This is just heart breaking
Our thoughts and prayers go out to the family 💔💔💔

On 8/28 a cocker spaniel, named Reba was dropped off at Fluff and Love groomers in Brooklyn, NY for a bath and paw clean up by the owner, Bashir “Frankie” Bejaoui.

Reba’s owner hadn’t heard back so she walked up and see if she was ready. When she got there Bashir told her that Reba needed more time as she had become anxious and so he put her in the crate to calm her down.

When Reba’s owner looked at the small crate she noticed Reba had a thick blue collar around her neck and was unable to breathe. Her eyes were rolled into the back of her head and the blood vessels in both eyes broken.

Reba’s owner struggled to remove the collar because it was so tight and when asked how long she was in the crate, bashir stated, “about an hour and a half”.

Reba, blue in the mouth and gasping for air did stand up and attempt to walk, but could not see as her eyes were still rolled all the way back. She was rushed to the where she unfortunately passed away despite all attempts to help her to breathe.

When Reba’s owner demanded the video footage of the grooming session from Bashir, he refused. Police went in to speak to Bashir, and all he showed them was a small piece of footage from a cell phone of Reba on the grooming table.

This is still a fluid case with the NYPD, but it is recommended that no one use Fluff and Love groomers. When this groomer was under a previous name which was Fins, Furs and Feathers, a dog named Junior died as a result of being groomed by Bashir.

There is a protest planned Saturday at 11am at Fluff and Love located at 9514 4th ave in Brooklyn, NY.

This post is not meant to embarrass or humiliate anyone! Just to educate

Before … during … after
Too many months in between grooming
I think we all prefer our dogs a bit “ fluffy” but we REALLY need to keep up with a healthy grooming routine

When you bring your dog to be groomed :
First we bathe them ( regular bath, medicated bath/ conditioner / mud bath ) whatever your dog may need

Blow drying not only dries them but lets us see their coat all the way to the skin
We looks for knots , matting , scabs/ skin conditions, parasites growths/lumps

Brushing out Maybe a slicker brush , pin brush , rake , Curry brush & always COMBING!!

Ears cleaned / maybe plucked looking for infection or irritations

Nails!!!! Cut maybe dremmeled! Long nails can lead to soooo many more problems!!

Last but not least the haircut !!
From a basic “ trim” face /feet/belly/butt to a full haircut

We always strive to give the haircut you “want” that doesn’t always equal the haircut your dog needs!!

Knots can be removed if there aren’t too many Matting cannot be removed It is painful & cruel It will lead to dogs not only not trusting me but also not wanting to return for future groomings

Keeping a longer coat is a commitment
I know! Not just from being a groomer of over 40 years but I also own 7 hairy dogs, 3 hairy cats and a guinea pig

Try to create a routine of brushing your dog at least once a week
I sit on the floor with a brush and a comb while watching tv at night and brush out a few pets a night Keeping on top of it before it gets out of control

If anyone would like any help creating a grooming routine PLEASE ask I’d be happy to help!!
