Dog Groomers: write an instant nightmare in 5 words or less

[legionness]

Examples like:

"Don't poodle my doodle"

They demand an appointment today

Didn't bring their rabies papers

Matted to the skin

Owner cries over a shavedown

Never groomed 3 year old

"He only nips a little"

Bites for their nails

 

[novs]

@legionness "leave him long"
meanwhile the poor dog is PELTED.

 

[imagebeastmarkbeast]

@novs I literally told this lady, “if I dematt your dog he will get hurt. I don’t want to hurt your dog.”

And she looked me right in the eye, shrugged and said “just do your best, save his hair”

I shaved him down I don’t care, of course I got the owners consent but for gods sake they don’t care

 

[mariamelody]

@legionness “We like to keep him fluffy” “his name is Milo” and simply any owner who says their dog is a “Sheepadoodle”, “huskydoodle”, or “newfiedoodle”

 

[jay2242]

@mariamelody And any owner that adds purebred in front of any doodles and poos.

 

[jay1969]

@jay2242 Purebred mutt… lol

 

[jay2242]

@jay1969 Yup and they brag about it "I have a purebred goldendoodle he cost me 5k so I hope you know what your doing"

 

[miralha]

@mariamelody we see a great dane doodle

 

[mariamelody]

@miralha That’s just.... I wanna slap the person who created that

 

[legionness]

@miralha A groodledoodle LMAO or a groodle daneadoodle

 

[wanderedhome]

@miralha I've met a "woodle" wolf hybrid doodle.

 

[miralha]

@wanderedhome I gasped out loud, that's my sleep paralysis demon we see a "woodle" too but it's a wheaten/poodle which is almost as demonic. What did it look like?

 

[wanderedhome]

@miralha Wolfy eyes but definitely a doodle coat. It did not end up coming to our salon, and I was glad.

 

[imagebeastmarkbeast]

@mariamelody When I took my pup in for her first groom, my groomer looked over and goes “oh thank god, she’s not a doodle”

 

[enia08]

@imagebeastmarkbeast Ours too. We have a 70 pound airedale and our groomer will always work her in because she’s an airedale. Lol

 

[dadon]

@enia08 Do you do the standard Airedale cut? Every summer my mom takes her boy (turned 15 in April!) to the groomers and they just shave him but leave the goatee.

 

[enia08]

@dadon We have her leave the goat and eyebrows. She takes the body shorter than the legs. Sometimes in the summer we will have her go shorter on the legs which we fondly refer to as “skinny jeans”.

 

[dadon]

@enia08 Skinny jeans, I love it!

 

[jess1980]

@mariamelody I get so many bernadoodles here it’s insane…

 

[enia08]

@jess1980 I do not understand that breed combo. People will doodle anything these days.
