Business ProfileforTina's Loving Care Pet Grooming/Boarding

I boarded my dogs over the weekend and asked **** to groom my lab and bathe both dogs. Come time to pick up my boys, **** informs me that there was an incident with my lab where she had yelled at the dog in the next kennel over and this caused my lab to become fearful of her. Because of this she stated that he was nipping at the brush and was not able to finish grooming him. My lab was very sleepy on the car ride home, and when we got home he was acting very strange - really cagey and anxious. His whole body was tense and his legs were just shaking uncontrollably. Since he was still massively shedding, I went to brush him and he immediately shied away from me and tried biting the brush out of my hand. He has never done this before. He is extremely laid back. He is a stereotypical omega black lab! After examining him closer my husband found that his entire back from neck to tail was cut open and bleeding with large clumps of dried blood and hair. When you touched him in these areas he would yelp and cry like someone had kicked him. The vet confirmed that he was badly torn up, and showed me the worst spots where he was still actively bleeding. To me, his injuries seem consistent with ****** aggressive grooming. It would also explain why he would bite at a brush when he has never done so before. I debated talking this over with **** before I posted the review but decided not to. She had the opportunity to tell me the truth of the matter but chose to lie to my face about it - after years of being customers of hers. I even tipped her on top of it, so for her to not reject it and take it anyway just tells me that this person does not care about your animals. I feel sick to my stomach that someone hurt my dog this way and that h*** never be the same for it. She advertises dog grooming but doesnt know how to brush a dog without turning them into mince meat? Save yourself the grief. Do not take your pets here.
