November 5, 2004. It was a late Thursday afternoon when I took over as owner of Happy Dog. The client list I started out with was small but I was confident that it would grow. The day after I signed as owner I lost 10 clients immediately. The first winter there was more snow than I had scene in a while (or maybe I just wasn't outside for eight hours a day). We had 3 weeks of ten degree weather and then 13 days of rain in the spring. I commuted from the south shore for over an hour each way daily.
My clearest moment was the day after the rain stopped. It was nine in the morning, bright sun and 70 degrees. I was walking a huge Rotty and Dobermann (Bico and Precious) dragging me everywhere around the park. As each step went I had a grin from ear to ear. I really think I made the right choice and could not have been happier with what I do for a living.

Thanks to all my clients past and present for six wonderful years of playing with your dogs.
