The younger member of our Snore of Spaniels after being groomed last week.
Unfortunately, the haircut was a little too short. Murphy ended up gnawing at his tail and belly because he was irritated. And because dogs are dogs, the more he licked the worse he got. One vet trip and $183 dollars later, he’s on 3 different prescription steroids to counter the inflammation and doing MUCH better.
The groomer did nothing wrong, we just found out that Murph has a sensitive nether area. Lesson learned. Next time we’ll leave the hair longer down below.

Aww, that’s such a bummer about having issues after the grooming. Murphy is such a sweet looking pup 🙂
Kimberly says
Aw, thank you! He’s doing much better now. Next time we’ll get him the oatmeal shampoo and fuzzier … parts. 🙂
