| I did it!! I know this sounds petty but I groom my own dogs hair because I am too afraid of a groomer messing it up. Tonight I finally tried to clip their nails just to see if I could.(This is the one thing I have had my vet do because I was to scared to make my babies bleed or hurt!) I did it!!! I clipped all 4 paws on each of them and they didn't even care! They gave me kisses the whole time and just sat in my lap! Then afterwards when I was so excited they were jumping all in my face trying to give me all the kisses they could I did it! I can offically cut nails without hurting my babies! Yay us!!!

| Congratulations! I'm jealous... mine do not like getting their nails trimmed. I've resorted to trimming more often (hoping they will become used to it) so I can trim just the tips

| I am actually shocked! I thought they would whine and try to wiggle but they sat there like I was giving them a good rub down and were giving kisses! I don't want to jinx it though so *knock on wood*

| That's great, I would love to learn how and also have confidence enough to do it Good for you, I think the more I can do for my boys the closer it makes us, I'm just silly like that though |

| Congrats! I wish I could do the nails. Maggie starts screaming even before I show her the clippers, lol.
