    Yeah, Sampson looks JUST like my old cocker spaniel (who was a rescue from a puppy mill breeding cockapoos!), complete with massive feet, docked tail and anxiety issues. This little guy doesn't have the spaniel ears, which would be a dead giveaway, but I'm with Vanessa on this one. Probably a cockapoo from an unethical breeder.

      For all we know, some of the pups could have come out with cocker ears, and they had a back-alley "vet" trim them in a partial docking, so they wouldn't pass as cockers so easily. It sadly doesn't pay to underestimate how scummy some people can be.

      Not if the owners correctly understand grooming is a TEAM effort. You never leave it up to the groomers. I have successfully trained over 45 rescue dogs for the groomers. 3-5 days a week desensitizing did WONDERS! I mean it was like incredible to witness the improvements. We did practice grooms and they all learned to love getting pampered. All different breeds and not a single one was ever reactive after. If zero training gets done at home-the dog will continue to be reactive. And stressed! Why anyone would want their dog stressed for the groomers is beyond me lol. Behavioral training is not optional-it’s mandatory regardless of the breed,history,age,personality etc. My mom was a vet so I’ve been taking care of animals since I was old enough to walk lol. And I’m rattled to the core how many people don’t train their animals. I’m a huge advocate for behavioral training. Especially for our poor groomers. Just because they put up with certain behaviors doesn’t mean they have to. Groomer/vet burnout is REAL. And it’s heartbreaking. Ive watched my mom’s mental and physical health deteriorate when she was in her prime. When you would do anything to help an animal but their owners do the bare minimum…I wish I was exaggerating when I say throughout my 27 years in animal rescue (I’m 33) I’ve personally known over a dozen groomers who have quit their job after 5-12 years. Those who didn’t quit-no longer accept any difficult clients which brings on pretty rough guilt. Especially that another groomer may cause the dog to have more issues. As for vets..it’s a different story-there’s usually a team to help out but it’s still beyond stressful.
      So please…let’s advocate for better training. Our professionals deserve better!!! And so do our animals!

    Growing up, our family dog was a purebred miniature poodle. Grooming for him was like a day at the spa. He absolutely loved it. When we took him to his groomers house, he would run to the front door and then bolt inside when it opened. When we picked him up, he would prance around to show off his new groom which was a classic show dog cut. He was certainly a handsome dude.

    After watching these videos I spent a month teaching my adult dogs to shake and high 5. Several times a day before their first professional groom we'd practice touch, then touch and hold for progressively longer times. I then took my nail clippers and tapped all their nails while holding their paws. They aren't super well trained on other things, but they do quite well now with paw handling. The groomer said they were champs, so it was worth the effort.

      That's the Cocker genes. Most Cocker's have touch issues when they can't see. It was a serious problem in the breed back in the 1980s. Sometime watch a dog show while Cocker's are being judged and you'll notice the handler literally pulls the ears forward while hold both the ears and muzzle and the dogs invariably 'twitch' when the judge touches their rear quarters. The seasoned judges go over Cockers in a constant motion, starting at the neck and running their hands back over the body so there isn't an interruption.

      I guess it may be important to the owners and to also get a better idea of his temperament. I wish I'd known the temperament of my Shih Tzu before we had adopted him, because even though he was an absolute angel, he was stubborn and had quite a few food allergies. Knowing that may have prevented me from accidentally annoying him as a kid, and maybe alleviate some of the pain he went through.

      @@pragyasingh2297 I had a Shih Tzu with similar characteristics, but that is just the nature of Shih Tzu's. You learn to deal with their stubbornness and any medical conditions that they, or any pet, may have. I do agree with Vanessa however with regards to unscrupulous breeders. Sometime time ago I adopted a barn cat from a local shelter. He was large but very friendly. The shelter said he was given up for adoption because the prior owner thought he was too big and too rambunctious. I adopted him anyways - although he actually adopted me! You have to realize that dogs and cats are thinking, feeling creatures just like people along with all the idiosyncrasies that entails. If you are looking for the "perfect" pet you won't find it and in that case you are probably not cut out to be a pet owner. Remember, when you get a pet you do so because it will be a companion to you and that means you are obligated to take care of it. Make sure the dog or cat chooses you and then be prepared to treat it like a living being and not a show piece or play toy. BTW, "Nelson" is my best buddy!

    interesting that he's sensitive on his paws and rump but not his face, I've heard that if dogs had their tails docked later into puppyhood or a bad experience during docking (idk what counts as a bad experience or not) they could have higher chance of being anxious with grooming around that location. Docking is slowly becoming banned across Canadian provinces as well as various countries around the world so hopefully we'll have a future of slightly less anxious puppies coming in for grooming someday

    • @Solitude11-11
      @Solitude11-11 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +42

      Docking is always a bad experience, it is done without anaesthesia and is removing part of the spine. Depending on how it is done, it can leave the tail very sensitive for life, which can cause issues with handling that area. I’m in the UK and it’s banned here but I had quite a few dogs in rescue prior to the ban that had painful tail stumps.

    This is why people who feel like they must buy rather than adopt should do their due diligence and make sure they find a good, HONEST breeder.

      True! I have a miniature Goldendoodle. She is a multi generation and I met both of her parents before taking her. She looks like both parents. There is no doubt about her breed.
      I wish people would quit mixing everything with a poodle. The original two doodles are all that should ever be bred.
      Cockapoos aren't Doodles.
      My Goldendoodle doesn't look like Sampson at all, other than a similar coloration.

      Doodles are sweet (sometimes) but they aren’t a “breed.” They’re a mutt, a mixed breed. You never know what you’re gonna get. If that’s what you want, that’s fine. But please don’t be duped into thinking it’s a designer dog. It’s not.

    Thank you for noting the difference between dog LOVERS and dog PEOPLE.
    I've been grooming for 15 years, and I appreciate what you do. Out of curiosity, do you ever have someone offer them something to gnaw on when they're biting? I've found that in some (definitely not all) cases, chewing on something eliminates their urge to bite me or my equipment. Usually I just let them gnaw on some nail clippers. At this point, the ends of mine look like they went through a blender. 😂

    I personally like that you try to figure out his breed just because it helps to greater understand the pup you're dealing with. Like the way some people have strengths and little tics, sometimes dog breeds do too. Like I can tell Sammy's a very sweet boy but when he doesn't like something, he's really gonna make it very clearly known without a warning. Information like that might help me ask necessary questions to new owners with a similar breed.

I looked for a grooming dryer as you suggested and it was the answer to removing the thick under coat that I could not wash or brush out. She is now a beautiful black like she use to be. I washed and dried my Schipperkee in the tub shower with the curtain closed, it did make a big mess but I just left the hair covered tub to dry and vacuumed the hair up. Thanks for the tip.

Personally I think I would appreciate if someone more knowledgeable informed me, as I imagine it would be relevant to their health/care, but I'm sure some people wouldn't be happy!

When we took her for her after adoption checkup, the vet tech told us that she was a Belgian Malinois (she has two). Suddenly, her behaviours made sense.
