i took lily may to the groomer last week. i comb lily and do a little maintaince grooming on her. the groomer charges $20, when i picked lily may up she came out and told me how good she was to groom. she only charged me $15 because she was so easy to groom. i work with her so she isn't afraid of grooming, it is easier for the groomer and safer for my furbaby.

That's great! It makes it easier on everyone when they are use to being groomed.

I was glad this was not a horror story! My axel was very good last time for only being 5 month old, I was so glad

That is great to receive a discount because she was so well behaved. I am sure you are a proud mommy. Now you have extra money for fun stuff.

where do you live that a grooming only costs $20? it is more like $45-$60 here on LI. i actually took a grooming course this past semester because with 6 yorkies of my own, plus a foster dog most of the time, it is too expensive! i will tell you, though, after taking this class i can understand why they charge that much - especially when it is a difficult dog. i am just happy that i can now give my pups a nice cut. it may not be perfect but it's just hair - it will always grow back! LOL

Shew...you had me worried there for a sec. Thought you were gonna tell us a BAD grooming story~lol
My groomer gives me a discount too...but it's because I made all the curtains for her shop when she opened up

But she does tell me that Callie Lou is well behaved when I take her in, and I give myself credit for that because like you, I do some grooming myself between her visits. I started when she was a tiny thing with her nails and keeping her ear tips clipped..sanitary cut, bathing, brushing...etc. Then by the time she was ready to go to a real groomer she was used to the sound of clippers and hairdryers and all of that. It really helps.
