Game changer

I just finished the nail trim course and I already feel more confident that I won’t hurt my dogs at their next nail trim. I have had dogs for 25 years and have always trimmed their nails myself. However I always stressed about it which made my dogs nervous….so I didn’t trim their nails as often as I should have. And of course I did horizontal cuts. I feel so much more confident about the process after completing this course. Dr Buzby was thorough and informative in the videos and the quizzes and written charts were helpful in solidifying the information in my head. So glad I took the time and expense to complete this course. I’m sure my dogs will appreciate it too!

Excellent course!

Excellent course. Well worth the investment in time and money. Great information for anyone that cares about dogs and wants to be more comfortable and careful trimming their nails.
I have 5 dogs and usually a couple foster dogs with me at all times so it really pays off to know how to trim nails. Saves a lot of money and time not having to go to the vet to have it done. Alot less stress on all involved.
Thank you, Dr. Buzby.

Wow, so much to learn!

I have been trimming my dog's nails for 8 years. I was quite pleased with my comfortability and skill in trimming Maggie's nails. The videos in the course clearly showed numerous times the best way to sculpture dog's nails and how to be successful. I am excited to try Dr. Buzby's technique.

It’s a great course for clients.

This course is a great resource to help pet owners gain the confidence to trim their pets claws with no prior experience. As a Licensed Veterinary Technologist of 23 years it reaffirms that the technique that ive been using over the years is the proper way to trim.

For Vets and Vet Techs and Groomers

This course is great for veterinarians (myself) and veterinary staff as well. I greatly dislike nail trims. Watching Dr. Buzby in this course is so endearing to see her love for nails and toes and how they make such an impact on a pet's quality of life. I might just like toenails again :) I am much more confident now in helping my patients have positive experiences with nail trims and keeping them in good shape!

Super interesting & Motivating

I can't wait to go and try out my newly learnt skills on my old girl! Up until now, I have been practicing the horizontal cut and trimming back with dog grinders that are smaller and more gentle than Dremel. She more easily accepts the nail grinding than cutting, but it may be that I was cutting wrong that she does not like. Now, I have no excuse and really enjoyed learning how to hold the paws and findng the best position and most of all - how to cut them correctly. Thank you for this course!

Very helpful for the novice trimmer

As one who guillotined my late dog's black nails - cornstarch to the rescue! - I'm grateful to learn about the proper tools and techniques. for nail trims. I bought the nail clippers while I await my next dog. That's why I appreciate the ability to view the videos repeatedly. Certificate be hanged! I'd appreciate a video view from above so that I could see the angle of "attack" from the right side. That's my only recommendation for improvement.
