Question
hello,

I would just like to know if it is okay to take my dog to the groomers while she is on her heat cycle. she is a Malty poo and 8 months old.

thanks

Answer
It should be okay, as long as you tell them in advance that she is in season. Personally, though, I would wait until she is done with her heat cycle since I never trust anyone else to be reliable with one of my dogs when it is something so important. Some people can be truly stupid and careless.

Since she is a mixed-breed, you really should consider having her spayed and save yourself a lot of hassle in the future.
