Let Your Dog Do the Work

Hey there, fellow dog lover!
Let’s talk about something we’ve all struggled with: dog nail trims.
You know the drill…
The side-eye when you grab the clippers.
The dramatic escape under the couch.
The guilt-trippy whimpers (“How could you?!”).
What if I told you there’s a fun, stress-free way to keep your pup’s nails in check—no clippers, no drama, and best of all… your dog does most of the work?
In my latest video, I’m sharing a genius DIY hack that’ll make nail care feel like playtime. All you need is a clipboard, sandpaper, and a handful of treats.
👉 Here’s the scoop:
It’s a game-changer for pups who panic during nail trims.
Dogs actually LOVE this training exercise (seriously—it’s like a scratch-off lottery ticket for their paws!).
Works like magic in just 1-2 sessions (even for the most clipper-phobic pooches).

But wait—let’s tackle your burning questions!
🔹 “Does this replace regular trims?”
Nope! Think of it as a bridge while you train your dog to tolerate clippers or a Dremel. But hey, it’s WAY better than wrestling matches!
🔹 “Will the sandpaper hurt their paws?”
Almost never! Dogs naturally use their nails to scratch. Just keep an eye out (but 99% of pups nail it—pun intended 😉).
🔹 “What about the BACK paws?”
Great question! It’s possible (think: stairs + a “paws up” trick), but requires a bit more skill. Check the video for tips!
🔹 “Can I make this hack ~fancy~?”
Absolutely! One student built a deluxe board with Velcro and sandpaper strips. #DIYGoals
