Oh dear. Jasper is so going to hate me next Friday. It's his first grooming.
For the first time they said they bathe them then they do the face, bottom, feet, clean ears, trim nails and anal gland expression (which I told them I do not want them to do). They will use scissors to trim the ends of his body coat to even it out. They don't do more because they want it to be as pleasant as possible and get them used to the trimmers and noises the first two or three times. But...he will still hate me. Were the rest of you this nervous the first time? I feel like I did when I had to go back to work after maternity leave. I cried all the way to work the first week.
