If I had a dog I would take him to U

Some dogs are very good dogs until it comes to grooming. My dog is the sweetest. But as soon as he sees the tub he is growling and will bite.

a handsome boy.

Experience breeds confidence.

Me either! I think he realized that she meant no harm and decided to be calmer for her.

@@FantaGuyXLivestop going around saying this it get annoying

He was a good client. 😊

​@@lils9695just report it, replying to them just give them what they want

Was thinking the same thing! All things considered, a very good boy

Well behaved?

Right? Although it might be because he knows if she does anything to hurt him there, he can get her. But he may be more nervous about other parts of his body because they are harder for him to defend.

He was so brave and his story is horrible... Humans confound me, we're capable of so much good but also unrivalled evil and I really don't understand it. I also don't understand why anybody would hurt such a charming doggo.

Good boy where?

yo your dog know you're shit talkin him on the internet?? 😂

I wonder if the muzzle isnt part of the problem. He only seemed to show signs of agression while wearing it and be mostly relaxed without. Still its of course safety first!

@@Daniel-rd6st It could also be that she only put the muzzle on WHEN she was doing something that would upset him

@@hunterpeterson1495 True 🙂

​​​​@@Daniel-rd6ste muzzle is insanely small for this dog. Muzzles, when properly conditioned/trained and fitted, have no effect on the dog whatsoever. Mine plays, drinks, takes treats, sleeps, barks, pukes, pants, yawns, etc. in his. This poor dog can't do most of those. If the dog needed to puke, it wouldn't be able to, and could choke and die. If the dog was overheating or stressed, it wouldn't be able to fully pant to cool or calm down. This is very dangerous. Quite often for grooming and vet visits, muzzles that are too small are used for maybe 5-10 minutes max. This is an 8 minute video, but probably not an 8 minute process. Fortunately the dog did get a break for a bit. But yeah, the muzzle is likely quite uncomfortable, potentially increasing irritation.

@@MadCheshireHat Thats what i thought too, the muzzle did look too small and it would be difficult for the dog to pant.

also i guess it's vanessa , she takes her time, read the dog at act accordingly...

​@@SirHeinzbondthat's one of the reasons why I like her a lot more than some other groomers. People tend to be immediately scared when something goes wrong. In my work, where I handle horses every day, people tend to use A LOT of unnecessary things just because a horse is too active or hard to handle. They start to get nervous, and horses don't like that as much as other animals do. It's absolutely normal for a horse to be with a character. Jump, nip, pull it's ears back. It's not always a sign of aggressive behavior. It certainly becomes one when people act too emotional. Vanessa definitely controls her body language and emotions on the right way

❤ lindo, que Deus o abençoe

I totally agree! Give him all the treats!

@@kelj4517 lmfao! It’s a goldendoodle ! Not a pitbull

​@@kelj4517 who tf would kick their own dogs face? actually, maybe you

@@kelj4517 you don't put down a dog because they were abused and have trauma. what the hell is wrong with you?

@@kelj4517the dog needs retraining and healing, not to be put down, good lord. This sort of thing is absolutely workable with a lot of cases. Girl even literally says he’s made massive improvements with professional trainers. Yes, he is somewhat dangerous right now, that’s why he has a muzzle.

I'd like to kick the person in the face that kicked him.

Poor thing 😭

Ohhhh poor sweet doggy, who does that 😢

@@EmmaT27 Very disturbed people.

Or, more likely, the dog was "friendly" and jumping up on strangers. I don't care how "nice" you think your dog is. I'm not risking losing a finger because you don't know what a leash is. If you don't want people to kick your dog, don't let your dog invade their space. It's an animal with sharp teeth and a strong bite.

I agree. I would not be surprised if his demeanor changed after getting those talons cut, they must have been extremely painful and would explain why he doesn't like being moved around or having his feet manipulated.

He probably got yanked around before they decided to kick him. Maybe he was being stubborn and not listening to them. Maybe he was already growling at them or didn't understand due to age, or inconsistency/poor training. Whatever the reason, there had to be something that pissed off the person or dog prior to the kick. There are people out there that only like dogs if they're obedient, and when they aren't, they get unreasonably angry and hateful when the dog doesn't do what they tell them.

i agree, unless the dog is hurting or killing another person/animal, you should never hurt them. I hope that the person who kicked him faced consequences for their action.

Imagine not liking dogs...

