“I have 3 mixed breed dogs that weigh between 40 and 50 lbs and they all got the hang of it within a few minutes.”

“Good system for dogs that don’t like getting their nails trimmed. The file is coarse, durable, and made of good-quality material.”

THE TAILMATES WAY
More little wins.
More time together.
We believe everyday care should make room for curiosity, patience, and a few well-earned treats. TailMates brings play and practical nail care into one routine you can learn together.
Start your new routine ↗Will my dog know what to do?
Most dogs need an introduction. Start with small treats and reward paw contact, then scratching. Training videos are included to guide you through the process.
Is TailMates right for my dog?
Introduce the board at your dog’s pace. Start on easy, reward paw contact and build up to scratching. The board is 30 cm across (about 12 inches). Learning time and results vary.
What about back nails?
The scratch board is for front nail tips. The kit includes a handheld nail file for back nails and touch-ups, so you can care for those separately.
Does it need a special surface?
Start on a stable, grippy surface and use the supplied grip pads as directed. Supervise practice. A separate floor mat is not included in the current kit.
What if my dog won’t use it?
For a return, email admin@tail-mates.com within 30 days of delivery with your order number. Opened and used kits are accepted. We provide a prepaid return label; return the complete kit for a refund of the kit purchase price. Applies to orders placed on tail-mates.com.
