I have a Westie who is in serious need of some grooming. He needs a bath, his nails trimmed and at 7 months-his first hair cut. I've given him a bath and taken him to trim his nails before but I've never taken him to get a cut or to the groomers. I want him to look good for Christmas so I will take him to a groomer to do everything. He has a small problem though...he tends to nip and want to bite if someone is touching him in a way he doesn't like, and I'm positive he will be scared of scissors since he's never had a cut before. I don't want to cause problems with the groomers so how can I handle this? Should the groomers be experienced with different reactions from dogs? Will they provide him with a muzzle if he needs it or do I need to bring one? I don't want a law suit along with the groomers bill! Any suggestions on how to make his first grooming experience a good one would be appreciated
