I had two very sweet owners come in today. They were getting rabies to take this sweet boy to the groomers. Dad has been out of work due to health reasons and has not had the money to get this sweet boy groomed. Me being me I asked them if they wanted him shaved today since we are cheaper then a groomer. So it would save them some money. Today I gave this sweet boy a shave down and gave him a fresh new start. I stated we were aggressive and needed to be drugged I told them I’d do what I could today and we’ll go from there. I was able to do this sweet boy in an hour in a half. Owners recommend a muzzle because we growl snarl and we show teeth so they muzzled just as a precaution. Let me tell you THIS BOY did absolutely amazing for his groom. He fought a little with his legs especially the front but most dogs hate their front paws done. He started showing some attitude while doing his head which I expected but he wasn’t to bad. We did take the muzzle off and gave him a few breaks and we were able to leave the muzzle off for the remainder of the shave down including toe nails. He was such a good boy and I’m so proud of him.

Again this was a health and comfort groom, not a pretty groom. Owners didn’t care how he looked only that the Matt’s were gone. This groom took about an hour to an hour in a half so by 3/4 of the way done he had had enough. So I finished what I could. I told the owners depending on how he was depends on how good he looked and they didn’t care they just wanted him to feel better. The man concern was getting the Matt’s off and that was it.

He wouldn’t let me get good pictures but I home some before and after. After we were done and went back to the owners he felt soo much better and was bouncing around and just soooo much happier❤️❤️❤️

My fiancee cat has auto immune. She was chewing and we had to clean all the spots where she had sores. So she got a lion hair cut so we could find all the spots and clean them❤️ she was not happy about loosing her hair

I haven’t been able to groom for awhile due to me no longer working at my old vet clinic. My new clinic does not offer grooming. However; I was able to groom my neighbors dog a few days ago. The previous owner took great care of him. He’s about two years old. Unfortunately the previous owner owner stopped taking care of him and was completely matted from head to his paws. My neighbor knew I worked at a vet and was a groomer so she asked me to groom him and I was so happy to help this baby. The reason I became a groomer was to help animals in need. Towards the end of the groom he just wasn’t having it anymore it took roughly an hour in a half to completely do this groom and he was just over it and the matting was removed I was ABSOLUTELY NOT going to stress him out to make him look pretty this was only a health and compassion groom this was not make my dog look pretty. I did what he allowed me to do. I wish I could have made him more presentable but he was 100% over it.

Meet Enzo. He’s a two year old mix breed he is such a sweetheart and will have a great life moving forward❤️❤️ so glad I was able to make him feel better. Afterwords he was a completely different dog

Hello I’m Luna, nice to meet you. I don’t like my picture taken but I got a lion cut today. Than I got a treat after because I was so good.This mean lady shaved me bald except my legs feet face an tail, she tried doing my sanitary area so I bit her with no warning but after we were friends but I let her know if she tried drying me I would bite her again but I’m glad I get to go home to my favorite humans now. That is all

As a groomer we can only do what the fur babes allow. Unfortunately today I had a long hair chihuahua who I was excited to groom. Unfortunately even on some medications to calm her down I was still unable to finish grooming her and as sad as I am to not be able to send her home done and pampered I will never stress out a dog just so they can be groomed. We tried doing many breaks and unfortunately it just wasn’t happening today but I’ll always choose a dogs well being over a hair cut. Because I am a new groomer I did recommend to the O to try somewhere else with a more seasoned groomer who has more experience with high anxiety dogs who’s medication does not work and also gave the option for complete sedation because sometimes they just need to be completely sedated. But I wish this client luck on trying to find a groomer who will be willing to attempt to groom her. This is the first groom I’ve not been able to complete(I have done pets with anxiety before) unfortunately hers is just to bad and she was just to stressed and that’s not what a groomer wants 😞
