    Morning all, Sorry to say this but no wind here and it's clear blue sky! :D

    I guess I am going to have to get used to being mugged by those 2 accomplices every morning this week! I was determined to survive it this morning at 5.30 but didn't realise just how effective their other weapon in their armoury would be and came out waving a white flag! :D :D

    Morning MF hope you are well this blustry day.
    I used to find it impossible trying to cut Tina's claws at the end of her days as they were black and you couldn't tell where the vain was.I had no problem when she did a lot of hard path walking as that kept them short,but once she stopped walking they grew long,and did so because she was old as well.
    I took her to the vets and held her while they did it and there was blood everywhere.It upset Tina as they caused her pain and it upset me as well to see what they were doing to her....

    Morning rosa, from what you lot are saying, I don't suppose it's going to stay fine here for long?

    BTW here is the chief trouble maker the third dog (thinks she is) never been over the garden fence, ever! Much more fun playing with the boy's! :D :D

    I clip my dogs nails i bought my clippers at crufts..But local pet shops sell them also..I used to pay a woman �£15 to come and do them and he hated it..Last time she came she hit him accross the head and called him scum..so i booted her out..and the woman i bought him off told me to do it so i do ..i am very carefull and just take a little and often..havnt had a blood disaster..I also trim my dog myself..he loves it as he likes to be groomed..Well i wont be going to the hospital as o/h isnt back and no way am i walking in this weather..it would take me 40 minutes at least..

    Good morning, a bit damp today and dark, I refuse to put the light on because it is day time but I am struggling to see the keys to write this so I apologise for any spelling mistakes now.

    dag great pic of btw can see a sketch coming on ha ha, yes the weather isnt too nice although the sky is blue and its sunny looks very decieving out there.

    wildflower, I can get them done at my local grooming parlour i just walk in and she charges me �£7 not bad and rosa was excellent they even commented how good she was, but iff i can learn to do it myself it would be more convenient so will see the nurse in the vets and ask them to show me as i cannot very well ask the grooming parlour can i and them losing out.
    That is some walk to the hospital and especially in this wind nasty weather. :D :D
