This's such a heartbreaking story and definitely isn't the first story I've heard about a dog dying at a grooming salon. But I also much agree with the fact that ALL groomers arn't bad. The very first time I took Sasha to get groomed, I was scared to death because of all the stories that I had heard about grooming salons. I did my research though and found a great place. What ended up being even better, was the day I dropped her off, I found out that a girl I went to school with my entire life, her mom ended up working there and I didn't even know it! She has been grooming her ever since and I know she's in good hands when I leave her. Plus, she's extremely reasonable with the price she charges me. I definitely trust her 100% when I leave Sasha. My heart goes out greatly to this owner who lost her poor pup as to anyone else who has lost their dog resulting from a grooming error, but you also have to remember that not all groomers are bad people. I'm not a groomer at all and yes some people who are groomers probably shouldn't be, but if you search around, it is possible to find one trusting enough to leave your dog with. But everyone has their own opinions about groomers and that can't change. Some people just prefer to groom their own dogs for safety and there's nothing wrong with that. Just don't go around critizing ALL of them when not ALL of them are bad.
God bless this owner for her great loss
