You have four Hayley. Must keep you busy. I like your bichon and your piki.

AWWW what cute dogs you have.

have to say i love love love minnie moo something about the face seems to get to me ...... adorable..

Hayley Little Boo has grown up so fast! & you're do a super dooper trim

little boo is a little monster but i love her so much as i do the others they really are a great bunch of dogs.

This is Ms Kelly and

and this is "Gracie" (Kelpie/Lab) and "Oscar" (Maltese/Chiquawa/pom)

Both Gracie and Oscar come with me every day.... Oscar is an old hand at it, being 3, Gracie (1 & 1/2) is learning the ropes from Oscar. My clients (doggy ones) love Oscar as he tends to chill them out- he looks relaxed- so why shouldnt they be relaxed....The human clients tend to like both dogs as well, so double points!!!

Oscar reminds me of a few I've done that were... not the best behaved dogs Good to hear he's a good boy though.

Its funny, i have NEVER liked small dogs, always gone for the larger breeds, but oscar, just has the best personality. he is not snappy/yappy or aggressive (i wouldnt havbe him with me if he was), but he just has a very quiet disposition about him that is contagious. All of my clients RAVE about him to their friends (free advertising) and kids line up to cuddle him. Whats also funny is he is really my wifes dog. I only started taking him with me when we got him (he was one of my first clients- a runaway that a client found and asked me to clean him up prior to re housing him). I didnt want him to run away from home -so i started taking him with me. And he has just stuck with me since. Although- he cant wait to start the day with me and LIVES for doing the rounds with me- but as soon as we get home - he does not want to know me. He is ALL OVER MY WIFE! If i go near him at nighty he runs the other way....as soon as morning comes...he cant wait to get into the ute with me and Gracie!

Do any other groomers take their dog with them to work?? How does it work for you?

Dude, Oscar sounds like a charecter, My dog will only go in the groom shop if another dog goes in there before she does, then, she knows it not "her turn"
Ms. Kelly looks to be pretty laid back!

Well I work from home so Lindy is with me all day. Its nothing for her to open one of the cages (always the one with sheepskin) and go to sleep. She is usually just around and lets me know when clients come, rather to loudly, but she does stop when they get in and pat her. She loves it if a client stays with me and just cuddles her, cause I suppose on busy days she does get a bit neglected cuddle wise.

OMG! Are you me? Is my dog your dog?? Ditto to EVERYTHING you just wrote!

EVERYTHING!
MIngo waits for someone to sit. My friends, who stay,feel so flattered that she can't wait to get on their lap, but, I don't tell them that she will do that to a perfect stranger..
Barks her butt off on arrival, but I say, "wanna go in the house?" then I get "the look" and she usually shuts up!
She paws at the cage if she wants in, I never have figured out why....

Hamish comes with me quite a lot in winter but not usually into the trailer as he's too bossy, just keeps guard in the car. Yours are very cute. Is yours a Kings trailer Tony?

Barb,

Tony has a Penguin trailer.

Is that Hamish new hair do??

No, that is one of Hamish's rellies, a new litter at his breeder's I got to mooch all over them this week - tooooo cute!!
What is the diff between a Penguin and a Kings trailer? I like the rail at back - handy for hanging towels but size, storage, etc?

Next time i need my hair permed i will have to come to you

Tony does have a penguin trailer.

The "rail" is actually at the front of the trailer. It is very handy to hang my chamois as you say. The main difference between the two makes is size....(no its not a man thing ). The penguin trailer is much bigger inside- wider and longer. However- the quality on the Kings Trailer is FAR superior to the Penguin.
