More and more pet owners who are painting their pets’ nails are taking to social media to share their experiences. They claim that their pets love being pampered, and the pictures that they share on social media do show it. While professional pet-groomers can certainly help, pet-owners can also try painting their pets’ nails at home as long as the nail polishes they use are non-toxic and pet-friendly. Warren London and Princess Pawdicure are some of the brands that specialize in producing pet-friendly nail polishes – the unique formula of these polishes make them odor-less and quick drying so that pets are not restricted in their movement for too long.

However, caution must also be taken in this matter. Under no circumstances can pets’ nails be painted with polishes that aren’t specifically made for them, because if ingested, the toxic chemicals in the nail paints can prove to be lethal for pets. Additionally, there are also some who believe that the act of giving pets pedicures harbors extremely close to animal cruelty and that because animals are unable to communicate their emotions effectively, they should not be forced to undergo such unnatural processes.

As long as the processes are safe for pets, there is no drawback in embracing trends such as these. After all, who better to get a pedicure with than your best friend?
