Dog groomer caught on CCTV! (Video)

A pet salon in Moreton, Merseyside (England) has come under fire after a
CCTV footage surfaced on Social Media that allegedly shows a woman mistreating a pet in her care. Debonair Dogs Canine Grooming Salon issued a statement saying the clip had been investigated and the woman involved no longer worked there. In the footage, the woman grabs the dog and holds it by the scruff of its neck before repeatedly prodding it in the ribs, making it squirm and wriggle. The female groomer walks up to the dog at the back of the room, unleashes it, and picks it up. Unable to get a grip on the struggling dog, she holds it with one arm, and shakes it, looking at it while she does so.

Debonair Dogs Canine Grooming Salon released a statement saying: “As a recent video has come to light I would like to reassure all of our customers that the girl involved no longer works under our employment and has left to start her own business.I can assure you that all the Debonair Dogs team are huge animal lovers and we love nothing more than providing you and your pooches with the best care. The girl involved has been investigated as complaints have been brought to light by other members of staff which is why we had cameras put in place to see if there was any evidence to back these complaints up – which we managed to get. But as this is a serious matter, steps needed to be taken before it could be taken any further.We really hope to continue pampering your pooches and maintaining a caring environment for them. Thanks, Debonair Dogs team.”

She’s launching her own business after leaving salon!

The manager of Debonair Dogs, who declined to give his name, confirmed the video was taken at the grooming salon. He also confirmed the woman left the salon of her own accord two weeks ago. He said: “There’s a lot of people that are really upset. The police, the RSPCA, have been involved. I don’t really want to say anything until we’ve sorted things out with them.” Watch the video and hope her own pet’s grooming business will fail because with these behaviors, she shouldn’t be allowed near dogs!
