He keeps turning because he knows where the camera is and he wants his best side filmed.
A diva. 😂🤣
😂😂😂
Exactly what I thought too.
Yeah. He keeps looking at the camera whenever he can.
He knows he's cute 😉
Vet here - teeth are one of the top causes of shortening the lifespan of a dog. A good teeth clean at the vet and potentially a few extractions, even on a 14yr old, are worthwhile to eliminate the pain and make them comfortable in their twilight years.
Idk where you are in the world, But when I had an elderly maltese with bad teeth I couldn't get a vet to sedated him for the clean. He was healthy outside the teeth. I finally did when I lived in Korea. But it was hard to find in the us
I could not agree more. I adopted my dog when she was 13. She had a mouthful of rotten teeth. She had all of them removed along with a complete check up and blood work 10 days after her adoption. She gets a shot of Librela monthly for her luxated patellas which are beyond repair. She's like a young dog now and so much livelier.
Hey reminds me of us humans teeth are vital folks don't relaize how connective our teeth are to rest of us especially to our brains & heart so my point is regardless if you are a human or animal take care of your teeth if you want help with expanding your life...
I had to get my elderly greyhound's teeth completely removed and I was worried about her adapting but she's a thousand times better now. Not only did her breath smell better but she started eating more and her overall vitality improved dramatically. It was expensive but the best decision I ever made. I am certain it prolonged her life.
This is absolutely correct.
If cost is a concern see if your local Humane Society does discounted dental cleaning.
I don’t understand why people get a dog that needs brushed several times a week, then neglect them. To add insult to injury, they get another one that needs the same type of care.
@theashwoodfaerie some dogs don't like to be brushed, but that's still no excuse to neglect a dog that NEEDS brushing
@@theashwoodfaerie you are on every comment defending the owners. But lets me be real, out of all the dogs vannessa has helped, this one is just point straight neglected! If you watch the video again, they have been to previous groomers where he also was matted, so it not a one time occurance. So his fur has been shaven down more than once, when do owner then learn, start brushing and getting a grooming routine in. No instead these owners let their older dog get matted again and get a puppy instead. It doesnt matter if the dog isnt groom trained, it shows the owners CLEARLY do not care about groom training him or brush training him as they got another puppy instead. That they will probably neglect too!
Exactly, and the teeth, poor dog :(
To everyone being super judgmental how about you take a moment and consider that the dog isn’t being neglected because they took the time to go to a groomer in the first place! With Snowy being an older dog it can become uncomfortable to be brushed because their skin is more sensitive. Grooming can be more of a challenge because they have arthritis from old age and don’t want to be touched in certain ways so more frequent grooming is something the owners may not want to do. I’m sure those that want to will still say the owners are being neglectful but take a moment to consider the possibility that it isn’t the case.
@@theashwoodfaerie my poodle dislikes being brushed. that doesn't mean I don't brush him. if he needs it he needs it. don't neglect your dog just because they have to be uncomfortable slightly. also the more you brush, the less uncomfortable it would be because less tangles and it goes much faster
I hate to say this, but geez people, if you can't even care for the dog you have why would you get another one with the exact same grooming needs?

What an absolutely precious lightly toasted marshmallow, I have NEVER seen a puppy this calm and chill.
toasted marshmallow,' ...🤭🤗🤩Love that description!
She is so so sweet. Unreal.
I’ve never seen any puppy be so still while being handled. Sweet dogs.
That is a sign of a good owner, and a great start at home. I have raised my two shih tzu since they were 10 weeks old and when they went for their first groom around four months old, they were very comfortable, cooperative and well behaved. I groomed them at home and touched them constantly while eating, playing, resting… massaging their little paws and stroking the fur around their faces. Touching the insides of their ears and by their tushies. They never flinched even when getting their sanitary areas groomed. My vet loves them too because they sit still during the whole exam and are very polite when he offers a treat.
@@Thi-Nguyen My dogs(2 maltese) are more likely to give me attitude than any vet or groomer
It’s a sign of a good groomer, as when Winter got scared Vanessa stopped, let her smell and slowed down. Choosing a great groomer, who is attuned to how the dog is feeling, makes all the difference.
@@Thi-Nguyen It’s not because of a good owner as the dog came in super matted and it sounded like the dog gets matted regularly but the owner wants to groom these dogs themselves. The teeth are rotten and I do know that their teeth aren’t supposed to be written I also have dogs and cats and none of them have rotten teeth. That’s not the sign of a good owner at all.
