Dropped off my GSD pup yesterday for a grooming. The manager in the grooming department informed me that my dog was aggressive when larger dogs came by. I asked her if he was growling and she said no he was touching the fence as if going towards the dogs as they walked by. She also said that maybe he was playing. She stated that I couldn’t bring him in on weekends anymore for grooming when they were busy. It’s obvious this lady needed far more training. She couldn’t tell the difference from a growl which is aggression and a playful pup. It was pretty pathetic her trying to explain to me that my dog showed aggression. I’ve had GSDs and Rotts in the past and this is the best tempered breed I’ve had and only went here out of convenience because I had just moved into the area and we are still unpacking. Normally I groom my dogs. I purchased my GSD from a breeder in Texas who breeds her GSDs for show and is well know in the industry. First of all, my GSD is an American blood line and anyone who knows anything about larger breeds would tell you that these are the most well tempered of the breed. This lady tried acting like she was some sort of expert, but she doesn’t know anything about dogs, in fact, I was pretty specific to her and had to tell her she was “full of s**t”. That’s pretty blunt but was needed given her ignorance. This petsmart if located on the north side of San Antonio. I would never go back and don’t recommend anyone going. Go to Petco. I’ve never had a problem there. Petsmart needs to do a better job with the people they have run their grooming stores.
