I have a very small penknife that has a very small pair of scissors on it. I use those scissors for trimming mats on Sake. She did not like it at first, but over time, I know she has discovered that it can feel good to get some of those mats cut off of her, and sometimes does not object to my using the scissors.
Yesterday, I noticed a mat in the pit of her front leg. It was very hard. Today, I was looking for the little penknife, but I could not find it. I looked very hard for it. It was not there. So, as I was running errands today, I bought another one.
This afternoon, Sake was on the counter, and I felt for the mat. It was still there. She let me get the penknife and cut the mat off, without trying to escape. It must have been bothering her. I am glad I replaced the penknife. And, if the other one shows up, I do not mind having an extra.
