| Great job! You're definitely more brave than me! I won't even attempt to cut Jaxon's. I know it would be a nightmare. Go shop - you deserve it.

| Congratulations!! Good for you! I've always trimmed my babies nails myself, the two older girls do great, no problem at all, but my little Joey and Izzie give me fits like you wouldn't believe. So yesterday I decided I would let my Vet Tech do it, she is so good with my dogs. They fought her for a while, but she was able to get it done and without the fear I have. The bad new is: IT COST ME $10 PER DOG!!!! I am going to do their nails from now on no matter what it takes to get it done. Little boogers!!!

I have to wrap her firmly in a towel so she cant squirm as much or use her legs to try and push away from me.

| Your alot braver than me!!! Rocky turns into "Kujo" if I try to clip his nails. Which is weird because the Vet Tech or the Groomer can clip his nails with no problems. |

| Shana, you are a brave one! I can't stand when my babes start to cry when I do it, so I can't do it myself, I don't have the heart!!!!! I tried the towel thing too, Cinderelly just wiggled her way out of it. Funny how a 3lb chihuahua is STRONGER THAN ME!!! LOL!! |

You are to be hugely congratulated for taking this great leap! Even though you had to wrap her to get the job accomplished, YOU DID IT! | |

| Celebrate! I took Gypsy to the vet's today to get her incision cked, and I mentioned I was going to the grooming area to see how much to do her nails. I hate to even think about doing them myself. They said they (the vet) would do it for me and charged me nothing! Yeah me!
