Any suggestions? I posted this on another thread yesteday but got no answers, Thanks
A few days after I brought my babies home I would turn the clippers on (with the cover on them) for just a few minutes a day. Then after a week, I would put the clippers on their feet (still with the cover on). Then I started putting the clippers near the ears (again with cover on) Then when they were no longer scared of it I would shave their paw pads, then I worked up to the bum, noo noo area, then the ears. It took longer for Tori than Lexi to be OK with the clippers...

Hope this helps some...
