I groom all four of by Yorkies and each of them handle it in very different way. I too will hold their chin hair in order to stop for harming them when I am clipping their eye hair. For the most part they handle it very well. One will struggle the whole time I am grooming her even though I have been doing it for 5 yrs. Another will yip and yipe at the simplest thing and just scare the crap out of me. But it needs to be done, and I dont trust anyone else to do it (not even my sister who ownes her own grooming business) just because I know how frustrating it can be.
Im glad that you spoke up and that the man now knows how his pup was being treated. People have to be able to trust that their groomers are taking every precaution so that they are not causing harm to their animals while getting the job done. But also without taking it too far..
