Any tricks to clip my dogs nails? General Dog Discussions
Hi there,<br />
<br />
Does anyone have any tips I don't know about for clipping dogs nails?<br />
I feel like I have tried everything. I have a rat terrier mix and she just hates having her nails clipped.She is otherwise a very good dog.<br />
I have tried distracting her with treats, hiding the clippers from her view while I try and clip. Having my husband hold her while I do it, or wraping her in a towel, but she just won't stay still. <br />
She always manages to get away or she makes this horrible howling noise and won't keep her paws still.<br />
I think maybe when she was a puppy someone cliped her nails badly and hurt her, thats the only reason I can think of for her phobia.<br />
I try to take charge and make her feel comfortable but no luck!<br />
<br />
Anyway before I give up again and pay $15 at the groomers for clipping ,any advice?<br />
<br />
Thank you!<br />
