Hi all
My 6 year old Rotti x GDS will NOT let me clip his claws!!
When he was younger, I could slip his muzzle on and nip the ends off quickly and relatively hassle free. But as he got older it became more and more awkward and the stress levels began to increase every time, meaning I could only do one paw each attempt.
It’s now got so bad I can’t even clip one claw without him going postal!!
A friend suggested giving him a valium to calm him down a bit but I read somewhere that it can have the opposite effect with aggression issues?
Is this true? Or is there something better suited to the situation?
Thank you for your help
