Clip Joint

My dog is scared to go there and she goes bouncing into the vet’s office for a shot. Something is not right.

&%#* THIS PLACE!
Be prepared for a story…
I took my adorable, little, sweet, never agressive bichon frise there for almost a year. Anyone who has a dog knows how hard it is to find a good groomer who knows how to cut hair, and take care of an animal you’ve substituted as your child.
Everytime I came to pick him up, he would BOLT out of there… literally pulling me towards the door while I tried to pay! After a few days, I would ALWAYS find something wrong with him; dried blood from them pulling his ear hair, a bumpy area around his belly skin, unclipped nails, uneven shaving around his body. I was CONVINCED it was just my dog and he was sensitive to grooming.
The last time my sister and I were waiting to pick him up, we admired the groomers brushing one of their client coats through the open door in the store. After a few tough knots, the dog Unilocaled and the groomer handled it by SMACKING IT WITH A BRUSH!!! The groomer quickly came over and closed the door after hearing my sister gasped LOUDLY out of shock. We got out of their quick style and went home to inspect my dog for any signs of abuse. My mom noticed that the hair between his paws were not shaven (even though it was a specific instruction) …conversation to follow…
Mom: This is very uncomfortable for him. He keeps bitting between his paws.
Ho Bag: Why didn’t you say anything when you picked him up?
Mom: I’ve been coming here for quite some time and didn’t think this would have been and oversight.
Ho Bag: I am sorry but there is nothing I can do.
Mom: Well, I think that is a bit unfair. Is there any way I can get a refund then?
Ho Bag: Which one is your dog again?
Mom: The bichon frise. My daughter picked him up earlier today… his name is *****
Ho Bag: You know what? Forget it. Don’t bother ever bringing him back here.
Mom: WTF? Why?
Ho Bag: We HATE ****. We hate him. Never bring him back.
Mom: What? Why? What did he do?
Ho Bag: We all hate him.
Mom: **** is the sweetest dog in the world. He is a good boy. Maybe he doesnt respond well to abuse! Did you think about that?! We are never going to come back there again!
Ho Bag: Good!
Needless to say, it took a few days for us to get over the shock and anger we had against this place. After plotting the demise of this shop and its employees, we narrowed it down to calling «7 on Your Side» and Unilocal.Since I know anyone who’s anyone goes on this site, it would be more productive to let people know about this place on Unilocal.
To sum it all up: DONT EVER COME HERE! THEY ARE COLD HEARTLESS *%@&#! taking advantage of patrons who assume people could not be this cruel, harsh, or insensitive to an animal that isn’t even theirs!
I HATE THIS PLACE!!!
***Go to K9 Clippers in Moraga in the Rheem Valley Shopping Center. They are all FANTASTIC! It may take you months to get an appointment but it is worth it! My dog has never been happier, cuter, and more excited to see his groomer.
