[Gpdd] Behavior: Edgeworth and the Vet

A funny story about my Edgeworth that took place right before Christmas - 

I took Edgeworth to the vet we go to for his nail trimming a couple of days before Christmas. He likes to nip, and when I mentioned that to the person about to trim his nails, he said "I know, I remember this one." They're really good with piggies and say they don't mind the nipping. 

The guy vet was holding onto to Edgeworth while a woman was doing the trimming.  Edgeworth was nipping so I told him "Santa's watching, so you need to be a good piggy." Right after I said that Edgeworth latches on to the webbing between the guy vet's thumb and index finger! The vet let out a big "OWWWWWW!" and I was expecting there to be a bite mark but I didn't see any blood (whew!) After that, Edgeworth had this outraged look on his face, mouth hanging open and all. The rest of the trimming went without incident. Edgeworth also received all his Christmas presents so he must've been awfully good the rest of the year!
