Scissoring Tip

I use a disposable cutting board (a thin plastic sheet) to put under the dog's paws when I am shaping their paws. It allows my curved scissors to slide around the paw as I close the blades without catching on the ribs or textures of the table. I have the angle of the scissor set and slice and slide around the bottom of the foot. I used to use my Andis laminated blade guide sheet. I found the disposable cutting boards (I bought mine at a dollar store (two in the package) have a ever so slight texture so the doggies don't slide as much.
