A detailed explanation of this article: What is the method to make a dog cut his nails properly

Dogs are basically unwilling to do any grooming projects that parents do for their dogs at first, but in the end they are forced to do it several times. Later, they get used to it, just like cutting their nails for dogs. The first time the dog will not submit easily no matter what. Only after the parents try their best to cut it can they have the effect of cutting it in the future. So why don’t the dog like to cut their nails for parents? Let’s learn about the methods of cutting their nails for dogs.

Phenomenon

We who love dogs often like to say hello to dogs in human ways, that is, shake hands. But maybe you have found that when you hold the bottom of the dog's paws, it will most likely not respond; when you touch the top of the paws, it may retreat; if you stick to the toes of the dog, it will express its desire to be alone for a while. This habit would not cause any contradiction, except when trimming the toenails.  

Reasons

Dogs have very tough foot pads, and the tissue at the bottom is 1/4 inch thick, but the top and toes are covered with nerve ends, which is very sensitive, so they don't like to be fiddled with.

Countermeasures

1. When cutting the toenails, place the dog on a higher platform, such as the lid of the washing machine. The slippery surface forces the dog to work hard to maintain balance and cannot concentrate on fighting with you.

2. If your dog can accept strangers, please do it with trained strangers. The arrival of strangers and changes in the environment will make it impossible for them to guess their purpose. In confusion, it is easier to give up self-defense and accept management.

3. In the childhood of a dog, touch its paws frequently to make it change its awareness of protection for its paws as soon as possible.

4. Usually, put the scissors in the place where the dog can reach, instead of taking them out when planning to trim them. Give the dog a chance to approach this mysterious guy and gradually end his fear of scissors.

5. If cutting the toenails is a painful disaster for your dog, just cut only one paw a week instead of forcing it to trim four at a time.
