We have a five year old australian shepherd. Cutting her toenails is always an ordeal, for us but I think more for her. She's alright with having her feet touched but toenails are a no-no. When she was small, I used to touch her feet all the time to try and get her used to it. I did some checking here and now know that the front paws are sensative for a dog. She's not aggressive when we do it, she just puts up a fight trying to pull away. Is there something else I can do to help calm her? I've thought about getting sedatives or something from the vet but Rosie has such a sensitive stomach I really don't want to do that. She does spend a lot of time running outdoors and I thought that would wear down her claws (they're more like eagles talons) but that doesn't do anything. Thanks for any advice. Marg
