[Mama_to_Rex]

Rex has been going to the same groomer every week for over a year. That is the only groomer he knows. However, this past Friday, the groomer called me and told me that she had cut Rex's neck and that he would need stitches. Of course I was frantic, drove to the groomer and took him immediately to the vet. He ended up getting 11 staples put in and will have to have them in for a little over 2 weeks. During this time, he cannot wear a harness, so he'll have to stay at home since we have a fenced in back yard. He usually goes with me to work during the week. But he always has on his harness and is on a leash when I take him out at work.
She did pay for the vet visit, but he hasn't really been himself (he's getting better), and the injury is putting a burden on me. (Instead of just being able to take him with me when I leave, I have to be sure not to leave him at home too long. We live about 25 miles from where I work. And-- giving him his antibiotics is a fight!)
He'll never go to another groomer again.... Should I just let it go at this point??? What would you all do?
I attached a picture of his neck.
