| Following are some tips for picking a good groomer! Look for experience. Groomers who've worked many years with animals are better able to handle special or difficult dogs! Get a recommendation from you vet, family, friends, or neighbors. Start early. Dogs need their first professional grooming after the last puppy shots so they become accustomed to it. Select a shop that is very clean and offers appointments, and pick up the dog as soon as he's ready. Don't leave him sit in a create all day! Check credentials. Is the groomer a graduate of a training program, school or apprenticeship? Do they hold a membership in a trade organisation? Although groomers aren't required yet to be licensed, involvement with a trade group, such as the National Dog Groomers Association of America, indicates professionalism. Watch the groomers work. If a groomer won't allow it, go elsewhere!! Check if the groomer has insurance, if he/she dosn't have one, leave!! Alert the Groomer to health or behavior issues, that could affect the grooming experience. Don't shop for price, shop for experience and high quality service!!!!! |