@@KittenBowl1
I was thinking the same thing. Normally I try to give some grace to owners, especially given the type of weather, but brushing goes a long way to mitigate matting. And letting Snowy’s teeth get so rotten? They shouldn’t have gotten a puppy until they’d taken care of Snowy’s health concerns first. No matter how adorable Winter is. It makes me concerned for how both will be cared for in the future.
I know we generally try to avoid owner shaming, but I hope the owners take better care of both of them from now on... I understand not being able to afford a groom, but they afforded a new puppy while their poor old boy got more and more matted for 6 months -- and then evidence suggests he was badly matted then too, indictive of a pattern. I'm very sad for Snowy.
Even the teeth are rotten and the nails are too long. The dog is neglected. That’s a fact
Rotten teeth in a 14 year old dog is not uncommon@@mellia.6946
Some pretty unfair assumptions considering they've tried another groomer before, and ran into problems, and they've gotten surgery for the dog as well. If it was a truly neglected dog he wouldn't even be in this video. The owners are likely ignorant at worst of the severity of the matting and tooth decay.
I completely agree!
@@mellia.6946But it’s okay because they have their new puppy 😒 I hate dog owners like this. I have a Maltese, and he’s brushed all the time and nails trimmed teats cleaned etc. There’s no excuse it’s just abuse via neglect
Getting another dog doesn't make sense when the owner's current dog seems neglected due to matted hair.
Rotten teeth, matted & dirty fur 😢 I understand that the owners may struggle financially and be unable to look after him properly. But, in that case, why would they bring a new puppy into the household?
Especially a new puppy that will have the exact same high maintenance needs of the one they already have and can't seem to manage (and may have cost thousands of dollars to purchase)!!
Right? It’s so sad and disgusting. Terrible owners.
@@wolfc8755how do you know they bought it?
@@TDoubleYu… it doesn’t matter… they still didn’t have to get another puppy of any kind!
They had no right to obtain (buy, steal, trade, find whatever) another dog to abuse. Neglect is abuse. @@TDoubleYu
“Are you playing in the fur?”
*Winter looks away guilty* 😭😭❤️❤️❤️❤️
Seems irresponsible to have a dog in such poor condition and then get another one.
Have you met most small dog owners?
As a small dog mom of 4 and 1 medium. I agree that most of them just want a lap dog they can move around with out hassle and don't consider their health and grooming needs as long as they look cute enough. Also since a lot of small breeds can be snippy those barely not abusive owners just ignore their teeth because they don't want to get bit and it's too hard 🙄 and since they have small mouths and are low to the ground they don't see the teeth unless checking them most of the time so out of sight out of mind. All mine are rescues so 3 out of 5 were older and not desensitized to grooming and sanitary matters. The other 2 were tossed out of a car at 6 weeks so was able to work on them from the start. Took over a year to get the other 3 to be mostly calm when I brush their teeth. They have health issues so I don't stress them too much so brushing 3 times a week daily vegan dental chews (work better than greenies I do not feed them a vegan diet) and a dab of liver flavored safe to swallow tooth paste on chewy textured treat on no brush days to kinda have them brush their own teeth lol.
And they are still not ok with nail trims I need to hold them in the air with face pressed into my chest while my sister clips them as quickly as she safely can.
My mini pig is even better with letting me brush his teeth, scrape his tusks and dremel his hooves between trims. If people can devote the time energy and patience to properly take care of their animals they should just get cacti instead
Poor Snow 😢 he was such a good boy considering he had a bad experience at his last groom. I hope the owner starts to try and manage his fur so he doesn’t keep getting so matted
Probably won't
Getting their paws shaved out has to be the weirdest feeling, but then the most awesome feeling when they walk on them for the first time. Like, "I can actually feel the floor now!"
My paws work!
Like when you cut your nails after they get too long
@@legendofayda😉👍🏽👌🏽
I cannot imagine the irritation of having mats between my toes. It must be weird to have them removed, then lovely. ❤
I imagine it feels like pulling out a piece of sock fluff that's been stuck between your toes all day, but better😂
"Heavily matted sanitary area" is a phrase I hope never describes me
😂
Okay now I can't stop laughing. And then there's the image...
😅😅😅
I'm out of breath
That's the name of my experimental metal band
I’m so sad at the condition Snow was in. Poor old man, he deserves better.❤️🇨🇦🐾
Me too. Poor little boy, I hope it's not because he's old and the puppy is new. He did have surgery though, sadly his teeth are rotten and they should be addressed, think of the pain in his mouth. I am taking care of a 12 yr old toy poodle and she has had really good care all her life and by now has very few teeth left, but they are good.
