I only remember one time when my aunt took her dogs, Eddie and Nikki, to the groomer. They're Poms so they're really fluffy, but I think the whole family is used to the shedding so we don't really notice, except when I see a piece of fuzz and panic because I think it's a spider, lol. I think my aunt does pretty well grooming them at home, though they have to feed them treats to get them to stay calm in the bath, lol.
