It's all about the nails

Raynor here: I sure have missed seeing everyone at Fidos For Freedom. But I will be back soon. :-)

Hi there! Guess what? I got my nails trimmed tonight! (and at the beginning, I was pretty certain, this was not the thing for me!) But then, Mom pulled out the magic pill pockets! Chicken! Yum! Gave me a little piece, then trimmed a nail. Gave me another little piece and trimmed another nail. I forgot all about not liking to have my feet messed with. It wasn't so bad at all! The Chicken Pill Pocket pieces, YUMMY! The nail clippers trimming my nails, not so much of a problem. (Having my nails trimmed is not one of my favorite things, and previous times, I've tried out my whirling dervish routine on Mom... she's pretty patient... I'm learning she can wait out almost anything.) Lucky for me, 'cause being a puppy, is a lot like being a baby, and even though I'm cute as all get out, I know I try Mom's patience on occasion... but that's what I've gotta do to Learn! (thanks Mom, for being patient. Mom also has to be really careful cutting my nails, as they are solid black, and it's really hard to trim them without cutting the quick. So far, she's not hit the quick yet! whew!)

Pictures will be coming .... camera battery's being charged. (hint to Mom, get a backup battery.... then you will be able to use your camera...) Lots of people want to SEE me!! I'm growing every day.

okay, look for pictures tomorrow.

sleepy puppy .... must say good night everyone!!

good night mom!

puppy kiss,

Raynor

  1. I have a couple of black nails, Raynor, but can tell you that Mom is very glad most of mine are lighter in color. It makes dremmeling much easier to do!

    Horray for learning to tolerate it! You will have your nails trimmed a great deal as an assistance dog. Gotta keep those feet in great shape!
