I have been doing fleece scarved lately as well. For christmas last year, i made dog cookies and gave a baggie of them to some of my clients. In the past i have done rawhide chew sticks with a bow on them, and 2 years ago i got small wooden tree ornaments and we painted the dogs name on them.

Apparently they washed her hair (that has hair extension) and it has matted her hair. They had spent 2 hour trying to get the mats out. So I said jokingly hey I do that for a living lol. Well they were so desperate they asked me if I could help them some how. So I went to the salon ( 2 stores away) and grabbed my bottle of “Stuff” and the mat zapper. So I started to de-mat ...
