Many dog breeds are recommended to cut regularly. There are haircuts:
model, strictly according to the standard of the breed,
household – to the taste and discretion of the owner and groomer,
Hygienic – to maintain a neat type of animal.
Actually, the hygienic part is in any variety of haircuts. First of all, you need to process paws. The dog needs to be turned on the back, or on the side. Or the animal stands on the table, and the master takes each paw in turn. Scissors need to carefully cut the wool between the fingers, as well as in the center of the foot between the fingers and the pillow.

Then trim the claws. If the claw is light, with a clear border – everything is simple – cut off no further than the bright part of the claw. If the claw is dark, then cut off a little earlier the place where the claw bends. This procedure should be carried out at least once a month. There are two reasons for this.

Firstly, if the dog walks little and does not grind the claws, then it is inconvenient for her to walk with long claws. Secondly, the longer the claws do not cut, the closer to the edge of the claw the blood vessels germinate and eventually even cutting off a small piece of clawe can lead to bleeding.
When the fingers and claws are ready, put the paw on the table and cut off the excess sticking wool around the foot. You will get the so -called round “cat paw”.