I’ve had many dogs of several different breeds over the years (I’m 72 and have had dogs almost continuously since I was 20), including several coated breeds. I once bought a Maltese puppy and absolutely adored her. However,after about six weeks, I decided I did not have what it takes to keep that kind of a coat groomed properly. I contacted the breeder and explained the situation to her. She was a reputable breeder and immediately said that of course she would take the puppy back and even refunded the entire amount I paid for the puppy.
My concern with Snow and Winter is that the owners have said they want to continue grooming these dogs themselves, yet they have already shown their complete inability to groom based on the condition of poor little Snow’s matted and filthy coat and rotting teeth. I have no problem if they attempt to keep them groomed and definitely hope they can do so, but I only hope the owners recognize that if they are unable to keep them well groomed they need to commit to the reality that they need to take these adorable pups to a groomer ON A REGULAR BASIS - and BEFORE they become so matted they have to be shaved down before they can even be bathed. Another commenter noted that she groomed her Maltese while she watched TV - perfect! Brushing them every night (or at least a couple times a week) and bathing them on a regular basis will keep them from looking like poor Snow’s condition when he came in. If not, then commit to a groomer every couple of months BEFORE they become so matted they have to be shaved down.
Not trying to be a Negative Nellie here, but why have these beautiful coated dogs if you continually have to have them shaved down? As I mentioned earlier, I’ve had other coated dogs after my attempt with the Maltese, breeding, showing and grooming multiples of Yorkies and Silky Terriers at a time, and it takes a LOT of work and a LOT of commitment! I truly hope the owners of these two beautiful little dogs will make that commitment.
Neglect is abuse regardless of the age or financial situation of the owner. The condition of Snow is despicable, criminal. Sickening that the owners then presumed to get another Maltese. Sorry, but every owner can afford a brush and some dog shampoo. No excuse for the lazy, cheap, neglectful owner of these two poor dogs.
STOP with the shaming!
@@carlakenyon6073 No
@@carlakenyon6073we can stop once they learn how to properly care for these dogs.
It's no wonder grooming is so expensive when people can't simply just give their own dog a regular brush
Sometimes can't also can mean fully unable to. My wrists can't do too much grooming anymore, but my extremely grooming adverse cat at least tolerates being scissored. Why yes, his coat IS a disaster.
@theashwoodfaerie Then go and get your dog shaved regulary or do it at home. Theres always a solution. Letting a dog get matted is not one of them..
I really like that you always, ALWAYS give the dogs' previous groomers the benefit of the doubt. Whenever you're informed about some kind of accident or mishap during previous grooming, you explain why it might have happened and look for clues in the dog's behaviour. People are (inderstandably) super protective of their pets and often quick to assume that the groomer made a mistake or wasn't experienced enough to take appointments, but sometimes accidents are just really hard to avoid. These are living, breathing creatures, prone to moving around and bouts of anxiety in a strange, noisy environment, accidents happen even with the most experienced groomers.
I will never understand how some owners let their dogs and/or cats coat get so unbelievably matted. I'm talking about neglect where it's been like that for a while, and not the coat getting matted for other reasons. Like they got wet and ran through the woods or a short faced cat being unable to clean itself etc. Which then, of course, you get them de-matted as soon as you can. That's why it's important to do research and get a breed of dog that's coat suits your lifestyle. Don't be getting a Doodle because you want "a cute fluffy dog" yet you don't want to do the upkeep.
I’m even more worried about his rotten teeth.
Agreed. This is neglect. And they have the audacity to get a puppy of the same breed.
Yeah we know the puppy is going to be in the same state eventually
Do you feel like these neglect grooms weigh heavily on you? I don’t know if there’s enough conversation around compassion fatigue with groomers.
My vet talking about the inevitable fate of many 'rescue' dogs- I will never forget the pain in her eyes.....
“You’re ruining your sister spa experience”!😂 Vanessa you crack me up!
😂😂
That puppy had her thinking face on during the groom, she was clearly watching and learning and being just so good. I hope they get a good warm jacket for older bro, that must be a cold winter for him like that. I also hope they get his teeth done, it can perk them up so much.
Unlikely since most vets won't risk putting a dog that old under anesthesia unless it's absolutely necessary (like the procedure on the lump he had on his rear end). It's just too high risk.
@@MDev1997 Sad, but true. I have two mini doxies, 15 &14 that the vet won't do dentals on anymore for that exact reason. We use dental chews and I will take a little tooth brush and do what I can.
