Clipping a Groomer

[@jennross6466]

She whipped out her credit card and was ready to pay, they took cash only. She went home with her dogs and simply changed her mind about how much the bill was.

[@jennamont6618]

ill bet the party cost well over the price for the groom. Priorities!

[@valerievilla5862]

I’ve worked w grooming services and ain’t no way we charged 509 plus for two dogs , honestly that is grossly over priced and I do believe they mis told the customer. At most the price for two dogs w matting would be 350

[@r1verman]

I've done dog grooming professionally and have worked for a dog groomer. None of our clients would ever want to pay this amount. That being said...... Golden Doodles are one of the most intensive grooms a groomer will ever perform. They are almost always matted and often are not cooperative during the groom. Also, a scissor cut, although a beautiful look, is extremely labor intensive. Most pet owners are happy with just a clipper cut and those can take hours on a Doodle. I can understand why the defendant was shocked at the bill, but the salon definitely put an extraordinary amount of work grooming her dogs. It's shady that the defendant didn't even pay anything.

[@marleonetti7]

i think a more fair verdict would have been to order the defendant to pay the average rate for the service since the plaintiffs did not make it clear what the cost would be and they allowed the defendant to assume that they would charge her around 130 per dog .

[@kellismith4329]

If she was concerned she was overcharged, why didn’t she pay the amount she claims to have agreed to?

[@jennross6466]

It's shady that the groomer's pamphlet is an older one. I bet you they keep it like this to bamboozle clients. The prices for services are different in their pamphlet than what they verbally or through texts state. Change the discrepancy, make an updated brochure.

[@marleonetti7]

@@kellismith4329 most likely the reason she did not pay was that the plaintiffs were not gonna accept a payment that was lower than what they were asking once the job was finished . we would all be rich if we could get away with not telling people what we were gonna charge them and then hit them with a huge bill even though we knew the customer thought the price would be much lower . i think there should have been a lesson in good business that the judge could have taught the plaintiffs but now they will continue over charging unsuspecting people who they know think the charge will be lower , to me the plaintiffs are shady .

[@ArtByBritania]

I used to groom cats and Golden Doodles sound alot like Persian cats. Most people dont know how much maintenance these particular kinds of pets are before investing. Theyre very beautiful when groomed consistently, but as soon as the owner does not keep up with the fur management, Persians get matted quick. It took me nearly 4 hours to groom one of these cats because it was elderly (so very brush sensitive), and the owners did not want it to have the hair cut. Needless to say, we charged alot more, but the owners were more than happy to pay because they knew it was necessary.

[@AkeebaMaze]

I have a standard poodle with medium hair like these doodles. The groomer’s prices are fair for a professional cut, hand scissoring. If you’re charged significantly less than that, your groomer is probably clipping the dog with a razor. Which is totally fine, if you’re okay with that look. 90% of poodles and doodles are probably done with a razor, and clipped short to remove the mats. Combing out those mats takes forever. Drying a poodle or doodle takes at least an hour, especially if you’re trying to get the hair bone straight. The benefit of getting the hair super straight is that it will look so much nicer, and the cut will last longer. My standard poodle costs a bit under $250. He normally takes from 9 AM to 2 PM. If you have your poodle or doodle groomed by a high level poodle professional who does scissoring, you can tell the difference than getting your dog groomed by someone who doesn’t specialize in poodles.

Groomer here as well. At first I thought the bill was high, but when I realized they were scissor cut, I understood the price. Scissoring is very labor intensive. This groomer did a beautiful job. The defendant wanted her dogs to look beautiful for the party and they did. It bothers me that she didn't at least pay what she claimed she was quoted.

[@TheCreoleSon89]

So if you get started and realize it will cost more, do you contact the customer immediately? I don’t have a dog and I would NEVER spend this much on a grooming tbh but I’m very curious on the process. It seemed so sketchy in this case. I hate to compare it to car work (because dogs are so much more than an object and shouldn’t be compared at all) but if I go to get my car worked on, I need paperwork for whatever you are quoting me on before you touch my car. You mentioned additional charges and I would need that in writing as well. On toilet paper or written in crayon just as long as I get it on video lol 😂

[@TheAray6]

@@TheCreoleSon89 I was thinking the same thing. Because the mechanic will give you quote but sometimes they get in there and realize x, y, and z also needs fixing. So they usually will call you and ask you if you want the additional work done and how much extra it will cost, even though they are some scam artist. That’s a topic for another day. 😂

I have 2 golden doodles. I agree with this. They get very matted.

[@OfficiallyLydiasLife]

Huh? I have a Large goldendoodle & a standard poodle.. It's only 65 dollars pure dog, and that's the package 1 up from a basic groom that includes extras... Granted both of my dogs are very well-behaved & brushed regularly so they're never matted.. If the dogs where extremely matted I can understand how it would cost that much pur dog. Most groomers have to shave matted dogs and so many ppl get Poodles or doodle mutts and don't spend the time to research how to properly brush them and then do it regularly. It's ridiculous! But the grooming Salon should have a form they have to sign then it should say if the dogs are matted it's $15 pure 15 minutes of dematting extra. I've never had a groomer not have my initial that even tho my dogs aren't ever matted so I never have to pay it. But I've never spent more than 100 on each dog..

