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

I'm from NJ originally, but live in VT now for 11 years. My parents retired to Whiting (near Toms River), but are now looking to relocate here if they can. I've got lots of my husband's relatives in Wayne (where we grew up) and Sussex county too.
Are you in North or South Jersey? -
north jersey - grew up in Cresskill - small town way north - now am in park ridge

Your dogs look really big!! How big is Anzi? Our Miles is 32.5lbs… yours looks like he might have ours beat!!
-
he might - about that last time at vet - it depends how he sits he looks bigger or smaller - he needs to lose a few - big back yard but they both just choose to sit on the wall or in the chairs instead of run around! i throw balls to myself and they look at me and tell me to fetch!
