The Trick to Trimming Black Nails Without Making Them Bleed!
First, you need to choose the right nail clipper. I have these two types!
I choose the smaller one for this
To keep the nail clipper from moving, use your finger as a barrier
Trim the nail little by little
When you start to see a dark spot inside the nail..
That's your sign to stop cutting
Here's the example a little sped up with his other paw
For the front paws, you can use this position to get a better view of the nails.
If you notice that the nail is still long even after you see the dark spot, you still shouldn't keep trimming
That means the quick is long, not that the nail is too long
Bye
