My Grooming Experiences I will be writing about my job as a groomer. You might not think my job would be too interesting but believe me it is quite crazy some days. I encounter some super cute dogs and also do some crazy haircuts sometimes.

Ok this is a miracle story I am about tell you. Well at my job we do paws dogs (Shelter Dog). Basically we take a dog that is in bad condition and give it a bath and a haircut and make it look cute that way it would have a better chance of getting adopted. Well about a week ago we got a call from paws asking if we could fit in a dog that they had found on the streets. Well we managed to have time that day and decided to take the dog in and try to make improvements. We got the dog and it is hard to describe it but pretty much you could even tell where its head was or even its nose or tail it was a big ball of mats. Well the dog was matted from head to tail with severe mats all over its body. We couldn't even shave him with the clippers we had to take our scissors and cut a couple of strands at a time. We started on his back and went to his head. When we got to his head it was even worse than we imagine it could be. The poor dogs complete face was covered in mats and couldn't even see out of one eye. His ears were sticking straight out because they were all matted. Pretty much to give you a picture of how bad it was, if we were to shave the dog from head to toe it would have been a fully body pelt of a dog (pretty much a rug) We ended up finishing him it took a total of like 4 hours to complete the haircut and bath. After all that work we fell in love with him and brought him back to the shelter where the owner of my business actually decided to adopt him. This was the worst case we have ever seen in neglect of a dog. He was so loving and so cute that we couldn't help but fall in love. So now Knuckles Jones (the dog) has a new home with two other dogs and a 4 year old kid to play with. He has a great life now and it i hard to believe that me and the owner of the business actually saved this dogs life. Yay
