It does look a little over grown. This link explains how to do it. Important that you only take a little off at a time, so you don't cut into the quick.

If you put concrete blocks, pavers, or large rocks in your run, that will allow her to hone it on her own, which may help in the future to help keep it from getting overgrown again.
