I fell in love with Mr. Jack. He was professional, knowledgeable, friendly, and a delight, all wrapped together. He brought Matt, along with him, who was also a delight. My little baby, toy poodle, Indi, didn't even bark at them, which, further let me know that they both, are aces. Thanks, so much.The Bug Man, is The Man!
