Unfortunate Grooming Experiences

Unfortunate Grooming Experiences

For many of us, we are entirely comfortable with taking our dog to the groomer, knowing that they are in good hands, and anxiously waiting to go pick them up when they are finished. We anticipate seeing their fresh-new haircut and can’t wait to see them knowing that they are well groomed and clean with trimmed nails and smelling like they just left the doggy salon. This is the experience that many of us have when we take our dog to the groomer. This, however, is not always the case. I have recently learned that many people are not comfortable with their groomer and have had lousy grooming experiences which make them apprehensive to even take their dog to a groomer in the first place. In an article not long ago, a dog that had his ear chopped off at a grooming service. If this was not bad enough, the grooming agency tried to hide the fact that they accidentally cut the dog’s ear off and tried to tell the dog’s owner that it was like that when the dog was dropped off. This, of course, is utterly preposterous and the grooming agency was completely at fault. Many other people have taken issue with different grooming agencies because some groomers are mean to the dogs and abuse them as a way to try and get them to comply. This is awful as well.

Your Dog Should Love Their Groomer

Your dog should not shy away from the groomer or act scared. They should be excited knowing that they are about to be spoiled and pampered. If your dog seems off when they arrive at the groomers, then there’s probably something wrong, and the groomer may not be treating them the way they should be treated. It may also mean that you should probably find a new groomer. Unfortunately, not all groomers enjoy their jobs, and not all groomers have the kindness and patience it takes to work with dogs. Some dogs are scared, exhibit signs of anxiety, or bite and snap in defense when the clippers get close to them. This is only because they are not comfortable, so it takes a special kind of person to be able to calm a dog who is scared and help them trust the groomer. Being a groomer is not for everyone. Some groomers are good at their jobs, and some are not. Just because they can cut a dog’s hair and give them a bath doesn’t make them a good groomer.
