  1. Too cute! And true.

    Wow - her nails are nice and short! Blueberry's nails grow crazy long. Despite our hiking and walking - I have to really work to keep them pared back. It's really strange - when I first adopted her, her nails looked quite a bit like Ruby's and yet she was pretty inert during her months in rescue.

    1. I've tried to be really diligent about keeping up with Ruby's nail trims - her dew claws worry me because they grow fast and she tends to rub her eyes a lot. My previous dogs' nails were always too long and they were black so it was a scary endeavor. I even bought one of those electronic "Quick Finder" clippers and it didn't work at all. It was showing the red alert light when I was nowhere near the nail. Ruby's being white make the task much easier.

    1. Thank you for stopping by, Lindsay! I try to clip Ruby's nails every few weeks to keep on top of it. Her quick being visible makes it so much easier.
