This year we have thunderstorms in the afternoon to be followed by fireworks this evening.  This boils down to no outdoor cookout and a lot of loud booming noises outside!

In 2014, as we embarked on our mission to transform the pet grooming industry, we meticulously crafted a list of ingredients that would never be in any of our all natural dog shampoos.
