We are really upset with the service we received.
The first night after coming home, we realized that instead of proper hand stripping, our dog had mostly been clipped. I had specifically asked multiple times that no cutting should be done at all, as our dog’s coat should only be hand stripped. I also clearly mentioned that we did not need deep stripping — just a wash and light stripping.
(And we’ve paid extra specifically for stripping)
Instead, she used clippers, which looks awful on his face and tail (although that part is subjective). She also cut his eyebrows and mustache, which, in my opinion, should not be done at all.
But the worst part came the next day. Our dog was extremely nervous and quiet all day, which is very unusual. When we checked his back more carefully, we discovered the real issue — it had clearly been over-stripped. Even after more than 24 hours, his skin was still bleeding. Half of his back was red, with 4–5 visible bleeding sores.
When I asked for an explanation, I was told these were “tiny” and that they could help. That response is unacceptable. We also have stripping knives at home, and while we are not professional groomers, we are able to strip our dog without causing injuries or bleeding.
I genuinely have no words. We will never come back, and I would not recommend this place to anyone.
