Unfortunately this takes time and patience. I would play with her feet on a regular basis and constantly touch her in these areas to desensitize her. You can always try a calming supplement such as NaturVet Quiet Moments Calm Chews with Melatonin to see if this helps for the nail trims. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further.
