How to clip your English Bulldog's nails
1) Secure your English Bulldog in a position where he/she will not struggle during the nail trimming process.
2) Use only dog nail clippers, human nail clippers were not designed to clip a dogs nails.
3) Look very closely at your English Bulldogs nails to see where it needs to be clipped, you do not want to cut through the quick. The quick is the dogs end portion of his/her vein, it is pink in appearance. Cut the nail past the quick, in English Bulldogs with llighter colored nails the quick is easily spotted. If the nails are black the quick is indicated by the indentation on the underside of the nail. If you cannot determine where the quick is trim with caution by making smaller cuts and advance carefully to avoid cutting through the quick.
3) If you do cut through the quick of your English Bulldogs nails it will likely bleed excessively, apply pressure to help stop the blood flow. There are products sold in pet stores to immediately stop the blood. If a nail is bleeding & you do not have these products then you can use cornstarch. Apply a pinch of cornstarch to the nail & keep it on your English Bulldogs nail for 10 to 15 minutes. It should stop the bleeding within a few seconds.
