My boyfriend's mom's dog is a golden-chow mix named Chewy and is very psyco about getting her toenails cut. I groom Chewy for her, but no matter what I do, she won't sit still long enough to have them cut. She is very afraid and we don't really want her to hurt herself. We want putting her under to be a last option, because she has a condition that makes anestheisa very risky for her, and we can't get her in they door to the vet anyways. Everytime I try to cut one of them, she thrashes around so much that her eyes go bloodshot. The toenails definitly need to be cut, because they are curling around and growing into her foot and she is limping very badly. We tried sedating her but that made her even more psyco and afraid. Does anyone have any suggestions???
