As a matter of course all pet's nails are checked and trimmed if required. We also ensure the dew claws are trimmed on rabbits, to allow your pet to groom their head, ears and face more easily.
If nails are allowed to grow long in rabbits, foot problems can occur due to too much weight being placed on the heel resulting in pododermatitis (Sore Hocks). This condition is common in giant breeds due to their heavy weight and rex breeds due to the footpad only having a thin covering of fur.
Should your pet require their nails clipping between boarding we are always on hand to do this free of charge.
