I'm also curious to hear if anyone has tried this. I saw this post just after we were in a battle with our own "raging bull" while trying to clip his nails. He is insane sometimes. I have taken him to the vet recently for nails and it takes two adults to hold him and do it there...and even that doesn't seem to be enough!
They sure are feisty...
I tried wrapping my dog in a towel to put his ear drops in when we were treating a recent infection. I felt like it was safer, like I would be less likely to hurt him when he was held like that. He was still pretty bad though...
