He's so incredibly obedient for a dog that's not groomed often
Let's be honest. He has an understanding of she is doing. It should feel comfortable to have all that off.
From what I have observed in videos like this. Animals that have a ton of hair. Do want humans to shave them. Once they feel the difference on their body.
Yeah i think in this case the dog wasn't the issue at all but the owners might have been. The dog was quite ready to have all that mess off him.
The Golden personality is strong in this one.
@@robinclemmons7712 Oh absolutely. Smart and gentle
That's because he is a hippie.
The fact that Falkor is very obedient and not aggressive demonstrates that even in his owner’s adverse economic circumstances, he is well loved.
@@silencz1Did you not listen to the video? The owner tried to get him groomed but couldn’t. I’m pretty sure you have no idea what it’s like to be in a position where you have financial hardship, but it’s not easy. It was even hard for my family to get our dog to the vet for checkups because they couldn’t afford an $80 vet bill. Not everyone has it easy to where they can afford these things. That doesn’t mean the dog isn’t loved. If the owner didn’t care about the dog, they wouldn’t have even tried to find a groomer to do their fur. Let’s not be so judgemental.
@@silencz1He didn’t have fleas.
@@AnAdorableWombat12:37 Oooofff... How embarrassing for you. Seems like *you*didn't listen to the video. Let's maybe try a little compassion, to both the owners of Falcor and commenters who are showing empathy and kindness. I've time-stamped exactly where financial hardship is mentioned.
The owners OBVIOUSLY love Falkor greatly his obedience and gentleness is testament to that.
You don't have to be rich to love your pet. You just sound ignorant.
@@sloane.2747 It is free to walk a dog for it's exercise and Falcor is very overweight. The owner may love their dog because it's a cute companion but they aren't loving him the way he needs. The owner is overfeeding and under exercising their high maintenance dog. They should be embarrassed.
I’m a vet groomer and am shocked at the amount of dogs turned away from other groom shops wether it’s due to matting or “behavior”. It seems like people turn away dogs they just don’t want to deal with and it breaks my heart :( Thank you for helping this baby!
He's so incredibly obedient for a dog that's not groomed often. This good boy didn't need anesthesia, he needed Vanessa's patience and kindness..
I agree. I believe that the other groomers didn't want to take the time to do it. Thank God for people like Vanessa.
Amen to that.
you and the lady who cleans depressed peoples houses for free are the goat! appreciate the compassion you guys have 🙏🏻
I love aurikatarina!
Agreed! I love Nottheworstcleaner for what she does as well. 😊 It makes it rewarding to support creators who do God's work.
@@BrightEyesEmĺ
ßsssssssß
Midwest Magic Cleaning. Not a lady but a really cool dude who cleans hoarder houses for free.
This good boy didn't need anesthesia, he needed Vanessa's patience and kindness.
100%!!!❤
It was not about the dog, just the intensity of matting and time it would take so the dog isn’t uncomfortable.
@@parryyotter But it only took 30 minutes to shave him. Anesthesia was obviously not needed. The dog isn't exactly feral, he's really very easy to groom. So those other groomers were either fibbing about why they didn't want to take him on, or they were just too inexperienced to know better.
@@stellangiosit is painful to shave matting. It can leave bruises and hematomas. It would be more humane to do it under anesthesia even if the dog is well behaved. The owner would just have to pay for it and obviously taking care of their dog isn’t their priority
@@kristyrowland111Or it’s insanely expensive and circumstances changed and the owner couldn’t afford that type of grooming. He’s there being groomed with Vanessa, so clearly the owners do care for him. Maybe get off your high horse and realize not everything is always as it seems.
He is such a good boy. He lets you touch his mouth. At one point it looked like a sheep shearing gone wrong. 🐑🐑
You did a great job, as usual.
He is so happy to be clean. I wonder if they ever think “ I smell better “
I bet their food even tastes better after a goof bath.
