Q. Why do some pet-groomers require proof of
shots and some don't ?
A.
Unfortunately there is no
Universal Service Standard (USS)
for pet-groomers or pet grooming services.
Pet grooming in general is an
unregulated service industry and non-licensed profession. Without a
(USS) Universal Service Standard
health and safety is left up to each business owner and/or
groomer providing performing a pet grooming service.

Standards
of Practice, policies
established 30 years ago requires
Proof of Vaccinations
for several reasons. The most important reason is to guard against
pets being exposed to unvaccinated animals before, during, or after
grooming.
The
second reason is to protect other pet owners pets patronizing our
pet grooming services from unvaccinated pets.
Third
- an employees health and safety is an employers responsibility. We
will not allow our employees to be exposed
to the unnecessary health and safety risks of working with unvaccinated pets.
