  • @Evelyn2Cute1 no it sttings rally bad

  • It's a great idea to hold the dogs foot back like shoeing a horse that way the dog cant see what you are doing and dosent get nervous, if you are holding the dogs foot up in front of him its like saying look I'm about to do something to your foot!

  • Is using alcohol okay if it bleeds? Because I use alcohol on my rabbit's nails just in when it bleeds

  • 0:50 "and then......watch for any BLEEDING?????"

    EXCUSE ME????

    I think your DOG will tell you about any bleeding before you even have a CHANCE to look!!!

    (That cracked me up!!)

  • I wish my dog were that calm about it.

  • Hey if you live in southern california and are looking for a great dog service with fun outdoor outings to parks, beaches, hikes, pool parties, and to dog friendly locations, check us out... you can find our youtube channel at DESPERATEPAWSOFOC and see all the types of your dog receives in our service. Best of all we clean their ears, comb them, wipe them down with hypo-allergenic wipes, trim their toe nails, and even give them a bath all included. Check it out!

  • he's not a real doctor

  • I have a 5 pound pom,who turns into a snarling beast,although he is fine with other grooming.

    It upsets me greatly that i have to pay the vet £15 to do it.

  • IgorL021 - you need to get your dog accustomed to being handled and get him to make the association that nail clipping is a good thing. A quick search on here or google will help you find what you need to know.

  • hes probably just shedding. labradors and dogs with long coats tend to shed A LOT. you should buy a de-shedding comb to get all dead hair out.
