When grooming you have to be open to every situation, and to have a understanding that dogs have experiences which shape who they are and how they see the world just like humans. This is Bella she is extremely nervous around people and today i had her for her first groom with me she was very nervous of me and didn't want me close to her space she didnt want to hurt me she just didn't like me near her, so for today instead of grooming her i aimed to ease her nerves, using treats and patients gradually she opened up to me even able to take food from my hand this is excellent for her comfort and it can really help to someday have her embrace the groom. a lot of people forget this, but its just as important for a groomer to comfort the dog and not to just groom them you need patience its hard sometimes but that's a part of the job. Bella was a wonderful girl today she made so much progress and im really proud how far we got thank you for coming Bella your always welcome here ❤️
