(I had prior experience with my pek being kenneled at the groomers for hours.) The groomer was very careful in asking me what I wanted and I watched the whole time, trying not to let Ally see me. I wouldn't trust anyone else with my babies. The groomer is excellent with my girls...and Ally is an extreme DIVA when it comes to grooming! She will yelp before the comb even gets to her hair and shivers when she knows it's her turn for a bath. I've learned to bath them just before I take them (Ally & Tia) to the groomers so it is a little cheaper. I recently took the girls in for just a nail trim and she trimmed them (fixed my handywork) for nothing extra. I will not use a groomer that will not do it in front of me, while I wait. No kennels for my girls! They are frightened enough as it is! |
The problem with not using kennels at all and them not having some kind of experience with them is what if they had to be kenneled because of a surgery or having to stay over night at the vet?
