And I love them! Kitties too! I've had many years of experience with animals. I groomed dogs and cats for ten years in salons and at my home. While I was grooming dogs at my home I had my ladies day when I had Sophie, Trudy, Zoe and Buffy all there on one day. It was a spa day for dogs! Get your hair and nails done, then lay around in the sun for the afternoon. How much fun is that! Now I'd rather just hang out with them, maybe play, have a snack, watch some animal channel. I can administer insulin for diabetic dogs. I still groom my dog at home, bathe, nails and glands. Our animals are part of our families, sometimes the best part, lol!
