Good vet/grooming experience

I called around to my local vet offices to see what they would charge for nail clipping. I have four girls and no one to help hold them while I do the cutting. I also have a sheltie that had a mat on her bottom that I couldn't get myself with scissors. The lady at the exotic vet office said $10 each. I will pay a friend to come help, I know it would be cheaper than $40! The office that I take my dog to for everything including grooming said $5 each and they would work on the mat also. So off I went last night. My girls put smiles on the face of every person in there! Even customers that were waiting had a million questions and I told them for more info to come here. It took 20 minutes and they were done even with Chloe's bottom. $10! I will save myself the stress and sweaty hands from now on and take them there.

Re: Good vet/grooming experience

That's good. I called an animal hospital in New York City that specialized cavies and they were going to charge me 41 bucks per gp - that's crazy. So I have to drive an hour to Long Island to have their nails clip for 5 bucks each.
