[DwayneNLiz]

some of them were able to move freely in the little tube they were in, so those will prob have wretched ACs, or be scrambled, but i will check ACs when i get home from work

The last 3 boxes of eggs I have relieved were all crushed and all had at least one broken egg in them and horrid ACs. Still miraculously hatched about 70%+
That is only thanks to awesome packers sending amazingly fresh eggs.

Hey all

Once upon a time (I was falling in love, but now I'm only falling apart) there was a dog that wasn't getting proper grooming. The matted fur was fixed easily enough. The nails were not so easy. They could either by cut all the way down while under anesthesia at the vet (and pain pills for a few days after), or cut as often as possible at home.
Well... I have not been cutting often enough, and I really need to know. Just how often CAN I cut the nails? Is weekly too much?

I lost my first girl today, Skye. She got out of the run somehow and my Doberman got her. I am heartbroken and feel so horribly guilty. She was 19 weeks old this week. She died on the way to the vets office.

I don't blame my dog- his prey drive is extremely high and it is instinctual. Still sucks...

Weekly should be fine

Depends on how active the dog is. Rather they run on concrete of just have lawn to play on. Every two to three weeks works for us just don't cut below the quick and have cornstarch on hand if it bleeds. If the nails are light colored you can see the quick real easy.

It's absolutely pouring outside. This is what came down last night not including the downpour we are getting right now. The new dam on the pond didn't hold. I've rebuilt it but it's probably going to go again. Will need concrete bags lined up in it to hold I'm afraid.
