Molly the 15 year old Cockapoo came in for her grooming appointment. At her age, grooming requires extra patience, understanding, and care. Not all dogs enjoy being groomed, especially senior dogs. They may have aches, pains, vision loss, hearing loss, or simply less tolerance for the grooming process than they had when they were younger.
Our job is to work with the dog, not against them. We pay attention to their body language and comfort level throughout the groom. Sometimes that means taking things slower, giving breaks, or adjusting our approach. Molly did her best today, and we are proud of her.
