Healthy Nails, Happier Pets With Gentle Care
A pet’s nails may seem like a small detail, but they play a critical role in their comfort, health, and mobility. Overgrown nails can cause pain, affect posture, and even lead to long-term joint issues. At Oui Paws Pet Salon, we’ve spent over 20 years perfecting nail clipping services that go beyond trimming. Our approach is focused on safety, precision, and compassion, ensuring pets remain comfortable throughout the process. Nail clipping isn’t just routine maintenance—it’s a foundation for your pet’s overall wellness and happiness.
We proudly offer expert grooming in Huntington Beach, California, and also welcome pet owners from nearby areas, including Costa Mesa, Fountain Valley, Westminster, and Newport Beach. Being part of Orange County’s active, coastal community means pets often enjoy long walks, beach outings, and outdoor play. These activities can make nail maintenance even more essential, as sand, pavement, and uneven terrain put extra pressure on paws. Our nail clipping services are designed to address these local challenges, ensuring every pet stays comfortable and healthy, no matter their lifestyle.
Our nail clipping solutions are tailored for both dogs and cats, regardless of breed or size. Whether it’s a nervous puppy, a senior cat, or an energetic dog, we use gentle techniques and professional tools to provide stress-free care. Combined with a calm environment and skilled handling, the result is safer nails, healthier paws, and happier pets. At Oui Paws Pet Salon, we believe every detail matters—and healthy nails mean healthier pets.
Our Nail Clipping Services
Standard Nail Trimming
Our standard nail trimming keeps your pet’s nails at the right length, preventing pain, breakage, and mobility issues. Using professional tools and careful techniques, we make the process quick, safe, and stress-free—an essential part of maintaining your pet’s overall paw health and comfort.
Nail Grinding for Smooth Finish
After trimming, nail grinding creates a smooth, rounded edge, reducing sharp tips that could scratch floors, furniture, or family members. With specialized tools, we gently buff nails for a polished, safe, and comfortable finish, giving pets healthier paws and owners peace of mind.
Puppy and Kitten Nail Care
Young pets grow quickly, and their nails often require frequent care. Our puppy and kitten nail trimming uses gentle handling and patient techniques, ensuring every experience is positive. Introducing nail care early helps pets build trust, reduces fear, and sets the foundation for lifelong grooming comfort.
Senior Pet Nail Services
Older pets often struggle with overgrown nails, leading to discomfort and difficulty walking. Our senior pet nail services focus on safety, comfort, and stress-free handling. By accommodating sensitive paws and slower movements, we help senior pets stay mobile, healthy, and pain-free with regular care.
Paw Pad Cleaning and Care
Healthy paws mean healthier pets. Along with nail clipping, we gently clean paw pads to remove dirt, debris, or irritants that may cause infections or discomfort. This complete care approach keeps paws clean, soft, and in excellent condition for everyday walking, running, or playing.
Maintenance Packages
Active pets often require more frequent nail trims. Our maintenance packages provide consistent care on a schedule tailored to your pet’s lifestyle. Regular trims help maintain paw health, prevent painful overgrowth, and keep nails in optimal condition year-round, ensuring pets stay comfortable, active, and mobile.
Benefits of Nail Clipping
Improved Comfort and Mobility
Properly clipped nails reduce pain from overgrowth and ease strain on paws. Pets walk and run more naturally, with improved balance and comfort. Nail clipping promotes smooth mobility, allowing your companion to enjoy daily activities freely without discomfort, stress, or risk of injury.
Prevention of Injuries
Long nails can snag on carpets, furniture, or outdoor surfaces, causing breaks or tears. Regular nail clipping greatly reduces these risks, keeping pets safe during play or exercise. This simple preventive step avoids painful accidents that could otherwise lead to costly veterinary visits.
Protection for Your Home
Overgrown nails may scratch hardwood floors, tear upholstery, or accidentally harm family members. Trimming nails regularly prevents such issues, keeping both pets and households safe. Healthy nails protect your home environment, ensuring pets remain well-groomed while reducing damage to furniture, flooring, and personal belongings.
Reduced Risk of Joint Problems
When nails grow too long, pets alter their posture to walk, placing strain on joints and paws. Over time, this unnatural gait can cause arthritis or mobility issues. Regular nail clipping ensures proper alignment, reducing stress on the musculoskeletal system and promoting long-term comfort.
Early Detection of Paw Issues
Nail clipping offers an opportunity to examine paws closely. Groomers may identify cracked nails, infections, or irritations between pads. Early detection prevents minor issues from escalating into painful conditions, ensuring pets remain comfortable and healthy with timely attention to hidden paw concerns.
Reduced Stress for Pets
Pets accustomed to nail clipping experience less anxiety during grooming. Gentle handling, routine visits, and familiarity help reduce fear, turning the process into a positive experience. Regular care ensures pets benefit physically while feeling safe, secure, and comfortable during every session.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why is nail clipping important for pets?
Regular nail clipping prevents overgrowth that can cause pain, mobility issues, and injuries. It supports natural movement, reduces the risk of scratches, and helps pets feel more comfortable. Healthy nails are essential for both your pet’s long-term health and daily comfort.
How often should my pet’s nails be clipped?
Most pets require nail clipping every 3–6 weeks, depending on breed, activity level, and lifestyle. Active pets may wear their nails down naturally, while indoor pets need more frequent trims. A groomer can recommend the ideal schedule based on your pet’s needs.

Can nail clipping prevent joint issues?
Yes, keeping nails short supports natural posture and prevents pets from shifting their gait unnaturally. This reduces strain on joints, paws, and the back. Over time, consistent nail clipping helps protect against arthritis, mobility issues, and other painful conditions caused by misalignment.
What if my pet is anxious about nail clipping?
At Oui Paws Pet Salon, our groomers use patience, calm techniques, and gentle handling to reduce stress. Over time, pets become more comfortable with regular nail clipping, turning the experience into a positive routine that promotes both physical and emotional well-being.
Are nail grinding services safe?

Can nail clipping be combined with other services?
Yes, nail clipping is often paired with services like paw pad cleaning, coat grooming, or ear care. Combining treatments ensures pets leave looking and feeling their best, while also saving owners time with comprehensive grooming packages in a single appointment.
How do I know if my pet’s nails are too long?
If you hear clicking sounds on hard floors or notice your pet struggling to walk comfortably, their nails are likely too long. Regular inspections by a professional groomer ensure nails remain at a safe length, preventing pain and supporting healthier movement.
