I usually give Layla (black lab/pointer mix) baths at home...but with her black nails, I am afraid to trim as I can't see the quick.
They've been getting long...last pedicure was at the vet in early March - and I have scratch marks all over me to prove it.
I found A Family Affair by the Happy Hour sign on 16th St. I went in last week, spoke with Troy, and made an appointment for today to have Layla's nails trimmed.
She is a nervous dog, not thrilled to be on a leash and not happy to be handled by strangers. That said, we had a GREAT experience! She was handled gently, spoken to softly, and I was allowed to go back and pet her head and talk to her while getting the clipping done.
Fast and painless...they even used a dremel to file down the edges so they are smooth.
I will definitely be back for all our nail visits...and next time, I think I'll let them take care of the bath, too!
