Marie D'Souza's request for information on nearby veterinary and grooming services reminds me of the hairy dog joke:
A woman's dog had a very severe problem with excessive hair. In her efforts to help her pooch the woman tried grooming the hair...really irritating the dog. So she tried pulling the excess hair out...drove the little fellow crazy! Finally she gave up and took the dog to her vet. After examining the dog, the vet diagnosed a significant problem that only a high-potency depilatory could solve. After presenting the prescription to the pharmacist to be filled she was handed the bottle with counselling on its use. The druggist said "Ma'm, if you're going to use this on your legs... you probably shouldn't wear stockings for 3 or 4 days". To which the woman replied indignantly "I'm not using it on my legs!" So the pharmicist says "well, if you're using it on your face you shouldn't use makeup for 5 days or so." The woman began to storm out of the store, stopped at the door, fuming, and said "I'm not using it on my face! If you must know... I'm using it on my Schnauzer!" "Well, in that case," the druggist says "don't ride a bicycle for about a week.. Marie wrote: Can anyone suggest a good vet for our dog?
