Status Quo....

Not much going on to speak of but figured some of you are probably checking in regularly despite getting ready for the approaching holiday season. Personally, I've been working on some electronic housekeeping. Basically a computer clean up and purge of duplicate or otherwise unneeded "stuff". Not sure what's worse, cleaning a computer or a large catch all closet. I think they're comparable. For the computer, I'm dealing with photos... zillions and zillions, it seems, of photos of Dobermans. Included are shots of my own as well as previous litters and photos of those litters people have sent or I've hacked off various FB pages, Instagrams etc. The daunting task at hand is to go through them, delete the unknowns, the blurry and the less than great shots of which there are many. From there, it's on to organizing the keepers. Next step getting not only my own dogs pages updated but also the pup pages of past litters. A job that's been on my to do list for so long it's kind of turned into a snow ball. I figure since Winter is nearly upon us, there's no better time than now to play with the snowball. A couple hours each evening and soon, hopefully, things in my electronic world will be good as gold. And the best part...  the snowball I'm playing with is only an analogy! Finally today we had a rain free day and pleasant temps. With the thought of real snow a complete impossibility. 

As far as the current litter goes, the pups were treated today to a nail trim and some extra long cuddles. This done while Remedy took a break and played outside. A surprise of sorts for her. I have no doubt the nail trim was more appreciated by her, rather then them. Noticed when she returned to greet her clawing and clambering ever growing babies. Baby's with claws... and now teeth! :-) 

While we're on the subject of nails though... and photos...  both crossed my path today and for that reason, it's what I'll share. Not sure if any of you have experience with Dremels, but I for one highly recommend them. When your pups come home to you, they'll essentially have no nails. They're clipped down to the paw line while under anesthesia for their crops. Sounds terrible but I assure you once awake they demonstrate absolutely no sign of discomfort. They're off and running as soon as their feet hit the ground. But once you get them home, nail care should begin. Prior to them needing anything further done to their nails is the perfect time to get them used to the idea of nail care. Play with their paws, and if you choose to use one when the time comes, take the  opportunity to get them use to first the sound and then slowly the vibration of the Dremel. And as they grow, if you ever hear the sound of nails hitting the floor those nails are way overgrown. Stay on top of them, starting at an early age and you've won the battle before one ever rears it ugly head. The photos below are examples of perfect Doberman feet and nails...  The two photos on top shown with dew claws are correct for European standard.  Your pups however will come without per the American breed standard. Two nails you won't have to worry about going forward. If this information is helpful to even one person reading this, I've done my job for the day.....

Thanks for the reminder and tip about nails! I had one puppy who was not happy about having her paws touched for what reason we never knew....so we tended to let her pass a few nail clipping appts when the others had theirs clipped. We thought we were being kind to eliminate her stress level but, wished we had worked better when she was a puppy to get her over the fear. When we would take her we would tell her it will be ok and she'll like it better after! The truth being from what you said in your blog...the noise nails make on hardwood or tile floors!! She definitely could never sneak up on anyone!! Haha! 😄 and Poppy wasn't that good of a 'tap dancer!' Bless her xx

Live and learn Karen and Kevin... I don't doubt we've all had a pup or two who offered a bit of resistance to nail care. But it is true... if started when young it's just another thing that becomes common place for them avoiding a fight altogether. Just have to be careful not to hurt them while doing it. That's another reason I like the Dremel. No way to accidentally go too deep.
