Tears Flow as Noo Lek Furious Over Dog Grooming Salon That Cut Dog's Ear Off

Noo Lek Pattarawadee posted an emotional account of her dog Chai's traumatic grooming experience, detailing how a local pet salon accidentally cut off her elderly dog's ear. Normally taking Chai to his regular veterinary clinic for grooming, she was forced to use an alternative salon when appointments were full. The salon staff cut Chai's ear and attempted to hide the severity of the injury, only applying basic first aid and delaying notification. The veterinarian confirmed the wound was deep - approximately 2 centimeters - and while still treatable, would cause significant pain. Noo Lek was devastated, noting that Chai is an elderly dog who is already visually impaired and has hip problems. The salon initially offered only 1,800 baht for medical expenses and refused to compensate for emotional damages. Noo Lek is now considering legal action, emphasizing that under civil law, damages should cover both medical expenses and emotional distress, especially for beloved pets who are considered family members.
