 I Had such a blast on Harrison Forbes show (PET TALK) with co-host Sandy Robins. Live radio is the BOMB! Who would of ever thought? A year ago life was so different for me. OH how it has changed! If what they say is true that “my life is a book”, so far this is my favorite chapter. During the broadcast we covered a whole gamut of topics such as my plans for the future, and my over all feelings about the show. Harrison really wanted to know the low down happenings in the Groomer Has It “Dog House” but mainly we discussed pet care and grooming tips for dogs on the go. Sandy Robins was a doll with a vibrant personality and a wonderful co-host. I look forward to working with her in the near future. All in all it was a fantastic experince and there is deffinatly more to come. So please stay tuned the best is yet to come.

PEACE&BLESSINGS; Artist.

Here is the link of the interview (PET TALK 1260AM)

Guess who everybody?  I’ll give you a hint,  ”Lange Foundation“. That’s right, its TEDDY!  Not only does Teddy have a new home he also has a new life style.  After doing some investigating, I got in contact with Teddy’s family and tadda!  Thankfully he wasn’t as dirty and matted as before (Thank God). He was just a little smelly (Most of us are at times).  All Teddy needed was a bath and a light trim around his face.  It was amazing, you wouldn’t have known that Teddy had come from such a horrible place (PUPPY MILL).   I call them “SLAVERY FOR DOGS”.  Despite all the hard ship, Teddy has found his way to a better life.  While being bathed we caught up on old times.  We talked about politics, the economy, & Teddy’s favorite doggy treats. Not to mention the extra weight he had put on.  I guess you can say he’s getting a lot of food and love.    When we were done, Teddy and I said our goodbyes, he made an appointment to get groomed in a month and went home to his beautiful family. Wow, what a life,  You Go Teddy! Some stories do have happy endings. 

It’s official, i’ve got the cash and the truck, now it’s time to get down to business.  I have to develop my plan to organize my business so that I can maximize my potential and take the industry by storm.  First order of business - get customers.  What would be more fitting than to have my first client be my very own furry ’Bumpy Johnson’ A 3yr old male Shih-Tzu who I love very much. So bumpy it is. I go pick up my truck from the show and drive to my home, pull right in front of my home and call for bumpy.  He eagerly responds, runs out the house and jumps in the passenger seat. I told him that he had the right idea, but he was in the wrong spot (At least for now).  I put bumpy on the grooming table and begin to brush out his coat with a pen brush.  When the brushing was complete, I put bumpy “Mr. Johnson” in the tub and proceeded to give him a bath.  I can’t help but think, ”OOH how good it feels to be grooming my dog in my very own grooming truck”. In fact I said it out loud, after all it’s my truck and I can say what I want and as loud as I want FREEDOM!!!!!!!!!!!! After washing the bumpster, I give him a good drying. Then I follow up with a  trough brushing, being careful not to break the hair on his legs, ears, and tail.  After the brushing the final touch is a light trim with thinning sheers, trimming on the face, ears, legs, and tail. I look at the final product. Feeling satisfied I give Bumpy a kiss (Yes I kiss my dog!) and tell him thank you. Yes!!! I’m official. 100% self employed.
