I use to groom a 2 yr old male cocker . From the first time he came as a puppy I knew this one had only one goal and that was to get me. This was the second cocker I had groomed for this couple. First was great. She started complaining he was snapping at the kids. That very day he turned and went for me on the table. I called her and told her what happened. She said she would advertise him and find a home . I told her , she would be liable for him since she knew his problem and if she could not take him in and put him down I would. Since we used the same vet I had her call and tell them I was coming. Of course I had to get him out of the cage first. I never looked back and did not feel bad. I would have felt awful if he had bit some one else I have done a couple springers with that same look. After the second grooming I never allowed them to come back. After you work with time bombs like that you know it will happen you just don't know when Sally I have never had a dog of my own that would ever think about challenging me. If they did they would no longer be with me. ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2006.
