Ancol Ergo Nail Guillotine Clippers

Trim your dog’s claw tips with the Ancol Ergo Nail Guillotine Clippers. The guillotine-style cutting mechanism removes a small amount when you squeeze the handle, while the non-slip grip helps you hold the tool securely.

Measuring approximately 14cm, these manual clippers are designed for routine claw maintenance. Careful positioning is essential: the clippers do not identify the quick or prevent you from cutting too far.

• Guillotine-style mechanism for claw trimming.
• Non-slip handle for a secure, comfortable grip.
• Suitable for routine dog claw care when used carefully.
• Measures approximately 14cm.

How to use

Begin when your dog is calm and comfortable. Hold the paw securely and keep the toe steady. Position the clipper over the very tip of the claw, then squeeze the handle to remove a small amount. Introduce the tool gradually, keep initial sessions brief and offer reassurance. Pause or stop if your dog becomes distressed.

Important safety advice

Only trim small amounts from the claw tip. Avoid the quick, which contains blood vessels and nerves; cutting it causes pain and bleeding. Take extra care with dark claws, where the quick can be difficult to see. If you are unsure where to cut, ask a veterinary professional or qualified groomer for guidance before trimming.

Keep fingers clear of the cutting mechanism. Inspect regularly for wear or damage and discontinue use if damaged. Store securely out of reach of children. For pet grooming only.

Care

Wipe the metal cutting mechanism clean with an alcohol wipe and allow it to dry completely before storing.
