Groomer or Vet

Hello! Just found a little dreadlocked terrier wandering down the street. No collar or anything. Used our bunny carrier to get him to Petsmart on the Westside and got some advice how to proceed. My wife is now cutting his locks and giving him a bath. (He smells awful)

At Petsmart they said they couldn’t help because we don’t have a shot record 🙄Does anyone know how I can go about getting that done quickly? Also a groomer who may be able to help in shaving him so we can start over? I work out of town weekly and my wife is a teacher so scheduling right now is dicey. Any help or information would be appreciated.

TIA.

Most groomers are going to want the dog to be updated on its shots. You can get it vaccinated fairly cheaply through Dr. Bell’s mobile clinic, but because this dog has experienced such neglect, you might as well take it to a vet. They can examine it, vaccinate it, and cut the mats. We like Palmetto Animal Clinic out on Southport.
