I am soooo sorry for you! The bad part, is that he will probably be extra scared the nest time he goes to a groomer. They don't forget easily. I cut my own dog. That way, at least she won't be abused or cut bald. She is a monkey, but we manage. She is soo good letting me pluck the hair in her ears, but hates her feet done. I need to h ave my husband hold her leg out to me and then I can get it.
At any rate, I hope you clear uop really fast and don't get an infection or anything.

OMG ...I can ALMOST understand a nick but not multiple cuts - poor baby - Man - why can't people treat our pets like they would their own when we trust them with their care for a FEW HOURS ! We pay them them for their training - and expect them to treat our pets with care and gentleness - and to get cut and end up in the vets over a Grooming is nuts !

That's very sad - I'm so sorry he was hurt ...wow - Glad no stitches were needed too - man - I would be so IN THEIR FACE ..it's never happened to us - but we did have a rough groomer once...and I had a nice talk with her boss - but to see actual cuts would send my rocket to the moon

Villette--the crazy thing is, this isnt the 1st time he was there. This was his 8th app with her. She has always done a great job with him. She would always tell me how good he was, never wiggle or anything like that! I was sooo upset. I called toady, and got the answering machime. She is her own boss, so I only have her to complain to. She has it in her own house. I dont get it, I really dont. So now, I have to find a new groomer....So hard in this area. My vet said this lady was great. All of my friends go to her for many years now, and none of them have ever had aproblem! Crazy. I was soo angry!!!!! But so far, Luig seems fine. Much better than yesterday.
And I counted a total of 7 nicks plus the big goug on his chest. And the nicks are everywhere on his legs, and tummy and chest. The more I think about it, the more upset I get. And now we have a really bad haircut to look at for at least 5 weeks til it starts to grow in.

oh sweetie - I wonder if she had someone else cut him ? that just doesn't sound right...That's ALOT of cuts ! I've never nicked mine while grooming and I know they can wiggle - but if I did ONE nick - I would be 100 times more careful ...how she got to 7 cuts is crazy !

I truly hope that didn't hurt like I think it did - man - All those cuts PLUS a big gouge ? It sounds like she may have been drunk or let someone else groom him ? Poor him and POOR YOU !! That really sucks. I'd be so upset I couldn't think straight.....

I hate to say this - but after Chanel was hurt by that mean groomer - she cried EVERY time I took her for a ride for months - I had to keep taking her on short trips and stuff to get her to forget she met the groomer from h*ll.

I hope he doesn't remember that miserable day - People can make mistakes and I really understand a nick but in your case - that's 6 mistakes too many.

Chanel and Cheri send really big hugs and I hope he's ok - I know MOM is traumatized and I sure don't blame you for that one bit !

Thanks Villette---So far he doesn't seem too traumatized...still loves going in the car!!!!! I have been washing his big wound (gouge) 4 times a day, and he doesnt seem to mind that at all. I think I may order a coulpe videos and learn how to cut groom them myself. Can't be too hard--I do do hair for a living! haha!!! But we will see. I have a client who has this one groomer that will come to her house and she is fabulous, but a bit pricey. But no price is too high for my baby!!! Thanks for your concern. You are soo sweet!!! Tell Chanel and Cheri says he loved thier hugs!!!! He sends them some puppy lovin back!!!!
