This is a well-written post. We love dogs but certain precautions need to be taken with special needs cases. We’ve had a few cases recently where the owner has not cautioned us with aggressive behavior and when we have addressed the behavior with the owner at pick-up, they acknowledge that they’ve been told about it before from a previous groomer. This is unacceptable and an unnecessary risk to us when we could have avoided risk by being better prepared. Muzzles are a great tool and are not dangerous when used correctly by a professional.

Things to do if you have an aggressive dog who needs to go to a groomer.
1. DONT be upset with your groomer because of your dogs behavior. When a groomer turns your dog away it has nothing to do with their skill level and everything to do with safety.
2. Hire a trainer! Your dog is a pet and should be able to go to the vet, say hello to strangers, and go to the groomers with no aggression. This is a normal part of a pets life and your pet should be able to communicate their feelings g appropriately. Biting is unacceptable.
3. Take frequent visits to the groomers just to say hi and get pets and treats. This will help build a positive relationship between the space and groomer and your dog.
4. Make sure your dog is socialized. Sit in a park and treat good behavior. Go to Home Depot’s and have strangers give your dog treats.
5. Always warn your groomer of possible biting hazard. A bite could end their career, cause PTSD and may result in your dog being handed over to authorities.
6. Understand that your dogs behavior is NOT normal and the price of your groom will reflect the extra work and risk involved.
7. There will most likely be unfinished grooming tasks. Understand that your dog has to build up to a completely finished groom and you will still be paying for their time.

Work with your dog, set them up for success and keep realistic expectations.
