Mat Removal: I agree to allow R.U.F.F. Cuts to shave my dog if it is deemed to be matted to an extent that brushing the mats would cause pain and suffering to the dog. Whether a dog is “matted” is at the sole discrimination of R.U.F.F. Cuts. I will be informed of the procedure if it needs to be carried out and understand additional charges will apply due to extra time needed. I agree R.U.F.F. Cuts shall not be held liable for any after grooming effects of the dematting process and problems uncovered on a matted or otherwise neglected coat. These include, but are not limited to: itchiness, redness, or self-inflicted irritations/abrasions from excessive external rubbing.

I understand that if I am more than 10 minutes late, I will charged a late fee of $5.00 and it may take longer for my dog to be groomed. If I am more than 15 minutes late, I understand that Ruff cuts may deny my appointment due to lack of time and I will be charged a fee of $10.00 payable on next appointment.

I agree that if I do not attend my scheduled appointment I will be charged 50% of the groom cost as a “no show” fee, payable on next appointment. I agree if I am a “no show” twice within a 12 month period, I will have to reserve all future appointments with a 50% deposit, payable when scheduling the appointment.
Returned Check Policy: I understand that checks returned due to insufficient funds are charged a $30.00 Service Fee on top of the groom cost to pay for bank fees, payable within 1-2 business days after the check is returned.
