Ollu's Grand Opening was a success!
We were happy to meet so many new 2-legged friends and their 4-legged companions.  Our professional pet stylist groomed 5 rescue dogs over the weekend supporting Under Dog Rescue and Small Dog Rescue Organization. Tad, Gloria, Ralph and Bubbles were cleaned up for their adoption days for Under Dog Rescue. Sophie is a hospice Shih Tzu fighting cancer and was tidied up for the Small Dog Rescue Organization which was holding an adoption event during the grand opening on Sunday.
