    Is a #10 shave for convenience ok?

    @dtrpogod I live in hot weather and do 10 shaves all week long lol from chow chows to poodles , everyone's naked . It's so boring but at least the dogs stay cool and clean

    Dog poop

    @coolguy123 I'd get a doggy gate and confine him to an area personally . Weims are anxious dogs on a calm day, so I wouldn't be shocked if he was working himself into a poo , especially if he tends to pace a lot . I'd definitely get him neutered for all the reasons, but with this situation...

    Severe matting

    @flynn For her sake, shave her . There's no point in torturing her with brushing to shave a quarter inch of hair . It'll grow back Some groomers would be willing to help. Tell them you don't care what it looks like , they don't need to do a full groom you just want the matting shaved off . Most...

    Time to leave?

    @lovey23 I worked for a vet that used me for business and it was shiiiit I'd leave We don't have rabies where I am so requesting all the vaccines is ridiculous. The only dogs I'll groom there are the ones that need sedation and that's a 300- 400 bill for them

    My neighbours don’t treat their dog well, what can I do?

    @andyb7777777 Op already said they aren't going to report bc they aren't breaking the law . If you're mad, direct it at lawmakers , not Animal Control or shelter workers. We're the ones doing the hard stuff

    My neighbours don’t treat their dog well, what can I do?

    @swiderskial People make a huge fuss and scream for justice and then don't come through in the end . The public demanded we take these 2 outdoor dogs, videos being posted daily about how the owner is irresponsible. The dogs were healthy and social but their owner was a nut bag. Finally, after...

    My neighbours don’t treat their dog well, what can I do?

    @andyb7777777 Again I said it isn't ideal but the US laws are what they are and I don't make them. Animal Control isn't going to take a dog bc it's lonely . Making a noise complaint is probably her best bet I have tons of Animals and foster about 40 a year , I work at a shelter . I'm just...

    What to do after dog grooming?

    @trumpeter2 I started grooming at 18, then did internships with animals in a few different states, volunteered at zoos , started working at a dog boarding place , worked at a vet clinic, worked at an animals shelter - became a vet tech and at 37 opened my own grooming salon . I had to groom...

    My neighbours don’t treat their dog well, what can I do?

    @flowerinthesky He's in a yard with shelter and toys and food . I don't keep my dogs outside but a lot of people do and the ones I've met are fine Edit : I agree it's not ideal and needs more mental stimulation. Shelter dogs and dogs confiscated from animal control get way way less room than...

    My neighbours don’t treat their dog well, what can I do?

    @flowerinthesky I'm just realistic after working in the shelter and dealing with animal control for so long. I know it's different in areas whose shelters aren't overwhelmed, but many are in the US . Animal Control in my area wouldn't do anything about a dog like this unless there's severe...

    My neighbours don’t treat their dog well, what can I do?

    @devandt He sounds fine to me . Everyone's idea of what is best is different, but up until more recently, dogs were mostly outdoors. He is fed, sheltered, and has toys , he's got it better than some dogs . It's not against the law to keep your dogs in the yard . Of he's morbidly obese, the...

    Shampoo suggestions

    @yourking I like griminator ... the trick to keeping the scent lasting is to fully blowdry them afterwards

    Would it be bad to switch groomers to save a little money?

    @normp Its your dog, do whatever you want . It's no one's business

    My neighbours don’t treat their dog well, what can I do?

    @fatalfantasy No kill shelters can still euthanize 10% of their intakes and still be considered no kill . They can also transfer animals to shelters who aren't no kill and still be able to keep their status . Most shelter dogs live in cages and are still alone a whole lot . I personally...
