Summing up my life...
"Hello, Groom shop?
I have this dear dog that's sweet as can be. As soon as you see her I know you'll agree. If it's alright, I'll be in about eight. If I'm not there at nine, it means I'll be late. Sweetie doesn't bite often, she knows it's 'not nice'. Just nips little children, and me once or twice. She doesn't like cages, can't stand other pets, and if she's upset she simply wets.
You may bathe her fur, but don't let it soak in. I prefer that water doesn't touch he skin. She has a bad back and can't sit or stand, so have her lay down while you empty her gland. She's allergic to powders and dips make her sneeze, so please use tweezers to pick out her fleas. She loathes being brushed and watch how you clip, she has ten thousand mats, but I don't want a strip.
There's a few more instructions so here's the list: Ignore that huge lump, it's only a cyst. Leave her back long to hide her bad hip. A French mustache to cover the wart on her lip. She's laid down in something that's black and quite gummy. But she always gets cold, so don't shave her tummy. Poodle feet, poodle tail, of course that's the style. Don't clip her nails, please use a file. A very high topknot, perfectly round. So what if there's little hair to be found. I'm sure with your talent, of you just use your noodle, you can make my Chihuahua look like a poodle.
There's a few other things you really should know, she wants some perfume and a polka-dot bow. I'll be there to get her, I can't say just when, but just in case, have her ready by ten.
Thank You, Good-Bye"
I'm not entirely sure who first wrote this little rhyme, but.... Yeah. Welcome to my life.
