I keep my pup's nails short enough that they don't reach the surface he's walking on. I hate the sound of dog nails hitting the ground.
Oh how I wish I could stay ahead of the nail trimming game (more like war). Oji is RIDICULOUS about it. I agree though, I hate the sound of their nails on the floor, and it was my goal to keep them short enough to avoid that, and avoid a lot of the damage to the wood floors. You'd think if you started with a young pup and got them used to it – especially a super duper working Doberman who's supposed to be very stoic and have great pain tolerance – you'd be able to succeed. Alas. :(

I do The Doctor's once a week at least, but didn't get it done yesterday so at the vet today I had them do it just to save me the hassle. He was fine until they started doing his front nails and then he went to growling!! The vet started telling me about how I need to work with him on that and all this stuff... I just nodded and said we do paw work daily.

Lol it's true I like "bomb" proof dogs so I do as many annoying things to them as possible cuz you never know what little kid will come up and pull on your dogs face or ears and so on. With the feet I always play with the paws and pinch on the toenails. I would put my hands and such in the food bowls. I would hold bones and take them away and give back so they didn't get possessive over things like that and they know just cuz it's taken from me doesn't mean I won't get it back. Lol even my small dog will get his nails trimmed like its no big deal:)
 
Oh, I do the same things. The only thing that he is being slow about is his paws and we spend extra time on it everyday. It wasn't our usual vet today, so I just did the head nod. I have my kids as the test subjects for everything to see how he will react to children coming up to him and he is typically very well behaved, but since he started teething he has gotten a hair up his butt and goes crazy randomly.
 
Finally got a phone today!!! It was a horribly long 6 weeks, but having this brand new iPhone 6s makes it worthwhile, hehe.

The Doctor tried his hand at helping to move some tree limbs today.

He found them too be rather tasty, so I made him stop. Mean mommy.

He did sit nice and still for a picture though, so he wasn't too upset. Question: do any of you other red owners deal with people always calling your dog a chocolate? I try to not let it bother me, but...

Oooohhh adorable
 
The doctor is absolutely adorable. How can you ever say no to that face? Lol... I've never had a red so I've never dealt with being called a chocolate... I can see where that would be annoying though. Around here I get a lot of "you have a skinny Rottweiler" because of the floppy ears... So I can relate to trying not to let something bother me!

I was just thinking yesterday that I wish I had taken a picture of my pup posed in the same spot every month birthday. That would be cool to see.
I did some comparison shots in the same spot on the couch, similar position... But not methodically :-( I'm not even sure how far apart the pics are lol... I'll have to figure out in my gallery settings if it shows me somewhere the date they were taken. Was just thinking I need to dig them out!

Here I found a few of her with our basset over the last few months lol... The basset hasn't changed size so you can easily see how much mischa has grown!

The night we brought mischa home (about 12 weeks old)

Adorable !!!

Lol neither was thrilled for the staged shot I just took. Now that mischa is so much bigger misty doesn't like sharing the couch. And mischa knows she's not supposed to bother misty on that couch, which is why she has that look lol
