I brought Darwin to the groomers once to shave his ears so they would stand up. We were there for almost two hours and she tried to charge us only $10 for her time. I gave her $20 but I also decided to do the grooming at home - nope, I'm not that great at it but both Darwin and Mabel will stand nicely for me while I shave or brush them. I always cut my own hair so paying for my dogs just didn't seem fair!!
