How to trim the nails of a British Toy Snipe? If the dog has long toenails, it will not only affect normal walking, running and other behavioral activities. It is also easy to scratch floors, sofas, cabinets, and family members during the interactive hugging process.

Step 1: Prepare the tools needed to cut the nails of your English Toy Snipe. Such as dog-specific toenail clippers, disinfectant, medicinal cotton balls, hemostatic agents, and hair trimming scissors. This type of medical supplies is mainly for backup. If the English Toy Spaniel is accidentally cut, it can be treated in time.

Step 2: Command the English Toy Snipe not to move, then use your legs to stabilize the dog's body, and grab the English Toy Snipe's toenails with one hand to expose the dog's long toenails. During this process, you can gently stroke the English Toy Spaniel's head so that it can relax and not move nervously.

Step 3: Grasp the English Toy Spaniel's toenails with one hand and hold the toenail clippers with the other hand. The angle between the toenail clippers and the dog's toenails should be 45 degrees, and then the regular toenails should be cut off. (Note that only the transparent part at the front of the toenails can be trimmed. If you are afraid of scissors on the English Toy Snipe's skin, you can trim off the toenails bit by bit).

After trimming one toenail, you can trim the remaining toenails in the same way. If you accidentally cut the skin of your English Toy Snipe and cause bleeding, clean and disinfect it immediately, and then help the dog stop the bleeding. Note that after each nail clipping, the long hair on the toes of the English Toy Snipe must be trimmed cleanly.
