Hi John! My Binti will only consent to have her nails ground and only with treats (she gets one per paw.) She hated it at first but once we had the routine established, she settles right into it. The only thing I would say about using the grinder is keep pausing to feel the claw. I once had a "groomer" who was in a hurry hold the grinder to Binti's claw too long and the friction built up heat which burned her enough to make her yip. We started doing it at home after that.0_1609705288646_1Binti orchids1.jpg

Welcome to the forum - can you tell us the parents and birthday of Nugget so I can be sure such a handsome girl is included in the on-line Basenji pedigree database (see signature block and post me direct per email if you prefer) -

Nugget is beautiful!!!! Welcome to both of you!

Hi, Lynne. So glad you are here. You certainly are a pretty girl. Tell Mom the best things in life are a challenge!

@lynnecnm - You should have your pup DNA tested for Fanconi, it is a cheek swab test that you do and cost 65.00. You can order the test at www.ofa.org and welcome to the Forum!
