Can you groom a hairless dog like a xolo?(not like, if you are able to do it, but in the sense that, is there even something to do apart from the nails?)
This is the breed of dog that’s was featured in A Dog of Flanders. The film adaptation I’m familiar with was in 1999, but the book has been adapted to several films, tv shows, and a comic book.
A good video would be if you flip it around and have someone groom you. You play a dog, get trimmed and bathed. What an amazing video 😍😍😍 all 4'10 of a drop dead gorgeous 10 🥰🥰
@@stephpom5373 that’s super creepy dude :/
Please please groom a giant schnauzer.
This guy reminds me of a huge, bulky schnauzer. He kind of looks like a bigger version of my mini schnauzer. What a cutie
I have two mini schnauzers and I thought the same thing. I see a dog with a beard and pointy ears and my brain immediately thinks schnauzers
I thought the same thing.
This is what your schnauzer sees when he looks in the mirror 🤣
@@jaer492 I think all mini schnauzers think they are bouvs!
I thought so too! I've never heard of this breed before. Gorgeous boy!
I love schnauzers. My mom and dad both have one (separate houses bc they're divorced. )
I had a Bouvier. They are intuitive and protective. He saved me from an atacker in my office when I was
alone on a Saturday. I was cluless. By my Bouvier sensed that the man was up to no good. And
was very assertive and scared the man out of my office.
One of the Bouv's I had didn't like the guy who came to fix our stove one day. He took a chunk out of the repairman's toolbox!
I never knew this breed existed. He's adorable!
They aren't very common, probably due to the size & amount of exercise needed. Also the fact that their temperament isn't exactly Golden Retriever.
The Bouvier was close to extinction because of all the bombing and shelling in Flanders during World War 1
President & Mrs Reagan had one in the White House
They are strong as F trust me. One of them knocked down my big as dad on the ground. And my dad is fat and tall.
@@TesseRact7228 That, and the fact that they were used extensively as war dogs at the end of WW1.
Oakley is such a handsome boy! We are the proud owners of a 10 month old Bouvier. Having an 80lb baby flying around the house is a challenge but they are awesome companions ❤️
A good video would be if you flip it around and have someone groom you. You play a dog, get trimmed and bathed. What an amazing video 😍😍😍 all 4'10 of a drop dead gorgeous 10 🥰🥰
I have a 10 month old girl - she's a 'runt' (she's about 65lbs) and a total sweetheart. Unfortunately she's ALSO stubborn as a mule but I had a bouvier as a kid so I knew what I was getting into.
@@stephpom5373bruh wtf?
We have an almost 4 year old Bouvier. She’s 80 pounds an extremely Bouvier. She’s taller than every other dog she’s met, other than a Great Dane. She’s wasn’t sure what to think about him. 😂 She’s a good girl but definitely stubborn!
@@exerminator2000 I think it's a new kind of spam. That account is all over the comments.
Wow that boy was a challenge! 😮💨😊
And holy smokes, almost $20,000 raised?! Thank you so much to Vanessa and everyone who donated, y'all are amazing!💯🙌❤
A good video would be if you flip it around and have someone groom you. You play a dog, get trimmed and bathed. What an amazing video 😍😍😍
@@stephpom5373 i agree
I had the privilege of rescuing and caring for a Bouvier. They are one of a kind.
Rest in peace Jasmine. 🌺
Same! She's 13 now and on her last leg...almost literally. But she's a lovebug, polite and well behaved like I've never seen elsewhere.
A true sage. Love her so much.
😂 Oakley made me laugh because of his cute puppy like behaviour, and the way he was all smiles at the end. Him's is such a handsome boy ❤️ His generous tip at the end was classy 😜
💩💩💩
We had one of these at the K9 section when I was in the Air Force, thank god I had a German Shepard mix that weighted 85 pounds. The Boove weighted right around 110 pounds he was huge and the agility that dog had was amazing. We were doing aggressor training one day and one of my fellow dog handlers was in the Bite Suit outside the kennel compound and winding the dogs up he then ran off into the forested area for them to find. The handlers were inside the compound with their dogs, the Boove got so worked up that he broke off his leash and jumped a six foot tall fence with triple strand barbwire above that and went after the decoy. They are amazing dogs.
