Tired of trimming brocolli heads for dog who loves tippy tips rolled into her meatballs. Will it work?

Isothiocyanate is the toxic substance in broccoli (found in the brocolli heads). Large amounts of broccoli can be considered poisonous to dogs. Stems are ok I guess. There are other thingsbetter for your dog no matter what they like. No onions or dark chocolate either. ;-)

I don't understand the other two answers. In my opinion, it would do a fine job, making it fast and simple.

If you're going to be doing poodle type hair use curvedm it your going to be doing shave down type dogs like shih tzu, Maltese, goldens, and York is use staight scizors. Curbed are mostly used for rounding top knots etc. If this is your first time I would also recommend back tip scissors.

Yes. My dog is a corgi mix and loves this. She nuzzles the base and makes it tip this way and that to get kibble.

It should work very well, and it should make her life easier. If she also buys the long handle attachment, she won't have to crawl around on her knees to do the trimming. I am very pleased with mine, especially for that feature.

Sure. It clips the same way for cats or dogs. Just be careful not to take more than just the tip off a cats nails.

Sure. In my opinion this would be really handy to portion them so they can be uniform in size and eliminate you having to grab the raw meat and mess with getting it under your nails. However, you would still to roll it around in your hands to make it round and condensed into a meatball so it wont fall apart.

I would say its worth a try. I have an 8 month old hound mix who can eat the corner of a kitchen table in 2 mins. She loves the stump and is constantly trying to stick her head in. She loves the squirrels. She tries to pull their tales off. I've said it before and ill keep saying it until I find out by experience otherwise, kyjen makes some really amazing products. We have a snake, a squirrel mat, a jumbo stump, an octopus, squeaky eggs all over and a hedge hog or two. They are all built to last. Of course if your pup decides that he's hell bent on killing the stump it will eventually get torn to shreds but I think it's a great buy. I would say its worth a try.

Yes it will. I have a chow and spaniel. She has both curly and straight. It took about 20 min.

I agree with Amber. It takes some effort to get the treat out but not so much that the dog gives up. I put a mixture of treats and dog food in my dog's omega ball. The dog food falls out easily while the treats take more effort. It was the solution to my dog's bad behavior which was caused by boredom.

I'm sorry, we have a standard poodle and it seems to work well on her. I think the thought of one of the other clipper users is best, to go to a groomer who works with cats for a suggestion.

I purchased this for my Great Pyrenees to brush his undercoat and to break up hair mats. The teeth on the brush are rounded and not too sharp. I would imagine that this would work fine on any dog. Hope this helps!

I use the OH No! Hairball. Sadly when I contacted Friskies the said they were no longer producing it as it didn't sell well. If you can get it... I would stock up. It does last a long time. It is a hair ball remedy.

Hi Jerica, yes I have been doing this for over 2 months...depending on the dog you have.. I give my 2 hot dogs, cut them in small round pieces..not recommended to be injected directly to dog...

I believe that it will. Inside the round part there are prong looking things that you cut down to the size that you want. If you leave the prongs the size they come it will just make the dog work a little harder for the kibble. You can determine how much you want to make the dog work for it. I did cut the ones for our dogs and it is perfect because I know that they are able to get the kibble out. I'm able to fit around 20-30 small kibble on each side.I hope this helps you.

i have a medium coated German Shephard and it works perfectly on her. the tines are not real long at all. I would say it should be great for your Golden.

I used these on my malti-poo (half maltese half poodle) that has very long hair with compact texture similar to a lamb. The clippers worked great but they did get hot enough to really hurt! I bought a set of plastic clips to attach to the head to eliminate that problem. I no longer try to clip my little guy as he freaks out and turns into a Tazmanian devil at the mere sight of the clippers - so off to the professional he goes.

Thanks Patricia. I was going to use this for trimming my dogs hard as rock nails. He is very squeamish when it comes to getting his nails clipped, thought this might work a little better. My Brittany just sits there and soaks up the attention but my GSP can't stand to have anyone touch his nails, any thoughts? Grant
