Dexter's nails are the correct length thanks to ME.
Now, don't think I'm a horrible dog mom, because I try on a regular basis to cut his nails. He is such a big baby and SO terrified of nail clippers. I have no idea why, as I have never cut the quik (sp?). I had the vet do it at our last appointment, and it took me and the assistant to hold him while the vet clipped. I mean the dog is the biggest wimp there ever was!
Tonight I just couldn't handle looking at them, so I gave Tory a handful of lunchmeat turkey to occupy Dexter, and I went to work on his feet. I cannot believe how good he was! We put him in a down/stay, Tory held his fist closed with turkey in it and let Dex nibble it the whole time, and he didn't even seem to notice me cutting his nails!
I'll be honest, I'm more proud of myself than I am of Dex. I've tried everything I can think of, and finally I found something that works.
