Dog grooming

I really like the idea of an add on that is solely based around dog grooming. I’m not sure how difficult that could be to make but here are some ideas.

adding on to the cats and dogs pack:

-able to start a dog grooming business                   -having different styles of dog grooms and what dog grooms suit each breed and being able to choose from the options ea displays.                         -being able to level up in dog grooming skill.           -the sims using actions such as shaving and scissor cutting                                                                    -doing it step by step such as.. 1.bath 2.blow dry 3.shaving/scissor cutting 4.spraying with a cologne of your choice.                                                                                     -having good or bad moodlets depending on if the sim got what they wanted out of the grooms and the smells of the colognes. (Maybe depending on their likes and dislikes?)                        -some dogs act up during their grooms and some don’t? (Potentially adding biting, moving around a lot etc.)

Just an idea as it would be cool to be able to do something like this 😊

  • I love that idea!! Just imagine a standard poodle with a classic poodle cut, and malteses all poofy, etc. I vote yes!!

    This should definitely be an update a pet shower would be so cute 

  • Hey everyone, I have posted about my idea before and I was thinking of possibly doing a… Dog Grooming expansion pack/or add on.

    Here are some ideas for ea for this pack/add on in the potential future… Being able to start your own Dog Grooming business (just like any other business).. Objects such as a dog grooming table, dog bath, blow dryer, scissors, clippers etc. and these all be functional and we will be able to watch our sims do this process. Actions such as shaving the dog, scissor cutting the dog, clipping the dogs nails, using a finishing off spray, placing bows/bow ties on the dog once the groom is complete… New aspiration? Such as maybe wanting to become a successful dog groomer. And maybe new traits?.. Potentially adding accidental injuries and there may be an option to send to the vet. Once the dog is booked in for a groom, potentially adding a pop up that gives options on which groom to do and different styles (depending on the different breeds).eg. A poodle will get different options as to what breed specific groom you choose such as teddy bear cut etc.. Adding a negative matted dog mood-let (shaving a matted dog could have risks such as injury and taking a lot longer than usual as well)… Having dogs who misbehave during the grooming process such as biting, moving around, barking etc. and negative mood-lets from those as-well. Or positive mood-lets if the dog is well behaved!.. Different shampoo options and finishing spray options (depending on their scents). The sims will get either negative or positive moodlets depending on if they like the smell of them or not?.. Adding step by step on what your sim needs to accomplish and having the option to stop the groom and send dog home if need be. Maybe even adding a water bowl for dogs too and crates to put them in while waiting for owner to pick up!!! So that’s my idea and I hope you all like it too, please let me know your feedback below :)
