Zoe was a drama queen at the vet, nail trimmings and ear cleanings big time!!!I would just sit in bed with her with my clicker and treats and touch her foot and ear briefly, click, and treat. I would go through 20+ treats with just brief light touches and then moved onto holding the paw and ear, click, treat, and so on until she didn't react anymore. Then I broke out the cotton balls and clippers. Touched the ear/paw with them briefly, click, and treat. Then hold them on the ear/paw, click, and treat until finally I could clean one ear, click, treat, clip one toe, click treat. He is young and those things are rightfully foreign and scary- take it slooooow, make it fun, and treat/praise a lot
