My dog - Staffordshire Bull Terrier - who is very very OK with people handling him, became deathly afraid of getting his nails trimmed after a trip to another groomer.  In fact, to get them trimmed, I had to take him to the vet to get sedated.  He's never been boarded before, and had to do it once, so I chose Two Paws Up.  I let them do his nails hesitantly, but he really needed them done.  I let them know that if he fought it, it was OK.  I'd take him to the vet.  When I got back, his nails were done, and he was a very happy dog.  It says so much when your dog come out happy!
