(Keep in mind that we started grooming Rojo at 2PM, loaded him at 3, did "meet-and-greet" from 5-7, and waited outside in the cold and rain with the dogs until their turn to walk at 8:30! Make sure the sound is on, and watch for the two people that reached out and touched Rojo's back legs- what a llama!!)
My dear friend and assistant, Toni, goes with us on visitations whenever Shannon has to work her "real" job!
