This is exactly how Finnigan is. I always feel so badly about it. He gets so worked up. I've tried doing it in the bathtub like some on here have suggested. I've tried never letting him see the clippers by bending his leg while clipping. I've had someone hold him... its so frustrating. I bought Pedipaws and Finnigan doesn't flip at the site of it like he does with toe nail clippers, but we still have to physically hold him still to use it. He thinks its a toy until you grab a paw.... he'll lick and play with it for treats even when its on, but you get it near his paw and he'll flip.
