Can I trim Daisy's toenails? She is 8 wks old. Seems like they catch on just about everything. or is she too young?

You can trim them. And getting her used to it now would be fantastic. Just be careful not to trim them too much. It helps if you have two people - one to hold her and one to do the trimming. This is what we did with Daisy. And we offered her her very favorite liver treats every other nail so she associated it with something positive. Now my daughter (15) does them by herself and paints them too

Chrissy is 7 weeks old and we trimmed hers. She didn't resist too much.
