Open dog groomers
As the weather is warming up, many dogs are getting uncomfortable in their long coats. Hopefully dog grooming business could be safely reopened with minimal human interaction.
Why the contribution is important
Putting uncomfortably hot dogs out of their misery.

Unlike us if a dogs hair becomes to long it can lead to skin conditions on the (paws) and ear problems (infections) in the ear.

Our dog groomer had already looked at ways to introduce social distancing before the lock-down started, and it would be very easy to do: hand the dog over at the door, it goes straight in the bath, collect the dog at the door when it is finished. It has very little risk of transmitting infection - much less than going to the supermarket or other shop.

Like many dog owners, i let mine go over the winter and was booked in for their first groom a day after lockdown started.
This is not a matter of vanity, it is a matter of animal welfare. I finally found a groomer who had just re-opened and she took two days to do both dogs (had to keep them with her overnight) because they were in such a state that they were beginning to be distressed at the length of time it was all taking.
Please, please sort this out.

As with most dog groomers, my dog groomer can easily provide the safe social distancing required. I would leave the dog in the treatment room while the groomer waited in another room. At the agreed time, I would collect the dog and leave the payment. If there were any issues the groomer would telephone me to discuss them.
