    I think I’m gonna quit or get fired

    @kate22 I worked sick earlier this year and I ended up using the wrong blade on two dogs in one day and kind of botched the cuts. A year or so ago I was distracted and shaved right through the skirt on a schnauzer. We're human, it happens! Take care of yourself and feel better.

    Stop coddling your dog! You're the problem, not them!!

    @gellmannamnesia I'm so grateful I work at a boarding facility where the grooming salon is inaccessible to the clients. Certain clients absolutely exacerbate their dogs' behavior. I've had dogs who were perfectly calm and fine with me but their parents were basket cases who made their pets...

    I cannot believe the condition she was in

    @gary987 No such thing as an ethical doodle breeder. 100% of them are purely money grubbing scumbags. So sorry she got put through that - mom's got to find a way to break that contract. It would be so cruel to put her through that again.

And I've never met a cav who...

    @gary987 If they were removed from the mother at 3 weeks, they're being mistreated. Full stop.

    Where do y’all find your tool sharpeners?

    @kybekynekane I went through three nightmare sharpeners before I found My Guy. I'm left handed and one of them absolutely destroyed a pair of my kenchiis by sharpening the blade right handed, the damage was irreparable, I've had a hard time trusting since. But I got my shears back from my new...