His tail wagging, he’s happier
Thank you for donating your services to help this dog and his owner. I owned a standard poodle so I understand how expensive upkeep can be. One day when I was in the vet waiting room, I saw a poorly dressed elderly woman enter with a poorly groomed dog. After they were led to the consulting room, I told the vet that I would pay her bill, - regardless of cost. God has blessed me. The look on that old lady's face when she came out to pay her bill and learned that an anonymous donor had paid her bill, - was priceless 🙂. We can all do acts of kindness for each other. Pass it on.
❤ you are appreciated
You are wonderful! Inspiring. 😊❤
🥲 Those moments are awesome to see. God is good.
😁👍
Beautiful!🎉❤🎉
I was a groomer for 40 yrs. I was known in my area for being able to do cats and dogs no one else would. Be it temperament or difficulty of the groom itself. I was so proud that other groomers and even vets would refer their clients to me. Sadly I'm disabled now, I miss grooming terribly. I love your enthusiasm and your passion. Your hard work and obvious love for the animals is a quality that very few younger groomers seem to have nowadays. Best of luck to you in the years to come. Blessed be
What do you have, if I may ask?
@@emmascholz3300HOW RUDE!!
@@emmascholz3300why would you ask that. What happened to personal privacy
@@emmascholz3300Nope. You may absolutely not ask.
What? If a person is not comfortable sharing, they just won't. Don't speak on other's behalf..
I think he realized early on in your groom that this felt good, and he showed a lot of patience with the whole procedure. Well done!!😊
When you look at the condition of his body, and how calm and tolerant he is, I'm guessing his coat is the ONLY neglected thing about that good boy!
What upsets me is the thought that the prior groomer surely knew this man was going through financial hardship and suggested a highly expensive and potentially dangerous (anaesthesia) veterinary procedure for a job that took Vanessa 32 minutes with a shaver and a clip lead!
I concur completely - especially after considering how dangerous it is to anesthetize a pet. Obviously, anesthesia must be used for major procedures like surgeries and other medical emergencies, but the mortality rate of pets that receive anesthesia - even just anesthesia to hold them still for grooming - is disturbingly high. I didn't know this until recently, but I couldn't agree more that anesthetizing a pet is far too risky to even _consider_ for a simple grooming routine like this one was!
I also think that in the litigious society we are in, groomers are refusing to do difficult dogs. Which then trickles down to the younger generation as lack of desire to go the extra mile because they never see anyone do so.
@@rlight7334I dont think thats the only reason.
Some groomer might not have much experience grooming dificult dogs or thoes with aditional needs, they might not be equipped to take on such a task either.
I'd rather a groomer say they aren't qualified or equipped to handle somthing instead of taking on the job and possibly doing harm to themselves and/or the pet.
I do think however if they were to reject the work they should know of a more qualified groomer who they could recomend.
I mean pet groomers not willingly to work on doodles? The major clients, the reason why pet grooming exists in the first place is absoulte insane to me. 😅
@@lawyerpanda1856it makes sense. If doodles often have behavioral issues and the general public doesn’t understand what a nightmare their coat is before getting them than why would groomers want to work on them? Sustain bodily injuries, get sued by the owner after their dog gets shaved and all their skin issues surface, or have to deal with getting their website reviews tanked because someone’s neglected pup doesn’t look like a Pinterest doodle because the groomer can’t make a miracle happen with severely damaged coat. Just because Vanessa makes it look easy doesn’t mean this is actually easy. Especially when this dog is a 1 in a million temperament
You can tell from how well behaved he is that this dog is loved and well cared for. People don't realize how quickly finances can fall apart leaving normally responsible owners unable to do what they normally do for their pets.
I was thinking the same.
I don't understand why they didn't try brushing their pup though. He seems like a very good boy who wouldn't make it difficult.
I’ve fallen on hard times before too, but this owner could have brushed the dog. That, the overgrown nails, and the dog’s obesity makes me wonder if this isn’t just plain laziness.
@@niemandbestimmtes9808I'd guess that by the time they realised they couldn't get him groomed professionally, he was already too matted
@@dostagirl9551 since you don't know the circumstances of the owner it's cruel to judge. Perhaps someone is battling a terminal illness etc.
