I would call the groomer tomorrow and take them back up there. Show her what she did that was wrong and tell her you are upset about it. Also stay there with them and have her redo the areas that weren't touched. That way it will get done and you'll be there and KNOW that she's doing it right. Since she didn't do it right the first time, she shouldn't charge you anything more to fix it.
I think it's really important to let a groomer know when you are unhappy. And I hate to see you lose your money and not have things done. I know she already messed up the noses but at least you can get the sanitary cuts done like you need.
So far as no bows at all...I think that's wierd. She should at least have the little rubber bands and some ribbon...
I used to work at a grooming shop/dog boutique and learned how to groom Lacy myself (I only tip ears, trim feet, and do sanitary areas). And I just don't trust anyone to cut Lacy's hair. I trust the people where I worked to take good care of her of course but the thought of leaving her to get her hair cut and taking a chance that they *might* forget my instructions and mess up just scares me. I know it's just hair but it's important to me. So I just groom her myself now. That way I know I'm not going to cut anything off I didn't want cut! |
Yes, it is so irritating, especially when I said do this & don't do that. She even asked me if I wanted the list back when I went in there - so she did have it. I know I should go back there, but I'm such a wimp about stuff like that - but she did tell me to call if I had any questions. I'm just not sure, she's open on Saturday's & I'm swamped with things to do tomorrow & so much to do this next week before Christmas. I'll just have to call her, the worst she can tell me is no - and if that's the case that will be even more telling.
Hair's important to me to - we work so hard to look just so & a few hrs with the groomer & nothing is the same for mths.
