We really need to cut her nails but she is so unbalanced now she doesn't like her front legs being touched at all. Even when I pick her up and am supporting her chest and her back, she is frantically grabbing at me with her legs because she doesn't feel balanced in her front end (and she can't feel the back). So I'm worried to try clipping her nails if she's going to freak out and start squirming and twisting, which is hard on her and on us. I wonder if I could ask them to do that while she's at rehabilitation? Apparently she's really calm as she's getting massaged. |
Definitely ask them about clipping them. I'm sure they do it all the time.
