⚠️ Viewer Discretion Advised: Photos contain 🩸, quick/nail pulp, broken nail⚠️

Ok so, I love following The Hoof GP, and after watching at least a million and a half of their videos, I felt like I was part of their team today, and have dubbed myself . 😅 I mean most people would refer to this boy as livestock anyway. , he could also pass for a holstein.

So, much like Graeme Parker, Craigie Boy, new guy Derek, and Cameraman Graeme, tend to cow hooves and have to carful remove thin layers of hoof horn until all the loose horn is removed, I had to gently trim back and re-analyze the best way to remove all the loose and broken nail casing from this boys back foot. Now that it is removed, he will no longer have flexing, pinching, and poking of his quick that cause pain irritation and bleeding.

His Mama noticed it right away and made sure to reach out to foster mama Liz for advice on how to best take care of her boy. Of course I was happy to help anyway that I could. I am not a vet, I cannot diagnose or prescribe, but I definitely can trim nails, provide some pain relief in doing so, and thorough clean the area. Due to the nature of the break debris was able to get under the loose nail and wasn't able to be well cleaned until all the loose nail casing was removed. So, this boy will likely still need a trip to the vet for some antibiotics to stave off any potential infection.

Merrick was so incredibly good through all of it too. Even knowing that toe had to be causing him pain, he laid so still while I took the time to carefully remove what I could while trying to not inflict any additional pain. (cuticle clippers to the rescue!) Afterwards there were lots of treats to be had and I received lots of hugs. I like to think he was greatful and thanking me. 🥰 Now he can really start to heal. After a week or so of some reduced play, and cleaning the body will work to protect the quick while the nail itself takes several weeks/months to regrow and fully encapsule the quick again.

🤔 Now I'm over here thinking I need to step up my game and get a wearable GoPro to record these adventures like The Hoof GP does. Really that's just my ADHD at its finest because realistically, I will likely get too caught up in tending to the feet that I'd forget to even put the camera on and record. 😅 Not to mention, who really wants to watch that kind of stuff? 🫣

Ok, I saw this listing and now I'm wondering..... If I make these, does that mean I can own even more dogs? like say I make 2 of them, and stack them into a triple bunk. That would fit 6 dogs. 🤔 I think it does mean more dogs for me! Just Giants Rescue and Sighthounds Worldwide Rescue may run out of adoptees 😅 NO ONE TELL DAVE!!!! 🤣🤣🤣

If I give your pup nick names or extra names, I'm sorry it's just what happens to roll off the tongue when I'm talking to them all day 🤣

On that note, Miss Paisy Jane (Paisley) came to visit today. I'm so sad I didn't hit record like I thought I did and missed Reggie's initial excitement to see her. He practically shoved her right of the bench trying to pounce and sniff her. So, he's slightly more subdued by the time I ACTUALLY hit record. 😅

Don't mind miss Lucy whining in the back, she was stuck behind the gate with her breakfast and was bummed she was missing the excitement. She also can be overwhelmingly excited with Hellos. Even more so then Finen and Tilly (granted they just are huge). So, it's better to save her to be one of the last to greet when there's more dogs to intercede and distract. Jack was pretty happy to see her again though too. Maybe Pais will end up with a back up boyfriend. 🤷 She definitely LOVES her Reggie though.

Roosty has been spicy (feisty) this week. Not to shabby for an old lady. I keep Finen from really trying to play with her anymore since he's such a beast and she's a fragile antique, but Comet......he works perfect. 🤣

How could you possibly say no to this face?! She's just such a happy little pupper, from the squeels when she gets dropped off to the trickery to get her in the car to go home. ♥️

Thena Beana says ball is everything, ball is life, you have ball, you can cut nails. 🤣 (it's just got to go nail, ball, nail, ball, nail, ball untill they are done.)

Happy St. Patrick's Day. Who else braved the weather and made it to the ? Finen, Tilly, Arthur, and I joined out friends and family from Food Bank of Central New York handing out hats, gloves, and socks to help beat the last of the cold this winter is trying to throw at us. Even made sure my babies were nice and toasty in the coats I made them yesterday, new collars for the occasion, and of course their scarves that helped them steal the show 🥰

Did you know that The Food Bank has a program called Food $en$se? Each package is loaded with groceries you will actually use, for way less than you'd pay at the grocery store, and they have awesome add ons each month like a nearly 10 lb ham just in time for the holiday dinners. It's not a subscription, you can check out what's in the package each month to decide if it works for you that month. Even better is that each purchase helps The Food Bank supply more food and meals to people facing food insecurity.

Before I pay for shipping and a restocking fee.....would anybody be interested in this collar for their baby? I special ordered it for Tilly since we are walking in the parade this weekend, but it's only 1 inch wide, and we need 2. It will fit a neck size 15-20 inches. So really anyone little like Jack and Lexi, up to Finen/Roo sized. It cost $32.40 on Etsy. It's beautiful, sturdy/well made, just not wide enough for Miss Bean.

This pulls on my heart so much. This is one of those feelings of love and happiness that you just can't describe. A feeling that there's nothing else like, and it comes in the moment the shut down rescue dog you're fostering starts to relax, open up, come out of their shell, and discover that life can be full of fun and love.

It comes the time when; they first come to you for affection, when you can approach and they no longer sink to the floor out of fear and submission, when they show some goofy part of their underlying personality, get the Zoomies, and actually play! Your heart was so broken for the life they lived before you and is healed when you see the light come back into their eyes and joy hits their faces.

It also comes when you get to see them in their new life, when you get updates and still see them so happy, to see them spoiled and loved as much as you love them, and to see them adjust, attach to, and love their new family. I'm so happy I made the decision to be an animal foster mom. I'm lucky I have gotten to experience this. The hard parts are there, but the good parts make it all worth it!

Now if you starve to death, you'll just have yourself to blame. So, eat it!
