My wrestling match with my polar bear

Well it was nail clipping day for Buddy my Great Pyrenees. he won't let me or hubby do his nails, so off to the vet we go!

So we get there and the Vet tech told me to put him in a headlock. "Don't mind if I do"

He starts with his numorus dewclaws. Let me tell you this dog has so many dewclaws its amazing. He has 3 on each back leg and 2 on each front leg.

Buddy starts wiggling so the tech said lets put him on the table and do them. "Are you crazy, he's like 100 something pounds." And the tech lifted him up on the table. "Okay". He then proceded to tell me that we needed to lay him on his side and that he was going to do a wrestling move and he grabbed the front and back leg that was on the tech's side and rolled Buddy on his side and He told me I had to grabbed the legs and take over the hold. No problem. YEAH RIGHT.

It was like wrestling with a baby polar bear. Buddy was wiggling and squirming. I use all my strength the subdo him. Well the tech finished and we were on our way.

NOW this morning I'm so sore, by biceps and shoulders are pounding.

I was going to go workout that day but assumed I got my workout from Buddy. And I sure did.
