Breeds of dogs come in many different shapes, sizes and colors, so no two dog breeds are exactly alike. A groomer who is not aware of the specific breed requirements for a particular type of dog can end up treating the pet poorly because they do not understand the nuances of the breed. For example, some popular dog breeds require heavy-duty grooming that may not be appropriate if your client’s dog does not have thick fur. In this case, the groomer could end up ruining the coat or harming the animal in other ways.
If you are unfamiliar with a client’s dog breed, it is best to ask them directly. You can also use Google or other online resources to learn more about specific dog breeds and their grooming requirements.
