I've had my Gracie groomed by many groomers, too, and hated each and every one of them. I even had the groomer at the vet groom her and she looked like they forgot to use scissors. AND I paid for that??? I took her to Petco once and they razor burned her so badly on her private area that it bled and scabbed over. It was awful! This time, I crossed my fingers and took her to Petsmart across from Baybrook Mall. Someone in the neighborhood has a standard poodle done and he looks very good. They did a terrific job on Gracie! They were polite and did exactly what I asked them to do. With Gracie, she has wavy hair, so it's best if she's got a puppy cut, but I didn't want them to cut off her facial hair that we've spent a year growing out! They did great! I only took one of my dogs at a time just in case it was a nightmare.....Avery is next! He's going to have just the opposite done to him.....long body hair and a shorter face cut. |
