How to Use

If you accidentally cut the quick while trimming your pet’s nails, apply a small pinch of Trimmex Powder directly to the bleeding tip of the nail. Apply gentle pressure for a few seconds. The powder promotes rapid clotting and should stop the bleeding quickly. Keep your pet calm and still during application. If bleeding is heavy or does not stop within a few minutes, seek veterinary advice.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the quick and why does it bleed so much?

The quick is the blood vessel that runs through the centre of your dog’s nail. In dogs with lighter-coloured nails it is usually visible as a pink area, but in darker nails it can be very difficult to see. If cut, the quick bleeds readily — which can look alarming but is rarely dangerous. Trimmex stops this bleeding quickly so your dog (and you) can recover calmly.

Is Trimmex safe if my dog licks it?

Trimmex is formulated to be non-toxic. However, as with any grooming product, it is best to discourage licking immediately after application to allow the powder to work effectively. If your dog ingests a large amount or shows any adverse reaction, contact your vet.

Can I use Trimmex on cats?

Yes — Trimmex is suitable for use on cats as well as dogs for stopping nail bleeding.

How do I avoid cutting the quick in future?

Trim little and often rather than taking large amounts off at once. For dogs with dark nails, use a torch or nail light to try to illuminate the quick before cutting. Always use sharp, good-quality nail clippers designed for pets. If you are unsure, ask your groomer or vet to demonstrate the correct technique.

How much powder do I need?

Only a small pinch is needed per application — the 30g pot will last a long time with normal home use. For professional groomers seeing multiple dogs per day, having a spare pot on hand is recommended.