People sometimes think it's cute to work my bouv up and they don't understand what they are doing. This is not a lab! Lol
I am the happy owner of a 11 year old female bouvier - the 5th bouvier I have owned and trained. They are a wonderful dog - great for families. Smart - easily trained and usually a calm companion especially as they grow older. Thanks for showing this!
Hello girl with the dogs,
I am 13 years old and thanks to you I already know what I will be when I am older. I can not thank you enough and I promise you that if I ever open up my own grooming shop, my first client will be wearing one of your bandannas.
Oakley was amazing for behaving during his grooming session. I have to give credit to Oakley's owners for training him to be extremely well-behaved.
ahhh finally a bouvier!!! this was my childhood dog and she was amazing, she was definitely my mom's dog and followed her around the house and my mom always remembers our bouvier as the best guard dog. My dad had to go out of town a lot when my siblings and I were little, and my mom took so much comfort in knowing that our bouvier would not hesitate to protect us and definitely had the strength to because she was a force to be reckoned with ❤ She definitely fit the herding dog stereotype tho and ran circles around my siblings and friends lol, so happy to see this breed featured on your channel 😊
Our first Bouvier would tell us my mom was "about" to come home 5-10 minutes before she actually did. And it wasn't that she'd be home about the same time every day. My moms job had her come home between 4pm and 8pm, highly variable.
After understanding what she came to tell us, I started messaging my mom to see about where she was on her route home and it would seem that siting outside, listening to the environment, she was able to pick up my moms car up to 3 miles away if the wind came from the right direction.
When my mom got a new car, it took only a month before she was familiar enough with the new car to get back to telling us my mom was about to come home.
Bouviers are one of the smartest dog breeds I've ever had and them being so good as guard/police/military dogs comes from how smart they are and able they are to pay attention to their environment to the level of detecting either familiar or strange sounds literal miles away.
It's unfortunate that them being so energetic has made them unfavored as family pets, which has hurt an already low population breed even further.
They were nearly wiped out during the World Wars and their population still hasn't recovered to a level they have a healthy population.
@@enlightendbelin holland they are very popular. Also very easy to get here, many breeders
We had two when I was 5. Sugar and Spike. They were adorable! Huge monsters. Wish I had a farm and I'd have their breed again.
I had a Bouvier years ago. I can not say enough positive things about the breed. I adored her and went into a deep depression when we had to let her go. If you are thinking about one, get one, they are wonderful dogs with amazing qualities. It has been 20 plus years but it still brings me to tears when I think about her.
Hello
As soon as she said the breed name I literally yelled out loud oh my god. When I was 8 my Dad thought it would be a great idea to buy a girl from a irresponsible backyard breeder. We loved her but we were in way over our heads. Our yard was too small, my dad didn’t know how to properly train her, and she kept running away to our neighbors yard. My Dad made the hard but right decision to rehome Sedona to a family much better suited for her. Broke my heart then but I understand why he did it now.
Thanks for posting this video it’s really nice to see this breed again
RIP to Zeus, my brother's beige Bouvier. He lived to just past 10 years and we all loved him. He was a giant lap dog oaf lol. It was 'his job' to care for and herd any kids and grandkids and to run around the pool whenever any of us were in it. However, we were required to splash him with water frequently per his demands. My eldest boy, Coco, (who is now 12), looked like a mini me of him but he is older lol. He was just a good dog. He would only listen to tall people though. My brother, 6', my dad (shrunken lol), 5'10, and me, 6'2.
What a wonderful Big Boy he was.
What a handsome boy! He looked great after his groom!
He's gorgeous. Our Boov Frederica would try to herd my boys when they were little. She was such a personality. Once while I was making a quick stop in a market, she jumped out the car window and came in to find me. I was her favorite. :) Miss you Fred.
never heard of bouvier des flandres before! oakley's face reminds me so much of my friend's wheaten terrier aside from the fact that he's a significantly bigger boy 😂love when i get to learn about new dog breeds from this channel!
Was thinking the same thing. Work client has a Wheaton and they look almost the some minus the size and color.
They almost went extinct because of WW2
@@83dvl ohh can you tell me more about this ?
@@oskar6891 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@jasminekong5463 I don't think i can link things in youtube but if you go to google and type Bouvier flanders extinct .
It was more because of WW1 where the dogs were used as trench dog, carrying messages and pulling ambulance carts.
