I am demonstrating how to cut a Maltese's nails which have been forgotten about for some time and are majorly overdue.
Steps: to take when cutting nails;
1.) Secure your dog - get someone to hold him / her
2.) Move aside any long hair and anything that may be obstructing your accessibility to the nails
3.) Anticipate where the quick (nerve) ends - pinkish colour closer to the nail bed and aim your nail clippers below the line (give yourself a few extra mm's) you can always go back and take little by little off to neaten up
4.) This is possible with white nails. Black nails are a different story - we will demo that to you soon!
If you are are doing this at home and too nervous rather take your dog to a professional pet salon or your local vet.
