Smile 1st time going to the groomer!

Wow, I ain't been on here in a while. So I thought I would come by to keep everyone up to date


We went to the groomers and everything went good! The lady needed me to be there with him, she said unlike any other dog she met before, he was stressed out without me he tried jumping off the table and could of hung himself if I wouldnt of been there. He hid his face into my arm the whole time. She bathed him and then brushed his fur out, she got all the mats out of his tail that I been trying to get out. She also gave us a special brush that will pull out the mats easily. Then she trimmed up around the pads of his paws and cut his nails. My mom let me take my camera yay! He was a good boy. He HATED the blow dryer but we think that it was good for him to get over his fear of that. She also cleaned out his ears from that gunk in there. He hated that too. At the end of it, he was a good dog and he got a free bandanna! There was another dog there but star was not likeing it at all! He isnt much for playing with other dogs.

So, instead of taking time uploading the photos, I just added them to my photo album on my profile :

Good job Star. The groomers can be a scary place the first few times!

Hi Starry. Another thing that might help is called the Happy Hoodie. Google it and the website should come up. You might convince your groomer that it's a good idea for all dogs.
