| I don't use any clippers. I just use a heavy duty emery board (black ones two to a package at Wal-Mart, and file the nails after their bath. This way I can keep them short and not have to wait till they grow enough to cut, or worry about cutting too short or not short enough. |

| That's a good idea! No need to fear clipping off too much by doing it that way.

| I use the regular dog clippers and trim the tips off once a week. Between clipping and walking outdoors, their nails stay short.

| I use the groomer's clippers! I can't stand doing it! I'd much rather pay my money and not worry!
