Pictures of Hannah!!

Here are some pics of Hannah on her second day home (she STILL hasn't even tried to bite me)




Here are some pics of her bathtime, she doesn't know what to think of baths yet I think she never had one before, but she seems to enjoy them........

Ya I too was a little concerned about her nails, they are not shrp or anything but I am afraid of trimming them too close till they bleed, besides I want to get her used to me before I attempt to do something like trimming hernails........LMB

Alternatively, find some nail polish that won't harm her... lol
I am kidding, of course.

lol, you could always ask a vet or pro groomer to clip them for you :) around here a nail trim costs like $10 at the groomer's, vets are much more expensive. i would be scared of those nails breaking on a toy or something then bleeding. being that long, they prob have a long quick, so it would prob be best to do a gradual trim.

I have no problem trimming them myself in fact I am fairly knowledgeable about the Quick but I dont have much knowledge on how to do the gradual trim, some info on that would be appreciated............LMB

to do a gradual trim, you just trim a little bit each time you do her nails. little by little the quick will recede if you clip the nail right where the quick ends, keep doing this until they are at a normal length. i would clip maybe once a week until they are a good length.