[@OfficiallyLydiasLife]

​@Haleighmaineee This is failure on your part... U have to brush them DAILY. And if u can't do that, u simply should shave them short to prevent matting or/and not have gotten a HIGH MAINTENANCE dog... I have a goldendoodle mutt & a standard poodle. Never once are my dogs matted, they get regular grooms every 6 weeks each as well as daily brushing.. This is on you neglecting that, it's preventable... They need regular brushing as well as gone through with a comb to get their underfur.... Matting is extremely painful for them, it can cause skin rashes, infections, it can even cut off the circulation of body parts such as the tail. IF you can't brush them regularly, u shouldn't have chosen high maintenance dogs.. Hell, I have Physical and medical disabilities & I still make sure my dogs aren't matted and get brushed regularly... If u can't do the bare minimum u should be keeping their fur short & still bringing them to a groomer just for brushing twice a week if your unwilling to brush them. Also I've never spent more than 100 pure dog, but again, I never have to pay dematting fees bc they're never matted & also highly trained to behave at the groomers. This comment shows your Negligence bc matted dogs is PREVENTABLE.

yes she should pay , but she should not have to pay that high of a service charge since the plaintiffs did not make it clear what the total cost for all the services would be and they just let the defendant assume she was gonna pay around 130 per dog . judge should have done rough justice and ordered the defendant to pay what the average charge would be for those services instead of the overpriced charges the plaintiffs were demanding .

Ya'll, Golden Doodles are a nightmare with their coat. Dematting is almost a guarantee with these dogs. I don't doubt it cost that. People don't always take care of these dogs very well. There is an amazing YT channel called Girl with the Dogs. Learn a lot about dog grooming.

If you don’t wanna pay so much to have your dogs groomed so nicely brush them out every now and then. It can actually be painful for some dogs to be dematted so keep that in mind too.

[@Melie_Mel]

Dog groomer here. I can say most of the time when a doddle comes the de matting process is long. 100 dollar job would have been a shave down. I usually charge about 120 per doddle. If there are mats and knots there is a upcharge. That's why the groomer was keeping communication through text. Smaller doodles around 75. And the teeth brushing is what it is. We can do the teeth brushing. But that's something that needs to be done at home. It's like us. We brush our teeth daily. I am gonna take a wild guess and say these dogs took about 8 hours. We recommend monthly appointments for doodles to keep the coat in good condition. Please research the breed before you buy doodles. They are alot for upkeep about the same as a standard poodle but the fur is Wavy which can't unfortunately knot and mat easily. And if you bring them every 4 weeks it's easier in the dog and the groomer. That groomer could have easily said that the dog was too matted and needed a shave down.

[@carriegarcia4173]

Dogs with long coats definitely cost more to get groomed. A groomer can not tell you by looking at the dog how long it will take to get the matted hair brushed out. That's crap is time consuming. Every bit of evidence on the plaintiffs side backs up their story. They never quoted anything below 200 per dog. The defendant is lying about 130 per dog. Nothing she had verified that. On top of that she didn't complain when she went to pay but the system. Was down. There more she thought about it she just didn't want to pay it.

I'm a licensed CVT (vet tech). Brushing a dog's teeth ONCE every few months is a waste of money. Dogs have mineral-rich saliva. It accumulates, bit by bit, every time a dog produces saliva. If it's not brushed frequently enough, it will harden like CEMENT. Brushing your dog's teeth, consistently, at least 3 TIMES a WEEK will save you thousands in dental cleaning fees later on. Start brushing when they're pups!

That's day one, you don't clip at all until day two. This makes the clipper a 100% reward (sight of it and the sound of it). On day two same approach, food reward then "touch" the nail with the clipper while giving it food. Eventually you clip. Cesar Milan's show since 2005 taught me this.

Doug Llewelyn had an extra cup of coffee before taping this segment.

I’ve heard several times before that Golden Doodles can sometimes take a little more work because of the different hair textures bred. I have a standard poodle and before I really learned how to care for his hair, I used to get extra charges.

For all those who are saying "why didn't she at least pay the amount she THOUGHT it was" lets say she offered that... (which I completely belive she didn't - it sounds like she was trying to ghost them) if the plaintiff ACCEPTS the payment - it then makes it VERY difficult for them when coming to court to get the rest. It makes it look like they accepted the payment IN FULL. (there are several cases on this show where someone gets sent a check - and they DON"T CASH IT - because its not the amount they agreed to be paid) If you are in this situation you have to be VERY CLEAR that this is ONLY PARTIAL payment - and get the other party to sign to that - or get it recorded. (for those who are thinking - yeah but in all the 'rent' cases you see all kinds of partial payments etc. - yes, but they also have a SIGNED CONTRACT saying the person is liable for all the rest - and the same goes for all the car cases which are financed with payments etc)

Surely there's something we can call it other than "scissoring" the dog 😂

If the defendant ever comes into unlimited income I bet you she’ll take her dogs back to that place

This is why I have feral cats. You give them a little food and they're happy.

Golden Doodles have so much curl to comb out and cut and care for when groomed. And it took time. She did not like the extra she had to pay for two of them, that is why she was refusing to pay.

[@TooLooze]

I just took my 70lb Standard Poodle for grooming, ear plucking and claw grinding. It costs $100 USD; on Tuesdays, there is a 10% senior discount. For all the extras the plaintiff wanted, $250 doesn't seem unreasonable.

Raising dogs are expensive.

Cleaning is cleaning...

[@barbaracl6308]

Wow, I’ve never paid more than $80 for my golden doodle. That’s insane

[@humaneleaguelancPA]

For a scissor cut?
