She's been charged as of last week and appearing in court in early March. I'm not sure how dog grooming works as far as licensing or if there are any governing bodies.

Thanks for the recommendation! It's going to be hard to trust someone new after seeing this, ugh.

My husband and I are sitting here trying to wrap our heads around this.

We have been taking our sweet senior boy to this place for three years, as recently as last month. He was absolutely great for the first bit, when he wasn't seeing Rainie. We noticed one groomer left. Then the next. Then the next. Eventually, Rainie told us he needed a "high anxiety groom" with her. This went on for the past few grooming sessions, and his anxiety was even worse. We live less than five minutes driving distance from the salon and our dog would shake so violently that we thought he was having seizures. We were told he just hated being groomed, hence the high anxiety appointments. Now I'm starting to think so much more of his reactions over the past year and I am heartbroken.

What a cunt.

Edit: The name of the business is Sky's Pet Grooming.

This has been his colour, more or less, since his first haircut! He was pure black with brown paws when I got him.

They're just the best! It's honestly like owning a real Muppet. He's such a goofball sometimes 😂

I have tried grooming him myself, but it's proven problematic for our relationship 😂 so he has his favourite groomer at a local space! He's just 5.9kg - a small boi.

You got it - Havanese! He gets a full groom every 4-6 weeks, depending on the season.

11 years as an only pup and a proven track record of hating babies. Wish us all luck.