I have senior dogs and the vet refuses to do a dental for the same reason.
I had a last dentals done when my dear departed Yorkster was 12 or 13 (rescue), so maybe that is about the cut off, but they do some diagnostics first to be sure. It did perk him up as usual, so I was glad. He passed at 15 or 16 and they'd gotten pretty bad again despite my efforts. He still loved to eat, tho, had the big treat of a hot dog the day before he passed. 😅 He was pretty active right up until breathing issues struck, real quick like. I was not at work as I had feared, so I could hold him. 😌
That’s what I was thinking too. She was watching every little thing like she was learning how to do it. She wants to grow up and be a groomer.
I’m sad for the younger pup. Hopefully his family will take care of him better than his older sibling. 😢
They won't.
Proud dog mom here!! I prepared my 3month old pup by combing her during play time and bathing her prior to her first grooming appt. She did incredibly well even the groomer was impressed. We bathe her every 3 weeks in between grooming and she hops right in the tub herself and lets us blow dry her. Ive also been brushing her teeth since she was 3 months. She’s a pro at all things grooming at a year and a half now 😊😊😊
Cool!!😊😊
That's awesome! My dog is a rescue and brushing his teeth or clipping his nails is a struggle. I get it done, but it's not a fun experience for either of us. Nails are usually just one paw per day over a few days.
That's amazing that you persevere. You must be a great dog owner
You're such a good momma! You should be proud! ❤
I had a Maltese years ago, Ms. Lily & she was a lot of upkeep. They really need to be combed daily, so we had a routine of watching the news while I combed her out. I was working at the time & it was hard to keep away the tangles with her cotton candy hair! But she was a wonderful dog, but anyone visiting with a pet was given the cold shoulder, LOL. But oh my goodness, seeing Winter makes me want another Maltese!!
I have two maltese boys (I love them so much) I get them groomed every 6-7 weeks. I keep them in a puppy cut, all the super long draping fur is crazy.
@@grbenway
Me too. Besides, they look adorable in a puppy cut.
So much easier to have short-haired dogs! What on earth did they breed these ridiculous dogs for? Sorry, they're cute but I don't think nature intended for dogs to require so much salon time. 😄
@@kittywilhite9583I’ve had dogs all my life and most were heavy shedders, like German shepherds, Rottweilers, and labs. But they were easy to groom. Just needed a daily brushing, a bath only when dirty, and a quick blow dry. My Toller would get some matting behind her ears but I used scissors and cut them out. No salon time needed. There was no way I was going to get a dog which needed salon time, no matter how adorable. I like my dogs simple. lol.
@@jemsmom6922what's a toller?
So endearing, the way she makes eye contact to make sure you're a trustworthy human
"Look me in the eyes when you shave my fur." 🙃
@@MagnakayViolet This is PERSONAL!
The troube with arthritis is it makes standing still for any amount of time almost impossible. Poor litle Snowy, he was so good all things considered. Thank you for being so kind and patient with him. 😊
I have it too, I have to lift my legs constantly
@@bridgetking4553 ❤
I wish people would take care of their pets teeth, it's so important to their overall health.
That poor older dog. And he was such a lovely temperament. And the baby did so well
I hope Snowy’s humans buy him a beautiful new sweater to keep those old bones nice and warm.
I'm trying not to be ugly but I really don't understand why Winter's parents let him go so long without grooming.? That matting had to be painful for him. One of the things about being a good pet parent is knowing what your dog needs and doing whatever they need. There is no excuse for going several months before grooming and visiting the Vet concerning his teeth would be in order. He's a helpless animal that depends on his parents to keep him from being matted and pain-free. Thank you for the care you gave him Vanessa
@@theashwoodfaerie If they could not take care of their senior dog by having him groomed or his teeth cared for, why did they get a puppy? In my opinion, You take care of your pets like they are a member of your family. If you cannot afford to fulfill the basic needs of your pet, then perhaps you shouldn't have one. Vanessa has said countless times on her channel how painful it is for a dog to have matted hair. She also encourages people to research the breed of dog they are thinking of getting so that they aren't surprised that they might need to be groomed and brushed regularly. Winter seemed to be a sweet dog and deserves better treatment.
@@Littlewildone0oh stfu. You don’t know and are making assumptions. Go save the dog if you care.
I believe you meant Snow, who is the senior dog. Winter is the young female puppy.
@@Littlewildone0we don't know their situation, maybe the puppy isn't even theirs, or they had to take her in, is so easy to judgy on the Internet with absolutely 0 informstion about the owners.
