    The only video I’ve seen where the dog wasn’t pre trained before the video. This is so much more relevant to how our puppy is reacting!

    Thanks for the video. It was very helpful in assisting trimming my German Shepherd puppy's nails. I didn't think of using regular nail trimmers.

    I just did this with my jack russell pup...(I had to distract her with a peanut butter stuffed kong) and her nails are much shorter, but I was too scared of cutting too short so it's a bit long..and sharp.
    Any tips?

    • @ApbfDog
      @ApbfDog  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Peanut butter kongs are great for positive reinforcement for nail trims! We can definitely understand the concern for hurting your dog. Try getting her used to a Dremel. Dremels are such handy tools - they can round out the sharp edges from cutting and help you grind down a little more of the nail safely. Here's another quick video that may help: th-cam.com/video/atL9Lo-CbaY/w-d-xo.html

  • @janegraham6144
    @janegraham6144 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    My pup is a Shih Tzu, 10 weeks old
    I'm terrified of hurting her, Some of her nails are ALL black aswell, so I can't see any white tips.
    She's scratched me in play and drawn blood, her nails are like razors.
    I've tried everything t keep her still. If I hurt her she'll loose trust in me, I can't have that.
    Please advise x

    Now, if I could just sit cross-legged like that. My body doesn't bend that way anymore. A vet tech hit the quick in my mini Aussie's nail one time and it was a battle just to touch her paw after that.

    Is it safe to clip my puppies nails with a human nail clipper

    • @ApbfDog
      @ApbfDog  4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      If you have a small dog or puppy than yes! Human nail clippers are too small for large dogs and put too much pressure on the nails but are great for cats and puppies.

    You make that look so easy.
    I heard you say about the different color at end of toenails. That's great... however, my dogs AND new puppy all have full black color &, as is the case, so are their toenails.
    I'm really kind of scared to trim them since I'm unable to actually see their blood line that runs through all dogs/puppies toenails.
    I'd appreciate your input. Being on a fixed income being 69 years old, it would cost a fortune to get all three done at a doggie spa.

    • @amylynn826
      @amylynn826 ปีที่แล้ว

      Research how to train bite inhibition. Puppy mouthing is general ok and they need to learn how to play bite without pressure, so help your pup to do that. When my pup bites too hard I let out a yelp like a puppy (or maybe a bit louder and deeper like a mama) and let my hand go limp or being it away. Once they start understanding appropriate bite pressure you can start to train them to bite less during play. I also always have something else for them to chew on available - a rope, kong, plushie toy, a stick etc so I can redirect the bites to something that they are allowed to go nuts on.

  • @jahzara.d
    @jahzara.d 6 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    I feel like the way you are handling that puppy might be painful to it. It doesn't seem to like it and, in my opinion, you are holding it kinda rough and that might be the reason it's whining and biting and wriggling so much. This might not be true I just wanted to bring it to your attention

    • @ApbfDog
      @ApbfDog  6 ปีที่แล้ว +18

      Royalty J - no worries - we would never handle a puppy in a way that would cause it pain. Puppies often struggle because they are disinterested, anxious, or trying to engage in play rather than the current activity. This little puppy in particular benefited greatly from learning to be patient, in a calm frame of mind, and now we have an adult dog who is not fearful or impulsive. He turned out great with all of his handling and training. Best!

    • @SiWang95
      @SiWang95 5 ปีที่แล้ว +13

      Royalty J - You obviously have no idea how to train dogs and would know that rough handling in the early stages of the dogs life in crucial for the dog's stability. Imagine a toddler coming up to trained dog and pulled it's tail, the trained dog will tolerate it because it is USE to it. Now imagine a toddler pulling on a dog that hasn't been rough handled, they will most like not like it and probably bite as a reaction to stop the toddler. At the end of the day, the puppy cries because it's a puppy, they are perfectly fine with rough handling.
