Monday at work

The good think about my Mondays, is that people is still talking about the latest episode of Groomer Has It, and since this morning I was featured on the AM NY, was much more to talk, so needless to say I run my mouth way more that I should, so I work from sun up to sun down, long day…But what it make my day much better was that I got to groom, Jasper, the Standard Poodle, and Asta, one of my dear Shih Tzus, and since he is going to AZ for a few days, he got a cute summer cut. “Chloe”, OMG the cutest sassiest Pom, Her owner likes her very short all over, and I’ve to say.. She does look good. “Dice” was at the salon today too, a very “macho” Maltese, full coat, beautiful and growls to anybody that gets close to my table when I’m grooming him, he comes every two weeks, so he is in great shape, and really enjoy getting groomed.

When I have so many of my favorites clients, time fly, but I feel it once I get home… and since is 5 de Mayo, I stopped for a burrito and a beer at a local restaurant.

This is all for now.

Have a great night!!!

Feliz Cinco de Mayo!!!!

Besos,

Sunny Monday in NYC

Another morning with a steamy cup of coffee and the news Paper, where I’m being interviewed AGAIN!!. Today the AM New York Magazine (Manhattan largest circulation daily) did a profile on me on their business section 180  “THIS CAREER ON PAWS”, Thank you Karen Tina for your patience, I’m so new on all this being interviewed that it takes a very talented and patience reporter to give me the time to warm up and get the best out of me, besides that when I’m nervous I talk louder and faster… so you know is hard to understand me J!!!.

Today is a long hard day at work, so I better leave the keyboard and grab the slicker brush!

Blog you later,

Jorge

Beautiful Sunday

This morning NYC was cloudy and on the cold side, but suddenly the sky open and spring is blessing us again. I’m still trying to fight this bug, not sure is a flu, a cold, or just a side effect from working way too much… But I pull myself together this morning and walk to work, groom a few dogs, including one of my old timers little Emmet a malti-poo full of attitude, and BTW, his Mom always bake cookies to bring to the store, so when we know he is due for a groom… we are all waiting wagging our tails when she walks in, today were some awesome brown sugar cookies, I eat so many that my eye balls were shaking J.

 I really enjoyed last night episode of Groomer Has It, it was, on my opinion, well edited and funny. Of course, when you are part of it, you keep remember not only all what you said, but what you heard that never made it to the air… and sometimes… it is a good thing… wile Groomer Has It was on I was texting back and forth with Jonathan and Jasper. And for all those who ask, Mallisa is not acting, that is the “REAL” her…. I wonder how much is she enjoying watching the show, and if it has impacted her “LOOKS…” Some people still irritate me wile I watch the show…

Below, I’m posting a video of a Groomer Has It fan, zookiemommy, I love the fact that she takes notes and have a video blog every Saturday after the show airs, She hates my voice J, and, between us, she is not the only one, I know I’m like a mix between Fran Drescher and Ricky Ricardo, Loud, Nasal and with a thick Spanish accent J, here you can’t hear me but for my grammar you can very well tell that English is my second language J.

Ok, I’m going to make some collard greens now, when I’m not feeling well I love comfort food, and by the way, I’m a very good cook.

Until my next blog entry, Hasta la vista!!!!!

Much love,

Jorge.

Ps/ Answering Randy’s post about him not being high maintenance, let me tell you, he is a filmmaker, and for over 4 years he followed Jackie Beat, a famous performer, you guys have no idea how many times I have to watch that documentary!!!!!!, so Randy…

Bitter sweet Kentucky Derby

Since I think I’m coming down with a flu, and the weather in NYC is pretty cold, I decided to, beside brunch with Bari and Charlie (my usual Saturday brunch buddies) do nothing but chill at home, defrosted some chicken soup that I’ve made a couple of days ago, and seat with anticipation waiting for the race to start, I have inherit that passion from my father, who owned a few race horses when I was growing up.
The favorites were a horse named “BIG BROWN” and a filly named “EIGHT BELLES”, (any comparison with the presidential race is on you). I was jumping out of my bed watching BIG BROWN take the last leg like a storm, great race!!, Shortly after we learned that “EIGH BELLES” was fatally injured right after crossing the finishing line in 2nd place and have to be euthanized. That was very hard to watch, since I love horses as much as I love dogs, and this kind of accidents make me re-think my passion for horse racing.
So my congratulations to “BIG BROWN” Team, and my heart felt condolences to the “EIGTH BELLES” Team.
You can learn more about the race Here

Happy Saturday!!!

How can you not start a day without a smile when you wake up to read all the nice things people is talking about me, I just feel so blessed, this morning I got the Daily News and there I’m, giving Spring Tips for dog owners, was a very fun interview with Amy Sacks, I LOVE IT!!, the pictures there were taken by Jen Halpern, she is Hysterical!!!!. Soon after, I got my Google alert that lead me to Robin Koury Pet & Life Expert website, THANK YOU!!!! , And yes, I’ll be doing some inside dishing on the show… like tonight, you better tune in to see some bad back stabbing!!!! Have you watched the teaser clips of Groomer Has It? Jonathan and Malissa are really going at each other!!! .

Early Friday

Good Morning.

What a surprise it was to wake up, surf around the Internet while I'm having my coffee and find out that www.dailykibble.com have an article on me on the Today Scoop!!!! Reading that make me start my day in a great mood!!!!, Now I need to call my friend Randy and force him to sit on the computer, read it, and give me his feedback. He is a high-maintenance friend, but I have to admit, deal with me is not that easy :)

Happy Thursday!!

Hello there!

Today is the last day of my grooming week, and I’m ready for my break, Last night NY Castings Party was boring, maybe it was just the wrong kind of crowd for me, but boring. My friend Clay was with me so is always a good time when Clay is around.

At work, I got a very cute new client, name Oliver, Mad cute Jack Russell mix, leave him a very cute maw oak and flag tail; after I finish, I got to play with Hudson, one of my very favorites. Having technical problems so I can’t post pics just yet.

I’m having a lot of fun at the Yorkie Chat, those Ladies are hysterical, it is definitely my Yorkie Fan Club, and their dogs are so cute.

Ok, is 8:00 pm and I'm watching Groomer Has It rerun :) I love re-runs!!!!! Shaving sheeps was a lot of fun!!!.

Going to run out and grab something to eat

Catch you all later!!!!!

Have a Great evening!!!
