Grooming will be only one of those questions. Here are some suggestions to help you tick that chore off your list. There is no stronger endorsement than the clients we serve. Ask neighbors, veterinarian, and other pet owners from the pet store or dog park where they take their pet. Ask them questions about scheduling, location, or what it is that they like about a particular service. Check with professional associations such as the Better Business Bureau. More and more people are choosing to search online. Websites can be very informative as to a hours, loca- �������������������������������������������������������������������������� Finally, take a moment to visit any place you are considering for services for your pet. The last thing you want is to walk in with an appointment and realize it is a mistake. Once you are ready to give a groomer an appointment, arrive prepared to answer questions about what you would like to have provided. If you can identify blade numbers to be used, pictures, or techniques used at your previous groomer, it is very helpful for a new groomer to meet your expectations. Plan on making a couple of sessions to make adjustments to your individual preferences. Finally, let your groomer know when they have it right. You will have created a partner in the care of your pet for years to come. Denise Meinhardt owns and operates Denise’s Animal House. Please support our partners — say you saw it in Pet Pages.