@@patriciaviczmandy649 Most of us cat people wouldn't hurt a dog intentionally--we just don't like 'em. Cats are the superior species--we know that and don't have to prove it by being a-holes to other animals. 😉

​@@lizmcb4959 I worship cats, but I would never ever hurt a poor dog. We don't deserve dogs.

@@patriciaviczmandy649 More likely an idiot dog-person who couldn't handle their dog, lord knows the world is full of them. (disclaimer, not all dog people are idiots, but there are plenty of idiot dog people out there. Doing way more harm than cat-people ~~)

There’s no such thing! It’s just how bad is your allergy and how much hair does the dog have. All depends on those factors.

Yeah, having a doodle isn’t going to help if you’re allergic to dog saliva lol

​@@emmuzbooshpet allergies come from skin dander, saliva, and urine and not hair/fur.

Hypo = less then. So most doodles *are* hypoallergenic, it's just a question of how much. The error is that people think it means they're 100% not allergic to hypoallergenic dogs.

Doodles, which come from the French word, Les Dooodles, is hypoallergenic on Tuesdays and every other Thursday. I would go into more detail but you need a good understanding of 19th century pre-industrial German.

Trauma reaction. Humans also fight, flight or freeze but dogs being a diff species read smell, sight, sound then touch. Sense of smell by far is most dominant and 10K - 100K stronger then dogs.

Yeah I don’t think anyones denying that or at least I hope not.

Anyone else reaching for a pitchfork or torch when they heard about kicking a dog in the head?

@@ginastarke2 I'd get my aluminum baseball bat.

i bring mine in with a muzzle because hes funny with every other person in existence, but apparently he never needs his muzzle at the groomers 🤣

I completely agree. I just wish they had a muzzle with enough pant room so he felt more comfortable. Him clawing at it made me sad. He's already stressed, he needs to be able to pant. This muzzle also isn't bite proof so if he has a bite history, he really should have a basket muzzle that is bite proof and would allow him to have pant room.

BearBear, Our sweet little senior Westie mix is reactive to dogs larger than him. About 7-8 years ago he was attacked by a free range behemoth dog. I had to pull his head out of the other dog’s mouth. I don’t know how he didn’t lose an eye or part of his ear. I really thought that ear was a goner. He doesn’t lunge or bite but I’m afraid his defensive barking will start something with new acquaintances. He has ptsd. He’s just a teddy bear.

Nah nah yall dog lovers don’t understand how dangerous a dog can be. We all have at least one friend that owns a dog that barks uncontrollably. I dont hate dogs dogs are very cute but DOGS ARE NOT THAT SAFE. Ik dogs should be loved and cared for when they’re unstable but human lives are more important. A dog can easily bit off a person body part if it wants to. Yall dog owners should know how to handle dogs before getting one. The muzzle was essential

@@kkkharen 🤨 nah, as a dog lover, this aint it. I advocate for muzzle training all dogs. Because I want to set them up for success. Dogs can be unpredictable when stressed, in pain, unwell, ect. The fact I acknowledge this and respect the damage that a dog can cause, does not mean I love dogs any less.

Your sister is very lucky, and obviously dedicated quite a bit of time and dedication to her puppers 🐾🐾🐾

Yeah you can tell as the groom progresses that he's a well behaved dog with some issues regarding specific things. And aren't we all like that too? You bet I would be wary of strangers if someone kicked me in the head when I was young. Poor boy...

❤️❤️❤️

The dog is not aggressive. I wish as a society we would start using words in a literal fashion. This dog is the literal definition of defensive. In 40 Years of rescue and Rehabilitation, specializing in dogs labeled as aggressive, I've yet to meet an aggressive dog. Literally every dog that I've had come in with that label has been wrongly labeled. Animals aren't aggressive. They are defensive. Yes, there are exceptions to every rule. But, as a whole, animals don't display aggression. The definition of words are extremely important and they are there for a reason. It is time for us as a species to do better and start using words as they are meant to be used. Using the aggression label on animals can cost them their lives. Simply because some human has labeled them with the word that does not literally Define their situation. Every animal I've taken in that has been deemed aggressive has only been defensive because of something some stupid human did to them

Yeah! I became tearful too... Yogi is a really sweet soul but misunderstood 😞

​@@streghewitch77aggression IS a defensive mechanism. There is a difference when the animal is just defensive, those usually only use scare tactics and run away at the right moment, and an animal that attacks first when it's scared that someone will do it before and hurt them. I do understand tho. You just need different tactics for different scared animals. You can't just let yourself into the room with an aggressive animal. Defensive animals tend to be fore fragile and safe for handling and taming

My brain immediately went to "Clarice..." too! Ahaha

😆😆😆

😅

🤣🤣🤣🤣

I wonder if it is the owners or the breeders... Then again, I have noticed that Golden retrievers do have a sharpness (compared to Labs) and poodles may have a bit of nerves - not the ideal combination? Where I think Goldens and Standard Poodles are just amazing breeds.