I’m so glad that Falkor’s owner found someone who could help. Rooting for both of them to land on their feet soon.
Well said
They do care for their dog
They could be elderly on a fixed income and struggle to pay for everything in life. The fact that the puppo is named after a character from an nearly 40 yo movie makes me think maybe they are elderly, but I don't know personally. I'm sure they wish they could do more for Falkor.
@@skootergirl22I feel like there's little excuse to allow a good boys coat to get this bad, it'd be different if he wasn't so good about the process
@@chadwickermansure but they would've known that getting into having this dog. Learn to shave it at home, clippers are like $20 at Ross, brush often etc. There are ways to combat that, that isn't just "oh gues fido has to suffer some more" glad they got taken care of at least
Wow. If I hadn't watched the transformation as it happened I would not have believed that the "before" and "after" were the same dog. He must feel so much better with all that tangle dirty fur gone! :)
He looks like he's enjoying getting shaved. Je probably os enjoying all of the air getting to his skin.
Falkor was so good for the entire groom. Truly one of the better behaved I’ve seen on your table. I think he was probably groomed regularly from the time he was a puppy, until his owner fell on hard times and then his coat got out of hand.
This is one of the most tolerant and well behaved dogs ever on this channel. Poor lad is clearly happy at the end. You did a wonderful job there Vanessa 👏
No wonder he's panting it's like a sheep not being sheared
He went from a sheep 🐑 to a Labrador lol
He looks like he feels so much better after his treatment. It’s awesome.
His sigh of relief made me tear up 🥹
Well-socialized goldendoodles are often like this. Particularly if they understand that you are trying to help them.
You’re truly a saint!
He came in a doodle and left as a lab😂I bet he feels so much better
Night and day!
Agreed. The two faces of Falkor.😂😂 I think he was the most obedient of the dogs I've seen on this channel. I was amazed he let her use those clippers and scissors on his face without resistance.
Have you ever found a dog that does like having their legs and paws done??
He come in as a good boi and left an even gooder boi :P
He turned out so handsome…he was such a perfect gentleman 🩵
Oh man he is perfect. My dog is a terrier mix and has a lot of hair. Her grooming costs me 22 US dollars which includes bathing , hair cut , nail trimming , ear cleaning . She absolutely hates the groomers and I can say that they’re not the most gentle , hence I’ve finally decided that I’m going to learn to groom my dog on my own. I can’t see her stressed out.
I don't know the reason why other groomers refused to work with Falkor, but it definitely wasn't because of behavioral issues. He was one of the most chill and well-behaved pups you've ever shown us.
Thanks so much for all you do - not only for the pets and their owners, but also for all your viewers who love your content.
Since she said the owner fell on hard times financially, maybe others wouldn’t groom the pup because the owner didn’t have enough money 🤷🏼♀️
They also did mention it could be because of the severity of the matting. Others suggested being groomed under sedation.
@@Curious.Badgerwhich, as she shows, is BS.
@@BeatlesOasisFan agree.
@@rebeccahicks2392 did she also say in past videos that some groomers won't do cases like this because of time and effort?
His owners may have fallen on hard times and been unable to have him groomed, but his behaviour and general disposition comes across as very loved and happy dog that they’ve looked after to the best of their ability.
this is straight up neglect. to let a dog get this pelted
@@pvncat - What part of "financial hardship" do you not understand?
@@pvncat I don't have a dog, but when I fell on financial hardships, I didn't get my hair cut, didn't go to the doctor, didn't go to the dentist. At the end of a decade when the hardships eases, I needed a root canals and crowns. So, I dunno. Guess I neglected myself? That's kind of what happens whilst in "financial hardships."
@@daveogarf Financial hardship is no excuse to neglect an animal.
@@daveogarfanimals are a privilege not a right.
Not only that, I have sold my own stuff to ensure my dog had all she needed. If they had brushed this dog he wouldn’t be matted, he’d just have a long coat so they also didn’t put the work in the maintain the coat.
