Presto doesn't love it either. He said "hell no!" on the dremel, which we'll keep working on. So, clippers it is...for now.
I always do this when he's tired, but not cranky puppy tired, and have done the following.
(Most successful because he loves peanut butter) Heavy plate or pan or cookie sheet with peanut butter smeared all over it, put on floor, let him lick while I clip.
Sprinkle food on the floor and let him search and eat while I clip.
Kong with frozen wet food held down by my leg while he eats and I clip.
There are some good cooperative care trainings by Dr. Deb Jones and Sarah Stremming (Perfect Patient is her term).
For tooth brushing and ear stuff, a chin rest is a good tool (plus it's cute).
