Signs Your Dog Needs a Nail Trim

Clicking on Hard Floors

If you can hear your dog's nails clicking on hard surfaces, it's time for a trim.

Nails Touching the Ground

When standing, your dog's nails should not touch the ground when they're at the proper length.

Snagging on Fabric

Nails that catch on carpet, bedding, or clothing are too long and need trimming.

Altered Gait

If your dog is walking differently or seems uncomfortable, overgrown nails may be the cause.

Curling Nails

Nails that begin to curl are severely overgrown and can grow into the paw pad if left untrimmed.

Paw Licking

Excessive licking or chewing at the paws can indicate discomfort from long nails.
