Peteyfoozer’s Journey (because journaling’s not enough)

[Mini Horses]

I've ended up using a dremel tool and for whatever reason that's usually tolerated more than the clippers.

Probably the pressure of clippers...and how it transfers to the toe, not just the nail. While the Dremel is far less feel factor. A little noise and easy feeling, like a rub or slight trimble feel.

Other friends I know (face to face friends as well as online) with SDs have either groomers or vets that do this free. Yeah - I was wondering about a stranger trying to do that - but he's young and you could try and just say stop if you don't like anything. Worth a phone call to see if it's offered and go from there.
For my dogs that need it (thank God some don't ever seem to need it done) I've ended up using a dremel tool and for whatever reason that's usually tolerated more than the clippers.

I have a dremel and he won’t let me close. I spent weeks with a clicker and treats. He will touch it with his snoot but if it gets close to his feet, he’s outta here

Tried to help damn rabid because her kits were smothering her in the heat. I was going to put her in her own cage in the shade of the vine covered arch when she decided to eviscerate me. These get deeper as they tear down the length of my breast and onto my bleeding stomach. Needless to say, the first day I feel strong enough, will be her last.

Agree 200%. Keep it doctored.

I had been debating what to do about her as I need to cull some and she always had big litters. She made this decision easy

I didn’t even notice she got my arm too…witch. She literally tore holes in my shirt! And I was holding her nicely when she started!

I can’t hardly stand to wear a shirt and bra is out of the question!!

Oh OWWWWWWW. Damn rabbit. Glad you're going to cull her. Great time for some fresh dog food or perhaps rabbid stew.

Got a meat grinder? Rabbit chili!

A Little About Meat Rabbits

So, a little about rabbits, better known to me as rabids. (More about that later) Rabids have decent sized litters (mine have 5-11) and th...

Made this tonight. SO good! Really made it easier and Randy went nuts over it. Only thing I did different was using bacon grease instead of seed oil and wow is it good!
Would work with chicken too
