Dog has been barred from the groomers......

[craft1948]

Took my westie to the dog groomers today, half an hour later had to go and pick him up as she couldn't cope with him.
He apparently (I didn't know about this) craps all over the place every time he's there, and gets uncontrollably upset and wound up so he's always a struggle to clip. Today was particularly bad as he suddenly developed diarrhoea and sprayed it all over the place........she now won't have him back.
As he's a westie he obviously needs regular grooming but I feel I must explain what he's like to any other groomer who takes him on.......any suggestions please?

would you be able to find someone who comes to your house, craft? I have heard of mobile dog-groomers.

What about the breeder, do they groom their own dogs? Perhaps they could offer some advice.

have you thought of trying a furminator?

Craft, watch the "Dog Whisperer" nat geo wild on sky, Cesar Milan has covered this issue a few times, with amazing results in just a few minutes. He has had this type of troublesome dog calm and settled for the groomer in no time. We use Cesars methods a lot with amazing results, but you really need to study how Cesar works, it all makes so much sense.

My mother has both her dogs sedated before grooming. They are the only 2 dogs that the groomer has been unable to groom in the course of her 30 years of service.
