Paige joined us outside for some chores yesterday. We added fresh bedding to the coop, fed the chickens some snacks (and Paige got some too!) And took a ride in the mule (utility vehicle) to grab some compost that's been brewing out back for a year 1/2+ from the older chicken bedding... perfect for the garden. This was her after work was done. At dinner time and after dinner games. She was wooped from all that fun and adventure lol.

It was still light out and 40° when we went to bring the horses in for the night, so we brought the dogs with us.

Looks like a pretty sunset, huh? :)

As I yell to him, (he is far!) he comes, kicking up a little sand.

Drowsy Dingo got her rabies booster today. She has a chipped molar we've been keeping an eye on for a year or two and the vet today actually recommended it be removed (after this 'apocalypse') before it creates an abscess. Luckily our insurance covers dental work so I'll try and get it scheduled for later this year. The first thing she said when she called (I was waiting outside in my car) was how impressed she was at how short I've been able to keep her nails! I promptly told my husband who thinks I'm slightly obsessed with them :rolleyes:

Do you have a close up of her nails. I have been using the dremel, 1st one was a pet brand then last week I started using our regular one. I must admit, I fell short on doing this weekly when she was a younger pup, I did it but not as often as I should have apparently. The vet did it a few times but with the way the training/work schedules played out it wasn't every 2 weeks or every month. She does settle and allow me to dremel but that's only if she has something to occupy her (bag of treats/deer leg, etc). But I don't really ever she the "white circle" I've read about/seen on you tube. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Ugh, Buddys 'white circle' or quick seems like its always right there! I can't get them short enough! I guess somewhere down the road I let them get too long. Now it seems the quick has too.:banghead:
 
I'm trying to do it weekly now that I am out of work at the moment. Hopefully that will get the quick to recede further back each week. Good luck to you @MyBuddy

One trick is to dremel the top of the nail near the tip after trimming. I forgot where I read this. I trim weekly. First I use a normal clipper and take slivers off until I see the white fiber. Then I dremel all around. A new sharp nail clipper will make it easy to cut thin slivers off without much effort too.
