nice, shmiche
So, in my line of work, I mainly work with women.  Most of our employees are women as are most of our customers.  We found out early on, most (single and/or straight) guys just don’t think it’s that important that their dog NOT smell like dirty feet.  That is until there is a woman in their lives.  The tide is slowly changing, but for the last six years we’ve been trying to...

Glamorama-A day in the life of a boot-strappin'...
So, you may know that we are in the process of opening our 5th store. January 19 is the sixth anniversary of our first shop’s opening day, so we’ve been very busy these last few years, to say the least. In any case, we stopped by the new shop on Christmas Eve (scheduled to open in the next few days) to find these SUPER cheap hoses and sprayers in all the tubs. We had provided...

The Surf Shelf →
So, I ordered one of these yesterday.  Should be here in about a week and I’m SO excited.  It’s a little shelf that will attach to my treadmill so I can actually get in shape WHILE I tweet, blog, email, etc.  I’ll let y’all know how it goes :)

snuggie for dogs? maybe.... →
While the Snuggie has been one of the biggest jokes of the year, it looks like the Snuggie for Dogs is actually a pretty good design…if your pup needs some extra warmth.  Easy to put on, not too tight, etc.  I wonder if they’d give me a deal on 5?

and we're off....
I thought I’d come up with some clever new title to this post, but thought it kind of describes what this post is…my first baby steps into the world of blogging and a very short intro of what I think I’ll do here.  So, quickly, I’m a chick “of a certain age” (girl, lady, woman…whatever) that lives in Austin, Texas that owns some grooming and self-serve...
