In fact, I touch their feet alot when we're playing or if they're just sitting on my lap. After they are nice and relaxed, I hold them on my lap and my husband clips their nails (one dog at a time, of course  ). They get treats when they are all done. Also, trimming their nails after a bath seems to make it a little easier because the nails are softer.
Good luck, I know what you're going through! |
Thank you so much for your tips and suggestions Selina! They are greatly appareciated!
It looks like I have a few new techniques to try with Stedman when trying to trim his nails. I surely hope that one of them works and that I am able to get the job done...I can't stand seeing his nails knowing that they need trimmed so badly!