And after WW2 they were very few of them left its thanks to dedicated breeders back then or we wouldn't have this breed anymore.
All she said is applicable to the South African bred Boerboel. A huge, mascular dog with a lovely personality, that has no idea of how big and strong they are. Excellent guard dogs and wonderful with pets and children.
Stay tuned for a video coming up 😉
@@GirlWithTheDogs Thank you! I am watching your channel from South Africa. My friend has this huge Boerboel , about 2 years old called Duke. He has the softest heart, but looks scary to strangers!
My friend had a Bouvier, a blonde variety, and when all us young parents would go to the park with Rusty (the Bouvier), he would herd all the toddlers by running around the 5 - 7 kids pushing their behinds with his snout and using the side of his body to make she none of the kids would get lost lol! It was hilarious to see him herd the toddlers, and the toddlers laughed and giggled, because it was just play to them. Poor Rusty was exhausted at the end of the day. They are very compassionate and loving dogs who want to be with their families.
Finally, had bouviers all my life and are the greatest dogs ever. Cheers!
Oakley is a sweety, and acts like a curious puppy. So cute. Not a pup for a novice owner.
Bouviers act like curious puppies until they die. And while the average age is 10-12, most of ours got to 14-16.
And even at that age, the body may no longer be as willing, but their mind and behavior stays the same.
I loved our Bouvier de Flanders Bear. Because she was oversize for a female, the breeder gave our family a deal. She was an amazing family dog.
Hi 👋
How are you doing Pamela
I love seeing all the different breeds, and mixed breeds, who come to Vanessa for makeovers.
Yes! I squealed when I saw the Bouvier being presented today! I grew up with one and it was the most sweet and good natured dog who wants to knock you down without realizing what it's doing. The memories hit me like it was yesterday! Mine lived to be 13.
Well, you'll always have my heart with a Bouvier. I've been with them since the mid 80's. I groomed them for show and pet grooms too. I whelped litters and hand raised them. You did a beautiful job.
I had a friend with a Bouv many years ago. Rosie was a working dog and accompanied my friend into bad neighborhoods for protection when he had to pick up medical specimens for transport. Rosie wore a spiked collar when she was working, and you didn't mess with her then. Once that collar came off and she wasn't in protect-mode, she was the sweetest dog you'd ever meet. She'd come around to every staff at the job for pets, then move on to the next person for more pets.
I remember a dog like this. I give him pets and he returns with the greatest smile on his face.
I love the tap dancers. And your technique to dealing with them shows that grooming isn't all strength and agility, it can be about mind over matter. 🧘🧘♀🧘♂
I grew up with Bouviers, and now have one of my very own. She just turned two, and like you said, is still very much a puppy inside! It made me very happy to see you working with Oakley today, and he is such a good, gorgeous boy! I agreed with everything you said about Bouvs in this episode; you know them well!
What an amazingly beautiful floofer!
Customer came into knit shop where I worked part time, then brought her 4 mo old FlanDoodle in to meet us. Instant love! We got to see him grow up from 45 lbs of puppy to 115 lbs of well behaved, nicely socialized therapy dog (owner had a Standard Poodle who was also a therapy dog.) Rocco is only the second dog I’ve met that I’d love to have one exactly like! The other one was a Siberian Husky, equally well trained.
I love the random things she says, like the tsunami in the kitchen after a drink of water! 😂
My first dog was a Bouvier and she was a the very best dog a person could ask for. Always close by, always ready to go, a guard dog extraordinaire and more than anything so loving and sweet.
Over here in Flanders (and most of Europe), couping/docking ears and tails has been illegal for quite some years now and you'll rarely see any that still look like this. Modern Bouviers in Europe have small floppy ears (their natural ears don't get all that much larger than this ones were docked as) and their tails are similar to that of a Golden Retriever, plumed and curved up.
I've had Bouviers most my life and they are fantastic dogs. One of the few breeds so smart you can often observe them and see they are just standing there, looking around, observing their surroundings and thinking about what to do next.
They are super intelligent, loyal to extremes and like Vanessa said, no clue how strong they are.
Most of the ones my family and I had got to 14-16 years old.
They are cowdogs, but a good chunk of their existence hasn't been in herding cattle, but drawing milk carts and doing other actual labor, which is probably why they are built like a brick house and ridiculously strong.
