Question by doza1621: Problems with Petsmart grooming?
We recently took our puppy to get groomed at Petsmart. When we went to pick her up, the groomer came out and said she wasn’t able to clip her nails. She said that she was squirming all over the place and was scared of it, so she just “couldn’t do it.” After about 20 minutes of me asking her why she couldn’t just get someone to help her hold our puppy and asking what they do when this happens (because surely this isn’t the first time it has happened with another dog), she finally called the manager. The manager took our puppy, tried to clip her nails and again said that she just couldn’t do it. She said she didn’t want to overly stress our puppy and that she was scared of getting bitten if our puppy got too upset.

This is the SECOND time that Petsmart “hasn’t been able to clip her nails.” We’re able to do it at home, and we’ve taken our puppy to other groomers, who have never had a problem. So what’s the deal?? Has anyone else had problems at Petsmart grooming?
Jasmine–to answer your question, we’ve taken our puppy to different groomers because we’re trying to find the best one. I actually live in a relatively small town, so our selection of groomers is limited. The first groomer we took our puppy to was fine, but they didn’t seem very personal, so we thought maybe Petsmart would be better.

And yes, we usually groom our puppy on our own. We’ll bathe her, clip her nails and clean her ears. But every once in a while, it’s good to get her professionally groomed.

We’ll keep looking and hopefully we’ll find a groomer we really like. We’re definitely not going back to Petsmart!

petsmart employes are not trained to groom your puppy.
All employees you find in places like petsmart and petco are simply teenagers who are looking for a job and like animals.
Other private owned stores have workers who are experienced and specify on a certain animal. Petco and petsmart employees are expected to take care of animals such as fish all the way to rabbits.