@@bluester7177 I know neglect when I see it. If they had to take the puppy to remove it from a harmful situation, then taking it to an animal shelter would be the ethical thing to do. I know life happens and people lose work or get sick but I remain to see thar neglecting an animal is the answer.
All the maltese - pure and mixed that I have ever come across where fiesty so this was a complete shock, both the dogs where super gentle and well behaved especially the senior doggo, especially after having such a bad experience with the blade in his prev groom- I thought he would react negatively but not a bark or a bite from him. Poor doggo. I hope he feels better now ! And the puppy was so gentle too. I hope she stays that way!
I find this video sad. I don't understand why someone that isn't keeping up with grooming and dentals would get a puppy. I totally can understand shit happens. Hopefully the shit happens doesn't become a times 2
Commenters... some of this criticism is justified. I had a Bichon Frise (relative of the Maltese) for his whole 15 year life and they are expensive. They have hair that mats. You know when you buy one that their hair does NOT SHED and it's very fine and soft, perfect for matting. Also, any vet will tell you you're going to have teeth problems. Plus you can pretty much count on luxating patellas. That adds up to thousands and grooming is the least of these. Plus she bought another one! I don't understand it.
No it’s not! You don’t know their story
I get sad when I see dogs in these conditions, but I’m glad there’s people like you to help them. Poor puppies for living in half decent conditions, they enjoyed the spa day immensely for more reasons then you know!
Winter is just so calm! She says "I don't know what's going on, but it's fine." So adorable!
Vanessa "I can make you look so cute,"
Winter "Silly human, I already look so cute."
😁
Winter was so good! Cuteness overload! Poor Snow, how you treated him , with such kindness and gentleness is why I watch your videos. You are the way all groomers should be. Thank you for all you do for the furry babies!
These adorable pups came in looking like dirty snowbanks & came out looking like fresh fallen snowdrifts! Winter is going to be one amazing dog! 💕💕
I hope Snowy & Winter's owner brings them back to you regularly. Maltese needs to be frequently and regularly combed. We self groom as well and keep ours hair short, #5 on the back and #7 on the tummy, so they can be dogs and play in the dirt. You are so wonderfully sensitive and considerate to them, keeping the experience positive for them. Love your work and love you channel.
They both did wonderful! For a senior dog that wasn't a lot of fussing (at least on camera) given all the matting. The puppy was a champ, just taking the new experience in stride and just well behaved for being in a completely new environment. Both of the dogs looked great after their groom.
the unanswerable question: how does Vanessa get any grooming done when she has to do so to all these cute lil huggable monsters :)
My grandma's last dog looked like a Maltese/Shih Tsu mix, though he was a dumpster dog so we have no real idea what he was. Seeing Snow was like time travelling to being 10 years old again and playing tug of war with that tiny, sassy mop of a boy who would only play with tube socks.
I'm so glad these floofs were able to see you today and feel their best! (And, thank you for the unexpected nostalgia moment.)
"dumpster dog" 💀
@Creampuf1977 lmfaooo she really found him next to the dumpster outside Kroger though
It is so aggravating to see owners that aren't even taking care of the dog they already have, get a new puppy.
They didn't take care of the older one. They definitely didn't need to get a puppy
The look on Winter’s face: what in the world is this woman doing to me? She was an absolute champ!
With Snow's coat clipped back that far, he'll be mat-free for longer, easier for his humans to bathe, and he'll be able to keep up with his baby sister a bit better. Pulling is painful; that'll slow him down. That, and he should just feel a whole lot better overall~
Winter was SUCH a good girl!! So well-behaved; a lil squeaky from nerves, but she's fine and she figured that out~
I don’t think his humans bathe or brush him
@@Snakesnarlnot your concern
@@carlakenyon6073 yeah I bet when you see children that are potentially being neglected you say, “not my problem”
I know we’re not supposed to judge, but can we have a serious discussion about being neglectful of a senior dog’s health and grooming and thinking it’s okay to get another dog? If the owner can’t keep up with grooming a dog, that requires frequent grooming, or taking care of his teeth, in what mind-space is adopting a puppy an okay thing to do? I’m going to assume these are rescues, because thinking that they’ve spent about $1200 on a new puppy while neglecting the elderly dog will just upset me more.
I should just be thankful that they are finally being taken care off, and that other than the teeth Snow doesn’t look too bad.
I always feel so bad for dogs who end up having bad teeth, since in most cases it can be prevented.
