Loved by anxious dogs everywhere
She used to hide behind the couch. Now she runs to the board when she hears the drawer.
My rescue won't let anyone near his paws. This is the first thing that's worked in two years.
Our senior lab does his front paws himself now. No more dreading the monthly wrestle.

Questions people actually ask
Will it work on back paws?
Most dogs file their front nails happily and need a hand with the back ones. Prop the board flat on the floor for rear paws.
How long does it take to teach?
Most dogs get the idea in one or two short sessions. Treat, let them paw at it, treat again. Never push the paw down for them.
What if my dog ignores it?
That usually means the sessions are too long or the treat isn't worth it. Two minutes and something smelly beats ten minutes and a biscuit.
When do I replace the sandpaper?
When it stops feeling gritty under your thumb. Heavy users get a few months a sheet.
