🐕Good morning,
I don’t like making these post, but it’s an issue I’m having and I need to address it.
I groom one on one, that means when you bring me your dog, only your dog is In my shop unless they have more dogs in that household. In order to do this, I have to book back to back, when you are late dropping off you are taking time away from your grooming, depending on how late you are I may not have time to do the grooming safely. When you pick up late you are disturbing the next appointment which is not fair to my next client, especially if there on time.
Because this has been such an issue I’ve been trying to approach my clients with kindness and understanding with explaining to them why this is so stressful, and I’ve been met with angry, awful language and belittling. It is so hard for me to approach clients when there is an issue, but this has become a huge stressor for me.
So, I’m asking my clients what do I do?

Thanks,
Danielle

**Wifi/Phone Issue**

This is Danielle's husband. I just drove to town to get cell service to post this..

We lost power and wifi around 4:30pm yesterday. Power came back on 2 hours later but Bell is telling us wifi won't be back up until probably sometime Wednesday. So we have no internet or phone at the moment, but we do have power and she is open for business. Until wifi is back online she can only do cash or e-transfer (before pickup).

If you need to get ahold of her, try her cell it might work if she's standing in the right spot at the right time, or leave a message.

Sorry for the inconvenience!!

Great advice! Our dryers are an important step for us to give your furry friend a beautiful clip!

Why is it important that my dog allow me to blow dry them? Maybe your groomer has told you your dog is scared or Wiley for the dryer. These are reasons why the dryer is an important step in the process and should be mastered by your dog.
1. In order To give an even , not choppy, haircut the hair must be straight. We get the coat straight with the blow dryer.
2. During a deshed the dryer helps push any undercoat out making sure your getting the full service.
3. The drying process it the part of the groom where your groomer can see your dogs skin, therefore able to report any signs of allergies, skin abrasions and more.
4. The high velocity dryer helps loosen any matting your dog has, pushing it from the skin and giving us the ability to give a slightly longer cut in a lot of cases.

Ways we as groomers can help your dog to be more comfortable and calm for drying.
1. We utilize cotton balls and a happy hoodie. A happy hoodie goes over the dogs ears to lighten the sound and provide a comfort with compression.
2. Starting at the back end over a towel on the lower setting will help ease a dog into the process, getting them used to the sound and pressure of the dryer.

Ways you can help your dog at home.
1. Turn the vacuum on and pull out the treats. A high reward treat when the approach the vacumm will train them that the sound is not scary.
2. Baths and blowdryer at home. Simply going through the process with a person they know and trust will build their confidence.