Watching this is bittersweet. My wonderful Maltese died in September, and I miss her so much. She was a very good girl, and she would sing with me. We were so attuned, and losing her has been devastating. Thanks for everything you do for dogs and owners, and thank you for featuring the various breeds and mixes.
I am reading your comment and my heart hurts for you. Our dogs are much more than pets. I am sure that you were the best pet parent ever and you gave her a wonderful life I'm certain. Perhaps you could rescue another baby that needs you as much as you need them It's so devastating that we only have them in our lives for such a short time
So sorry Rosemary x
Hug.
I’m so sorry for the loss of your sweet girl. Tears of understanding.
Getting teeth checked/cleaned is so important for dog and cat health. One of adoptee cats had to have all her teeth removed; 75% of her jaw bone in some areas was rotted away. She also had a serious parasitic disease due to how she was kept, which could have contributed to her oral issues, and then she developed pancreatitis. (She’s fine now, happy and playful and affectionate and sassy.)
Isn't little Winter just the sweetest and best customer? Mind you, Snow wasn't the worst by a long chalk. If only they all were as good as these two, eh?
Wow that dog is in ROUGH shape, poor old man! I hope he's feeling a little better, it's wild how quickly things start happening once a dog hits a certain age.
His sister though, what a little pie!!! She reminds me of a sheltie guinea pig I had, who was like a little mannequin. You could do anything to her and she was so tolerant and still.
Even though Snow was a very fidgety, he was still pretty well behaved for you ☺ Winter.... OOOOHHH MYYY GOODNESS! My heart was melting every time she would look at you with that face of hers 🥰 Both looked amazing! I love how you are so generous with your service. It must sure help the owners out so much and the pups end up looking fantastic. Thank you for what you do!
Vanessa you've had a problem with dry hands. I was taught by a dermatologist way back in the 1970s how to treat my hands. He told me "get the greasiest thickest cream you can find, use it as soon as you get out of the shower, while your skin is still hydrated. Slather it into your skin and then wipe off the excess." I've used Eucerin cream since then, whether I'm just out of a shower or just working a bit into my hands at other times. I don't know of you can get it in Canada. It's a 50% oil in water emulsion with no fragrance. In my job working with animals I have to wash my hands a lot, same problem as you, and it's great for my poor hands including the cuticles, part of my bedtime ritual. :)
Bag Balm!! Used by farmers. Green square can
As a dairy farmer that suffered from dry chapped hands in the Spring I found Bag Balm worked miracles too.
I use udder cream cause I already use it on my mini pig and it works so good. Also leaving a dot on a hair splinter for 5 minutes makes it so easy to get the hog hair out of my skin. Also use it on my poor bagel (beagle/bassett) who has developed eczema on his back now that he is an elder statesman of the braying hounds
The only other dog I've seen lift a leg like that wasthe Cavalier King Charles spaniel my Mum rescued when I was a teenager. 'Charlie', the name his original owners gave him, lived to his early teens and developed a heart problem when he was about nine. One of the signs he was having an episode was him lifting his left leg in an awkward way.
The thing with Charlie was that he was a greedy dog, and a smart one, too. He quickly learned that all he had to do when being told off for being naughty was lift his leg as if he were having an episode... the only issue being that he couldn't remember which leg it was he had to lift. My parents and sister, being dog-people, would make a lot of fuss over him regardless. Me, being a cat person, was far more cynical. The best of it was was that Mum also noted he would lift the wrong leg sometimes when being told off. Nevertheless, he wasn't a badly behaved dog generally, and had such a sweet personality even I warmed to him. He plodded on to the ripe old age of sixteen, when a combination of heart issues and a chest infection meant we had to do the kindest thing for him... and he went all that way, lifting the wrong leg!
What a wonderful story! I love how we humans remember them like they were siblings, daughters and sons. And of course they are.
My mom's pom does it too
Having grown up with two Maltese, I totally understand the insane upkeep in grooming they entailed and their feistiness. 😂
Snow was such a good boy the entire time even with being a fidgety 14 year old.
Winter was freaking adorable and was also so good for her first groom! ❤
I am in awe, Winter was exceptionally well behaved for a puppy!
Winter has such a sweet and gentle temperament! What a good girl.
And Snow is such a good boy. I’m sure at his age and with his ailments, grooming time is not something he looks forward to.
I love how much care is given to these animals as individuals.
My dogs have gotten hurt at groomers so it’s wonderful to see. This is the only type of person who should work with animals honestly !
