I enjoy working with animals and making them beautiful...learning new things, seeing all different breeds of dogs. I'm sure you have already experienced some of the bad sides while working at a vet....such as dogs biting/being difficult, rude customers, cleaning up nasty messes, etc. While I know some groomers make excellent money, I don't make enough money really to even live on my own and working on commission can be frustrating. It's funny you ask when you work at a vet, because that's something I've thought of doing instead of grooming.
Well of course there's the animals you hate to see but then there's always the ones who come in a lot and are just a joy to be around. They "drown out" the bad animals IMO. Thanks for the info That's definetly something for me to consider.
