Let's talk about black toenails.

If you know you know.. It can be scary, as it feels like a gamble every time you clip.

This sweet black paw belongs to Dakota. Her dew claws had grown so long that they were pressing into her paw pad in a complete circle.

Even with heavy sedation, veterinarians and groomers had been unable to successfully trim them. She was so terrified of anyone touching her paws, that it had become an impossible task that had gotten out of control.

With consistent training sessions, we worked on gaining her trust.

Her trust in us touching her paws > trust in us touching her dew claws > trust in us touching her paws and dew claws with a clipper. Until eventually we successfully trimmed them down to a safe place.

This photo, of her nicely clipped dewclaw, is a huge deal. Again, if you know you know.

I'm not going to sugarcoat it, it took time, and a lot of patience, and a lot of treats. And she still doesn't love it, but she isn't biting anyone, and she's enjoying the attention instead of freaking out and trying to get away.

Does your dog have black toenails? Do you have a dog that doesn't like having their nails trimmed? Have you felt nervous trying to trim their nails before, based on their reactions, or just based on the fear of clipping their quick?

Let's normalize this challenge, as it is so common.

We see you!

Who doesn't love a nice success story?

These two dogs live in the same complex. The big one is Percy, the little one is Luna.

Over time Luna decided she absolutely hated Percy. Which is not uncommon, for a dog to have very strong feelings about certain dogs in their neighborhood. Unfortunately, however, these two live a few doors apart, and see each other often.

Every time that Percy walked past Luna's home, even with no access to the windows, Luna would sense his presence and go crazy. If she saw him, even from a distance outside, she would go nuts. It had gotten to a point where it was quite stressful and dramatic. She had also begun to associate any of Percy's people as a threat as well.

Percy is a really friendly dog. His humans, equally lovely.

Luna is an adorable, sweet, intelligent and friendly dog. Her humans, equally awesome.

No one was doing anything wrong, but the situation was really awful for everyone.

We started off working on skill building for Luna. How to walk on a leash without pulling, impulse control, an emergency stop, recall, and how to respond to leash tension.

We then started working the dogs in each other's presence but from a distance.

But the big win was taking them away from their territory, and doing a big parallel walk together, keeping their attention off of each other, and on their humans. Working on timing of communication, when to redirect attention, and when to allow curiosity and proximity.

We then took those same principles and did the same exercises back in front of their homes.
They were able to walk side by side, happily, and peacefully. They were even able to just hang out in each other's presence without any management, trusting each other to make good choices.

There likely will still be some big emotions the next time Luna sees Percy, as old habits die hard, but we are confident now that they are able to coexist, and their humans know exactly how to help them work through it quickly if needed.

Does your dog have any enemies in the neighborhood? It's really common for them to decide that one specific dog is a huge threat.
