Was called today, 2 days after speaking with the owner, that they needed to cancel my puppy's first ever grooming appointment. I originally relayed to the owner that I was having my puppy professionally trained in Schutzhund, which is VERY similar to the training for police canine dogs. The owner told me originally that it wasn't going to be a problem. He just called me to tell me that he spoke with his "groomer" and that she claimed that my puppy was being trained to be "vicious", which couldn't be further from the truth. There are 3 tenets of training that pertain to Schutzhund Training, those are: tracking, obedience, and protection. The dog is trained to protect ON COMMAND by their handler only. His "groomer" also threatened to call off work the day I had her scheduled to come in if I was to show up with my puppy. This is definitely not a place to take ANY dog to, especially when a groomer is so ignorant of training a dog and when both parties, groomer and owner, make decisions out of fear. Fear of a PUPPY, and fear of being strong-armed by an employee.
