I'd gotten over my acute disc by the time I got her in for the dental and I was able to keep her nails very short after that. It gave me the heebie-jeebies to have it done but they had gotten long enough to click whenever she walked and I knew it would take a while and a lot of stressing on both our parts to try to get them shortened again little by little as the quick was likely long so I had the vet quick her with some misgivings. I kept her very quiet for the next two days after the quicking in case her nails might bleed or something so we had none of that. |
Ok, that makes sense, I was wondering why they would cut the quicks of the nails..lol..
