[Pawsies]

I show my year old cardigan Isis in conformation classes- mainly corgi ones but we do all breed ones too.

We're totally new, and everyone has really helped us, but they all say she needs more weight, I do agree to a certain extent but my nightmare would be that she becomes overweight. I really don't want to cause her health problems.

Anyway she's been on a diet of dry food, goats milk and tripe and is getting bigger, my parents still want to feed her more but I don't. I think she's big enough now, her ribs are able to be felt and she looks a decent size.

The other problem is that our scales are in stones and we need to measure her in kg. Is 10kg right for a smaller female cardigan?
Any tips on how to make her stand still on the scales? Lol.

Last thing which isn't relevant to food but anyway. We keep getting told her nails are too long, they are just past the quick. She is a real wriggler and won't sit still for long. How can I make the experience more enjoyable?
Someone also told me that when they had litters of pups, they would make the pups bleed when they cut the nails on purpose so that the pup could feel what it was like and would be less wriggly or something. I thought it was quite cruel.
