It is with a heavy heart that I write this post....

​

As many of you know, 2020 was detrimental to more business than I can count, mine included. We spent the year making changes and decisions that I never dreamed we would be faced with. As a business owner, I try to be as prepared as I can be but COVID was more than any of us expected. While certain aspects of my business could be adapted, others couldn’t. With that, I have made the extremely 𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐝 𝐝𝐞𝐜𝐢𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐨 𝐜𝐥𝐨𝐬𝐞 𝐛𝐨𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐍𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫 𝟏𝐬𝐭, 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟎. Please know this decision did not come lightly and I’ve spent endless hours running over it in my head, trying to figure out how to keep this part of my business alive. Looking into the empty yard that was once filled with dogs running and playing is truly heart wrenching and a constant reminder of what we lost last year.
