I'm right there in front of him, there is no way he could jump. He's trained pretty well to not jump, even from the couch or bed; if there are no steps; he knows to stay. This grooming area is for just daily grooming – topknots and brushing, things of that nature. For his weekly grooming and hair trims, I still take him to the kitchen, and he gets his bath in the kitchen sink. I'm usually holding him with one hand, while I'm trimming him with the other. I never leave him on the counter unsupervised. |
I was just curious how it works out . Because I really liked your setup! And it is so much more cost effective . I know you would never leave Joey unsupervised. I was just wondering how hard it would be to groom without the grooming arm.
Joey must be a super great Yorkie, and very patient. I'd be scared to death that Suzi would try to get away from me on a table, then hurt herself. She does this when I sit on the couch just to for brushing.
