Consent to Groom
& General Liability Waiver
Because we care about the safety and wellbeing of all pets, we want to assure you that we will make every effort to make your pet's grooming visit as pleasant as possible.
If during an appointment it becomes apparent that your pet is not able to be groomed due to aggression/behavior or any other issue, the customer will only be charged for what services have been performed. Minor injuries such as nicks from clippers, scissors, or toenail trimmers may result if your pet does not respond to the groomer and remain still during the grooming or toenail trimming procedures.
If your pet has any allergies or medical conditions (epilepsy/seizures, diabetes, arthritis, separation anxiety, asthma, etc.), it is extremely important that you make the groomer aware of any medical & behavioral issues so that we can take the necessary steps to ensure your pet's utmost safety and comfort.

In consideration of the services rendered by TopDog Spaw, Customer waives any and all claims, actions, or demands of any nature, foreseen or unforeseen relating to the care, control, and health of customer's pet arising during or after services performed by the Groomer.
