Canine ( Dog ) Wash Day.

Tools of the Trade
The Shampoo and Cream Rinse are acquired via Ryan's Pet Supplies. Mail Order or internet. I spend $25. Per gallon now that will last me well over a year. It is mixed 16parts water/1 part product. These are professional groomers supply's used by breeders. I can easily spend $30. Per visit to a Pet Co. for one dog. I Had to do this during recovery from my knee surgery. The animal was not groomed the way I would of preferred and she was traumatized, exposed to kennel cough.

Natures Miracle=a great product for any pet owner $ 25 a gal but well worth it it is an enzyme.
Econo Groom Shampoo 16/1 (16 parts water) it rinses clear leaving no residue on dogs skin a big problem for most grooming
Silk Cream Rinse a must!!!!!! I love this stuff mix 16/1 (16 parts water) I use plastic rubber made spout containers with a (NO GLASS). NOW EVEN IF YOU USE OTHER SHAMPOO MIX IT DOWN WITH WATER it will rinse out better.

By Maya Angelou

'A woman's heart should be so hidden in Christ
That a man should have to seek Him first to find her.'

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not shouting 'I'm clean living,'
I'm whispering 'I was lost, Now I'm found and forgiven.'

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I don't speak of this with pride.
I'm confessing that I stumble and need Christ to be my guide.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not trying to be strong.
I'm professing that I'm weak and need His strength to carry on.

When I say.. 'I am a Christian' I'm not bragging of success.
I'm admitting I have failed and need God to clean my mess.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not claiming to be perfect,
My flaws are far too visible, but God believes I am worth it.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I still feel the sting of pain...
I have my share of heartaches, so I call upon His name.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not holier than thou,
I'm just a simple sinner Who received God's good grace, somehow!

Words have power. Here are a few of my favorite sayings.

  • A warm cup of tea is like a cuddle with a friend.
  • The North American Indians have a more eloquent word for ‘friend’ than we do in English. In their language, the word for friend literally means, “the one who carries my sorrows on his back.”
  • Return with Honor
  • The sage anticipates things that are difficult while they are easy, and does things that would become great while they are small. All difficult things in the world are sure to arise from a previous state in which they were easy, and all great things from one in which they were small. Therefore the sage, while he never does what is great, is able on that account to accomplish the greatest things."
  • "HOME IS WHERE YOUR STORY BEGINS"
  • “Live so that when your children hear these words they think of you… Fairness Caring Integrity Honesty Love Trust.”
  • "O Lord help my words to be gracious and tender today, for tomarrow I may have to eat them."
  • "No man has ever been shot while doing the dishes"

Zephaniah 3:17 NLT
"For the LORD your God has arrived to live among you. He is a mighty savior. He will rejoice over you with great gladness. With his love, he will calm all your fears. He will exult over you by singing a happy song."
