I just may have to get one of these. It used to take my fiance and I both to hold down my furbaby just to trim his nails and by the time we were done...30min had already gone by and we would be in a sweat! Well he has now calmed down some so now I can do it by myself but it takes a while and he still fights me a lil. I never cut him in the quick when my fiance helped hold but when I started doin myself after he calmed down...I have accidently quicked a few but not many and not badly. However, this last time..he hollared and I thought i quicked him and I almost did but it never actually bled but you could see the quick. Then all of a sudden there is blood on my shirt...i check the toe..still not bleeding...check another paw and there is a toenail bleeding that i had quicked and he didnt even squeal about! So i felt really really awful cause he was wanting to play and run and i was trying to keep him calm cause the more active he was...the more it would try to bleed so i tried to hold him calm and put quick stop (blood stopper) on it and waited a while and then he was free to play. But after that..I feel bad. I have a nail grinder but the noise FREAKS him out. Does anyone know if this peticure is quiet???? If so...ill prob just have to get one!
