He said they recommended snipping them off, leaving a enough to grab onto later. Apparently the snipped quill then relaxes the hooked end inside the dog's muzzle and allows for a less traumatic removal of the remaining part. He has three dogs and several acres, as well. He seemed to speak from experience. Hope that helps! <br />-Sally and TimAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