The reason their tails used to be docked was to make it easier to draw carts. This part of their classic job is part of why they are so ridiculously strong and have energy for days.
If you ever get one, start going to puppy school ASAP and for your and the dogs sake, don't stop going until they are at least two years old.
And yeah, that white spot on their chest, that's the breeds signature. There's some that have some white in their beard and on their tails too.
That is interesting about the cart pulling.
He definitely looked like he was up for that level of work.
Thank you for the info.
These dogs are absolute blast to be around when they are young!! And you are right about how strong they are. Unbelievably strong.
Many years ago when I was a kid, my family stayed at a Bed and Breakfast on Cape Cod. The family that owned the place had a huge Bouvier. It looked more bear than dog, and it was so incredibly friendly and it definitely didn't know it's own size, because it would jump on me, slobbering me with kisses when we'd come into the house. I can't recall how old I was, but that dog would put it's legs on my shoulders and it towered over me. Such a memorable experience and such a sweetheart.
His little piece of great hair on the front of his beard makes him look extra adorable🐶🐾😍
What a handsome doggy. So cute and very good for the groom
When I worked at a doggy daycare there was one Bouvier that came in a couple times a year. Seriously one of my favorite pups I ever met. She was such a goof and I looked a bit like her mom so she would do the happy dance when I would come back and see her. You know when there is a dog you just connect with in your souls. That was her, such a precious lady. I will miss her all my days. ❤
Opposite paw trick: Total pro move!
Opposite paw trick! So clever!
His people have done a really good socializing him . I applaud them !
😂 He's a big muscle dog. What a sweet handsome boy.
Big, strong, loving doggie 😍
Such a terrific outcome for the fundraiser. And Oakley looked top notch in his after pictures. He's a giant hunk of a dog & cute to boot. ♡
Well done on the donations for the Niagara Dog Rescue!
The Bouvier was a stunning dog!
You are a wonderful person Vanessa
Opposite paw trick is like a reversed psychology 😂😂😂 loved it!
Aww, he looked so sad when Vanessa started washing his face. His eyes said please no, I actually like having a stinky face 🤣🤣
What a sweetheart, I love big doggies. So often they have the biggest hearts as well.
Vanessa, you are an absolute gem!! You’ve taken your love for animals and your talent of making animals look amazing so they can find their FurrEver home. It is such a breath of fresh air to see a truly authentic person doing what they love to do and doesn’t have any ulterior motive. You truly do have the animals as your first priority. That is why everyone loves you and why you your channels have blown through the YT ceiling! Thank you for being one of the only genuine people on social media!!! Much love from Oklahoma 🫶🏻🐾🫶🏻🐾🫶🏻🐾
He was sooooo cute doing circles in that tiny room with his leash whipping around 😂😂😂😂
That is one beautiful dog. ❤️❤️❤️
Omg, I just wanna hug him! He looks wonderful. Clearly the camera man likes him too.
HE IS SO HANDSOME!!!! I have never seen this breed before, I feel like he would be fun and a gentleman!!!! THAT BEARD!!!
I grew up with Bouviers! I loved them. Friends who came over in elementary/middle school for the first time would usually ask 'is that a bear??' As I contemplate bringing a big dog into my life again, it's definitely in my top 3 breed choices...dirty beard and all, lol.
I had a bouvier, lost him 2 years ago. Still miss him very much he was the best guard and family dog i ever had ❤.
Real sturdy lad. Glad he was friendly! 🐱
Never heard of this breed. He is stunning. What a handsome and STOUT dog.
My grandfather had one named George. He was a wonderful and gentle dog. He would allow my grandfather to groom him. They had the sweetest relationship.
What a beautiful dog! I always love the tap dancing!
A good video would be if you flip it around and have someone groom you. You play a dog, get trimmed and bathed. What an amazing video 😍😍😍 all 4'10 of a drop dead gorgeous 10 🥰🥰
I had a Bouvier des Flandres for 11 years. Best dog ever. I have fallen in love with the breed and dream to be able to have another one one day.
He is a beautiful boy.
Growing up n the late 80s my family had a bouvier-german shepard-doberman mix (his mother was pure bouvier and something of an escape artist, which is how the puppies happened). He was the sweetest, kindest, most loving dog I have ever met. He was also obsessed with guarding and herding us kids which wasn't always great for other people, but we loved him. Unfortunately he got sick when he was pretty young still and had to be put down.
