Standard Forever File (3") ~ Knobby Nails

I am in love with the Knobby Nail File! This product is truly brilliant for a dog that doesn't like to have his/her nails trimmed!
 
The new Forever File by Knobby Nails is the workhorse of nail files! It is big, strong, and hardworking! The smooth, round handle feels good in your hand. The large filing surface gives you the power and control you need to shorten and round your dog’s nails quickly and comfortably. Works in any direction, and from any angle. 
 
The Forever File uses a durable REPLACEABLE filing disc, so if you ever wear out a filing disc, the hook fastener makes it simple to replace, to give you and your dog a lifetime of easy nail care. 
 
As with the traditional file, the handle is big and comfortable to hold, and easy to grip to give you more filing power and control. The Knobby File is great because you and your dog will start to relax about nail care.  No more cutting, pain or mishaps,  instead you will be able to remove the excess nail in an efficient but controlled fashion, that is safe and comfortable for both of you. In just a few minutes a week, you'll be able to keep your dog's nails in great shape!
 
The Standard size is meant for medium to very large dogs. Measures 3".
 
There is a MINI Knobby Nail File that works best for small dogs (2").
 
There is a Knobby Rounder that should be used for finishing the nails.
 
Knobby Nail products are proudly made in upstate NY.

TIPS FOR USE:
Some dogs require conditioning to get used to a new product on their nails - this is especially true for dogs that have experience negative nail trims. Take the time to get your dog used to the product and encourage their cooperation.
Tip 1: Get your dog used to having his paws/nails touched. Touch paw, reward. Hold paw, reward. 
Tip 2: Do nail sessions whenever and wherever your dog is most comfortable/relaxed (bed, couch, floor, grooming table, wherever they are happiest).
Tip 3: Go slow if your dog is nervous or has had previous bad experiences with nail trims. Don't expect to trim all of their nails during the first session! File one nail, reward. The next day, file two nails, reward. Make this a positive experience for your dog!
Tip 4: Always remember the Big 3: Praise, patience, treats! Use LOTS of each!
Tip 5: A lick mat may prove a useful distraction while you file your dog's nails.
Your dog's nails will be slightly softer and easier to file after they have been out in the damp grass, snow, rain, or after a bath. 
If you want to protect your own manicure, you can slip on a pair of thin gloves.
 
CARE:
You can use a soft toothbrush to remove nail dust from the filing surface. If needed, use a slightly damp cloth to wipe the handle clean. Do NOT soak, submerge or wash in water. For long life, keep your file dry! Store your files out of your pup's reach so it isn't used as a toy. 
 
SIZE:
Choose the Standard size for medium/large dogs (it is 3" across the filing surface). Choose the MINI Knobby Nail File for small dogs (20lbs or less) or cats.
