Pet Owners Deserve Answers. And We’re Not Afraid to Listen.

If your pet was injured, mistreated, or put at risk by a groomer, we want to know. This page exists because accountability matters, and you deserve better.

If your pet was injured, mistreated, or put at risk during grooming, we want to hear from you. Use the form below to tell us what happened. Your voice matters. Please include your pet’s name, the groomer or salon name (if known), the date of the incident, what happened, and any city, state, or veterinarian details. Let us know if the groomer claimed IAPEG certification and whether you’d like a follow-up. We review every report seriously because your pet deserves better, and the industry needs to be held accountable.

At IAPEG, we don’t hide from the hard stuff. Most of this industry stays silent. We don’t.

If a groomer hurt your pet or if something felt wrong, we’re giving you the space to report it. No runaround. No sugarcoating. Just a simple promise: we’ll listen, and we’ll take it seriously.

We created this because we care about more than pretty haircuts—we care about your pet’s safety, well-being, and trust. Our certified members are held to a higher standard for a reason. And if someone is misusing our name or abusing your trust, you’re damn right we want to know.

This is how change starts, with truth. And you.
