Grooming - Expectations .......
Sorry if the question sounds stupid !!!
I was kind of lazy to bath Max last Sat. So I tot I would send him for grooming at the neighbourhood pet shop. It was the 1st time. I dont know if the groomer was bz or wat but she said that Max (at 3 mths plus) is too young for full groomin which would make the fur coarse. Wat do u guys think ? So she suggested a bath , ear cleaning, nail clipping , under body shaving etc
The shaved part under his body was all red after the session . Is it normal ? and max was scratchin like mad .
I also found clumps of fur in the plastic crate I used to ferry Max to the shop ? And when I let Max into the house , the whole house was full of short fur. I had to sweep the living and dining area twice. And wash the crate as well. Is this normal ? Or should she clean Max properly (ie remove all loose fur) b4 returning him to me.
I am not going back 4 sure ........
if not mistaken, i told u that better not to send the puppy for grooming before he finished his last vaccination.
the reddish underpart is due to the allergy ..this happen whn they nvr sterilize or clean the tool properly....
for a groomer, they shld clean and touch up everything before returned the puppy to owner...i dont think that shop is reliable since 1st...they nvr ask if the puppy finished his vaccination laready or not(puppy might get infected if there are dog that with parvo virus(deathly virus)
for a good grooming place, u shld ask if they sterilze their equipment after every grooming session o not. U can request for that .. .
