the Price of Dog Grooming in Someone's Home

The $45 fee included bathing and clipping my mother-in-law's 2 year old lhasa apso. It also included the toenails being painted the color of your choice.

I decided to have my mother-in-law's lhasa apso groomed as a mother's day present to her, so I "dognapped" the little ball of fluff while my mother-in-law was at work. I at first was going to stick around and watch, but as there were 2 other groomings ahead of us, I decided to run some errands while I waited. When I returned they were just starting on Lacie and she seemed to have no objections to being fussed over. Although I knew my mother-in-law would probably take it out, I did have the groomer put a cute little bow on Lacie's head as well.

Call ahead to see if you need an appointment or not. Even if you have already set up an appointment, call to see if they're running on schedule. If your pet has lots of tangles or snarls in their fur, you should mention this as well. Sometimes it may be easier on everyone (especially the pet) to get a shorter cut, rather than teasing the knots out.
