You will need: Nail clippers or grinder and Kwick Stop
Each nail has a vein which travels down the inside of the nail. This vein is referred to as the quick. Regular trimming of the nail helps keep the quick back and the nail can be kept much shorter. The Kwick Stop is used to stop any minor bleeding caused by cutting the nail too short. If this happens place a small amount of Kwick Stop to the end of the nail. This can cause a slight stinging sensation to some dogs. If this should happen, speak reassuringly to your pet and continue the trimming process. It is important that you remain calm so as not to frighten the dog.
