Trimming a Pug’s nails can follow these steps. First, prepare dog-specific nail clippers, styptic powder, and treats or toys. Before starting, calm the dog by petting, speaking softly, or giving treats to keep it relaxed.

Second, look at the nail to see the clear part and the pink blood vessel. Avoid the vessel and keep a safe distance, then carefully cut part of the nail. After cutting, check the tip to ensure the vessel was not cut. If cut by mistake, apply styptic powder to the bleed and press briefly. Finally, give the Pug treats as a reward to encourage cooperation next time.
