for you not them



Joking aside - Sometimes it helps to take your time - only do a little in one sitting and for really REALLY wiggly dogs - wrap them in a towel like a mummy and see if you can do it with them on your lap - I do Cheri and Chanels ears that way - Cheri is a wiggler and I find if she can look right at me she seems more relaxed

Another thing - if you can let them sniff the trimmers etc - turn them on and don't touch the dog - just to get them used to the noise - it really helps...
