Course Details
3 WEEK CLASS - Do you struggle to shorten your dog’s nails? This is one of the most challenging care procedures for most owners (even experienced trainers), so you are in good company. For 3 weeks we will totally focus on helping your dog become more comfortable with paw handling & nail trims.
In this course we will address handling the legs, paws, & nails, introducing tools, and combining it all. The course consists of step by step progressions to make success easy at every stage of training.
Our goal is not just to shorten nails; but to help our dogs develop calm, confident relaxation while we work on their nails. Once our dogs develop comfort and trust in the process everything gets much easier!
If you’re just starting out, are stuck in the process & don’t know what to do next, or have had negative experiences and want a fresh start, this course is for you!
