Get it done by some professional groomers or vet as it may b serious issue if done wrongly. Trimming can b started once your dog is 2-3 months old.

8 weeks of age is generally recommended to start trimming a puppy's nails or as soon as they start to get long enough to touch the ground.

The piece of advice is this: Begin early. Don’t wait until your puppy is 6 months old to trim his nails. Begin trimming the first week it comes home, even if there isn’t much to trim, and trim the nails weekly to get the pup accustomed to this routine.

You can start to trim your puppy's nails from around six weeks.Even if there isn't much there to cut, it'll get them accustomed to the routine and means that by the time you need to give them a proper trim, they'll be used to sitting still for you.🐶🐕
