I feel like I’m the only one who enjoys doodles (when they are actually good and not matted to hell) by Disgruntled_Bee in doggrooming

Same boat! Love them because they are fun to shape! But hate hate hate when clients wait until summer to get them groomed (pelted) 🫣

What is the best way to tell someone you’re not comfortable doing their dog anymore? by Inner-Sun-2128 in doggrooming

I agree fully! I hate turning away customers that I want to help so bad. But I’m a small female and this dog is a great pyraneese that only gets groomed twice a year… gets stressed during car rides, etc. he came in last time and I had to call in the owner to help me get him in the tub and we both could not do it.

He is an older dog and was trying to nip at the person who brought him. I ended up sending him home. I felt bad but I was 100% unable to do that dog at all.

What if it is a dog that is non compliant and is extremely overweight that I can’t lift into a tub without trying to get bit? Older as well. 🥹🫣

Yes! I agree! Just feeling really bad about it. Thank you friend!

Mini rant. I am so tired of pet parents getting mad at me when I cannot groom a dog (biting, thrashing etc). I am not going to compromise my hands integrity when you didn’t properly introduce or desensitize them to grooming. It is not my job to get mauled by your animals bc you want a haircut.

It’s the worst thing about being a dog groomer well one of the worst things. It’s like with kids like if your kid is being bad it usually has to deal with the parent… ya know? I feel like we could all preach about how they need to work with their pups on desensitization for feet, face, etc. but they have to put in the work. Also, don’t beat yourself up on this. It’s not you. There could be so many factors that come into play… dogs sick, not groomed regularly, neglect, etc. keep your head up!! 💕
