Dog flips out when trying to trim her nails?

When your not cutting her nails, ex: while shes in your lap or playing with her, touch her paws, put your finger tips between her toes, then if she dose good give her a treat. Then start doing that with the trimmers, just tap the end of the trimmers to the nail and nothig else. Once your dog gets used to that, then you can start to clip them, but be sure when your doing all of this you giving the dog praise for being "such a good puppy" After your dog is used to the nail trimings, try and do it once a week, just the very tips, that way you are keeping the dog in routine and there less afraid to have it done next time. It just sounds like shes scared right now, it will get better, just dont give up.
