Prepare nail clippers. Corgi’s nails are hard and have a very special shape. Common scissors cannot meet their needs. Therefore, be sure to prepare professional pet scissors first. When trimming Corgi's nails, be careful not to injure Corgi's claws and pads.
Before trimming Corgi’s nails, you must first look at Corgi’s nails. First, carefully observe the color of the nails. Generally speaking, the transparent part of the first half of Corgi's nails can be cut off. If you're still unsure, try a little trimming.
Corgi’s nails are very hard, so you have to be decisive when cutting them at the end. Because when corgis find out that you want to cut their nails, they will pull back. Never use scissors to pinch the Corgi's nails when it is retracting its claws, as this will make it feel very uncomfortable.
Because the hair on the soles of the feet is too long and slips easily, you can trim the hair on the soles of the feet while trimming your nails. For Corgi, the friction between the soles of the feet and the ground is very important. Sometimes nails that are too long will curl back into the flesh, so be careful.
Depending on the speed of nail growth, Corgi’s nails need to be trimmed every 7 to 10 days. When pruning, hold the front of the Corgi's toes firmly, confirm the location of blood vessels and avoid them. After cutting, use a file to round off the sharp corners.
Sometimes no matter how careful you are in cutting, you may accidentally cut a blood vessel and cause bleeding. At this time, as long as the bleeding is stopped correctly and calmly, it will not only prevent the Corgi from bleeding more, but also reduce the pain in the shortest time.
