| Has Bella had all her shots? You really do not need to take her out until all shots are completed. |

Donating YT 500 Club Member | No she shouldn't be going to groomer yet. The groomer I went to first wanted her at 3 mo or sooner. Vet said absolutely not until 6 mo. & all shots completed. What did your vet say? Has she seen the vet yet? I can understand groomers wanting to get them young & to help them learn the process, but there is too much health risk at such a young age.

| Yes please wait until she has all her shots!! Peanut was a fluff ball when he was a puppy bc I wouldn't take any risk of letting him catch anything!!! What you can do to get her use to people touching her.. is to brush her.. play with her feet and touch her ears..Make a habbit of it and when you do take her she will kinda know whats going on

| I would definitely NOT take her. Keep her home and healthy. Groomers are a breeding ground for germs, things are not sterilized or really even disinfected, it's gross. If you must take her to a groomers (meaning there is no way you can groom her yourself) then wait until after all shots are done. She is just too sweet to take the risk!

| 10 weeks is a bit young. If you really need her groomed, I would hire someone to come into my house. But other than that, it's not that hard to learn how to do yourself, especially if the pup just needs a little trim. I would wait. Jackson was about 4 months old, a little over for his first grooming.
