Andis and Oster clippers for dogs. Other brands that I've tried do not seem to have sufficient power to work through a dense coat. Be sure to use either a longer blade or guards to cut Mia's coat to your desired length. Personally, I like using a 3 3/4 blade for my fluffy pup. Hope this helps!

I have been reading your tip on how to get your dog to have their claws cut without any problems. Part of the advice is to let your dog get used to the buzzing of the clippers on the dogs paw. I've never seen any clippers that buzz when cutting the c
Thank you for submitting your question regarding nail trimming. There are two ways to clip a dog's nails. The first is what you mentioned with actual nail clippers. The other is using an electric dremel to file the nails down. This is likely what the article was referring to with allowing the pet to get used to the noise. I hope this information helps!

Have a spunky new rescue chihuahua mix and she is skittish. So much so she will resist any efforts to trim her nails. We have 4 dogs so I have trimmed nails hundreds of times--but with Ricki Ricardo, no luck. I sit on the floor and flip them over
Congratulations on your new dog Ricky Ricardo! In my opinion, there’s not really a superior nail trimmer but for small breed dogs, the AKC does recommend the guillotine type as compared to the scissor type. Try conditioning Ricky to have a positive association with the clippers. This can be managed with high value treats and clicker training. Basically you start by rewarding her every time she looks at the clippers (click. treat). Then you gradually bring the clippers closer and touch her with the clippers. Every time she gets a reward. Then you slowly progress to clipping 1 nail (click. treat). And so on and so forth. It may not always be easy but it’s a start and hopefully she will allow it to happen. I hope this is helpful and please feel free to post any additional questions.

What would be the best tools for grooming a short haired dog (Amstaff)?
Great question! You can use a slicker hair brush to remove excess hair and to keep shedding to a minimum. I would also recommend getting a medium bristle brush. You can get these brushes in a pet store or online.

Any advice on how to take care of my dog's nails? How often do I cut them and how I cut them? Do you have any recommendations for nail maintenance and other products? Much appreciated.
How often you need to cut depends on their length and your dog's lifestyle. If she spends time outside walking on a hard surface then she may wear them down naturally. If she is mostly inside then she will probably need them cut more frequently. If she has white nails then you should be able to visualize the quick and should be able to judge when they need to be cut. You want to avoid the quick as cutting the quick is painful to the dog. The only product you really need is a sharp pair of nail trimmers appropriate for her size. Here is a good article about trimming nails in dogs. https://www.google.com/amp/s/mobile.petcoach.co/amp/article/how-to-trim-your-dog-s-nails-in-5-easy-steps
