I feel sick already for leaving her there.
When I booked the appointment they asked if I wanted her shaved and I said no I don't want it shaved. I want it shorter, but not shaved. So I found that cute scissor cut and I took it in with me this morning. I showed it to the woman and she said "Oh so you want a scissor cut then?" and I said "yes" and she said "Well I don't do scissor cuts." and she turned around and asked the other woman if she had time today and she said no. So she told me I can either re-book or do what she had me booked in for which was just "bath and trim around face and feet" I told her to just go ahead and do what was booked because Layla's nails are wayyy too long and she won't let me touch them.
Then I noticed the stack of travel crates along the wall... big ones on the bottom and small ones on the top. There was a little poodle type dog pacing around in one of the small crates about 5 feet off the ground.
They told me they'd call me when they're done and I asked what time that would be (on the phone I was told about 3 hours... so I was going to pick her up on my lunch break) and she told me "Oh maybe about 2 o'clock"... 5 HOURS to trim my baby's face and feet? I could do it at home in an hour.
As I left they were pulling her across the floor with her leash and she was bracing herself and oh my gosh I almost cried on my way back to work and I can't think of anything else right now.... I hope I'm making it worse in my head than it really is.
