When your dog is standing square on a flat surface, their nails should not be engaged and you should be able to slide a credit card under your dog’s nails and the floor. Long nails impact posture causing undue stress of ligaments, joints, and muscles. Not only is it uncomfortable and leads to poor traction in our senior dogs, but it predisposes young animals to develop arthritis.
It’s imperative to consistently handle your dog’s feet starting at a young age and for them learn a positive association with the nail clippers/dremel. This is one of many reasons why I send all my puppy clients to Polite Pooches: to teach the owners to be comfortable with this, but also to learn to communicate and understand their dogs better.

Finicky eaters like Rudy are rarely just being particular about what they want to eat, but instead have underlying GI issues. Rudy was always up for a treat, but was frequently skipping his kibble in the AM, making gurlgy stomach noises, burping, and having intermittently softer stool. After switching to a tailored fresh food diet, balancing out his pattern with Chinese herbals, and doing a few spinal manipulations, Rudy’s clinical signs subsided quickly. It’s wonderful when people seek integrative care out early in the disease process as many times we can stop and even reverse inflammatory damage of the gut before we have full blown IBD or pancreatitis.
Bingo’s did a great job grooming this handsome devil!

Frances was rescued as a kitten and she arrived with horrid diarrhea. She went through a slew of probiotics, prophylactic deworming, metronidazole, prescription GI diets to no avail. Since incorporating chinese herbals to drain her dampness and booster the gut immune system, her fluffy butt is no longer smearing p**p on surfaces, and the owners are scooping solid stool out of the litterbox.
