What dog parents are saying
Brilliant for keeping dogs nails short when they dont like nail clippers etc. Also has some replacement sandpaper. I have a large dog and the sandpaper lasts a very long time b4 needing to be replaced. Highly recommend.
She used to bolt at the sight of clippers. Two weeks with the board and she does her own front paws while I make coffee.
My rescue won’t let anyone near his paws. This is the first thing in two years that hasn’t ended in a standoff.
Our senior dach does his fronts himself now. No more dreading the monthly wrestle he actually trots over for it.
Didn’t expect a board to fix nail time. The treat drawer is the whole trick haha she thinks it’s a game
Quiet, no quick to catch and he likes it. Wish we’d found it before all the vet-visit trims.

Questions people actually ask
Will it work on back paws?
Most dogs file their front nails happily and need a hand with the back ones. Prop the board flat on the floor for rear paws.
The best way is to distract them with a treat and setup the board against where they stand.
How long does it take to teach?
Most dogs get the idea in one or two short sessions. Treat, let them paw at it, treat again. Never push the paw down for them.
What if my dog ignores it?
That usually means the sessions are too long or the treat isn't worth it. Two minutes and something smelly beats ten minutes and a biscuit.
When do I replace the sandpaper?
When it stops feeling gritty under your thumb. Heavy users get a few months a sheet.
