I am interested in finding Puddles a new groomer. The one I am using now is PetSmart (a hour away from me) and she does a good job. Well I thought she was until my vet said his ears needed more hairs removed and his toe nails were to long. That was only a week after he was groomed.....grrrrrr
The one thing I like about using a groomer where there are several employees, is that your pet is less likely be mistreated (well I hope anyway).
We have a new groomer in town that does it her self. Only her husband helps her and I am concern that Puddles could be treated harsh and no one would never know. They always takes glamour shots each time you have them groomed, for sell I am sure.
Do any of you have personal groomers? How do you know what's going on while your babies are in their care? If I go meet them, what should I look for?
Also, while on vacation I met a couple that had a Shitzu injured while being groomed. He had been restrained to tight by the collar. He has trouble eating his food and is given steroids now to help keep the area open. He also can no longer bark. I swear, if this had happen to Puddles .... some one would get hurt !!
Thanks for your suggestions !
