Makeover-Angel Baby

Angel... What can we say about Angel. She is one of the staff favorites here at Midtown. She is a tiny little Maltese but she has the attitude of a Great Dane. She loves attention, and just wants to sit in you arms all day long if she could. She might even rough house with you if she is in the mood.

Well, Angel usually comes in every Saturday to get a bath and brush out, but she has missed the past couple of weekends. She came in last weekend looking like a hot mess. She had a matt the entire length of her body that would not come out. It was time for a hair cut. Here is the before:

See? Not so pretty.

Now she is looking adorable:

After the cut she did not know what to do with herself. She has never had short hair before. She kept doing little twirls and looking at her body like it wasn't hers. Then should do a little huff. I think it was a huff of satisfaction. I am sure she felt a lot better. She did look adorable in long hair so I am sure it will grow back fast. Until then she will have stylish little pixie cut!

Reconstruction

When customers come in the door, what they see is a beautiful new front room. Behind that first new room however, the rest isn't so pretty. Don't get me wrong... It's interesting. There was carpet on the ceiling, Laura Ashley flowered wallpaper that was stained on the walls, and more bright orange, swirly, shag carpet on the floor. Who couldn't admire that? So reconstruction is badly needed. It's an old house, what do you expect?

So we would like to keep you informed about what happens. You will be able to follow the transformation from beast to beauty!

The last thing that happened was tearing down that awesome Laura Ashley flowered and stained wall paper off the ceiling in the grooming room. Well actually, there were tiles, and when those came down we found the wallpaper. Then under that there was a beautiful wood ceiling. It's absolutely gorgeous! They don't build them like this anymore, that is for sure.

It was not a fun job. Dirt, years of dog hair, dust and flakes of wallpaper were every where. Protection had to be worn. You can see from the beautiful pictures that Laura Leigh was ready for battle. Yes that is a dog bandanna on her head!

Now we have a beginning to a great grooming room. We will let you know the next steps and how it goes. Fun, Fun, Fun!
