OMG the trauma tonight.....I am always reminded why I am a Very Bad Owner and don't do it often enough when I try cutting the greyhound's claws....
Hoover has fabulous feet and claws which never need cutting, I trimmed his dew claws tonight and he waved his front paws in my face to try and stop me but otherwise didn't move
Flick has horrible long feet and naturally long claws which are all black so are a nightmare.... only made one bleed tonight thank goodness, and she helpfully pulled out one dew claw last year so only one of those to cope with now....luckily she is very good and lets me get on with it
Islay has broken her toes/feet so often now that her claws are really mis-shapen and are of different thicknesses, all black again, but she is a wise old soul by now and again lies still and lets me get on
Amy has absolute hysterics every time you try to even think about cutting her claws, and goes the full way wriggling/trying to escape/trying to bite.... after explaining to my other half that you have to be firm, and being nice doesn't work, I just about got her dew claws done then gave up! Luckily her feet are reasonable most of the time, she is now staring at me reproachfully because clearly I have tried to kill her....
