I was picking up some food for my doggie at per smart in Edmonton Alberta 136** **st I stoped by the grooming window to watch the dogs being groomed as I was thinking on taking my dog there! I seen a female Employee violently yanking on a tiny dogs Ear and shaking her finger at him with her other hand saying bad dog your a bad dog as the dog was tea tethered to the table, because the dog was moving about on the table.

The act was very violent and abusive, and went on for about a minute. Terrible terrible and the other groomers tables are all next to each other and no one said a word to her and there were about 5 groomers in a small room. They are all guilty of allowing this to carry on because they didn't bat a eye when this was going on horrific just horrific, the dog was terrified and shaking and urinated on the table in fear of what the Employee did!!

The other Employees are enablers in allowing this to happen. Nasty pet smart.

Most dogs over react for grooming, and groomers must do what they have to do. Think that's bad?

Ever wonder why your vet doesn't allow you to see procedures? Because restraining animals safely is not always pretty. Bunch of pansy pet owners who don't know what its like to actually work on an animal for grooming/vet. Get real.

You bring the animal to someone else for grooming because Fifi tries to take your arm off when you try to do anything at home. So you bring her to a groomer, because after all, better them than you, right?

Unless you groom dogs you will not understand how to handle a bad dog for grooming. Most of the time all of the leg pulling you see is the groomer holding onto the dog's leg and the dog is wildly trying to break free with dramatic jerks.

Dogs are creatures of habit and if you let the dog win a battle, then they think they can act that way every time and get out of being groomed. They are not abusive, they are doing their job.

Why didn't you make her stop? Or call a manager or the cops?
