Abusive Groomer!!!!

[tnmg2008]

How do you let people know about a dog groomer who is very abusive to the pets.......I've have seen first hand....How this groomer is totally out of line when handling these peoples' pets.

I have worked at this hospital in Maryland for quite a while and can't tell you...how terrible this is.......I have talked to the managers and have gotten no where.

some people would gasp at the way these poor animals are treated, not to mention the boarding here is terrible also.

I would never ever leave my animals to board there either..... much less groomed with this particular person. they have 2 groomers one is very nice and never ever does this; in fact that groomer will not even work on the same days because of the abuse.

That groomer will be leaving soon because of the **** that goes on, she is in the process of building her own mobile grooming business and wants nothing more to do with this hospital as well. They are losing good workers because of this one person.

The whole hospital knows about it but continues to let this take place. Even the owner.

So, if you want any information, you can email me personally at ::Edit-No personal information in public, please:: I also have witnesses that will come forth, but beings I live so close to this person and a little nervoous about taking this any further I could really use some input......Please help shut these mean groomers down......

One person who was smart enough and caught her beating one of the dogs on his cell phone and may still have the video....That's another alternative if it still exist.

Thanks for letting me vent...Sorry so long....

I think you and the girl that's getting ready to quit should take some movies of this abuse even if you have to buy a special undercover camera. Then when you "both" have taken movies of the abuse, call the authorities. Please don't just let them continue getting by with this. The little animals need you very much right now. Please save them and any future torture. Please!

That is really sad, I agree with Calgal, those animals need you to take action. Please don't let this abuse continue.

What city, state or country are you in? Check with your local and state government for all business license and permit requirements, depending on your location, the groomer may be required to have a business license, groomers license and/or vocational license. You can make formal complaints to have licensing revoked due to misconduct.

If you are able to get video, you can report animal cruelty to local authorities and contact the local paper or local news channel if authorities are not helpful.

That's just horrible! I agree, you need some footage of what's going on. You can even report her to the police. I know here they take animal abuse claims seriously, and with the backup of video footage, you'd have strong evidence to support your claim.

I need to have this person find the video that she has to go forth, otherwise animal control said I can also has witnesses come forth, but not that many people will come forth. The media will also get wind of this, but the video was taken a little while ago and she needs to find it. How can youlose something like this.......

I know she has been threatened as well if anything happened with this video and guess what, the groomer is still there, knowing a business could be shut down would give me enough reason to dismiss this person.

I will inform you all what takes place but you really have to have a good amount of information in order to go forth. I wish I was in the position to wear an under cover camera, I wouldn't even know how to get one? Does anyone know where you can get one, maybe I could get someone to where while working with her.

I'm glad you talked with Animal Control. Hopefully your friend can find the video.

A lot of digital cameras have a thing to, where you can take video. I know mine, which wasnt at all expensive, can take up to 2 hours of video
