Tulsa pet owners, I know most of you have already watched the news report, seen the terrible posts, and read through all the various comments about Doggy Doodles and the groomer facing charges for his actions. I want you to know the monsters like that that sneak into our industry are not the norm, we're not monsters. I for one can promise your baby is safe with me. If you're a client of Doggy Doodles and you need services I am available. I work in your home, you can ask me all the questions you want. I have clients that have trusted me for years. I can't take on all your dogs because I've moved to cats, but I can help you in the interim. I can give you recommendations to groomers I trust with my life and my pets.
Groomers, now is the time to show you not the same, reassure the clients who will be scared, untrusting, and unwilling to schedule. Pet owners if you have a groomer you trust implicitly SHARE their info and why you love them. Give the tons of clients who will assuredly be seeking new groomers the support they need.
If the people who stood around and chose inaction see this, you're trash! You deserve to lose your career, you're not a groomer. I hope your names are found, I hope the owners of that shop face charges, I hope anyone involved never has a restful sleep or happy day again.
Atlas owners, I'm so f**king sorry this happened, I'm sorry your baby wasn't safe. I'm sorry monsters exist everywhere. I cried for your baby, I'm enraged for your baby, and I'm full of sorrow for the hurt this will follow to other families, other pets, and other groomers who love and care for the pets in our lives.
