I am the same way. I do most of Hueys grooming myself, but I absolutely am unable to do his feet and nails. He fights, squirms, runs away, and has even acted like he wanted to nip. It is not worth it to me to even try any more. Apparently, though, I am the only one. Both his groomer and the vet techs who have trimmed his nails all state that he is a complete angel and they don't understand why I can't do it...when Troy's nails are trimmed by a professional, are you within view of him? I find that if Huey can't see me, he does much better. Also, i prefer that they use the dremel as the sharp snipping sound of the clippers seems to startle him more than the constant drone of the dremel. |
