On Monday Robin was taken to his beauty makeover. Every 5 - 6 weeks he gets a makeover. That includes bath, haircut, nail clipping etc. The young lady that always does him works for a big pet store company and that is where Robin usually goes. They know each other, they are used to each other so this never creates any problem.
The lady got pregnant and in November stopped working at the store, but she told us she would continue doing this from home if we wanted to. So, in early November we took Robin to her house. She doesn't live far from us, and this was no problem. She did a fantastic job, away from the high pressure of the salon, and Robin behaved admirably.
This Monday was the second appointment for the little guy. In the meantime, the lady gave birth to a boy, but she is already working from home. We went to her house at the appointed time. She said that her mom would come out and pick up Robin and take him into the house.
My wife got a little nervous because she was apprehensive Robin would not take to this person. Well, not to worry. He immediately licked the lady's hand and pulled her toward the house, with swift steps up about ten steps up to the house. Never turned around to say bye!
Sunday he wouldn't go up or down the stairs, this time he was pulling the lady after himself. Two hours later he was done, nice and clean and very happy to see us again. The lady who did her told us he behaved very nicely. Happily roaming around the house, not barking at all. In the salon when a dog is done, they put him in a cage until he is picked up. In this house he was allowed to roam free and that made him very happy. I was very proud of the little guy.
Yes, and this service also cost quite less than when it is done in the store.
