Can I just say, we are NOT a bleeding 24 hour Tesco's. When I say we shut at 6pm it is because we shut at 6pm. I do not intend to hang around all flipping night because you would rather not drive through rush hour traffic :rolleyes: I have my own dog to look after, and believe it or not I need to eat at some point otherwise when I do eventually take your pig ignorant dog, it will either break my arm or drag me into the next county.

I also don't really care if you prefer your Goldendoodle fluffy, if you don't brush it and let mats the size of Canada build up on it, I will clip it short. It also smells like cheesy feet, so god knows why you prefer it long and fluffy! :confused:

If you come in during our lunch break, we will serve you, but instead of saying 'Well it's my lunch break too you know' try 'Thank you'. We are not running personal errands, we are looking after your bloody dog. :mad:

Don't be offended when we don't find it amusing when your GSD has no manners, barks at us, bites us and drags us around :mad: Funnily enough having to spend all week clearing up after the messy swines and listen to it make what is quite possibly the most irritating noise ever, has somewhat dampened our sense of humour.

Somedays I love my job.... today has not been one of them :p :D

Apologies for the rant, but there is no one to vent at here!
 
Hehe :D Otto has to come to work with me somedays. At the moment I'm staying late so I have to sit in the office for an hour by myself after everyone else has gone home, so Otto comes and sits down there with me (not that he would be any use if a big scary person came in!!).
The little swine sits under the desk and does the smelliest farts, so the clients can't see him when they come in.. I get some disgusted looks! :o :D :D

Mwahahaha!! :D The Poplets do that under my desk whilst I'm trying to study. Nice to hear of someone else suffering! :p
 
If I had a freezer he would already be on it. But I'm not about to buy a chest freezer when I haven't bought a house yet! :D TBH he only seems to do it when he's under the desk at work! I think it's the excitement of cats being in the same room :rolleyes:
 
Easy tiger!:D

Henry doesn't fart, oh no. That's for amateur office dogs. He rolls in fox crap at lunchtime then sits and cheerfully reeks all afternoon, while all around him gag and choke:eek::mad:

He's just had a bath, I am getting some highly baleful looks:p
 
Otto only gets to be an Office dog between 5 and 6pm, otherwise he is an working outside dog and can stink all he likes! :D Plus, as I we have a dog shower at work, he'd be mighty foolish to go down the roll in something stinky route :D :D
 
Send the shep to me, he clearly needs worked :p although that will probably make him squeeeaaaaallll even more :p

I picked up mine last week apologising for their bolshyness only for the proprietor's wife to tell me she thinks they are some of the nicest natured sheps she knows - and they breed them :o so it's clearly only me they like winding up :p

Ah yes, but has he rolled in a dead crow yet? That really is a smell which is never forgotten, especially when the thing wasn't fully decomposed - probably only dead for about 24hrs....I had to drive home with my head literally out of the window, gagging, and then I sold the car as I could never get rid of the smell.....
 
Not only did Henry roll in poop, he did it on the evening we ended up doing two hours extra:mad: God only knows how we survived, my nose was starting to atrophy in self-protection:eek:

Many, many times:eek:

AND he snacked on the muckheap after rolling but before we did some training, so now all the dummies smell of horsepooh:eek::mad:

Manky creature!
 
They definately need to do something CC, they have had three in the time they've been boarding with us, all as ill manned as the one before!
We have a lovely Shep in called Odin at the moment, such a sweety! I've been doing his medication all week and he just lets me put them in his gob, no fuss :D I like doggies like him!
Unfortunately we get far more of the former than the latter :rolleyes: We are the last refuge of the dogs that get rejected from everywhere else, I take my life in my own hands everytime I take a dog in for grooming! :D
 
Oh jeez don't mentioned dead crows....we know where that will end up....the bin again!!!

Meh, can't stand people like that, doesn't do their rep any good, but you know there are nice ones..honest...sometimes...on certain days :p

Oh I feel the pain, at work we get

Owner
My dog has not eaten for a week and has been passing blood, and lost loads of weight.

Me
Im going to get the vet to call you back for a chat, we may need him in tonight but the vet is in surgery so you will get a call back in 10 mins

5 minutes has passed

Owner
You said the vet would call me

Me
It has not been 10 minutes yet

Owner
But he is dying he needs to be seen now, if he does it's your fault.

Me
Really, why? because I left him 1 week not eating, passing bloody crap and looking emaciated at present? 5 minutes will make little difference in the big scheme of things when you have left it a week:mad:

Vet
Can you bring him down at 10pm

Owner
I have no transport, can you collect him

I tell the truth folks, sometimes the nearest wall is tempting.
 
When I loaned a TB, the muck heap had a run off bit where a huge deep puddle collected in the winter. Normally, the dogs would take themselves off down the field but ond day, when it had been raining hard, Jake decided to go for a dip! :eek:He got in, rolled round, lay down again and drank it!:o:eek::eek:

oooooohhhhh pooor you! You've got MY sympathy, that's for sure!

We had a cracker today. A labradoodle the size of a shetland that's been coming for years has arrived today for the first time in seven months. Coat like a poodle. You see where this is going? Last time it was shaved off, couldn't we please just bathe and tidy it? This from NOT the dog's owners, but the dog owner's elderly parents, who are looking after the dog for the owners who are on hols in Turkey. Of course, never seen a brush in the past seven months, so I told her that it might have been a different story if hte dog was at least somewhat brushed, or had been in for a visit maybe 2 or 3 times since we last saw it Sorry, where's my clippers....I don't do emotional blackmail.

And if I may indulge myself in another moan?

I've got no saturday appts til sometime in 2011. Haven't for ages. But I do have a cancellation list ready. So when you've booked your dog in for a Saturday, and I ring you up on the Friday, and you answer the phone, if you don't plan to come on Saturday, at least friggen TELL me so that I might be able to call someone on the cancellation list....

*sigh* my weekend starts in 90 minutes! :D
 
I find Labradoodles seem to be the worst at the moment, I guess a lot of people don't no what they are getting themselves into with their coats! Luckily the three I get in regularly get clipped short and very regularly, so they are never in a mess.
That Goldendoodle was horrific though, Golden Retriever coat AND Poodle coat!! It's tail hair was about a foot and a half long! :rolleyes:

I have just finished playing Halloween games in all my lessons this morning, the two Spaniels I had to clip cancelled and for once I have all day off tomorrow, today has been a much better day :D
 
I don't envy your golden doodle. However, I seem to be the labradoodle and cockerpoo queen in my neck of the area. By the way, my hubby wants to know if you cross a labradoodle with a cockerpoo....do you get a cocker-poodle-do?

tsk tsk ;)

Saw my first adult example of this yesterday..a huge thing with a Spinone sort of head,humungous milk chocolate hairy body..and a bloody tail two feet long.Really ugly dog,a nightmare to look at,to me anyway.
 
I've heard that about goldendoodle coats being an utter nightmare, mixed coat. My collegue might have groomed one once but I've been pretty lucky on that front. I also don't do big dogs anymore, so that's partially why.

Haven any of you groomers come across the next generation of labradoodles - the MINI labradoodles? That's what I've been seeing lately. I see some about the size of a tibetan terrier, which to be honest, is far more preferable to me as they're easier to handle (on the table and for the owner, both obedience wise and coat wise).

Oh yes, and could some one just shut me up when I start spraffing nonsense. What the heck is "neck of hte area". Somewhere between "my area" and "my neck of the woods". WTF? I can't believe what sh....nonsense comes off my keyboard sometimes! LOL
