Some groomers use polish on the nails of dogs. This is not your regular nail polish, it dries much faster. Usually poodles get painted nails and bows in their hair.

At our groomers they paint all of the dogs nails. We live in a very cold climate and the polish helps keep the nails healthy. We use clear polish and colored polish, if you do paint your dogs nails get some that is specificly designed for dogs. It dries faster and wont make them sick if they lick it off. Its really easy to do and only takes a few seconds. Good luck!

Sure it is. I do my Standard Poodles nails. I would do my Rotties too, but she doesn't like her feet touched.
I also do several clients dogs nails..usually Poodles. But I've polished other breeds. I have a lady come in once a month with her Rottweiler for a nail trim and a polish.
It's kinda hard to polish nails where the hair lays over the nail, but I do have one owner who has me shave her ShihTzus feet so I can put pink polish on her.
If you are going to do it...just use polish for pets. It's non toxic and dries in seconds.

I like how the girls said yes and the guys said no. I would say it depends on the person and the dog. It would be weird for a guy to paint a dobermans nails but normal for a girl's poodle...

Hehehehe. I paint my terriers nails all the time. He doesn't mind and he likes watching me paint them. You can buy special dog nail polish that is non-toxic for them to breath in and lick.

I had a friend that painted his dogs nails...it was a male dog... I asked him why he did that and he blamed it on his other friend....If the dog was a female it would be cute.

Well I know some pet service places offer painting pets nails. I have never had some one doing it them selves but theirs nothing wrong with it and as long as its a Good colour go ahead.
Hope this helps

We had a dog that would show you when she had her nails painted. Some breeds like it better and it shows off better. They even make dog nail polish that dries faster and coats heavier for them.
