I kinda feel similar to this opinion. Especially the part where you say "shows a disconnect to how dog-lovers react" - that is so true! I may be over reactive, but I would want to know if there was ever a knick, cut, or blood.
We won't go to groomers anymore, but we used to take Wylie to the groomers when he was younger (prob about 4x). They cut his quick a couple times. To this day, 7 years later, he is utterly
terrified of having his claws cut. I have to hold him in a towel, in my arms, super tight, while Tony cuts. Meanwhile, Wylie is going crazy in my arms bc he's so scared, and he jerks after every claw is cut, bc of the fear that it will hurt. He was really traumatized by those cuts at the groomer.
That's also why I'd want to know, bc if a quick is cut - and if the dog is traumatized by clipping ever after, then I'd want to do the clipping at home.
Maybe not all dogs react the way Wylie did, but some do - so I thought I'd share it. Maybe Wylie has a sensitive pain threshold...?
