Has a dog ever been injured in your care?
We have a client who just picked up their dog yesterday. Today she said she took him to the vet and that he has scabs and a scratch on his eye, requiring eye drops. She says he is dehydrated and constipated. She suspects that our husky dominated him for food and water. How do you deal with situations like this? We feed all dogs separately so there is no opportunity for food aggression or domination, so I know this wasn't the case. I know that sometimes when dogs are away from home, their eating patterns can change. When we do meet and greets, I am very up front about our husky's energy level. She loves to play. Dogs play with their bodies. When we have clients over to meet, the dogs play and it's "rough" or at least looks rough to humans, who don't use their bodies, mouths, and paws to play. Usually people like this and appreciate how the dogs play and tire each other out. Is it normal procedure to offer a refund? I feel like things like this could happen at a dog park too... So, I feel awful that he got hurt, but I do feel that it was a result of normal play. And sorry that he didn't eat much, but definitely feel that that could just be stress from being away from home. Right? What should I do?
