I wonder if, once mine moves out, if I’ll be able to worry less about her. Something about her living at home makes me feel responsible and sleep with one ear on the phone. I don’t like it.

Lawsuits have popped up , some club operators grooming without a state issued drivers license, some having a six pack of barley pops or more while grooming. Some are soooo fucking hard on equipment it becomes a huge cost / liability issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm amazed at all the improvements they have made on campus and I see they are doing some major road work on Presque Isle Ave. I wish I would have stopped at Jean Kay's and got a Pastrami Supreme!

Asking price +++ is common right now. Contractors are involved in so many big projects that it's almost impossible to find them for smaller jobs. It's also getting more recognition for outdoor opportunities - bike trails; hiking and stuff like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow...it really is a cool place and I'm glad it's getting recognition for the outdoor stuff....it's one of the reasons she wanted to go there. What are they building down at the lower harbor....looks pretty sizable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not really a license. There used to be a groomer awareness course at the annual trailmasters meeting. After the lecture you got a certificate of completion without taking any form of test. Now you have to watch a video and take a simple test to get the certificate. The reason for it is to help keep the cost of insurance premiums lower for the clubs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
