Our 14 months old boy has always had longish claws, despite beiing trimmed regularilly by his groomer, and on occasion by his vet. Should we request that they...
Not a dumb Q, but one that comes up often, that I myself have asked many times in the past. I personally use a dremel and used it 2-3 times a week to get my...
