Frequently Asked Questions
What's included in the Zakity Dog Nail Care Bundle?
The Zakity Dog Nail Clipper with Positionable 3× Magnifier (with a small canvas pouch to protect the magnifier, a metal nail file, and a tightening wrench), the Zakity Lick Mat 2-pack (one orange, one blue, with spatula), and the Zakity Canvas Storage Bag.
Can I buy the canvas storage bag on its own?
Yes, the Canvas Storage Bag is $8.99 on its own. In the bundle, it's free.
How big is the canvas storage bag?
13 × 27 cm (5.2 × 10.7 inches). It holds the clipper with the magnifier attached, the nail file, and the tightening wrench, with room for more.
How do the lick mats help with nail trims?
Spread a treat on the mat and press it onto a smooth surface with the suction cups. Licking keeps your dog busy and distracted during the nail trim. Always use under supervision.
Can I see the quick on black nails?
You can't see through a black nail, but the positionable 3× magnifier gives you a closer view of the cut end, so you can trim a little at a time and stop when you spot the dark dot that signals the quick.
Does the clipper work for left-handed people?
Yes. The safety guards limit how much nail you remove per cut, and because there are two of them (dual guards), the clipper works for both left-handed and right-handed users.
How much do I save with the bundle?
Bought separately, the clipper, the Lick Mat 2-pack and the canvas storage bag come to $49.93. The bundle is $40.94, so you save $8.99, which is the price of the bag.
How do I use the lick mat during a nail trim?
Spread a thin layer of a pet-safe spreadable treat on the mat, press the suction cups onto a smooth surface where your dog can reach it, and let your dog start licking before you begin trimming. Always use under supervision.
Is this a good kit for beginners?
Yes. The positionable 3× magnifier gives you a closer view of the cut end, the dual safety guards limit how much nail you remove per cut, and the lick mat gives your dog something to focus on while you work.
How often should I trim my dog's nails?
Most dogs need a trim every 2 to 4 weeks, depending on activity level and the surfaces they walk on. If you hear clicking on hard floors, it's time to trim.
Can I use the clipper on cats?
Yes. The sharp stainless steel blades work well on cat nails, and the magnifier helps you get a closer look at small claws.
How does my purchase help shelter pets?
3% of your purchase price (excluding shipping and taxes) goes to shelter and rescue pets. You can choose which featured shelter or rescue to support at checkout.
