I have tried and tried again, every suggestion I have heard...

not happening! So now I make an appt at my groomers she usually does it for free, in between visits,, Sometimes she has to GET on the table and put a leg around his body to hold him,, IT was ugly, I witnessed it.. She said He isn't THAT bad, that she has ones that are worse,, I can't imagine.
So, needless to say when she was done wrestling him.. I gave her $ 10.00 dollars, she said "that's too much", I said " Oh no, that's not near enough"
I don't even attempt it anymore, it is impossible,and then I dont have to deal with him being MAD at me for an hour or so.
