I am happy to report that yesterday went swimmingly! I helped groom two dogs, one Maltese and one Miniature Poodle, and it was so much fun! I was crazy nervous, like shaking nervous, but once I got started it came back to me and they seemed rather pleased with my work :)
The two owners both have 5 dogs, and compete with them in dog shows. I must have made a good impression sense they asked me yesterday (my FIRST DAY) if I wanted to be their "Kennel Girl" and go to dog shows with them to help out!!! Super excited about this, I hope it's something that actually happens!
They are both very calm and gentle with the dogs, which I like, and they both showed general interest who I am. One of them is actually Finnish, and moved to Sweden for Love (Sound familiar???) So we spent a lot of time talking about what it's like to move to a new country and basically start over again from scratch. It's nice to have someone I can relate to on that level.
All and all yesterday was a great day, we had so much fun that we actually lost track of time and I missed my buss! So a half hour of overtime on my first day, but I didn't mind at all :)
Hurray!
Love,
Miss Mango
