If you are looking into getting your dog groomed, then understanding what goes into the full service is important before you shop around for the cheapest price, as a lot of physical effort is involved.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

10. Your hairdresser doesn\u2019t wash and clean your rear end.<\/p>\n

9. You don\u2019t go for 8 weeks without washing or brushing your hair.<\/p>\n

8. Your hairdresser doesn\u2019t have to give you a sanitary trim.<\/p>\n

7. Your hairdresser doesn\u2019t have to clean your ears.<\/p>\n

6. Your hairdresser doesn\u2019t have to clean boogies from your eyes.<\/p>\n

5. You sit still for your hairdresser.<\/p>\n

4. Your haircut doesn\u2019t include a manicure or pedicure.<\/p>\n

3. Your hairdresser only washes and cuts the hair on your head.<\/p>\n

2. You don\u2019t bite or scratch your hairdresser. (I hope not anyway).<\/p>\n

And the Number 1 reason your dog\u2019s haircut costs more than yours\u2026.<\/p>\n

1. The likelihood of you pooping or peeing while your hair is being cut is extremely slim.<\/p>\n
