@shofargod True, true. It is a horrible industry. I should have said it’s amazing work! A very fulfilling career, but yes, a bad industry 😂.

@shofargod I was worried I over did it 😂. It’s an amazing industry, but very complicated. If it counts for anything, I went through 4 salons in my first year. As stressful as that was, I have no regrets because I learned far more than I would have immediately setting down roots. If you find...

I work as an assistant to a solo groomer and we had a wild day yesterday. Our schedule was 1 great pyr, 3 goldens, 2 pitties, 2 St. Bernard, a beagle and a bernie. I love them all, great dogs but I was dead at the end of the day 🤣. I was talking to a friend about the day and describing all of...
