Let’s talk double coated breeds for a minute… it’s getting hot! If they still have their undercoat then air cannot flow through their guard hair (the pretty top layer) and get to their skin.

This will easily cause heatstroke, yeast, lethargy, dehydration. Did you know that at temperatures above 89 degrees your dog is at risk of heatstroke??? If they have an undercoat the risk is much higher & much more dangerous.

Please see your groomer to have undercoat removed before the extreme temperatures hit. This is NOT done by shaving your pup. This is accomplished by actually removing 95% of your pups undercoat.

Examples of Breeds that have double coats are:
Golden Retrievers
Great Pyrenees
Australian Shepherd/Aussies
German Shepherd
Husky
Labrador Retriever
Pomeranian
Alaskan Malamute
Newfoundland
Bernese Mountain Dog
Chow
Akita
Shetland Sheepdog/Sheltie
Samoyed
Corgi
St. Bernard
Border Collies
German Spitz

I did NOT write this. Another groomer did BUT this should be shared with all groomers, veterinarians, small business owners and especially pet parents!

Memoirs of a mobile dog groomer in New York City.

I feel like I spend more time then I care to admit, writing difficult text messages and emails. I feel that breaking up with old flames was easier then letting a client go. Some subjects can be on auto script, so I can take the emotions on my end out of it. Copy, paste, and send. don’t even open the response when comes in, don’t do it just let it go. Jesus it sounds awful reading that after I wrote it. What am I? Some kind of monster, with no more compassion for difficult human clients in difficult situations beyond my control ? No. I can’t be the only one.

Ugh the ones that are not as easy to have pre written are the ones that sometimes take me an entire day to write. I’ll sit at my desk with a glass of wine. Writing responses and deleting and confiding in Colleagues, and rewriting and pouring more wine. I can’t be as horrible as I think I am, I wouldn’t be putting so much energy into this if I didn’t care.

Alright final draft. Jesus my grammar is terrible. Why didn’t i put my effort into school. Time to get adult to proof read this so I don’t look like the GED having small business owner that I am. Alright, send. That’s all I have to do is hit send. I’m going to reread one more time. I hang on every word rethinking what I’ve written. Is this too much? Is this hurtful ? Is she going to attack me ? My business ? Is she going to go on yelp and ruin me? Nope this feels right. I cannot to be her groomer anymore. This isn’t about her. It’s about what’s best for her dog. I can’t care for him in these final years anymore. He needs a vet. This is for the best no matter how angry she gets.

Send.

Jane Doe,
Thank you. I am still off for a few days but I always monitor my emails over the weekends.
I think your expectations versus what is actually possible are not on the same page. I share all of your frustrations and wish I had better solutions. I have broken every personal and company policy to continue to care for John Doe including being bit, Because I never wanted to give up on him. I went to urgent care at the end of my day, and canceled half of my work week because I couldn’t open and close my hand properly after he bit me- and even after that I didn’t want to give up on him. But as you have pointed out yourself he is not tolerating anything anymore. I am getting hurt and anything that I avoid doing that doesn’t look aesthetically pleasing is to avoid John Doe getting hurt. Which makes you unhappy.

When you pay for your grooming services with me, you aren’t paying for the minutes, your paying for the years I have put into continuing my education so I can provide your baby with the safest, best care that can be provided in a grooming setting.

I think at this time all John Doe’s care should be in the hands of a veterinarian. As for groomer referrals I have no one I can refer you to that would be able to handle him outside of a veterinarian’s care.

I am making a very difficult decision for the two of us, and I feel that you understand and will agree that this is for the best for the most important member of your family- John Doe. I am going to cancel John Doe’s grooming appointments going forward and I will do some research to find the best veterinarian groomer, or veterinary technician, or veterinarian to help John Doe’s in these more challenging years. I never wanted to give up on him, or you for that matter but I don’t think anyone is going to be happy if we continue down this path.

It has been a pleasure to care for him even when it was challenging, and it’s been a pleasure getting to know you, and always appreciated your trust in me. We will find the best person to take over his care.

Thank you for your trust in me,
Laura Jayne

She responded. I can’t bring myself to look at it till tomorrow. Johnny Doe I never wished to have to give up on you, but you deserve more then I can give. I know you hate the vet. But they will able to give you the best care in these harder years. I’ll never forget you. *Pours more wine
No i don’t play with puppies all day, sometimes I wish I did. There’s a lot Of people-ing in this line of work. Some of its good. Some of its hard. I’ve said this a thousand times but I feel like it means more now then it ever did. We don’t choose to be dog groomers. This line of work chooses you. Once it has, its in your blood for life. I wish people realized how much of our hearts goes into everything we do. Even when we have to let a client go.
