Learn to dock tails and/or remove dewclaws in your nursery without stress to mom or puppies/kittens. Avoid taking your newborns to the veterinary office, which causes stress to mom and infants and can potentially expose puppies to sick animals.

Using professional equipment, detailed instructions, and links to instructional videos, you will use our elastrator and bands to painlessly dock tails and remove dewclaws with minimal pain. Kit includes professional medical equipment and instructions needed to dock tails and remove dewclaws on puppies or other infant animals 1-5 days of age with the least amount of pain or trauma. No experience necessary, but a helper is recommended to hold squirming babies. Instructions included for use on puppies.

Deluxe Kit includes:

(1) Small Stainless Steel Forceps

(1) Stainless Steel Suture Scissors with tiny hook to place under dewclaw toe

(1) package of 100 colored bands 1/8" medium weight

(1) stainless steel elastrator

(1) Mendwell for aftercare

(only difference between this Deluxe Kit and Regular Kit is this item)

Detailed instructions with photos and instructional video links

I use all of this equipment in my own nursery and love the quality. There are lesser quality elastrators on the market that are not recommended for this delicate work. There are copycat docking kits that use the wrong equipment for puppies and can cause irreparable damage or death to puppies. Please purchase your docking kit here from a breeder with over 40 years of experience. We have sold thousands of these kits to satisfied breeders. Read the reviews!

Mendwell is recommended to accelerate wound healing and reduce scarring. It is an all-natural therapeutic grade essential oil blend - alternative to traditional products that are unsafe for the dam to ingest, and can be used for healthy skin repair support for the entire family including animals and humans. In our practice we see wounds healing in about half the normal time and with significantly less scarring.

If you are whelping puppies, you might want to add more forceps to your order so that you can clamp the umbilical cord in two places when the placenta is not yet delivered - cut between and keep the cord from going back inside while you clean the puppy. Clamp at 90 degree angle to bitch so she isn't injured by the forceps. This prevents potential umbilical hernia. I like to have several sets of forceps in both sizes in my whelping kit in case I have puppies born back to back.

Note regarding the use of Hydrogen Peroxide for aftercare: It is a commonly held belief, backed by some studies, that hydrogen peroxide is a useful wound cleanser. However, more recent studies have found hydrogen peroxide to be toxic, or deadly, to cells otherwise involved in healing. A study published in the Journal of Athletic Training suggests using a saline solution instead. I have personally found that Mendwell accelerates the healing process beyond that of saline and reduces scarring as well.

Boxer Momma

EASY-BREEZY!!! What a great kit to have! Paula's videos and written instructions that come with kit are clear, easy to follow and thorough. My puppies arrived earlier than expected by a few days, Paula sent me my kit quickly and it got here just in time as puppies are 3 days old. Definitely going to use this method from now on to get painless, good looking tails! Removing dewclaw is never painless, however, Paula's encouragement (TAKE A DEEP BREATH, YOU CAN DO THIS) ..yes , really says that as you are reading her notes, clear directions and helpful pictures made even the daunting task of removing dewclaw simple. Thanks Paula! From one happy Boxer Momma

Awesome Auction Prize!

I had seen Paula's FB post about the Deluxe Tail Docking & Dewclaw Removal Kit, so when the opportunity came to bid on one that she had donated to a Boxer Forum, I jumped at it! I have yet to use the euqipment, however I have used the Healing Solutions on my husband (wood piling scrape) & one of my Boxers (vine scratch). Within two days of applying both healed up, with no signs of trauma at all. Definitely will be keeping Healing Solutions as part of my First Aid Supplies! Thanks Paula:)

Wish I knew earlier

Our litter of boxer puppies was born yesterday, 5/28. All 8 pups beautiful and healthy. I just wanted to thank you because I am so very happy I decided to purchase the tail docking and dewclaw removal kit. This is the 4th litter we've had and with the prior 3, I've always had one of our 2 vets perform the tail docking (surgically) and dewclaw removal. I only wish i learned of your methods sooner. I did the banding and dewclaws late last night with my husband as my assistant. The pups didn't react at all to the tails being banded. Dewclaw removal was a little squeak. It was so much less stressful for everyone! So thank you again for putting your information online and helping others to learn what may be a better option for them and their dogs. I know it's certainly what is best for us going forward. Sincerely, Sharon Krumpfer

Thank you!

Paula, we can not thank you enough! I clicked express shipping thinking the earliest possibility of arrival would be Monday morning. To my surprise the package arrived yesterday at noon! Less than 24 hours after buying! You are awesome and we really appreciate the service. So do our 6- 3 day old doberman puppies! If we have any questions or concerns I'll be sure to reach out. Thank you again!
