Free pets tip: Days 3–4: clippers appear, click once, still no cut (step 7 of 14 from "Nail Trim Without a Wrestling Match").
Clippers on the floor, then in your other hand, then you click them in the air after a paw touch — treat. Day 4: rest the clipper jaw on the nail without squeezing. Treat. If you are using a grinder, run it for 1 second two metres away, then closer, then touch the silent drum to a nail. Treat. If they leave the room, you moved too fast. Back up a day.
Keep sessions at 3 minutes. Kids and other dogs out of the room. You want one calm adult and a treat pouch. Do not 'just trim the one that is catching the carpet' on day 4. That is how you wipe days 1–3.
