Safari Professional Nail Trimmer for Dogs

I got the small/medium size for my 50lb dog thinking he’s medium sized. I got them and they looked so small! I was thinking, great I’ll need to return them and get the large ones. Well, they actually worked perfectly! The stopper helps so much as I was nervous cutting his black nails. I pushed it (more like bent) as far forward towards the clippers as possible as to only trim a little and it was great! You can also move the stopper out of the way or tighten it with a screwdriver and Allen wrench. The only thing I would suggest is to get a nail file as this makes a pretty sharp edge on the nail.

For a small dog with pigmented/black nails that i need to be extra careful with, the guard makes it difficult to see the nail plus the distance between the blade and the cutter is so far that her nails would never be long enough for the guard to be helpful. However! The guard is adjustable and after swinging it out of the way, these are WAY better than the guillotine trimmers I was used to. These are sharper and make a cleaner cut without shattering the nail.

These clippers are supposed to be for small/medium dogs. They are not. When I tried them, they cut entirely too much nail and I clipped the quick, even though I used the nail guard. When I compared them to my old pair (not the same brand although marketed at the same size) the gap between the blades was twice as large, which makes them unusable for my dog.

I just tried got these ''professional'' nail clippers and they are horrible. They do not open all the way and is grindy when you try. to close them. I used to be a professional dog groomer and so I was looking forward to these, but I regret them and will be returning them.

My shih tzu mix is very scared of getting his nails cut and my groomer will not do it, after telling me our vet didn't cut them enough. What fun! I thought that by maybe getting good ones to use on him while relaxed at home would work. Joke's on me. We cut two nails with snarls and growls and we got a scream and a bite on the third one. I really wish I could use them!

I only gave this nail clipper a 2 star because the description states for small to medium dogs. I mainly groom mini and small dogs and I was expecting a smaller sized clipper. I would not have purchased this item if the true description stated medium sized dogs.

I bought these to start clipping my German Shorthaired Pointers nails at home rather than making a vet trip every 6 weeks. They were VERY easy to use which is a must have... Trying to keep a 9 month old GSP to be still is not the easiest task, but these helped the process go by quicker. I also loved the guard. This is my first dog, so I was definitely afraid of cutting too short... The guard helped ease that fear a little.

My dog is a house dog and we talk her ou to walk daily but still, her nails grew out too long and our house has tile so whenever she would run she would slip so and I got this hoping it would help and it did.

I got the small/medium and they fit perfect in my hand and are perfect for my medium sized dog who weighs around 35 to 37 pounds and at first I thought they were too small for him until I used them and they are perfect.

I bought this to replace my old nail clipper that was dull and chipped my cat's nails. This one is so much sharper and gets the job done faster. I move the nail guard aside to get a better angle on her nails. She's happier and I'm happier.
