#1: Groom your dog after a long walk or a heavy play session. They’ll be tired and less likely to fight off an ear cleaning or nail trimming.

#2: Brush before bathing to eliminate tangles. It’ll make bath time quicker and speed up drying time.

#3: Spread some peanut butter on the shower wall to get your pup to stay still(ish).

#4: For the dog that really hates to have its nails trimmed, try a change of scenery! Try trimming nails outside while your pup is distracted by flying birds or noisy cars.

#5: Use a squeegee to remove dog hair from carpets and upholstery.
