Hold your scissors flat against your dog's paw pads and trim any excess fur that is longer than the pads themselves. You can separate the paw pads with your fingers to get the scissors in between these areas. Be very careful not to cut your dog's skin or paw pads. You will need to point the scissors downward in towards the paw pad rather than keeping it parallel. Just be cautious and careful. With your clippers or scissors, carefully trim the excess fur hanging over the edges of the paw. You'll want this edge to be a nice clean cut.
