| - According to the adage, fools rush in where angels fear to tread. And so, only after my girlfriend and I suddenly found ourselves the new owners of a 6-week old Shih-Tzu puppy at 5:30 p.m. on Saturday, did we begin to realize the magnitude of our predicament. Wag N' Wash is on our drive home, so we called them to see if they were still open, and they informed us that they would be closing at 6:00. We hurried there, hoping we could make it before they closed.
Our experience was top-notch. Although we got there a few minutes before 6:00, nobody raised an eyebrow. Employees at many places would resent having to help a customer who showed up at closing time, and would rush that customer. Not here. There were four employees cleaning and tidying up. They all came over to meet our new family addition, and were genuinely happy to help us put together a "puppy starter kit." Their suggestions were particularly helpful to me, as a first-time dog owner. Even the groomer who was still there came out to meet her, and offered up a "sanitary" clipping and wash.
On Sunday, we commented several times about how much harder it would have been to have gotten through the first night if the good folks at Wag N' Wash hadn't been so awesome. So we went back!
