WHAT ARE THE NEGATIVE EFFECTS OF LONG NAILS ON DOGS?

It’s easy to want to put off grinding your dog’s nails, as it doesn’t seem like a very serious or important part of grooming. However, the fact is that there are a number of unwanted consequences that could arise out of a dog’s nails being kept long and not being cut frequently enough.

The more obvious negative effect is that the feet and paws of your dog could wind up in a lot of pain. When long nails hit the ground as a dog walks or runs, the nails are pushed upwards, digging into the nail bed, forcing the twisting of the affected toes or simply exerting undue pressure on the joints of the toes.

This pain may start out as quite minor, but it can lead to extremely sore toes and cause your dog to dislike being touched on the paw in any way due to how painful it is. This will make it even harder for you to trim your dog’s nails in the future, and it can even cause toes to become arthritic.

The lesser known but even more negative consequence of allowing a dog’s nails to grow too long is that it can permanently ruin a dog’s posture and skeletal structure, causing pain, reduced mobility, and other potential related issues.
