I did not flea powder the fur and even the next day i had a tick come off, so id recomend using flea powder/spray even raid and bagging the animal for 30 min. I started skinning as normal cuts from the vent 1/2 way down the legs, then I cut the legs off above the knee and hung the carcass bay the waist. then I skinned him down to the shoulders. Next I started skinning the mouth from the outside and working my way to free all the lips and work up close to the eyes. Then back to skinning as normal. Everything went fin until i started working on the feet. I put the bone of the fron legs in a vise and worked the fur down. Slow as you come to the dew claw and pad and you will find a bone off to the side for the claw, I just snipped the bone with dikes and kept pulling easily and working the fur down and you get to the paws i kept slowly cutting close to the bone and when most of the finger are axposed o bent the fingers looking for the last joint and cut through the joing so the claws are with the fur. The back legs are the tough part from the heel bone on you have yo go real slow and cut as you go. On my last hind foot I tried to pull more and cut less and I ended up with a 3 legged fox
Im slower than a granny when it comes to skining but other than that last leg
