Question
Good day to you dear i have 8 months old shih tzu,i want him to be groomed by myself but when he see scisor he keep on biting the scisor and he really hyper,can i give him sedatives so that he sleep and i can groomed him? thank you so much and more power

Answer
Check with your vet for a sedative. They should be able to give you a type that will still allow you to groom him.  But please remember that your dog is a puppy and will act like this until he gets use to grooming.  The key here is patents.
