MBVH “How to” Videos!

In this video, Kelly (our amazing and talented receptionist), guides you through trimming her dog’s dark colored nails.  This dremmel technique can be used for any type of nail, but is particularly helpful for dark nails because you are less likely to damage the quik, which can cause discomfort to your pet.
