It's very difficult to clip my dog's nails... First of all, the quicks are very long, so there's not much to cut. And I don't want to try cutting the nail right up next to the quick b/c these nail clippers suck... They're basically just breaking the nail, not cutting it... I'm terrified of cutting the quick b/c I know if I do, my dog will scream so loudly, it'd give me a heart attack! xP I've cut them maybe 3 or 4 times before, and he's about 7 months old now. I just got done reading about nail clipping. I've read that if you clip the nail right up next to the quick, it will eventually recede and make it shorter, if you clip the nails every few days... But I can't clip it right up next to it. I've also read a big article and 'how to do' thing about dremiles (sp?). But it looked way too complicated, not to mention, I probably couldn't afford one. And the vet here is no professional. He just clips off the edges. And I don't know of any dog groomers... Hmm... Maybe PetSmart. ^_^
