Hehe i'm about to do all of the furbabies nails while dinner is cooking. Shhhhh....don't tell them
Hehe they're really not bad about having their nails trimmed at all though- they're soo used to it. Except Whiskey -he's terrified of the nail trimmers- well he's terrified of everything but still.
so he gets a puppy treat every time he gets his nails done
Jasmine is going to be sooo ticked!

Three down, two to go
I just did Velvets (she's the best! She will literally sit there and hold her paw out
what a good girl!! Then i did Kojak's- he was a good boy too! And then Jasmine- she was ticked off afterwards- but i can't say i blame her -her former owners declawed her before dumping her off at the old shelter i used to volunteer at
So she hates having her paws touched- including her back ones with nails....so i give her lots of treats afterwards. I think i will get Colin to hold Whiskey when he gets home tonight so i can trim his nails. And Isabella- well, i have no clue where she's hiding at the moment- so when i find her i'll get her nails
/ Fosters trims his own nails so i don't have to
Just smooth them out every now and then with a file.

not a problem
send um to me! i'm used to giving "pedicures"
i always get the shelter furbabies every thursday when i'm able to. (i try to trim them after their spay/neuters when they're knocked out....or get the ones who haven't had surgery when i get free time. my least favorite nails to trim are those attached to very nervous/jumpy dogs- they're the worst because a lot of them have darker nails making it hard to see the vein. when in doubt i just get the tip.
