2014 was a year of ups and downs. Regardless, it was an amazing year. One that I am pleased that I lived through, but would not want to repeat. In October 2013 my home of 8 years was put on the market. At the time, houses in our area were selling within 2 or 3… Read More
My poor pooches. It had been so long since they had a groom, that my Maltese/Shitzu cross could have passed as an extra in Return of the Jedi as an Ewok! Amazing what several hours at Berwick Paws has achieved! And they were both dressed ready to party! (PS. I had this post all but… Read More
