Our newest dog (6mo old now) will not let us clip her toenails. I took her to the groomer and she freaked out, peeing all over the place and even squirting out anal gland liquid. Pew!!
Today dh and I tried and you'd think we were trying to tear into her soft underbelly and eat her alive the way she fought us! Tonight I will administer some kind of relaxant, melatonin or benadryl and see if we can get it done. At least she'll be sleepy for bed if it doesn't work.
Next step, the vet and sedation. Dogs are really odd creatures sometimes.
One of our dogs screams like we are cutting her toes off with rusty scissors if we try to trim with dog nail clippers, but will lie there quietly if we use the dremel with a course drum sanding tip. The other, panics if the dremel comes withing 3 feet of her, but doesn't mind the clippers.
Dogs!
