This is the one area of owning a dog that I find is just awful - trying to keep nails short enough with the old-style clipper but the new gadgets for filing them down have helped me tremendously so I am fine with it now. And I have caused 3 nail bleeds over the years so I know how you feel. When it happened to my dogs, I kept imagining how much it must have hurt to have that cuticle cut like that and just got the Willies. So I guess I will always use the Petipaws type things from now on. Try not to feel too bad - you would never have done that if you could have helped it. Your baby will forgive.
I have the pediapaws too and used it before and had success but then I didnt use it for a while then my yorkies wouldnt tolerate it. I agree it is wonderful if you can get them used to it
