We. So. Suck.
When we did rescue, dogs would come in sooo neglected. One of the
markers was the status of their toenails, sometimes they'd have grown so
long that they'd curl into the dogs' footpads. We'd shake our heads and
whip out the nail trimmers.
Today, Andrea told me to get the nail trimmers and cut Rainie's back
feet right now.
Because we were somehow that family. Rainie's back nail had curled over
into her pad. Sigh.
I trimmed them all so now she's good to go, but yes, we need to pay more
attention.
Sorry, Roo Roo. Please accept a ton of treats in the near future as our
penance.

Oh, doesn't that make you feel awful? I've had that with three animals now--Sylvester the cat with his claws, Maddy with her mad circular dewclaws, and even Hairy Potter (may she R.I.P.) with her guinea-pig claws.
But it always, always feels awful. :(
