- Specifically engineered for trimming the toenails of dogs and other small animals
- Clinical Maintenance:
- Used by veterinary professionals for routine nail care during exams or under anesthesia to prevent overgrowth and related gait issues

- High-Grade Material:
- Manufactured from Japanese stainless steel for durability and long-lasting sharpness
