I really didn't care if he bonded with the groomer, as long as his needs were met without harm done to him. And the groomer understood.
I have never felt comfortable with my level of expertise at nail clipping. All our dogs have relied on groomers for that.

I agree. BUT, we found a solution on Amazon 2 months ago. Oster Pet Nail Grinder. It comes with guides you size to your pet. Harry lets my wife do his nails a couple of times a week. No more "click, click, click."
