And the boys were :angel7:

I could hardly believe it. Usually Reese needs to be muzzled. :shocked:

So of course they got a special treater when we got home. A busy bone. Kept them busy for an hour, and now they are zonked.:banana:

Great Job R&B!!!!! :cheer2:

My two continue to get better and better about that, the lady who does it is across the street at Pet Paradise, and she says that both continue to improve every time. She says they've figured it out that if they're calm it'll be over faster! :scratch:

:cheer2: :cheer2: That is wonderful Jill. I wish I can say the same. I have decided that as long as Rafi is out of town, mine will only get their nails cut one dog at a time, because I can't handle the two hooligans at the vets office by myself.

Everybody but Otto is an :angel7: about it and sooo well behaved. Otto tries to bite the technicians even when they're not touching his footies. They found it rather amusing how such a "big" dog, barking at all the dogs coming into the clinic like he owns the place, turnes into a big sissy about his little feet.

Ear stritches to you for being so good whilst getting your toes chopped off. :angel7:

I take my Hooligans to the groomer about every 3 weeks for their toe chops and butts squeezes. Maddie had gotten MUCH better. She used to screech even before the clippers touched her feet. Dolly has always done good with the toes, but she hates to have her butt touched so we have to soft muzzle her for that. She WILL gettcha if ya don't. I tell them they have to have a little more OOOMPH to their pooping, then we can forgo the butt (anal) squeeze. Each time they are really really FULL. TMI, I know.:boogie:

I am still able to clip the toenails on Heidi and Princess, but I think in a while I will no longer be able to do Heidi, she is much bigger than Princess, and it is becoming so so so hard to hold onto her and get a good grip on her paw and get the clipper correctly over the right portion of nail to be clipped. She is getting so bad, and I am afraid with all my twisting and turning and trying to get her still I am going to hurt her and not mean to do it..

I think Heidi might end up needing to go to the groomer for this,

what goooood boys. They could give Duchie lessons for sure. She has "touch me not" tootsies... and that ONE time I got a little too short because she wiggled on me... suffice it to say she never forgot and gives me the LQQK if I even think about it.
