Last night, we were successfully able to cut the nails on all four of Cookie's paws, which was dramatically different than the last time we attempted it. She was practically asleep- I'm sure that helped a bit that she was that relaxed, but I feel that the main difference was that she felt more comfortable with us (and trusts us more), now that she's been with us for a few weeks.
This morning, we cleaned up the basin in the garage and gave her a nice warm bath. I installed an old stereo in the garage yesterday, so we put on some soothing music to help calm her. This time, she rather seemed to enjoy all the lathering and attention.
I'm just glad that it's getting easier, because the last round was so stressful for both parties.

A collection of blurbs stemming from mostly the motorized projects that I do. Some posts mixed in have to do with my experiences in X-ray school. (Some entries are from older blogs that I killed off.) Some of my toys are a Mazdaspeed Miata that I work on and take to the track, a little Harley that I can't stop modding and an old Yamaha RD400 that I've been collecting parts for over the past 15 years. When I'm not wrenching, sometimes I mountain bike, sometimes I snowboard, sometimes I make beer.