I’m not want to comment on these types of videos because you do a very good job of not calling out the owners, I don’t know the situation, if a dog gets this matted at this size of dog, which is likely not a farm dog I really wish owners would take more proactive approach in their dogs daily grooming. Especially now that he has a four month old puppy is the little one is this matted as well.
I always say I would be pissed off all the time if I was a groomer. There are soo many dogs that's not properly cared for. People get high maintanance dog but don't do the work it takes.. it pisses me off. I love your work. ❤
I have a 16 yo Maltese ShihTzu. He gets groomed every 8-10 weeks. The hair grows fast. But I do believe the owners of this dog have not properly cared for him. My dog has had 3 teeth cleanings but he still has issues but putting him under sedation is becoming dangerous at his age but there is no excuse for rotten teeth.
So the owners couldn’t maintain the grooming of one dog, so they got a second? I’m asking politely.
My parents had a Maltese, she was so sweet. I would bring her in to get groomed whenever she started to get matting by her ears. I saw the notes they had on her, it said, “Very good girl”. She was so adorable when she was done because they would put a bow above each ear. They also let her run around behind the counter after she was done. She’d be so excited when I would come to pick her up, she’d be up on her hind legs. I miss her, sweet little Dolly.
I’m so glad you got to give winter her first groom!!! She is a doll❤❤❤
I would definitely let the owners know about Snow's teeth!
What a terrific time for Winter to be introduced to grooming! She is adorable! They both look great and ready for adventures!
When she tied little bandanas around their necks, they just looked absolutely CUTE like that. She did an excellent job grooming them as always. 😍🥰❤️❤️
I see the same little behaviors in our Maltese 😂 Please tell me you do let the owners know how important it is for Winter’s health to get his teeth taken care of⁉️ Absolutely awesome 👏👏👏👏 Both are precious 🤗
I can't believe that Canadians---who know what Real Winter is like---wait until January to have their elderly dog shaved down so the poor thing has no protection from the bitter cold.
That and the rotten teeth are really bothering me. Poor thing!
So sad that the little one goes to such owners.
Snowy looked mighty fine when you were done with him. With Winter I kept getting those "I can't stand how adorable she is" feelings!
They deserve 2 Gold stars they were very good dogs and the puppy gets a thumb up for acing her first groom! As always you did an amazing job!
The comment section is always such a polar opposite 😅
Love how she is giving the grooms for free as it helps the owner and has started to make the online course. I do think it's a very good idea to learn to groom your own dog if you are able just to help prevent thing getting to bad if you can't get your pet to a groomer.
23:53 The little Puppy's looking at it's sibling as if to say 'What happened to you?'! 😂
Aww I love how well behaved little Winter was! She kept looking at you for guidance! (Side note: Winter is the name of my first born niece! ❤)
The older dog must have felt so much better after the matting was done! I love how she is always patient with the pups she grooms.
They came out beautiful. That puppy is adorable and such a good dog. The older dog turned out nice. Hope the owners maintain them.
I’m sure they won’t considering the state they came in in
We don't know the story @@Snakesnarl
That tiny face in the Happy Hoodie omg 😊
Such a sweet pair. Considering Snowy's age, potential health complications, and previous grooming experience, I'd say he was great here, but then I'm also just a viewer and not the groomer. Winter seemed fantastically well behaved. As always, excellent job grooming and the video is wonderful.
Your shots of the puppy watching from the floor are precious.
My lil maltese was crying in the background hearing Winter whine (during her brother’s appointment). Was surprised she was so good. My lil buddy is the same age and cries a lot during baths so he heard the water and started whining- I wish he was as chill.
I also don’t want to shame without knowing them… but I wipe my dog’s face every day. He’s not stained at all. Do they just not bother? Maltese coats are high maintenance- they need lots of help not to get matted. I hope little Winter does not grow up to have a future like poor snowy.
Snow had to endure a shave down, he was a trooper. The puppy was good and both are beautiful. Good groom.
OMG! Winter is so little and adorable! I'd love to just hug and snuggle her all day long!! I can't help but wonder if her breeder did some grooming and brushing on her. Or was she actually BORN a perfect grooming puppy?!?
It's too bad Snowy was so matted! I wonder if his parents don't own a good slicker brush to get those mats out down to the skin? I know that I had a lot of matting problems with my toy poodle before I got my CC Coral Slucker brush! It didn't matter how often I brushed her, the brush I had just didn't get down to her skin, and mats always formed!
