I want to use these 4 my mom who has very fragile skin. We have a little dog who loves2 play. However, her nails catch her skin, would these help?

Do not believe these sleeves will work for protection against the cat's nail.

These are for protection of the wearers arms from the sun and not from animals. Advice? Keep dogs away from it because it will not protect her skin and will puncture or tear.

Danielle and Monica are spot on. Try not to touch the gel pads as the oils on the hand do not help with the stickiness. I have dampened my finger and moistened the gel to clean them and rehydrate them. Have had no problem after doing that.

I bought them for my ukulele, but they were much too firm. When I tried to bend one a bit it snapped in half.I've had a classical guitar, as well, the strings are definitely thicker than a ukulele's, I think that these MIGHT work.I also don't have very strong fingernails, I used to bite them and only stopped a few years ago. But, after trying it out, I would say to grow them out a bit and shape them into rounded points. Then try picking. Your nails should eventually get stronger, and the shape really helps. It's way better than using a pick, especially for Spanish guitar. Arpeggio is nearly impossible with a pick.Whatever you do, don't give up. I bought them for my ukulele, but they were much too firm.

I'd assume her nails would puncture the tube. It's not flimsy or cheap but I know that my rescue dog has pretty sharp nails. I wouldn't trust it.

Hi, I do think you can use these nails for the reasons you stated. Thanks Ken

Yes they will, however let me warn you: I would wait until she is a bit older to use these caps, maybe 6 months or so... When my cat was a kitten, she got her nails caught because of the caps, in many places and it would break her nail. Keep that in mind, I'm sure it is painful. However, at 6 months, they worked great...But, please don't de-claw your cats, its just cruel :) Hope this helps!

It might work. If he is licking the nail, though, he might just chew it off. It takes a bit of glue. I also cut them down a bit so my dog' s fur does not get caught in the glue. It might be worth a try if you need some protection for that nail...Hope this helps a bit.

I don't wear nails often, and the ones i put on myself don't stay on well. And I use this product. I don't know why my nails don't stay on, but they don't. It could be because I do something wrong..I don't know for sure. But when I have nails done professionally they stay on better.

I find these particular sheets way too thick to put for nails and really stay on. I actually do nails so I'm not just speculating. Hope that is helpful to you :)!

I think if you gave it to her at least 30-60 min. before, it would at least help. Our chihuahua hated to have us touch her nails-we switched to a Peticure file, VERY gradually, & she is totally fine now as long as we don't go too long & she knows there's a treat after. That might be even easier!

We used them on our old dog who had a very weak rear end. They made a huge difference. I think they would work well to keep your dog from slipping. The only drawback to having them on all the time is that do not breath. You may be able to help this by poking holes in the tops, or possibly switching up feet.

Honestly, if you can get them to stay on that long, kudos! Our chewed them off that day.but yes, they will grow out with the nails and fall off. But like I said, they dont stay on. Our cat also chews just the tip off, leaving them completely worthless

Mollie does not have this issue. She loves people and I have to work to keep her from jumping on others. The calming coat has been a big help with thunder storms and toe nail clipping. I noticed in one video I saw, this issue was addressed and it seemed to help that dog.

yes! mine would split and rip as soon as they started growing out but this product helped a lot! My nails have honestly never been stronger.

I wouldn't say they necessarily do from the dog just playing, but if her nails are at all sharp, yes they will go right through the rubber. I keep my dog's nails dull with a dremal tool, and haven't had any troubles this way. I can see it being a potential issue for other dogs though.

If u can get him to wear them, they should help. They are a sturdy rubber and the nails don't poke through.
