| I don't but I think it's sooo cute! OPI makes some polish just for dogs. I know you can get them from Petedge.com and in some pet shops. They have remover, top coat etc.

| I don't because the hair covers thier toenails anyway. I think it is cute on Chihuahauhs and poodles, and I think it would be cute on yorkies too but on Hannah you wouldn't be able to see it and Gracie wouldn't be still long enough and my husband would kill me if I did Bentleys. |

| I have some of this, it is called Pawlish. It dries quickly and usually only takes one coat, so it won't smudge. I use it when Tina's hair is shorter and she is in a particularly agreeable mood.

| It's too difficult to paint the nails on a long-haired dog. It works much better on short haired dogs or poodles that have their feet shaved.

| I've mostly only seen poodles and chihuahuas. But when I worked at a dog boutique/grooming salon, I remember painting a pom's nails and some shih tzu's nails. The shih tzu's were a pain in the butt to do because their feet were so hairy! I remember one time I told them I refused to pain any more long-haired dog's nails..LOL Lacy's never had her nails painted...I'm just not a huge fan of it myself. We'll just stick to our collars, bows, and clothes

I Love My Lil' Punkin's Donating Member | I've painted my Mini Dachshund's before, she looked so cute LOL. However, I have never painted my Yorkie's and would never be able to because of all that hair

| I have wanted to but wondered if she eats on her feet, it would be bad for her.

| I do Ellie's and we use dog nail polish from ebay. I poke each nail through a plastic grocery bag so the hair is out of the way.

| The only time Rosie's nails were painted was by her breeder. She marked Rosie's nails so she would know which one is mine |

| Personally it is overboard for me to paint dog's nail. But it is your dog so you can do whatever please you and your dog. I just won't do for my dog. I've seen on poodle but not on yorkie yet. I think the hair will cover so you can't see well. Buut I would like to see some picture if anyone got one!!! It is cute but it is just too much for me.... (I'm already called "dog crazy girl" in the office...) |
