There are many folks on this forum and beyond who choose to use dog groomers and have great experiences. Furthermore, there are many wonderful groomers out there who take their craft seriously and it is more than just a job to them. Again, it is a matter of personal choice whether or not to use a groomer or do it yourself and I respect that. But it’s also not fair to infer that all groomers are careless and don’t take their jobs seriously. JMHO. |
It is a personal choice, however NO ONE will care about me baby like I do. They may take their craft seriously, but that's pretty much as far as it goes. They get tons of dogs to groom daily, and it is their job to groom them, not to love them, or coddle them. There is nothing special about one customers dog to them versus the other. I would rather put myself through the stress of learning how to groom my Coco then put her through the stress of having a complete stranger handle her. I was squeemish about the nails and ear plucking but you live and learn. I could, not now, not ever, trust a perfect stranger with my baby, even if it's just a haircut. That way I am responsible for my own dog, not someone else. I would not risk something like this happening because the groomer is too busy to remember my dog. Lots of people have great experiences and I'm sure people who have used the groomers in the original post have had those as well. It only takes one time and one accident. Personally I love my baby wayyyy too much to risk that. JMHO
