Let your dog file their own nails..REALLY WORKED

• Kara Posted : 12/16/2006 8:27:56 AM How do you do the back with this method, though? Could you train them to scratch backwards with their hind legs? Somewhat lite the motion some dogs do to mark? 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• tia2 Posted : 12/16/2006 9:20:25 AM I just plan on clipping the back nails.  My question is what do you do for dogs like mine that aren't scratching past "one paw, treat  one paw, treat.  This could make my boys fat!  lol  My one dog has rubbed his pad more than his nail and I think it's tender now.   I won't give up though...this stuff is pretty abrasive I see the potential! 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• theresamat Posted : 12/17/2006 9:33:01 PM Tia, here is the best pics I could get. This was after about 1 wk. of her filing herself. I have not been able to train to do the back nails either. The link I posted says that she has her dogs do the back nails too. But so far no luck here. Like I said though, I do still have to clip the dewclaws, but the front nails are smooth and short. And the front nails are the ones that Mattie is most sensitive about being clipped, so thats half the battle for me. 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• grab01 Posted : 12/21/2006 1:17:57 AM do they scratch up their pads as well? 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available. Hey, it's way more fun when you sign up or log in Connect With Connect With Sign Up Login
• theresamat Posted : 12/21/2006 7:51:56 PM Mattie has been using this for a few weeks now and it has not bothered her pads at all. I have been keeping a close eye on them, and I dont see any abrasions at all. She does not act like pawing the board hurts her at all. 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• sandra johnson Posted : 1/20/2007 6:51:31 PM sounds like a lot of trouble and I would be concerned about the pads getting raw. However, use whatever works! 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• Bloodhound Posted : 1/20/2007 9:42:42 PM Thanks for the tip will be sure to give it a try. It sucks having to pay the groomer to do it every couple of weeks because they dont like their nails clipped at all 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.
