Marketing 101

















Before....






















After.....

Indy visited the grooming salon over the weekend, which I discovered is now under new ownership.  In a very nice introductory gesture, we were given a refrigerator magnet that features our handsome young man all spit and polished, along with the name, address and phone number of the groomer.

That's a darn smart marketing idea. Who's going to throw away an adorable picture of their pet? So now featured prominently on the refrigerator is Indy's newly shaved mug and free advertising for the groomer.

Take note, all ye who have pet products or services to sell. We proud parents just love to look at pictures of our pets!

Sorry I haven't been around to visit much but Mommy has been so busy helping take care of Shelby and now that Shelby might be pregnant it's gonna be really hard to keep up.
