As of Sunday, July 20th, I have been searching for a groomer for Pablo.  The person that was grooming him for the past 3 1/2 years called me and told me she closed her shop.  It was so devastating... it was as if somone just died to me.  What I have realized why I liked taking Pablo to this place so much was because it was so clean... you walk in and it's like a hair salon - everything is right there.  No closed doors... no walls hiding what may be going on... Plus, the schedule was very flexible.  I could drop Pablo off at 7 a.m. and then my mom could go to pick him up once he got done within a few hours.  I went somewhere today to check out and I was not impressed.  Apparently my dad checked out a place and they told him to just bring him in and put him in a kennel and then he can pick him up after work.  This is so difficult it's terrible... my sister found about 3 places for me to call around the M'boro, C'dale area so I'll check them out this week I'm sure... I know for a fact I will not call somewhere and make an appointment before going to check the place out first.
