The video

In the video, the owner has the dog by the paw, clipper in the other hand. The stand-off between the two goes on for quite a while, as she holds the clipper, primed for action. She doesn't quite land the snip, but as she comes close, after a point, the dog appears to become drowsy and then slides onto its back as if coming over faint.

The hilarious video was posted by a TikTok user Aashin Khosla of her pet dog falling and fainting as she tries to trim the dog's nails. In the video, the dog shows his 'paww-worthy' performance by falling back as his owner tries to show nail clippers.

A similar video had come to light in the month of September as well-
