They always do real good with her, she always comes out so cute, and it's never been over $40(bath, haircut, nail cut, blow dried, ears plucked)
I did that once for nail cut and it RUINED Jackson even MORE from getting his nails cut. They were not patient at all, they handled him rough... one person grabbed him, muzzled him, the other tried to cut his nails real quick. He expressed his anal glands - he was completely terrified. I feel awful for watching him go thru it, I should have just stopped them.

I had to completely re-start our training to de-sensitizing him to nail trimming and we are just now, almost two years later, getting better with it.
