Grooming Biz & Gustav

SO....

Mum has decided that........

She's going to have a grooming business on the side since a lot of professional groomers out there make Airedales look like Schnauzers or umm... un-Airedale like.

Take Gustav, an 8 year old handsome for example,


We met him while we were at the beach. His mom asked mum who groomed me because Gustav was just groomed by a professional groomer 10 days prior to our meeting, but she felt that he looked a little "off". So mum gave her contacts to Gustav's mom and said she could groom him next time. Gustav's mom contacted us 2 days later asking if mum could fix him up. Mum of course agreed (like she can say NO to an Airedale!).

Gustav came over from North Vancouver this morning,


I watched as he surveyed and marked my yard. I was making notes so I could mark over later,


Then the fixing up process started, (me the BOOTIFUL me on the left, he the STINKY he on the right, Gustav the handsome in the middle on the table),


You see, two weeks ago, the groomer basically just clipped his body, head and ears and that was it. His facial/leg furnishings were left all bushy and untouched.


He was wearing leggings and had no butt,




Mum showed off his butt and took down his leggings!


She took the excess hair off his face, and showed off the nice brick like head he had,


(mum: Normally the entire head would be a lot shorter after a groom. However, since the hair on Gustav's head and ears were already growing, I didn't want to take the furnishings as short as I would normally take and have him look weird.)

Look at the handsome boy Gustav!!! His dad is Swedish, and when they decided that they were getting the KING of the Terriers, they decided to name their Airedale after King Gustav V of Sweden.


Now friends, this is where mum needs your help. It hit mum that she needed a business card when Gustav's mom asked for one and she didn't have one!! So she and the D-Guy have been working on a business logo for the business card and (possibly) website.

We need you guys to PLEASE tell us what this says, or if you are totally confused by what it's suppose to read,



I will put up more designs (and a explanation on the name) in my next post for you guys to choose from.

Thank you & Love nibbles to all!