My neighbor just had a litter bouvier des flandres pups. His male is fawn, and his female is bridle grey and black. They are some of the best dogs I know ❤️
I agree with the camera guy. The opposite paw trick is legendary
my favorite dog breed, LOVE them. really miss mine, he would herd me into the kitchen with his paws lol he also punched a hole in the wall freaking out about the water the first time i bathed him 😆
Wow lol! Yes they are strong!
My parents used to take me to local dog shows when I was a kid. I'll never forget meeting a Bouvier who gave me a long, sweet hug with its giant head rested on my shoulder. What I didn't know (but my parents saw) was that another dog had come up behind me, and the Bouvier started fiercely barking and growling to "protect" me. As soon as the dog left, it went right back to resting its head on my shoulder and giving the best snuggles I've ever had. ❤
One of my mother's friends had a Bouvier. He was such a goofy love bug, and the next door neighbor was terrified of him for reasons only known to her.
we have had 2 Bouviers, they are amazing, sweet, loyal, calm and intelligent dogs❤ RIP Centa and Djedda😢
Side note. I realized that after I wash my hair and put it up un my cotton turban-like drying towel, your channel pops into my head. It’s my happy hoodie! Sometimes I even need to fix my ears.
Cute!:)
He looks handsome you always do such a wonderful job with the dogs.
And a huge huge huge congratulations on raising that money for helping animals that is great. And I'm sure by the time that this video comes on you will have surpassed 20,000 for sure.❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🐾🐾🐾🐾🐕🐕🐕🐕
The announcement at the end was amazing. I'm sure they appreciate your efforts and your fans and followers. $19,000+ WOW!!
I've never heard of this breed and yes it reminded me of a Giant Schnauzer and a pit bull?? Looks like a hyper dog or just energetic. And then to show his thanks he left a little present at the end😊😊Dogs are the best!!!
Bouviers with their full "show" type coat don't look like Giant Schnauzers. Many owners who want to keep them cool in summer and have less to brush get them trimmed shorter, like this guy. We had two and they're actually not a hyper dog at all. They're very loyal, loving and playful.😊
my best guy was a bouvier. loved him and still weep for him from time to time. he died 20 yrs ago.
OMG I was wondering if you would ever have the chance to groom a bouvier! Grew up with bouviers, they're such fantastic dogs, thank you for giving some visibility to the breed!
I have watched this video twice now, and I love it! We had to put down our almost 10 year old Bouvier, Leo (short for Leonidas), back in March. Seeing Oakley reminds me of Leo, from the tap dancing to the tail wiggles😂. This is a truly an incredible breed, from their unique personalities to their teddy bear qualities, and I am so lucky that I got to have one in my life. Thank you so much for this video and your channel in general, it never fails to make me smile!
I saw a lady walking two of these and stopped to tell her I had never seen a Bouvier in person. She was shocked I knew what they were. Beautiful dogs but too big for me!
What a beautiful and sweet dog!❤Congratulations on all the donations you raised and thank you donors!❤❤❤
I have my third Bouv. They are magnificent, smart, loyal and affectionate. My 5 year old girl still plays with her stuffies. 💜💜💜💜💜
My funniest dog show moment occurred many years ago and I still think about it and chuckle. There was the obedience ring where a big Bouvier suitably named "Moose," was going through his paces with his owner. On the outside of the ring a person walked by with a beautiful Alaskan Malamute who was truly stunning. Moose spotted her, fell in love, and left the obedience ring to follow her. Moose's owner was not immediately aware that she was alone until people pointed out that her dog that she had left at a stay had decided to go flirt. She ran out of the ring to grab Moose who was flirting with an annoyed Malamute and her equally annoyed handler. That's when I fell in love with the breed, although I've never had one. They are warm and friendly dogs, but definitely a handful. Seeing Oakley reminded me of that story and I thought it was hilarious enough to share. Moose's owner, by the way, turned shades of red that I'm pretty sure I have never seen in a human being ever since. 🤣😁
what a sweet dog! And Yay for the fundraiser too!
He's built like a tank! All that mass of finely tuned muscle. Formidable doggo
We all need someone the way he gasses you up the way he does! You're both amazing! What a cute rooper!
