our biggest problem is traffic, it really hinders the ability to scale the business as travel times between jobs is just out of control
both, traffic starts at 2 and ends around 7-730.due to miles traveled servicing the greater area , or urban traffic snarls on major routes thru, in and around Seattle at all times of day?
or both...
the doggie training thing sounds cool
('cept for the kennel cleaning part and doggie pOOp patrols)
what do you teach them?
Hunt?
general obedience ?
Bomb sniffing?
rescue??
..lt..a.
One of the biggest problems we have with traffic is when school is in, everyone has to drive their little darlings, one to a vehicle, to school and pick them up again. Worst offenders are the private schools. How about mandating carpooling or taking the bus or walking? What happened to those days when kids walked to school through blinding snowstorms, uphill both ways?both, traffic starts at 2 and ends around 7-730.
Ya cleaning some poo is definitely part of it until I hire a kennel/helper person lol
I do competition obedience, personal protection, man tracking, scent detection. Schutzhund is the name of the dog sport I do which is similar to police grade k9s competing for which ones are the best.
The building will be for board and train, and also fitness day care etc
if you only knew how bad traffic can be... I cant imagine yours is anywhere near like Seattle.One of the biggest problems we have with traffic is when school is in, everyone has to drive their little darlings, one to a vehicle, to school and pick them up again.

Yeah, I have driven through and in Seattle and Puyallup many times. We don't have any expressways at all. Coupled with summer roadwork and construction, it's a zoo. Trying to build up work closer to home but have 30 years of referrals in the surrounding communities. I do charge more longer distances and am evaluating all of my prices right . With gas hovering around $7 per gallon, everything else has to go up. Had a lady call today for a 1 bedroom condo. I could tell when I told her it's $150, she thought that was outrageous. Of course, she's not the one filling up the tank at $160.if you only knew how bad traffic can be... I cant imagine yours is anywhere near like Seattle.
based on surveys we are like 4th I think in the US but that is based on # of people, how many owns cars etc.. but I think we are actually #1 we have no east/west freeways and the entire city is shaped like an hour glass.
everything funnels into the bridges in the center
