There are just too many horror stories. I don't use groomers for Ellie at all. It isn't worth it. If I had to use a groomer, I'd be sitting right there watching...

My mother works as a groomer, and her boss employs a Japanese groomer, who was actually trained in a grooming school in Japan. Mum's boss is now running grooming courses for people, and is trying to get it credited with the New Zealand Qualifications Authority.
I hope that respectable groomers in other countries try to move towards some kind of qualification as well - there are so many people on this forum scared of going to the groomers, which just does not happen in this country.
I've attached a photo from the grooming salon where my mother works' website. This is a Yorkie that visits them. I know that the groomers occasionally bring in breeders to teach them to perfect the pet cut for some breeds.
