- Can dogs be traumatized at groomers?
Yes, this can happen. Just like people, dogs can also feel ashamed of their new look. They will display this as embarrassed or depressed. Some places could be a bit rough, which the dog will display fear when going. However, most of the time, if the dog doesn’t want to go it’s because it doesn’t like baths and all that primping. Think about it at home, does your dog like you giving them a bath? If not, they are not going to like others they don’t know to do it either.
