Our dog is like Clifford. He kept growing and growing and is quite large. He is a mutt doggie... has a little bit of austrailian sheperd, black lab and who knows what else?? His paws are huge and he can't stand to have his nails clipped. I have tried and even started to do them when he was a puppy. He simply never liked it. He goes through 8 dog treats while I do them LOL!!
