peanut butter on a spoon lol trust me that stuff is a miracle! Ripley is the same way, My BCs have always tolerated it. now blair is a differnt story! lol we picked up some tranqualizer from the vet when Happy was there, because the most we have managed to do at once was 6 nails, that took 3 people, several towls, a pillow, and about an hour.. I really dont care to go through that again!
