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:

Oh my!! I didn’t know that this was a pug thing! Now makes sense!! Bogus hates his nails being clipped. I get one or two while sleeping then have to wait for the next night!!

I agree with the person who mentioned walking your pug or any other type of dog. Walking your dog keeps their nails trimmed down and therefore keeps you from going nuts having to have their nails cut. I know because I walk my dog and always have had my dogs walked.

I have my pugs’ nails cut at petco. They don’t squirm though. I hate having my nails cut, but I don’t make noise like this pug..not out loud anyway.

So relieved it is not only my pug. My vet managed 6 nails on the last visit and 3 of us were covered in black hair.

I walk mine for 40min a day, but still find her nails sharp and puncturing my tops when she sits on my lap.

We always used a doggie drummel for keeping his nails down. It is like a human nail file but electric and for dogs

Mine is afraid too, but what I love about the Pug is, he never tries to bite anyone. Mine doesn’t either. They are such sweet souls.
