Trimming nails on your Pug is not always a fun job. Some pugs are reluctant, even terrified of getting their nails trimmed.
Some even starts screaming, yelping, and moving around constantly. You fight tooth and nails (no pun intended) to get their nails cut… the ultimate challenge of grit and persistence.
Have you ever experienced the pleasure of trimming a pug's (or any reluctant dog's / animal's) nails?
Well, this 2nd year veterinary student, Roberta who's studying at the Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine at Tufts University sure can relate!
Check out her hysterical synopsis of trimming a pug's nails on the next page:

I use a Dremel to file my pug’s nails. The groomer does them once a month and I try to do them once a week in between.

Kunia Hated having her nails trimmed. It would take 3 assistants to hold her. I went to 4 vets , one she got lose from$#%&!@* and bit the vet, 2nd one charged almost double the 2nd time. She loved you till you touched her nails, then it was WAR.

My pugs, a 6yr old & a 7 month old roll over and let me trim them & drummer them. I’ve been doing them every two weeks since I got them.

My pug puts her head on my shoulder and the tech clips away. Of course she is breathing like she is having a heart attack but she had always been very good, just really nervous. As long as I hold her she does pretty good

Hilariously true! My pug had hers trimmed just today, I leave the room because I can’t handle her dramatics.
