#me: god what if foxy's dad chooses to breed her to a mongrel? #god: ha! haha. lmao. lol. *special request booking* #like. foxy's dad says hes nice but they let his grooming go. #coworker who spoke to owners said the dog had grooming experience. #but what does that mean. bc if he's in rough shape and he loses patience with the process. will he stay behaved. #has he only been groomed once or twice. will i even be able to pick him up onto the table. #chows are reserved dogs that dont tend to broadcast their body language as much as other dogs #so theyre known to kinda. swing on you suddenly. #but theyre also stubborn and POWERFUL so if it starts fighting and thrashing on the table even trying to keep it safe becomes a bite risk #foxy's been coming to us since she was like. 4mo old #i dont know what to expect from this chow except that his coats in rough enough shape that i need him to be good for brushing and drying #its just a dog you have to actively train to be tolerant and a lot of people dont know that #my most eagle eyed no nonsense coworker is working with me that day so realistically she's gonna save me from myself #the nightmare scenario is this dog acts fine at checkin but cant be picked up or kenneled #at least thats a quick 'get yo fuckin dog bitch' moment but itll still derail the salon for an hour minimum #im not paid enough
