Teaching Maya About Grinding Nails

This video is Maya's first lesson for having her nails filed as opposed to cut. Eventually it would change from "pedi-paws" to a dremel but for now, pedi-paws is quieter and has less vibration. I would not suggest you go buy pedi-paws. I just happen to have one. You can start the same way with a dremel but use a very low revolution speed. If you have any questions, let me know. Don't forget to "MARK" the good behaviour with either "YES" or a clicker if you want this to proceed quickly. Follow "YES" with a treat. The key word is follow. If you say "YES" and give a treat at the same time, you are no longer using proven scientific methods to train your dog. This is Classical Conditioning. Look it up if you don't know what that is.

Here's the video: https://youtu.be/xqjhMnECoYY
