My girls are 10 months old and they HATE to have their nails cut. To the point where they act like they are going to be murdered by the nail clippers! We have played with their paws since we got them to keep them used to people touching their feet, but that didn't seem to do the trick. We brought them to a groomers and it took 3 of us to keep each of them from strangling themselves. It was awful to see them so upset. The vet had a hard time too. She got a few nails on Betty by giving her treats, but Wilma wouldn't have any of it. She mentioned we may need to give them mild tranquilizers to get their nails cut. Has anyone had to do that before? I don't like the idea of giving them tranquilizers, but I also hate seeing them so distraught. Because of all the problems cutting their nails, we have put off taking them again for almost 2 months. They get walked everyday on asphalt, but i am concerned about the quick growing too much. Has anyone has any experience with this? Thanks!
