| Trimming feet I groom Penny myself. She lets me trim around her feet but will not hold still to clean the hair from between the pads. Does anyone have any tips? I am afraid I will hurt her when she struggles. That is the only area she fights me over. |

| I use the Conair Pro trimmer from Chewy.com. It is battery operated and I do both Bentley's feet pads and his ears. https://www.chewy.com/conairpro-dog-...immer/dp/43132 It is not expensive and is quieter than electric ones.

| I use a little tiny clipper that's battery operated but I have cut Callie before so make sure you properly oil the clipper.

| I have to take ladybug to the groomer for nail trims and she does the pads for free along with her bangs. |

| I use small scissors because I don't have clippers/shavers. How about giving her a treat each time you bring the trimmer close to her pads (without even trimming anything), then treat with the trimmer on the pad for a few seconds, etc? It'll be a slow conditioning process, but you'll get there
