I groom and trim my own dogs but having short haired hounds its not that much work

I always trim my dogs nails, Hannah loves it so much that everytime she sees me filling and painting my nails she comes over to get hers done to. She will ever go and show my parents her nails when Im finished painting them. She puts her paw and gets all happy when they say "oohh pretty nails"

Copper is a different story, he was neglected and abused he hadn't had them done that much and doesn't like his done I need someone to help me hold him.

I don't see anything wrong with taking your dog to the vet.

And Logan I can relate with you and I understand why you wont trim your dogs nails, I had alittle accident with Hannah a coulpe weeks ago I was cutting her nails and my sisters pup came running in and Hannah jurked and I cut her nail to short. It started bleeding and I didn't know how to stop it, the vet said to put some thick cream like vasaline or cow balm on the end to stop the bleeding and wrap it up. It stopped the bleeding but everytime she went outside and walked on it alittle it would start again. It was scary but thankfully she still loves to get her nails done So don't feel bad, your not a wimp
