Nail trimming is extremely important and we do it all by ourselves over here. This kit comes with a nail clipper, styptic powder (stops bleeding if there is an accident), and a reference guide with some great tips. This is my new go-to nail clipper!

(5 different people have scanned up her with the same brand scanner as the chip - her entire body & she is only 11 lbs so not much there anyway - and can't find the original chip. So, make sure you get microchips checked during the annual well check! The microchip company did give a free warranty replacement & thankfully I found out when she was not lost.)

    ReplyDelete
  59. We just moved to a new house. Unfortunately, my dog does not like being left home during the day due to construction noise in the adjacent new houses...I think she worries we are outside without her because she is fine with the noise when someone is home. Maybe the CBD would help her.

    ReplyDelete
  60. I have been feeding Darwin's natural pet products since December 2017 and my dog loves it. She doesn't like her nails trimmed or ground using the nail grinder. I am not sure if ti's because of the clipper and grinder I use or if she just doesn't like it. I would love to try a new nail trimming kit.
