Pet grooming studio in Kenya
Non-clinical grooming with species-appropriate handling
A CONCRETE EXAMPLE · ILLUSTRATIVE
Fictional studio appointment: a competent dog groomer provides one pre-assessed adult dog with a bath, supervised drying and coat brush-out. Scope is agreed after a meet-and-greet; severe mat removal, invasive procedures, sedation and treatment of skin or ear disease are excluded. Begin with one animal at a time rather than filling cages. The owner receives a coat-care note and prompt disclosure of any interrupted work.
