Rascalmyshadow Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Sorry for your loss that is appalling. I would be suing them for as much as you can. I have been a groomer for 18 years now and there is a good reason I don't use any form of restraints, a good patient groomer shouldn't need them.

shmoo Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Only a negligent groomer leaves a dog on a table unattended. But this doesn't help bring your boy back. I have a fair idea which grooming salon you are referring too as well. Is he your only dog you had groomed? If you have a small dog you are most welcome to make a booking at the salon where I work in Kingswood. PM me if you want to have a chat about anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clyde Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Oh my GOD :cry: :cry: :cry: Please tell me that's not the same dear old boy I groomed for you once?? Bloody Hell Caz, he was just the nicest boy, you know if you or your parents didnt adopt him I was going to jump in line. OMFG. He looks so lovely in that photo compared to when I saw him. You obviously did such a lovely job getting him in to such good condition. My heart is aching for you, he was truly such a special dog. He just had an aura about him that made you want to love him. I am so so sorry and as equally disgusted that some idiot bloody moron would be stupid enough to leave a dog on a table. Thinking of you *hugs* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andrewang Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 (edited) So sorry for your loss. An avoidable accident IMO. You should sue them for as much as you can, even though no amount of compensation can bring Buddy back. Hopefully with a huge penalty, the groomer will wise up and prevent something like that from happening ever again, thus saving the life of other dogs.

WreckitWhippet Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 That is horendous, I'd sue the groomer for that. It's the very first rule of grooming... Never leave a dog unattended on a table. On behalf of all of us responsible and caring groomers, I'm so sorry for your loss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malamum Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 I'm so so sorry. It's really really scary to think that this type of stuff can happen. Where the hell was the groomer and why was he left alone for so long? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mita Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 (edited) I'm no lawyer, but the Prevention of Cruelty Act in NSW says that 'a person in charge of an animal... shall not fail to take reasonable care to prevent an act of cruelty'. Any reasonable person would say that someone leaving a dog, wearing a choke chain, on a table alone, is highly likely to cause a pain & suffering. The grooming establishment even admitted the neglect. Also, doesn't the law regard a dog as property? Could this grooming salon be made to pay for not returning owner's living dog... via the Small Claims Court? There's a LawAccess NSW phone no where the members of the public can ask questions. 1300 888 529 Edited January 7, 2013 by mita Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
