I was six years old when I told my parents that I wanted to be a kitty and a puppy fixer when I grew up. All through my school years, I focused on becoming a veterinarian. I graduated from high school and I was thrilled to take a summer job as a "lab technician trainee" at the University of
Pennsylvania Veterinary School, this is where I would be attending very soon! But sadly, as the weeks passed by, I started to realize that I did not have the emotional
strength to handle the stress of seeing pets suffer from injuries, illness and unfortunately sometimes death. After several months of mental anguish, I had to realize that I could not fulfill my life long dream of becoming a veterinarian.
Reluctantly I took a job in the business office as a file clerk, and enrolled in Pierce Business School at night.
Soon after I graduated, I got a job as a office assistant
and figure clerk. Soon i worked my way up to head bookkeeper. Ten years later, newly married, my husband and I bought a beautiful old
English sheepdog puppy. He was the love of our life. I am sad to say by his first birthday he was so matted that we took him to a dog groomer and they shaved him down! We hated it! I could not find anyone to teach me how to keep him brushed out. So we decided that I would quit my job and go to dog grooming school and learn how to take care of him correctly. That is why today I offer everyone my "Free Brushing Workshop" so they too can enjoy a beautifully brush out and happy pet!
I also truly enjoy all the trimming, washing and primping that I do for the dogs,
whether it is a 120lb Rottweiler or a 6lb Yorkshire terrier. I especially love our motto, "We make both ends huggable!"
