I hope you have better luck at your Petsmart, I took Pheobe on my local one and she has two nail bleeding I was so and for my baby, even at the vet too, so we bought the Deluxe nail clipper with nail guard to prevent overcutting and so far so good, I file her nail too after is clipp, also I purchased a powder at the vet to stop the bleed but i haven't use it yet , also if can search her e other threats regarding this matter

I have 2 drama queens about getting nails cut. I wrap them in towels like little Mummies, take out ONE foot at a time and make sure they are facing me so I can talk them thru it. It worked for Cheri yesterday better than ever.

it only took 2-1/2 years to get to this point but it was the first NON wrestling match and I was pretty proud of her. No screams of drama - no fighting me and the best part - I cut ALL 20 nails in one sitting

YAY for Cheri !!!

ps....when you have a very YOUNG puppy - the nails are paper thin and you can use an emery board. Only a few swipes though...you can go too short very quickly
