DONT BRING YOUR DOGS HERE
DONT BRING YOUR DOGS HERE. I've been bringing my dog here since he was about 9-12 weeks old to get groomed he is now 2 years and 5 mo. old. My dog was always tended to by a lady named Christine for over a year, never had any problems with her. She would express his anal glands during EACH visit WITHOUT ME HAVING TO MENTION IT. She left that location so my dog has been going to the other groomers there. NO ONE MENTIONED OR EDUCATED ME ON ANAL GLAND EXPRESSION OR THAT I HAD TO SPECIFICALLY ASK FOR IT TO BE DONE. I now learned it is NECESSARY for a maltipoo breed. But apparently the groomers didn't think it was wise to mention it. There was a possible injury/irritation caused towards my dog. He needed medical attention and no one was responsible or respectful enough to call me to tell me he needed medical attention. Lack of care and integrity. When I got home I noticed a prominent red spot and swollen purple spot on my dogs anal area. No one thought it was a good idea to call me so he could get medical attention I had to drive him back to that locations vet hospital to get medical attention. Since it was Sunday his vet was closed. I paid for the grooming and the vet bill because they claimed “it was not caused by the grooming salon” which technically it was since they never continued the services like Christine would. I have been a longtime customer and paid hundreds of dollars in training classes for my pup since he was 12 weeks old, for PetSmart to just be negligent like that. Horrible place taking my business to real professional groomers.
