One thing to keep in mind about groomers.....there is no regulation concerning groomers. There are very few places that even require that a groomer attend a grooming school. Some learn online and some just start doing it. Places like PetSmart train their own groomers. It is much easier to shave and chop of a dog's coat than to spend time doing what the customer wants. I have gone through some groomers over the year and the majority of them just want to shave and chop. I have a really great groomer now and she does exactly what I want but even she would rather cut more than what I want her to. Gracie has a beautiful coat and if someone ever cut it after what we have been through to grow it out I would be furious.
Any business that will not do as the customer requests is not worth supporting with your hard earned money. |
