Thank you for coming to this section to learn the reasons I’ve had to stop taking on Oodle clients.
This includes Doodles, GoldenDoodles, Bernadoodles, Sheepadoodles, AussieDoodles,
Cockapoos, Bichonpoos and most Poodle Mixed Breeds as regular clients.
*I am willing to consider senior ‘Oodles’ who have limited mobility or special needs.*
Please know it is not personal! I love all dogs and I Agree that ‘Oodles’ are such a lovely family breed.
The reason are purely due to Personal Safety and Business.
These Poodle Mixed Breeds are very labour intensive. Brushing, detangling, bathing, blow drying, clipping and scissoring these breeds on a regular basis is affecting my body, particularly my wrists, in ways that threaten my ability to continue to be a groomer.
I’ve come to believe that these breeds are a two-person job, which is not the way I’m set up with the service I offer.
The considerable time and physical effort that is required to complete most ‘Oodle’ grooms results in a total fee that I honestly feel is unfair to charge, but necessary to run a viable business.
For these reasons, I have decided to recommend that people with these breeds find a groomer who is prepared to take on these lovely floofers.
Thank you for understanding,
Owner/Pet Stylist