When you're dealing with larger, very smart dogs who might be kept by inexperienced owners, professional training would likely be the best option. The real problem would be owners not providing that training, either at home or otherwise.

good to see doodle owners are responsible enough to get their dogs trained. Unlike a LOT of purebred dog owners

@@elinamakela8435 likely a mix. We have an F1b (mom was a Golden Doodle 50/50 mix, and dad was standard poodle) golden doodle. They are super smart and learn very quickly (which is both good and bad if the owner doesn't understand what they're learning from us). We chose our's because we wanted a non-purebred dog who would have fewer health issues (from overbreeding of purebreds...so mutt vigor, essentially), but with a furry coat that is good for sensory seekers to feel (we pretty much all have sensory processing disorder, and 3 out of the 5 of us have anxiety...feeling the soft fur/hair can be helpful and calming), and also our's isn't small which was good because we wanted an oversized teddy bear. She proved to be all of those things and more. I clicker trained her myself, but she was also quickly house broken by observing our older (now gone) dog which taught her how to ask to go outside. We do have her professionally groomed, though I have groomed her myself (I just don't like the hairy mess, and don't have a good place in the house to do it)...and the pro is obviously better lol. She is a picky eater (poodle) and is scared of the unknown (not aggressive though)...she barked at a pallet of bricks in our backyard once...it was an invader and she totally failed as she backed away barking and came into the house. But she is every visitor's bff and as far as she is concerned, they are all here to see her.

Retrievers need alot of exercise

He was enjoying it. It looked like the whole bath was a good experience for him.

Doodles loooooove water

@@itcangetbetterI have 2 doodles. One loves the water. The other hates it. They all have different personalities. 😊

I’d love to see his next groom too!! A character redemption arc!

do you know what hypoallergenic means? hypo- does not mean none allergenic... people are dense.

And even if a dog DOESN'T shed doesn't mean it's safe for people with allergies, most of us are allergic to the dander (skin and saliva) which exist regardless of whether or not a dog sheds

@@dissentinel8 Yes this. Something people don't understand is that these things build up in the environment - dander is all over floors and furniture. My allergies are sooo much better in a house that regularly vacuums floors and/or doesn't let pets on the furniture.

Omg what a concept let's just not ?as with an already perfect breed. Poodles are hypoallergenic(not nonallergy though) but mixing them has no promise of that. Stop breeding doodles

I have a goldendoodle and a lot of people who are allergic to dogs walked up and petted him. There were numerous different ways they reacted. Some reacted like it was any other dog and still got the full reaction, some partly and some none at all. So it depends. I very much agree with you tho, it doesn’t mean that it won’t trigger an allergic reaction

That hooman must have had his own trauma to be doing that.

​@@jinnyjane1213no.

​@@jinnyjane1213possible, but i'd imagine someone with dog trauma would rather avoid a dog completely instead of kicking one in the head

@@catchapredator1413Bullshit. People abuse animals every single day for no reason at all. My aunt and uncle rescued a dog who was 6lbs and would scream if you tried to pick her up because her previous owner broke her ribs, kicking her. She could’ve fit inside a purse and didn’t even have teeth big enough to hurt anyone if she wanted to yet somebody was still cruel to her. You can trust dogs way more than you can trust a human.

there was a lot of constructive learning in this video. Vanessa has the skills for sure. S he is a Groomer, with extra set of skills she uses fot the best outcome.

It also means if Yogi goes to a different groomer in future, his owners can say "go watch this girl with the dogs video she talks about him and you can see how he behaves during a groom"

That's exactly why she makes these videos I forgot which video she mentioned this at but yes she wants to show people how properly groom even those so called hard to groom dogs & cat's because it's all possible with the right techniques...

Ditto!

❤❤❤

Our Yorkie hates everyone. Worst thing that happened to him was he fell off a bed as a puppy and broke his arm.

​@@ferretyluvsmall dogs are usually very scared of a much larger world around them. Very aware of that they can become aggressive aka "big dog syndrome" in hopes to keep from getting hurt. They don't always need a history of abuse to be mean little suckers. But they do need to feel secure to overcome it, and a sympathetic but firm trainer helps.