Super sweet little dogs. Every Maltese I’ve ever met has had a really sweet temperament. I can’t handle the tear stains tho, makes me feel kinda sick. 🤢 You did such a great job with both of these. Snow turned out amazing - you sure didn’t have much to work with!!😊😊
These two were absolutely adorable! Miss my little Maltese, Sophie, so much! She was the sweetest, most lovable dog, who loved everyone and was good with kids as well as adults. She knew no enemies whatsoever.💕💓
eating lunch, watching total cuteness. Now I'm going to be 'that person'. Why did the owners not take care of the teeth, and not have him taken care of grooming-wise for 7 months, then they get another dog that they cant take care of?
Theyre gonna attempt to groom the dogs themselves. I'm speechless. I hope they learn how to pick up a brush first.
@@explodingdog, I know right.
exactly @@explodingdog
Omg the puppy's face with the happy hoodie!!! So cute!! 😂❤ Both dogs are super cute and very well behaved! The puppy kept looking back at you at each step like what are you doing now lady? Lol ❤
They're both so cute and well behaved! I hope snowy wasn't uncomfortable with all his matting
And teeth 😢
So if the owners don't groom Snow why did they get Winter? Is Winter going to be matted every time too? Why are they not maintaining their pets, they are small dogs so brushing every day or every other day shouldn't be such an issue. probably gonna be an unpopular comment but come on guys, groom your pets, if you don't want to maintain them then don't have them! My cat was as big as these dogs, I groomed her daily, I took care of her teeth, I maintained her because it was my decision to keep her when I found her as a kitten so it was my responsibility. When she was 20 my vet said no older than 14, I had to show him her vet book for him to believe her real age!
Kudos to the dogs though, so well behaved and bet Snow felt better after his groom the poor fur ball.
Not an unpopular comment/opinion in these parts.
Vanessa mentioned that the owners planned to groom Winter themselves (hopefully that includes Snow as well…) and that Snow had had surgery so possible reason why he looked like that, except 7 months is a long time and they still should have been brushing him as much as possible at home after the surgery.
@@rangerlove7 I hope so too but they haven't done it so far and he is an old boy now, he'd also benefit from having those teeth out for a start, his mouth must be so painful the poor little guy! Sorry to harp on but I felt really bad for this little guy, Vanessa could see how bad his teeth were and yeah just brushing would have helped him so much.
Aww. They're so cute! And for her first groom, Winter was such a darling!
I don't know how you've done it, but I could sit and watch your videos for hours! I bet you're surprised as I am at how successful this is. I'm so happy for you! I truly enjoy your commentary, skill, and obvious love and respect for both the dogs and their owners. Thank you for taking on this endeavor! I learn so much about grooming and dogs. Bless you! ❤❤
These videos are my ASMR 🥲
You truly are the best, Vanessa. You called that puppy an angel... Let me tell you something from the deepest part of my heart... You're the real Angel. I'm so grateful to you.
I love when you explain the reasoning behind why you do certain things or perform steps in a certain order, it is so interesting!!! and I learn so much :) great video as always ty for sharing
I have a Maltese and a mini schnauzer so both dogs are high maintenance and lot of upkeep so i do get lazy too at times bc both need regular grooming and teeth brushed so I know it’s a lot of work!, But now worried for the puppy will end up like Snow if same Owners do not keep up with her grooming, if u cannot take on the responsibilities of a high maintenance dog like a Maltese please reconsider 🙏🏼👍🏼🐶
Yeah I don't understand why the owners would get another Maltese when they can't keep up with brushing the first one
Yea, they clearly are overwhelmed by the maintenance of their first maltese dog, so why get another. And for those who say it's so expensive that's another reason to not get another maltese. We have to be responsible about pet ownership.
Great groom - as usual! That puppy! And the 14 yr old (Snow?) was so good also - if a bit squirmy. Just to let you know: you are my lunchtime therapy. Everyday I eat lunch and you keep me company!
The little one is so cute at the end, looking at her brother and probably thinking 'you look and smell different'.
I have had 5 Malteases they need to be groomed every 6-8 weeks! What is wrong with people? These dogs are high maintenance dogs brush them 3-4 times a week in between groomings also! Maybe you could teach these things to the owners so the dogs don’t suffer!
The puppy running at the camera at the end 😂🥰
Oh my God those little chirps!
What a cute puppy
Snow looks so much like my Apple who passed away in 2022. He was a shih tzu & Maltese mix. I didn't realize how much work his coat needed to keep it from being matted, and I really could have done better.
So cute how Winter kept looking up at u to listen to ur words. Adorable little girl 🥰
The adult dog was quite good too 😊
My Tail starts Wagging every time you post a new video 🤣👍
