| Good luck, I would send a muzzle for him and also warn them of his behavior. One more suggestion, take him to a groomer with patience so he doesn't get abused becuase of his behavior...not that it should be an excuse to EVER hit a dog but some people think it is Be brave and like I said ask questions so he is safe!

Donating YT 500 Club Member | I picked a groomer who's been very highly recommended by everyone I've talked to. And they have good reviews on the Austin Area boards, she's been in business forever and I had a lengthy talk with her. I didn't get a muzzle. He does so much better with others than he does with me, so I think once I'm not there, he'll mind himself more. If they want a muzzle, I'll go get one IMMEDIATELY It may help me more during our brushings, too LOL

| bring your own muzzle? Most groomers have their own muzzles just in case they run across an uncooperative pet. As a groomer I have a set and one for every sized dog. Luckily, I rarely have to use one. Sue & Cricket Quote:

| i myself am a groomer and i've encountered a very scared dog of grooming, but what we ended up doing is i had the owner stay with me, we muzzled the dog and it only took about an hour to do her, she was a cocker spaniel. and she was really bad, growling, clawing and trying very hard to bite at me and her owner. but a good groomer should not tell you to never bring your dog back and a good groomer will never hit a dog or cat. a groomer should always know that there will be times you will encounter a "bad" pet, as they say, but for myself i welcome all pets, good or bad, into my shop and never refuse a customer.
