What’s the difference? The nails are also too long when they start to turn sideways. That usually happens when the nails are so long that they can no longer grow towards the ground. There are three main types of dog nail clippers to choose from: guillotine clippers, plier-style clippers, or a grinder. Unlike the other types of clipper, a grinder uses a rough, spinning surface to sand down dogs’ nails, rather than cutting them. Some dogs may dislike the pressure on the nail that comes with traditional clippers, and may be more comfortable with the sanding mechanism of a grinder. Equally, some dogs may dislike the sound or vibrations of this method. The best type of clipper depends on the preference of each dog.

Bypass’ or ‘scissor’ dog nail clippers have two sharp curved blades that move against each other – much like a pair of scissors or secateurs. You may also see this type called ‘plier’ nail clippers. These can either be sprung like secateurs, or not – like scissors – but they work in much the same way. They can be great for precise cuts, and on highly curved or small nails, but the spring ones work well in larger nails too. However, they blunt easily, and there’s no easy way to sharpen the blades, meaning you’ll have to replace the nail clippers entirely. To properly trim your dog's overgrown nails, use dog nail clippers or small dog nail scissors. If your dog has dark nails and you can't see the blood vessel in the nail, you can also use an electric light.
