It’s funny how some grooming salons promote “cage free” like it’s some sort of flex. Ok I don’t agree with having a line up of dogs in cages but we have some dogs roaming and some dogs that prefer the safety of a roomy crate . I’m not having a young dog jump on an old, timid or disabled dog and hurt them. Also clients don’t appreciate picking up their dogs when they’ve been playing or their ears tugged on. Often I’ll let the dog play before the groom if they are so inclined but after that I prefer them to stay clean (at least until they walk out my gate) lol. Some dogs just like their spot on the pink furry chair. That’s always a favourite. Also some dogs want to p*e on everything and I can’t be running around cleaning p*e all day and it’s unhygienic . That’s the reality vs the fantasy. You just do whatever is best for the dog and that doesn’t always mean letting them run around and sometimes it’s fine. Common sense anyone? Anyway that’s my little rant for the day lol
