I stopped going to groomers after one of my little ones got seriously hurt twice, and the second time we almost lost her. It just became too fearful for me. I know there are a lot of wonderful groomers who are wonderful and gentle with dogs, and that's why, with proper education, questioning, and research, we can search out to find someone trustworthy, compassionate, kind, and gentle. I have been too scarred from how Kiwi was hurt and was unable to go to a groomer again, but I don't think it's an indictment on all groomers. Poor Chloe must have suffered terribly, but the person sharing her story helped educate so many people. I learned something very important that I shared with anyone I knew whose dogs were groomed outside of the home. We learn so much here at YT, and we are able to be better dog parents because of it. I wish those cage dryers would be outlawed, too.
