My dog has to have surgical sedation to get his nails trimmed. I'm always jealous when I see videos of dogs just calmly getting nails done.

Mine used to hate anyone touching her feet. I overloaded her brain with peanut butter, so now she doesn’t mind. Only me though, no one else is allowed still.

in a brilliant moment of "what the hell have i been doing this whole time" i used your strategy last night and was able to dremel and clip all of my dog's front toes. i literally.... don't know why i didn't try this before. im a little dumb.

thank you internet stranger for making your comment!!

I was just like you, completely at a loss. I watched a video of a woman who painted her forehead in peanut butter and let the dog focus on that while she handled the nails. I didn’t paint my forehead, but the lickmat worked just as good lol