I’m sorry that happened. My little Yorkie loves going to the groomers. It is in the vets office. I never heard of a dog loving the vets office. She goes tomorrow and keeps going to the door because she heard us talking about it. I hope your furbaby out grows it’s fear.

@@chey7691my Pom/Corgi has never been attacked by a big dog, but this little Ahole has 💯 napoleon complex. He will literally attack dogs that could use him as a chew toy. One day he got out by accident and tried to attack a cane corso mix (sweet big fellow) who yeeted him like a newspaper. The owner was so apologetic… we’re like we get it, most dogs don’t like dogs coming at there face. Owner looked suprised and said “small dog owners never apologize” me… small dogs are demons, they’re just in cute costumes

@@trevnti i said it's because they are small and DON'T need to be traumatized to be an arse. Are you sure you read my comment?

Que devient le chien?

True ❤️

I've had some unfortuneate experiences with dogs. The first one was a family friends dog, who was agressive, pinned me behind a chair and was so agressive the family themselves had him put down by animal control. A few years later I was charged by a loose /stray dog and saved by a neighbor. There were other events. But I was just a child the first incident and I am only 5 feet tall so I have had a life time of being very selective of dogs that I meet. If I am already stressed, that ptsd will surge and I will even avoid the sweetest dogs. Still love them though!

It looks like that one fits him well, but I agree that a different style muzzle with more room for him to pant or drink water while still muzzled would probably be better for Yogi when he's stressed.

He would get it off too easily

To be fair its sometime a little hard to size things correctly around so much hair. But yeah i do think if they had periodically checked the muzzle they’d have noticed its a bit on the small size.

i've seen too many dogs rip an oversized muzzle off (he does try in the bath tub). the problem is keeping any muzzle on a dog for too long and she gave yogi breaks. better safe than sorry, a bite from a dog that size can break bones

This seemed totally the wrong size muzzle, Yogi couldn't open his mouth fully to pant in this one. I'm glad you took cues from his body language and gave him the opportunity to not have it on. Hopefully the owners take this info and work with it going forward.

i defenetly get it the most at the nails part and cropping near mouth

Unfortunately, psychopaths exist.

Self defense? Honestly lacking potential context, with just dropping the sentence "kicked in the head"

@@GetIsekaid She said 'by someone who doesn't like dogs' - I'm presuming that either meant they shouldn't have been around him in the first place or was just not very nice to him.

Very likely (I hope) someone with mental illness. I was walking my brown lab the other day a a psycho screamed at us for no apparent reason 🤷🏼‍♂️

I'm sorry,I can't relate to wanting to cry or feel sad for this baby. All I feel is rage. All I want to know: Is the thing that found it necessary to kick this baby in the head,is that thing in a vegetative state after getting his/her head caved in. Or is that thing paralyzed from the neck down. Or is that thing no longer on this earth. All of these option's are completely appropriate to me. After the thing has "suffered" ,then I can give that baby all the lovens and help to make his life beautiful.

I have a friend that is a vet tech, she says all of the poodle crosses are crazy, and most have health issues.

@@linslou1988 Almost every single one. We have a bernedoodle for puppy school and hes an absolute pain. He jumps up on me and bounces off of me. Like he's a bunny or something. The parents dont reinforce anything but omg I'm tired of being bruised all the time.

I totally agree. I worked with dogs as a groomer for years and in daycare/boarding for a few months. I'm done. I'm soooooo done. So many doodle owners are such Karen's too. And completely uneducated about ANY basic dog care. I'm so burnt out.

@@MrsFitzus Omg agreed! We straight up had people think we were abusing their doodles because they submissive peed. Then thought we didnt give them water but then they peed for 5 minutes after getting home.... common sense isnt a flower that grows in everyone's garden.

Cry me a river

Yogi didn't seem forced, he was persuaded. I think that mad a big difference.

I have a fear aggressive dog, and Yogi may not get all the walks he needs because the owner is afraid he will bite a dog or person. While training a fear aggressive dog I believe you are supposed to avoid the triggers at first, such as walks that pass by other dogs. It turns out that my dog snarls at other dogs while with me, but not with a dog walker. So she is professionally walked several times a week, but we will never be able to go back to the dog park where I spent many happy hourswith my other dogs.

​@ruthbrewer466 I've wondered if dogs are "protecting" their owner when they do that? Or resource guarding? I'd like to know why some dogs do that.

Not enough walks, and too much food...

@@icyqueen8296a dog not trained in protection work, isn’t protecting. He’s resource guarding and that’s dangerous
