What is the best way for me to remove a splinter from my German Shepherds paw?
She got it while walking on the porch and now she won’t let me touch her. Thank you! Michele F. If your dog won’t let you touch her then you will have to take her to the veterinarian. If you try to remove it yourself she may bite you. Even if you can muzzle her, it will be a traumatic experience for both of you, and if she is struggling with you it is unlikely you will be able to remove it anyway. I saw a blind poodle at my local shelter and I want her! She’s only a year old and the sweetest girl. Do you have any tips on how to care for her? My mom doesn’t want the extra work, so I need to convince her. Thanks! Thea N. I think it is wonderful that you are willing to adopt a blind dog. There are resources available to help you, but most blind animals adapt fairly quickly to their surroundings and will just need reassurance becoming familiar with the environment, and with feeding at first. The shelter should be able to provide you with information about the medical needs, if any, and any
