Sadly, our camera died just as Lei Shannon's Show started this weekend at Mary's! Now that's enough to make a preacher swear!

The last time we took Miss Amber for a hair cut they nicked her in 2 places and you all know how we feel about our pets! We vowed that was the last time we will ever go to one of those big box stores for grooming. The very creative advertising for the Reef Dog Gifts & Grooming (2820 Beach Boulevard, ReefDogGrooming.com) in Gulfport caught our eye. Owner and operator Mary O' Malley gave Miss Amber the best cut ever! Mary told us that when Miss Amber was finished she jumped back up on the table and wanted more! Miss Amber highly recommends you check out Reef Dog for yourselves.
