As early as possible, you should start to get your puppy/dog use to being handled. He must learn to trust you and others to manipulate varies parts of his body for his own health and safety. You want to be able to touch all parts of him including his paws, ears, mouth, collar and tail.
In this 4 week class, we will teach you how to gradually expose your dog to handling exercises (including nail trims). You will work towards teaching your dog to build an association that handling is a good thing, he will learn to look forward to being handled by you and others.

Handling Your Dog Nail Trims Grooming
Grooming Tools
Question of the day: What is your favorite all around grooming tool?
Answer: I would definitely have to go with the FURminator tools. Those are by far my favorite and the best grooming tool I have. Well worth the money and does an amazing job with shedding dogs! Ive tried several brushes, 3 of my dogs not many worked on, I always figured they must just not shed that much. I got the FURminator and wow! Im now getting hair out of them! The dogs love it too, most wait their turn (or try to take their turn now) even if theyve already been brushed. They want to go again. It seems to be very relaxing for them as though they are at the spa getting a nice massage. Definitely Highly recommended by me! It has been an all around brush, works for my short haired Weimaraner up to my longer haired German Shepherd. If you can only buy one brush, go with this one!
If your looking for one with a little less price to it, go with this one:
This one is designed more for the long haired dogs:
