To all those that answered my question about whether a dog groomer drugs your animal before grooming, thank?

Question

you. The reason I asked is because when I brought my dog back home he was very lethargic and tired for 2 hours before he was himself again. I will not take my dog back to this person and was why I asked if any drugs could have been used.

Answer 1

I missed your first question, but you bring up an interesting point. Any dog groomer that drugs your dog before grooming should not be allowed to practice, unless those meds were provided by your vet specifically for your dog in those circumstances.

My dog always comes back from the groomer tired, but she plays with other dogs & barks/jumps around all day while she is there.

Dissenting opinion,,,,,,,

Know many people that LIKE being bitten????

With many dogs a groomer has two choices, give it a small amount of Acepromazne or refuse the job.
Now I agree it shouldn't be done without permission, but just think about this for a minute, how many people take their dog to a groomer because it tries to bite them every time they try to trim it's claws.

Answer 5

no groomer would use medication to sedate your dog...only the you can give the permission to do that under the supervision of your vet....but my dog (a tea cup Yorkie) does the same thing after being at the groomer.....I think it is stressful for him as well as playing with other animals....
