Make sure the food you are feeding her is a decent brand. Check out dogfoodadvisor.com and compare your food with other options. Many "popular" food brands like purina or beneful have very little nutrients. If you are feeding her something that you feel is good for her, try adding in some supplements like Missing Link. There is some sort of deficiency in her diet that is keeping her from growing proper nails. My corg gets walks every day on pavement and I still have to grind her nails down once a week, if you need a comparison of proper growth.

For a short fix, you can use flour or cornstarch to stop the bleeding. I suggest buying some qwickstop from a local pet store, which is what we use in the grooming shop for quicked nails.

You can also buy soft claws for dogs, which is a plastic cover you can glue onto her nails to protect her nails. Soft Claws. You may have to train her to leave them alone.

Here are a few tricks you can try to help with a feisty Beagle!

  1. Try massaging his paws for a few minutes before bringing out the clippers. Clip one nail, massage a little bit. Clip another, massage. Rinse repeat. It takes patience, but eventually he may let you speed up and clip them quickly.

  2. Try having a second person who the dog loves and trusts petting and loving on him. Let them give him treats so he knows what a good boy he is being!

  3. Try wrapping him in a blanket with only the paw you are working on and his head uncovered. This may simulate a Thunder Shirt (Warning, auto-play video when opened) and keep him calmer during the clipping. Don't wrap him too tightly or he may freak out over being unable to move freely.

  4. Try giving him a Peanut Butter Ball filled with peanut butter. Our Beagles will let you do almost anything to them (except take the ball) when they have this ball. This only works if your dog is the kind who doesn't run away with treats and toys.

  5. Take him on more frequent walks/longer walks on concrete. Obviously the effects of walking on hard surfaces can be detrimental so please keep moderation in mind. That said, walking on concrete or the street helps keep your dog's nails shorter for longer because they naturally wear away on the ground. This is NOT a replacement for trimming nails in any way. You still need to maintain their nails.

    Lastly, I want to mention that grinders aren't very good for their nails - or ours for that matter. They weaken the nail making it more likely to split, splinter or break. Also, it is very easy to over grind. If you really feel like you'd like to dull his nails you can use a coarse grit human nail file (you would need to use the file as you would for human hands, filing in only one direction and not back and forth) or claw covers!

    Let me know if I've gone off the rails! Good luck!
