Okie dokie....thanks for the tips, Marsha! As I told Cindy, I'll have to get the hubby to help with Nina, cause it took the vet and his assistant to cut Nina's nails today. She didn't fight them, but it just made it easier for the assistant to hold her while the vet clipped them. I've been very lucky. I found a vet who I really like, and his staff is awesome, too. Plus, where most of the vets in the area are charging $100 or better to spay/neuter, they only charge $80. (The vet I used to go to went from $80 to $149 in just the past three years!) The vet I'm going to now told me today they try to keep their rates down as a community service. THAT makes me feel like they are in the veterinary business because of their love of animals, and NOT for the almighty dollar.
Thanks again for all your help, Marsha! Susan --- In [email protected], "marsha" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > I use the smaller fingernail clippers on my chis. My chis range from 3 pounds to 7 pounds and I think their nails are too small for dog clippers. I have also began cutting my puppies nails, they are 4 weeks old and range from 9 oz to 1 pound. > > I would recommend cutting once a week or once every two weeks if you can, that way it is just a trim as opposed to a cut. However, I am a bit lazy, lol. I actually don't get around to doing mine but about once a month! Not nearly enough. > > Marsha " Lets talk about our wonderful little friends! Join today! " Yahoo!
