Don’t let Mariah groom your dog. I was in there and she was yanking on your dogs leash and yelling at him, his name is Sonny hes a yellow lab. I did speak with the manager Katy to report the incident. Mind you she did this infront of 3 other customers. What’s happening in the back where none if us can see? Not acceptable. Every other experience I’ve had with other groomers have been just fine so far.
