If she can tolerate a little bit of peanut butter, you might try spreading a thin film of it head-high on the refrigerator door (I used about half a finger dollop spread across 10-12 inches or so while Savannah was getting used to clipping). By this time, Holley probably knows that the refrigerator is the source of wonderous things. The thin film keeps her nose and tongue busy, but she will wiggle. Work quickly, but carefully. I highly recommend clipping after walk and before dinner.
If she cannot tolerate even that much peanut butter, you could try any strong-smelling occasional treat. Something like little-bitty pieces of two-day old lunch meat ham might work (real ham doesn't excite Savannah nearly as much). This is harder than peanut butter because now your fingers will smell like ham. Again, I recommend after walk and before dinner.
If you want to avoid the treat concept entirely, some of the postings on a different nail thread recommended waiting until your puppy is asleep. We have had mixed results on this one. If I do this, I have to make sure that Savannah is really, really tired. Usually that means an extended play session with her doggie friends followed by a walk somewhere new with lots and lots of unfamiliar smells, i.e. physically AND mentally exhausted. When she is finally asleep, I sit down next to her and put my hand on her shoulder for a bit so she knows I am there and doesn't get startled. Once she falls back asleep, I'll run my hand down her leg and calmly clip a few nails. I am not a big fan of disturbing anyone's sleep, so we don't try this much, but you may have better luck. You may want to search some of the other threads for more on 'sleep clipping'.
We never get all her nails in one sitting no matter which technique I use. Sometimes she is just too uptight for us to cut any of them. In those cases (since the bad timing was my fault), I tap the top of her nails (but don't clip) on one or two paws with the clippers and still give her a treat.
Good luck!
