GAS Denise Law started to groom dogs as a teenager. She was 19, living in Brooklyn, N.Y., and raised poodles. She discovered the puppies sold better with cute little haircuts.
About 45 years later, shes still grooming dogs. She recently opened a business, Paws Grooming, in Gas and works exclusively with smaller dogs, those 20 pounds or less.
Shes taken a break from grooming off and on through the years, mostly to run restaurant businesses. Until recently, she hadnt done much grooming since she moved to the area about 10 years ago. She mostly helped take care of her mother, who passed away in January.
