Hello WOOFunderful people..... This week I want to py tribute to APRIL SPRINGER. Last week we had a great discussion that made me think. April mentioned training in delivery personnel, and are they trained properly. Now I hope we presented an informative episode. Sadly our first version was over the limit to publish. Included in this episode is two sound bytes. We also discuss last week and how we managed to work even under duress. We put to bed a feud between a jealous individual. And more. Please give support to our good friend at https://www.facebook.com/legospage?ref=ts&fref=ts she's very important in the pet community. Hope you enjoy!!

Hello pet lovers!! This weeks episode will be jam packed with information from last weeks PCAWL meeting regarding "STRUTT YOUR MUTT". Announcement that at this years Strutt your mutt will be Dog Carting for the first time. And we will have a new segment called "THE BASEBALL PLAYER NEXT DOOR" from the Springfield Cardinals (AA Affiliate of the St. Louis Cardinals) newly appointed coach Patrick "PACKY" Elkins will be joining us after a great game on June 14th. All that and MORE!! on this episode of The Groomer Next Door.

Hello again my pet loving friends. This weeks episode has another comical storyline. We had a funny little "10 reasons it's more expensive to get your hair cut then your pets". It's really funny. Then we talk about add-ons that SHOULDN'T happen. Every groomer has their own business moto, but ripping off the customer shouldn't be one of them. And we conclude with a GREAT dog sport called "DOG CARTING". I have spent the last week talking on their Facebook page and I have enjoyed learning about this sport. For all of you dog lovers looking to compete with your pup. I encourage everyone to look into it. Enjoy enjoy everyone.

Episode 30 will feature cats. We know a lot of you great people love your cats as much as your dog, or you might not even have a dog. Well let me just say "we love our cats as well". We feature more dog related stories based on our work, so it just becomes a storyline for us. So this week we will talk about declawing your cat. Now if you believe in declawing that's fine. This is just for those looking for more information and you can learn from what we have to share. Even down to what litter is acceptable for a declawed cat. We also shared a story out of Florida last week that a dog fighting ring was raided and luckily the individuals were arrested.**IF YOU EVER COME ACROSS INFORMATION OF ANY ILLEGAL ACTS REGARDING ANIMALS PLEASE CONTACT YOUR LOCAL POLICE. DO NOT TRY AND BREAK IT UP YOURSELF.

Hello my horse loving listeners. This episode we are joined by Elizabeth Black . She's our expert on horses. I won't promise you will learn anything from this episode. I won't promise you will even follow along with us. This episode is just three individuals who have known each other for years and when they get together it's just what your about to hear..... I will say it's funny. But don't hold your breathe that you will learn a darn thing from us. But what can I say we pay our experts nothing, so I guess we get what we pay for.

Episode 28 came from a link sent to us from a listener. It's funny how we say certain things without thinking about it. And those things might not be correct. This applies to everything. But this episode is dedicated to those unique comments. And during this episode Sarah and I recorded our episode outside of our house for the first time. If you listen closely you will hear the birds chirping. We hope you enjoy this episode as much as we enjoyed recording it. As always we love hearing from you all. You can Facebook message us or email us at [email protected]

This is a special episode of THE GROOMER NEXT DOOR. Sarah and I wanted to spend a few minutes to thank all those who served in the military. But let's remember those who we lost. Today isn't only for a BBQ or trip to the lake. It's not just a day off to sleep in and do nothing. Today is a day that we should remember the men and women we lost. We want to thank the families. You raised remarkable individuals who gave the ultimate sacrifice for our safety. Today is a day to remember you. And I thank all current and retired military personal for their service.

Episode 27 is all about nutrition for your pet(s). A lot goes into a healthy pet, but it all starts with food. We leo discuss the myth that raw diet is the best way to go. Now personally we are not supportive of the raw diet. We have a sound byte of a vet that discusses raw diet. As always we do hope you all enjoy

We return to THE GROOMER NEXT DOOR in a knew sound quality (or we hope). We have upgraded our mic and we continue to build our content. Today we talk about Nail Trimming. So we have the information, and expert content to validate the information. If your curious, or uninformed about nail trimming then this is the perfect episode for you to listen to. On a side note we continue to add ideas for show's, and we love hearing from all of you.
