What do I do about this place I took my dog to get groomed, who had shaved a layer of skin off her

What do I do about this place I took my dog to get groomed, who had shaved a layer of skin off her2007-11-25 2:51:16

(Her third time there, and NEVER AGAIN!) I asked them to shave her before I took her away for a 4 day weekend with us. They ended up shaving a layer of skin off her private part. We didn't notice it right away, because we left right after picking her up. By the time we came back it had healed some what, luckly, I always take a first aid kit with us when traveling with the dogs. The day we came back, I called and took her back where this happened. They didn't say they were sorry or anything. They looked at it, said they don't understand how this happened and why the groomer didn't report it. (Duh? Wonder why not?) They even tried to PULL OFF the scab. Poor thing! They said it looked fine and that I don't have to take her to a vet. They tried to give her some "CAT" meds. (for a dog?) to calm her down. This is not the first time this happened. A few months ago they "nicked" my mom's dog a little, it wasn't as bad. I just want to know who to turn them into or/and what I can I do?

Answers:

need less to say I think I'd find another groomer....


press charges and call the aspca that is animal cruelity get the place shut down before it happens to another dog
Hire a lawyer, charge them with indecent practices, and turn them over to the local animal protection agency.
Call the better business bureau. Also you can make a complaint to the towns animal control. They are at least in my town, overseers of all that has to do with animals. Let your vet know about their sloppy care and unwilling nature. Word will get around that they are not competent.
Grooming mishaps seem to be pretty common, unfortunately. Most dogs aren't crazy about being groomed and wiggle around a bit.
