Ask your vet about nurses clinics. The vet nurse(s) will do them for a small fee. Alternatively groomers will also do them for a small fee - price will differ from vet practice to vet practice and groomer to groomer!

I'm taking Jethro to get his done this afternoon. It was £8.00 for the nail clipping but he also needs his pad fur trimming out so it's £12 for both.

He's gigantapuppy though (a Newfoundland/St Bernard cross) so I don't know if that will have hiked the price up (seems to have that effect on everything else )

As a groomer I would cut nails as part of the grooming service.
I didn't cut nails as a seperate visit as by the time I've steralised everything, given time for the dog to settle before I started, and steralised again afterwards, then it just wasn't worth me doing it.

It maybe better value to book your rescue in for an MOT which will include a bath, trim, descale teeth and nails if you choose the right groomer - they you'll know that he's had a full MOT!

Its easy to do them yourself with a pair of clippers. If they're black I just clip a little at a time and file the ends with nail files.

What she said

I agree with Westy, have a groom instead. I dislike offering it as a service alone because of the reasons westy detailed and also I find it tricky to make time for sometimes.

I charge £6 for nails but the two vets local to my salon charge £12 and £17, whilst I charge £20 to groom a labrador (for example), so for an extra £3-8 you get a bath and a de-shed and ears cleaned :thumbup1:

We don't charge separately for claw clipping or pad trimming; it's all part of the grooming service.

Nails are included in the price of a groom at the groomers I use.
If the dogs are only having their nails clipped then it's £6 per dog.
The vets charge the same, but if you are in on an appointment for something else will do them free of charge

My local poodle parlour charged us 50p per foot her dog - but I'm guessing there is a fair chance she might have charged a little more if we'd only had one

Other places I phoned - most of them said around £5 per dog - as others have said - it depends what else is being done - mines not typically a breed that needs to go to the parlour for anything else
