It's important to get dogs used to it when they're pups...especially low activity dogs like Bulldogs. I cut our dogs nails every week. He doesn't like it but we give him a treat afterwards & they have long memories :)
The most important thing to do is to do it regularly & only take a small amount off. The longer the nails get, the longer the quick gets. It takes weekly trimmings for the quick to recede.
Also, when you're watching TV, just keep the trimmer in your hand & click it every so often so they get used to the sound. Pretend you're trimming your own nails with it.
They're pretty smart & when you cut them too short...they remember! :)
