ABOUT THE DOGS:
Buster is a new client of groomer Lauren Warshaw. Owners Jay and Debbie Callin purchased Buster from a breeder as a puppy. Big and hard to control, Buster has no manners. Lauren has a very hard time cutting his nails and getting him into the tub.

Jack is a rescue that his owners Koceya and Jennifer Nsubuga adopted as a puppy. Jack is a known "humper," relentlessly humping Lauren, the owners' kids, and most visitors to the house. Jack is also terrified of the blow dryer and will even try to bite it.

Marley is also a rescue who was adopted by his owners Alex and Chris Gregg 3 1/2 years ago. He is a nervous dog, often biting at Lauren during his appointments. Marley is fearful about hands by his face or ears, and he despises bath time.

ABOUT THE GROOMER:
Lauren, an avid dog lover, left a very profitable sales career to pursue a dream of working with dogs. A few years ago, Lauren met someone at a dog expo who suggested mobile grooming. The following week, Lauren contacted the California School of Dog Grooming and scheduled her interview. By February of 2006, Lauren had completed the required coursework and graduated at the top of her class. She now runs the Club Doggie Grooming Salon, which services the desert cities near Palm Springs, California.

BEHIND THE SCENES:
The Mobile Groomer shoot was probably one of the most ambitious the Dog Whisperer crew has ever accomplished, with an early morning start, multiple shooting locations and a long drive back to Los Angeles.

Could someone get word to the idiots who wrote the script for the recent documentary on George Washington that as a commander he was not "lying" was not a "lier" for practicing disinformation against the British! I could not believe that these simpletons putting on this program equated practicing spying during wartime with being deceitful, dishonest, and with a lacking of moral fiber by Washington. This program was a disgrace, and NATGO should correct this propoganda and apologize for its content.
