Usually twice a month.

Whenever I think about it. At least once a month, but it's usually more often than that.
*Thanks Ashley*
I also trim Rebel and Claire's once a week. I never cut them short enough but that's b/c I can't see the quick (Rebel's nails are black and Claire's are chocolate) and I don't want to cut them too short. lol Plus I like to have them used to having it done. I also file them too, at least once a week.

I cut them every week to two weeks.

Foxy's nails are black aswell which makes it a little harder to cut them, but i try to cut them so they are not touching the grounds when he's walking.Originally posted by dappledoxie

Whenever I give them a bath, which is every week. Sometimes every 2 weeks if they don't need it that week.

That's a good idea Kay, keeps them in routine!
gkristian, that's kinda what I try to do as well, great idea.
At work they tell people to file them and that helps to make the quicks get shorter and so I am hoping that that will happen.

I cut them about every 2 weeks, or a little before. Alex isn't really good about it, he whines and acts like I'm hurting him, even if the clippers aren't touching his nails But he puts up with it anyway.

Thank you so much Popcornbird!
About once a month or so. Neither of mine are very tolerant of it, and I dread it everytime. I think they sense my fear, and I wish I could hide it more.
Every three weeks. After I cut them I usually file them a little so that they are smoother. I don't worry when I do Bella because her nails are light colored and I can see the quick. When I first got Ripley his nails were VERY long and they are black. I have been taking just the tips off because I am afraid that the quick has grown way down. I did make him bleed once and I felt just awful. He has learned to trust me again though but I still don't think he feels very comfortable with the whole idea.
Thanks for reminding me! I always forget and probably don't do it enough .
I don't have a regular schedule.. I just clip them when I notice they need it
I should get into a routine though. Tasha keeps her own nails down somewhat on her own.

"All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king." - J.R.R. Tolkien
About every 1-2 weeks or as needed. I try to keep them as short as possible.
