Grooming procedures can sometimes be stressful especially for a senior pet or pets with health problems. Because of this, grooming can expose hidden medical problems as well as aggravate a current one, whether it be during or after the groom.
Because senior pets and pets with health problems have a greater risk of injury, these pets will be groomed for cleanliness and comfort as Pawsitivity will not compromise any dog's health and/or well-being to achieve "the perfect groom." The pet owner will advise Pawsitivity of any medical, physical, emotional issues, allergies, sensitivities, or pre-existing conditions. These conditions may include, but are not limited to prior surgeries, hip and/or joint issues, warts, moles, ear infections, or skin problems. The owner will also inform Pawsitivity of new conditions as they arise.
Pawsitivity will not be responsible for accident or injury to an elderly or health-compromised pet during their grooming. By signing below, the owner is stating that Pawsitivity has permission to groom their senior dog and has discussed any and all (past and present) health problems.
If a pet is over the age of 7, a Senior Pet Release Form must be completed before any services are rendered.
