I wanted to start this blog to give back to the many blogs that my husband and I read during our journey to adopt a Vizsla. Those blogs not only helped confirm our decision to adopt a Vizsla, but also have helped us understand the many stages of puppyhood - what's normal and what's not. Plus - who doesn't want to see pictures of a Vizsla?!

Ildi is a Hungarian Vizsla who was born Nov.4, 2009 and joined our Calgary household in Jan. 2010 at 11 weeks old.

Aug 10: clipping Ildi's nails.

Ildi is usually pretty good when you have to do something to her - clean a wound, etc... and she's not so bad when I clip her nails, though I often do it when she's half asleep. I've decided that I shouldn't have to wait for those circumstances, so I've been working with her to let me clip her nails when she's fully awake. This position has been quite handy! lucky for me she likes this position!
I try to clip her nails weekly.



Clipping Ildi's nails...


all done!
