- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
No because there is no such thing as a standard dog. I charge according to the dog on my table. The better care the owner takes to keep the coat decent, the less of an inconvenience it is to me, therefore the less I will charge. I have no problem explaining each and every reason for any of my charges.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
