Matted & Neglected Coats
From September 27th, all matted & neglected coats will be charged a minimum of $150 for single coated dogs and $250 for double coated dogs. This price increases with the size of the dog and the difficulty of the groom.
The extra time and care needed to ensure a safe groom, cost to replace/ fix/ sharpen our blades and scissors, cleanup costs and time taken to clean and to cover the damage to our minds and bodies is covered in this price.
Holistic Pets does not take lightly to neglected dogs as they are damaging to our own emotions and bodies. Groomers have emotions too and causing pain to an animal to relieve them of neglect causes many psychological problems such as stress and depression.
Holding onto a scared dog, breathing their dead skin and bacteria and being attacked by scared dogs in pain causes lasting effects on our bodies such as carpel tunnel and scars. These dogs urinate/ defecate because their coat does not allow them to normally and from their fear.
Grooming neglected dogs causes a lasting stress on the salon and groomers which affects all other dogs on that day. Having painful, matted hair pulled and cut off their bodies is traumatising for the dogs. They will never fully heal from the experience.
If you do not think regular grooming is necessary, please imagine how the treatment of these animals would be handled if done to a child. It would be considered abuse and the parents would be treated accordingly for their crime. The child would suffer immensely from the neglect.
If you are offended by our beliefs, then maybe you have a guilt you do not wish to admit to. There is never an excuse for neglect.