Bouvier are great dogs, as she said they are incredibly strong, but very nimble despite their weight and size. Great with the family and children.
That face!!!❤❤❤
Congrats on the fund raising!! 🎉
Oh thank you so much for filming a Bouvier groom! I really enjoyed goofy Oakley. What a gorgeous floof. Everything you said is spot on, especially the tsunami after a drink. They absorb water then love to share it with you. My Ludo, fawn colored, weighs 120lbs. Now 5 years old, he's been professionally groomed since 4 months. He adores his groomer, and yes, doesn't like his paws done. 🤣
Stunning boi 💖 ❤ We love you and thank you!!!!!!
Look I know nothing but in 1989 I met a bouvier in West Germany. Maggie (short for Magnificent....something something...pure bread child of champion something 🤷♂🤷♂), was a big black muscle-bound 2 year old. She was part of an American family (Mike, Debbie and Josh), who looked after me as a 19 year old student. They were my amazing family, in Germany. I love them dearly.
I called her The Bear!
They told me her mother (best of breed somewhere), could leap 8 ft fences. Maggie used to go to their 1ft German fence and say to herself "nope, stuck here"!
They did NOT want her to discover jumping 😂😂
She used to pull the 8 yr old Josh around using the figure-of-8 rubber thingy like he was a doll......all the time to "Maggie, stop, no, stop". Not a chance he wanted her to stop.
I am not sure, but I think Belgian breeds have an extra zing in their butts.
Congratulations on your event and all of the dogs that will benefit!
Congratulations on the fundraiser! Well done! 🎉👏👏👏
I've only had one dog in six decades of dogs, not like me. That dog was a Bouvier. It was terrifying. He backed ne into a corner and wouldn't stop barking and lunging at me. I tried being calm. Tried being assertive. Tried bribing with treats. Finally, out of options, I turned my back to him, and stood facing a wall. Remember, I was in a corner with no escape route. That worked, after a few minutes he lost interest and moved away. I was able to dash into a room and close the door until his owner (a guest of my room mate, they were both out having dinner) came home.
The dog loved everyone but me. I think it was because I was out of town when he arrived, and only showed up after he had been in the house long enough to feel it was his to defend.
These are wonderful dogs, but insanely powerful and smart, and I would only suggest as a dog for an experienced owner, not a first timer.
Also, he left what I can only describe as a pool of water on the floor after drinking. It required a full size bath towel to mop up after him, and he empitied the large water bowl each time.
Yikes. Sounds like his owner didn't quite have it all together when it came to training/managing his behavior.
@@stellangios She was 5' 2" and actually she did a pretty decent job, she took him on long jogs and hikes at least once a day, she had good voice control of him, but when she wasn't there with him, he took full advantage of that. He halfheartedly listened to others, it took physically going and getting him, he listened well to his owner, and he wanted me out of the picture lol.
I wasn't afraid of him. I think that bothered him more, and when I turned my back to him, he lost interest in me.
You really have no idea what a guard dog is do you?
@@IanMacLeansnv Why don't you explain it for me, then? Or maybe read again my comment.
He was guarding me from being in my own house. That's not ok.
I loved the book "A Dog of Flanders" as a child. Beautiful Bouvier!
it's crazy cos you're so small and you can handle all this! what a cute dog, never knew about the breed. and congrats on the fundraiser. i know you'll get more support in the future too. thanks for sharing
Well socialized Bouviers are really easy to handle. You should take them to puppy class as soon as you can and not stop going to dog school once a week for at least two years.
That's why they are often used as police and military dogs. They are hella smart and when trained, very easy to handle. And their energy allows them to be at attention and walk on a leash all day without even getting tired.
He is gorgeous! Great job on his grooming.
Oakley is so dang cute ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Well done Vanessa, you're so patient and loving.
My cousin had two bouviers. They both thought they were lap dogs, and were so sweet and cuddly, and loved hugs and kisses. A great, lovely breed.
Neat to see a Bouvier; I've only seen photos. Good to learn something about them.
Many congratulations on your subscribers raising so much for the rescue!
Oh my word! I think I’m in love❤
Congratulations on raising almost $20,000 !! You are truly a HUGE Blessing to Animals in need in your area TY
I just love this dog.
