 Tails, Claws, and VET
if i remember correctly tails are to be docked on days 3-5 and dew claws on day 3? RIGHT? well i did the tails Monday and the claws yesterday. i had planned on doing them all on 1 day but didn't like hearing all the crying and mom was not happy. but everything went fairly well if i do say so myself. i didn't do the front dewclaws on Angel... the littlest one that wasn't gaining weight. i just didn't feel comfortable doing such small ones and i didn't do his tail either. i wanted him to get bigger before i mess with him... i might not do it at all. so my question is exactly how old before you (ME not the vet) can't do the claws? i just want him to get a little meat on him. but if there is a time limit then i need to know that. and when to take them to the vet. i would have taken then earlier but didn't want to take then out in the yucky weather we have been having. but its finally stopped raining today. so i was wondering if i should take them in now?
thanks! |
