If they don't want to do that, I won't do their dog (b/c I am not bathing a matted dog and getting left with the possability of that dog getting an infection from wet matts left on their skin). If that wasn't the case, then SHAME on him for not consulting you first on what he was going to do!!
It is only okay to shave someone's dog if the owner consents to it. How hard is it to pick up the phone and call the owner if a groomer thinks it needs to be shaved?
