Cheers chuck

and thanks to everyone else too, who's wished me good luck. I've booked more dogs in today thanks to my ad in the local paper

Nice one Shirl, good luck with this.

Good stuff - and lots of luck

What's your business called? Soapy mutts? Canine cleaning?

 

[Mrs Magpie]

This sounds great. Best of luck Shirl.

Go Shirl! Entrepreneurial freedom! And long may you soap relaxed dogs' balls

(I did that for a summer holiday job and it was great, even with snappy dogs. I used to play dub to them to calm them down)

More power to your elbow (and buy a big bottle of cocoa butter - it really fucks up your hands.)

I'm marketing myself using my own name for starters although I have an idea for a name if I start to rent premises. My flyers are pretty funky though. I've got my details overprinted on photos from American dog shows around the start of the 20th century. I've also got one with a picture of Picasso wearing baggy underpants and holding his Afghan hound.

Make sure you get on yell.com and any local business listings sites.

G'luck.

Can we have a pic of a dog before and after?

 

[Shirl]

Can we have a pic of a dog before and after?

Yes, I'll do that as soon as I've got a good one. I'll wait until I've got a really overgrown dog to sort out

ymu, I'm getting on the local sites but I'll go for yell too, cheers.

At 60 I should be taking it easy but what the hell I got fed up with my low paid job so I quit (by text) and after working a weeks notice I've just started my own dog grooming business. I did my first two dogs today

prosperity and peace to you and thanks for sharing, nice to hear positive stuff.
