Great tip about using the nylon stockings.

Thanks Pamela, glad you liked the tip 😊 also a great way to paint their nails without getting the colour on their coats😊

I’ve been scared to trim my poodle’s black nails because I can’t see the quick. I’ve started to groom her using your helpful videos so now to try the nails. Wish me luck. X

Hi Pauline, I am so pleased our grooming tutorials are helping you. Please let me know how you go🌸

I accidentally trip my puppy 😢nails and it bled I put some flour on it but do I need to wash the blood off and put antiseptic ?

[@MelanieNewmanSalonEssentials]

I am sorry i just seen your question, i hope the flour worked to control the bleeding. Once the bleeding has stoped i then wipe the toe area. Pleae let me know how you went with it? 💖

Here's a great tip. If you trim a nail too far and it bleeds, ordinary white sugar works very well as it's a natural coagulant, and everyone will have sugar at home.

Yes, great tip sugar works well also :)

Dash is way too calm here. You need to do a video of trimming a Scottie's nails! We use a dremel which makes it a lot easier, and it has a light in the end of it which helps to see the quick. The stocking is a great tip I must say.

Lol, we can do a demo on Scottie’s nails, we will organise a bathing a coat maintenance video for the Scottish terrier 😊
