How’s Business? Great.

One thing I wish everyone knew about this business: That we are open six days a week with late pick up and always crate dogs and cats for safety reasons.

Something you offer that a customer won’t find elsewhere: Love and compassion for your animals.

Advice to young entrepreneurs: It’s not just playing with puppies. It’s hard work.

My first job: Dollar Tree.

The key to a successful business: Hard work and lots of motivation.
