My heart is broken over losing our Ann. It is evident from the guest book how much she was loved by people and animals alike.

Due to the power outage and having to open our house up to relatives, we were unable to attend Ann's memorial service. We had planned to be there and our thoughts that day were so torn between helping our family and being with you all. I hope you realize how much we love you all and how much we loved Ann!

Angel with a bow in her hair after Ann groomed her
Dear Family and Friends of Ann,
What a beautiful picture of Ann! I can imagine the crushing sadness and loss you feel from Ann's passing, as I have felt this myself for my loves. I cry for you. Ann groomed my Samoyed, Angel, for the five years Angel was with me. Angel died of liver cancer on August 22, 2011. Angel was last at your shop in early spring 2011.

I am so saddened and my heart broke when I received my letter. I have been bringing my dog Fee Fee to The Dog House for years and Ann always kissed her bye. Both of us will miss her tremendously

I am saddened at the news of Ann's passing. I didn't even know she was ill. My thoughts and prayers go out to her family. She will be missed by Riley and Chloe and by us. They never minded going to see Ann, she was like a day with their favorite Aunt. Hugs to Julie. I know you will feel a void because she has been by your side working for years. You were both a great team. We send our prayers and love your way.

So sad to hear of Ann's passing. She was a great lady and my little Stitch loved to be groomed by her. She was always such a sweet person to talk to and I always felt safe to leave Stitch with her.My prayers are with her family.
