I would recommend a vet visit for Pebbles. Sometimes a physical exam can help determine if she has been spayed or is intact. The other way to know is if she goes into heat. The groomers at Petco will cut nails but she must be current on vaccinations. A vet clinic can also cut her nails if you take her in for a wellness visit Good luck with her and thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach
