dog, When its not theirs. What im trying to say is how do they know if someone comes in there and says a dog name and its there how they know not to give it to the wrong person. The dog doesnt have a collar or anything on it.

After reading your responses i'm now concerned about dropping off my dog. When i asked them know they know the dog is mine they said it's how he behaves when i pick him up. I've even picked up my sisters dog w/out any issues.

The good, professional groomers often ask for ID up front so they can make sure that the person who picks up the dog is the same person who left it.
Most dogs left with groomers DO have collars and/or other forms of identification.
A smart dog-thief would steal your dog from your yard when you aren't around; he wouldn't go into a place of business where his face could be seen and he could be identified afterward. Also, we doubt that any dog theif would pay the groomer for work on a dog that wasn't his.

I have a black lab and she does not need her hair cut, but I have dropped my dog off to get bathed and they took my drivers license information and had to show it when I picked her up...I also had to give my dogs information so they could match her up with me....If I were to have someoen else pick her up, then I would have needed to also put there information down....But you never know what may happen....You can find groomers that are on wheels and will come to your home...my cousin has done that with her 2 dogs for the past 3 years, she has shitzu's and they need grooming regularly...She loves the service and is not much more expensive....

At the groomer I go to, the groomer knows all the owners and dogs that come in since it is a small shop. At a major place like PetsMart, they keep a detailed database of information. If they suspected you were not the owner they would check into it right away.

I have always used a personal groomer rather than going to a petstore like Petsmart. I found a lady who grooms dogs and went to her shop. I brought my dog and took some time to see if my dog felt comfortable with her. Once I was convinced that my dog was comfortable, and I felt comfortable, then I would leave my dog with her. The first couple of times I bring my dog to a new groomer, I usually wait right there until he/she is done with my dog.

My cat goes to the groomer. All I can say, the groomer SHOULD know your pet, unless you go to different ones all the time. However, when I take my cat, I also have her collar with the tags on it, (the law here in Fl.). When Narla, my cat is ready, she calls me, I tell her then if it will be me or someone else picking up the pet. She will check ID if necessary. Another thing GET A COLLAR.

Well for one most dogs will bark at you if they don't know you.
Second, the ones I have taken mine too the groomer that is going to work with my dog comes and greets me and takes my dog and she is the one that is going to groom it and be in charge of it. I know at petsmart that is what they do and if you come and pick them up whoever is at the front desk will ask who worked with such and such dog and get them to come up and talk to you.
But it does make you think huh?

the place we go to, the coller is left on (thats what they attach the leash to to hold them in place) and they call you to tell you they are ready and you go in and tell them the dogs full name ("spot smith")
but most of these places the people learn the animals and the people they belong to. like at the dog park we go to, everyone there knows all the other dogs and who they belong to just because they see them all the time.

Well, my old groomer was there all the time. He owned the place and he ran it. He had helpers, but was always there himself. We always had to sign our dogs in and out. Besides, they had a very loyal clientel and knew most of their customers.

because when the person tries to take the dog....the dog will bite their as s off...and this gives the groomers a clue.
