Missed posts

I've missed a few steps along the way on this blog so here's a few pictures from the
last few weeks.

Insulation - We used blue jean insulation so putting it in was like stuffing in cotton balls rather than itchy, yucky fiberglass.

















The outside of our building is done in HardiPanel. It's cement board in 4 x 8 sheets. It went up quick, looks ultra modern and is supposed to be durable. We used it inside in the dog room also so that the walls will be more scratch and water (pee)proof.

Grass!



Things are finally starting to look finished. We just covered our small dog yard in artificial turf. It will be pesticide free and water-saving. The dogs will love it because it's just like real grass and the customers and employees will love it because it doesn't get muddy. I'm so excited.

Construction Update

It's been forever since I've posted but construction has been keeping me really busy. We're getting close to opening now. The walls are being textured as I type. Then comes the painter, floor guy, and the finish work by the plumber, electrician and hvac guys. We hope to move in in 3 weeks.
