So about every 4–6 months we take our dog, Lucas “Big Lou (aka Lewis)” to the vet, who has to put him under sedation to cut his hair (he’s a rescue who’s violent - to put it mildly - around scissors). ✂️ The last time I took him, the vet said, “Bob, in all seriousness… I’ve never seen anything like it. I gave him a dose that would take down a horse and he actually came out of it and bit the technician.”So you can imagine when our 16-year old son told us that his buddy has an Uncle Tony who could groom Big Lou, we were like, “NO WAY!” So, at a vet cost per cut that rivals an upscale woman’s salon, Sonia and I said, what do we have to lose? And we took Lucas to PETicures at Bell Works in Holmdel.Our boys stopped their pickup basketball game for a group prayer; My wife and I dropped off Lewis and were so concerned for the groomer, Lisa, that she politely asked us to stop and trust her; and our older son was texting from college (concerned for the groomer) to keep him posted.My wife and I dropped off Lucas, said a prayer (literally), grabbed a bite to eat, and nervously paced and paced and paced (Bell Works has a nice indoor walkway). Don’t you know 10 minutes turned into 20, which turned into 30. We peeked in and Lucas actually looked happy!!! Sure enough, we got the call that he was ready!We picked up our little man and he was not only chipper but dapper! 😎 A shout-out to Lisa the groomer. We are believers now! 🙂10 stars is in line! 🙂⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
