Toenails & Fur on Feet

Treat, treat, treat. Touch, treat, touch, treat. Build up to where you can clip a nail, treat. It worked this way for my Noah.
 
I started working with Jocu to get him used to the Dremel. I would do his paws in the bathroom so the other shelties wouldn't bother us.
when we were recently in PA at my dad's house, I decided to dremel on the porch so we wouldn't make a mess in the house. I did one of Jocu's paws and gave him some cookies. Cranberry saw that and said- I like cookies- do mine:yes: I had started with Dixie before that because she will pretty much do anything for cookies:winkgrin:
so now I can do all of them:yes:
 
My dogs used to be great getting their nails done. But lately, not so much. Somewhere along the way they had both a bad grooming experience that has made it difficult to groom them.

I wait for them to be sleepy in the evenings. I am also experimenting with a Thundershirt. Put one on Indy the other night he just flopped over. Nail clip was easy.

No good on Bacca though...it made his HE worse.
