Some dogs require very little nail maintenance because running on concrete or high activity levels wears down their nails naturally. However, most dogs require regular nail trims because they live indoors or are more sedentary in nature. Maintaining proper nail length is an important part of caring for your pet. When nails grow too long it can make it painful for dogs to walk. Additionally, long nails can make it difficult to get traction on hard surfaces such as laminate or hardwood floors which results in slipping, falling and scratches on your floor. In more extreme cases, some dog's nails will curl under and actually start growing into the footpads. This leads to painful sores and infections. Additionally, long nails can get caught on something and become partially torn off or split which is very painful for your dog.
