Thats the only thing you can do to stop bleeding.. applying medicine, or simply use cornstarch It is necessary to cut their nails more often, if not they grow longer and longer, and the quick(vein) also grow longer. To maintain it short, groomer usually will cut deeper and let them bleed (if no choice) so that they can maintain the length next time without hurting them. The bleeding will stop in about 5 to 7 minutes. Any more than that...give your vet a call.

My Sushi, I once clipped till she bleed, she "scream" then I shocked... dare not continue to cut so I let her down.. but she just run around happily like nothing happen already Maybe it is really not that big deal for them Then recently I send her to House of Groomers, end up the groomer cut shorter then I did, and told me it is necessary to cut shorter

boyboy did bleed more than 7 minutes...i really shocked...somemore im alone at home... no choice i just put him in the cage so he won't walk around...after few hours later, the wound dry...
end up the groomer cut shorter then I did, and told me it is necessary to cut shorter << means cut till bleeding ah? normally i also cut once per 2 weeks...and will left a little bit more to reach the vein...

i think better cut it every 2 weeks, to prevent the groomer to cut it till bleeding...kesian jor...

@dreamcutie,
yes cut till bleed.........

they will feel very pain right???

just to share with everyone...ytd i been to ikano pet safari, and i saw this female groomer groom a Schnauzers inside...she is so impatient...keep pushing the Schnauzer when she groom him...thn whn she trying to comb the Schnauzer, the fur is tangled up so of coz he feel pain thn like trying to bite...end up she like very angry act like wan to beat him...after that she use the mouth shutter to cover his mouth and put the leash on him...seriously i never c how groomer groom my baby before...as always whn i bring to pet shop, there is a lot of pets waiting to be groom, so normally i juz left my baby there...

i am just trying to say when i saw this i felt a bit uneasy...mayb tat's just what groomer should do to keep the pet stay still...

apart from this, i got one question...dog eye discharged = tear stain? or it's different?

i think its different

Pain for awhile better then pain everytime grooming

I have seen my dogs groom before in House of Groomer, but not the whole session la.. so far didn't see them scold/beat/mistreat the dogs there. I saw one poodle laogai, the groomer a bit frustated, then another groomer come and help tame the poodle a bit, by sayang sayang and don't know talk what to the dog (I was standing behind the glass door)... so generally I think its okay over there.

Tearstain and discharge is different..

i think house of groomer they quite professional.cos amos come back never laukai.i have seen them grooming him b4 from the glass door as well, Amos stand still so good boy, somemore let them take photo. i asked Annie how did they do that, she said she keep telling amos "almost done already, wait some more wait some more"

so funny 1,pinky also like that,when u bath her u have to ask for her permission for 5 minutes,then she will still for 5 min,after 5 min,she started run or sth,i think dogs are expert in maths....

lolx...
for me i always sit there and wait for mikey till after he finishes grooming except in house of groomers...

no matter take 3 hours of 5 hours i also will jus sit there and watch them groom until finish..bcoz house of groomers i trust them bcoz they received so many gd reviews on the dogs they groom dy so i left mikey there and also bcoz i had to go to work that day

other than house of groomers i don care where or have what to do oso i jus sit there la bcoz i memang scare they mistreat him...and i also hate them put mikey in the dirty cages that so many other dogs are left in bcoz many groomers also don clean their cages properly...after grooming they put them inside all oso got pee n poo so i oso tak tahan...i don wanna pay my money for grooming then he get dirty n stinky again lol...

hah... after grooming put back into cage?

Luckily so far I only send HOG haha.. after grooming put on extra grooming table :p the only pity thing is, they still put a leash on them and "hang" them... I think they don't want the dog to lay down, so won't mess with nice haircut and blooming they did :p So usually I just collect right after (or as soon as possible) when they called to tell me its done!

got one time i left amos there for 9 hours. at night only pick him up, he no lau kai le some more tahan his pee for 9 hours, he enjoy sitting on the table looking at other dog.

can put thr for so long de ah? they wont charge u for day care ah...hahaha...amos geng ah...tahan his pee for 9 hours...but my boyboy also geng in tahan his pee...coz whn im at work, i put him in cage de...

since you all also recommed HOG, next time i will try it...but have to wait till i got my own car...if not later my bf said "why send to so far ah?"...

Jenny...since tear stain and eye discharge is different, boyboy can cure by using Health & Shine onot ah? coz boyboy one is eye discharge wor..

usually if they said they call u after your dog is done normally they wont call 1. Then i was busy i just call back in the evening, they said open till night so i collected him after my dinner. he only can tahan if he is not playing, while he is playing sumtimes he cant tahan if too long no pee. sumbody recommend me another pet salon in aman suria, i will let Amos try it out next time.

Hahha... so far I send in 3 times (2 times Hartamas, 1 time SJ) 2 times Hartamas one they called. SJ one I went in earlier and waited. So.. they got call la...

normally i send to The Pet Family, they will call...But got one time they really didn't call..thn i keep waiting n waiting...after all i really need to go out, i straight away go thr, boyboy was finish groom and stay in the cage sometimes i can't really recognize which one is boyboy...hahahaha

pet family put the dog back into cage after they groom??

normally they put dogs back into the cage what...depends whether that dog obedient or nt...dodo pet subang jaya didn put bobo back into the cage after groom bt stay inside the grooming room with them,they say he is kinda obedient bt nt for pinky who is agressive

all the while i send to house of groomer in subang, they left him stay on top of the grooming table only.

sinv...yes they did put dog back to the cage normally...but sometimes i saw 1 or 2 shih tzu on the table...i dunno is customers one or the boss one...

Won't they get messy again when you place them in cage?

not really...boyboy still look "pretty" after get out from the cage...haha...but one thing i don't like is the cage really not so clean...i can see the fur flying~~~~ But i wonder if they didn't put back, whr else can they put? there is quite alot other dogs though...

HOG-SJ there I think got around 20 tables hahha =)
