Keep those pets safe in this New England weather

Obviously we are getting hit by another batch of lovely New England weather. That being said, it is important to make sure your pets are safe when it comes time for puppy to head out to do his necessary business. What seems like a fun run up the snow bank can quickly turn into you franticly digging to try to find him after he sunk through. Also keep in mind that the ice under the snow from the last storm can be very sharp on paws, so it is best to keep one area clear so puppy has a safe place to be when he or she is outside in this winter wounderland! Let's make the best of a snowy situation for our for legged family members.

NEPGP Weekend

Lynn and Tracy have returned from another great weekend of seminars, competitions and a trade show with the New England Pet Grooming Professionals (NEPGP). They spent the weekend in Warwick , RI learning the newest tricks of the trade and seeing the latest clips and everything the pet industry has to offer. Lynn is also a member of the Cat Grooming Association of America now. She will be working toward becoming certified in cat grooming. As you all know Lynn has already become a Nationally Certified Master Groomer through the National Dog Groomers Association of America (many years ago). Becoming a certified groomer is NOT a requirement. Anyone can pick up a pair of scissors and say they are a professional groomer. Professional simply means you get paid for what you do. So it should be a great comfort to know that your groomer, even after over 35 years is still pressing forward in the industry and bettering herself and her business by becoming certified in yet another aspect of the industry. As always a special thank you to Danielle and Paulette for overseeing the resort while Lynn and Tracy were out of town!

Animal Photography was a HUGE hit!

Stop by and see the pictures Lynn had taken of Grissom, Gibbs and Reba that we have placed in the waiting room.
