Groomer Allegedly Cuts Dog's Ear Off, Glues It Back On
February 15, 2007

GIG HARBOR, Wash. -- Anni Sheriffius said she was trying to wash off what she thought was dirt on her dog Jasmine’s ear when the ear fell off. Then she realized her dog’s groomer cut off the dog’s ear and super-glued it back on.
The dog owner says she’s been crying every since she discovered that a dog groomer cut off her dog’s ear then super-glued it back on.
“And I saw the ear float away, and it freaked me out,” described Sheriffius.
She says she couldn’t believe what she was seeing when she saw her dog, Jasmine’s, ear fall off during a bath.
Sheriffius rushed her dog to the veterinarian, who told her the dog’s ear had been cut off and super-glued back on.
Jasmine, a Shi Tzu, had to undergo treatment for an infection. Sheriffius said she still has the ear in a plastic bag and has been crying for weeks at the thought of someone hurting her dog.
Pierce County sheriff’s investigators are looking into possible criminal charges against the unlicensed dog groomer.
“Once they tried to hide it and glued the ear back on, that’s not good for the dog. There are all kinds of things that can happen, infection, it’s cruelty to animals,” said Det. Ed Troyer.
The shop where Jasmine was injured in Washington, J’Rae’s Pet Grooming, appears to have shut down according to KIRO-TV.
“I’d like her never, ever to touch another dog. That’s what I’d like to see,” said Sheriffius.