I think this might actually be the most epic transformation I've ever seen
He looks so much better after the groom like a completely new animal
Such a good boy. I have been in tight situations where I couldn't afford grooming. I can relate.
I love how you explain why other groomers may not do a dog. You don’t demean how others do their job. You also don’t criticize owners. You have a lot of compassion to go with your dog grooming talents
She’s a true gem of a human.
I thought this same thing. She just loves the animals and has empathy for others that love animals.
That’s true - compassion for other groomers, owners and dogs!
For sure!!!
"Does this fur make me look fat?" He looks so content with it afterward. What a well-behaved dog. I'm so glad you could help with the owner and this pup.
Pup ?…. He is a full grown dog 😮
How kind of you to help. I THANK YOU !
@Mike-xh7wb any dog is a pup. No matter if it's 5 weeks or 15 years. To me, they're forever young.
@@RennieGirlReads maybe spend a little longer, on developing your English skills
@Mike-xh7wb Maybe you shouldn't be so critical of someone's English skills. So, I accidentally typed "with it" twice. It's called a typo. I'm pretty sure TH-cam doesn't have the Grammar Police; unless you have nominated yourself, Sheriff.
im at 5:45 atm in the video.. i just wanna say.... "whose a good booyyy, who's a good BOOOYY, Yes You Are!!" in a crazy friendly dog talk way haha
I have a Goldendoodle, and didnt realize before we got her exactly how much grooming was needed. This was so fun to watch, I’ve never seen our Luna actually being groomed! I just pick her up and she looks like she’s had a day at the spa! It is clearly a lot of work and I’ll be increasing my gratuity to my wonderful groomer!
Sometimes I forget how tiny of a human Vanessa is until she grooms large dogs. She must honestly be pretty strong herself.
she could probably arm wrestle a pro boxer with the amount of a workout she gets from the dogs!!
Leaders lead,
She can be a 12yo so long her fur buddies felt she was a leader they will respect her
She's actually 6'4...just these dogs are gargantuan
@@OptimusYale
That really puts it into perspective 👀
Vanessa’s superpowers are complete empathy with the dogs, and a complete absence of fear of dogs. Animals can tell if you’re nervous or calm, and they act accordingly. It’s rational on their part: If people are tense and worried, they figure there’s danger around. If people are relaxed and quiet, animals know there’s nothing to fear.
Considering he isn't groomed very often, he really behaved beautifully!
I think he is very clever and knows, ti will be for his benefit. He is definitely much more comfortable now. He is adorable.
he's got that smart Poodle brain and a big goofy body haha
He behaves like a dog that used to see regular grooming.
As someone who has depression and who is in a tight financial spot at the moment, I really appreciate you helping this dog and owner. I only have a cat to look after and she is thankfully healthy at the moment, but I still feel terrible I haven't been able to bring her to her annual vet appointment and I know it would be incredibly hard to keep living if she was taken away from me.
Why don’t you get a pet insurance? When I used to live in Canada, we had pet insurance. I bought a plan as soon as I bought my cat from a breeder. You pay affordable monthly premium and they cover your cat or dog for needed medical bills. It can get quite expensive when they get sick so it’s always a good idea to get a pet insurance. My cat luckily lived for 21 years without any major illness. But I had pet insurance throughout his lifetime.
@@KittenBowl1 I don't know where OC is from, but not a lot of places in America offer pet insurance, and even when it is available, it often isn't affordable or doesn't cover what it needs to so you still end up paying way more than feels justifiable for a pet, and when you're in a tight spot financially, adding another monthly expense is hard to handle
Look in your area for reduced cost animal care. Call your local humane society or Animal control for places that price on a sliding scale based on income.
Falcon must be feeling like a million bucks right now 😊 what a sweet dog
Wow, a freshly-peeled dog! I'll bet he feels a million times better after being freed from his fur prison. Amazing job, Vanessa!
'peeled' is gross but I understand what you're saying. I can almost feel the weight lifted off them plus feeling super clean. Peeling is a boke term tho lol
This looks a helluva lot like a sheep shearing, so "peeled" is an accurate description. His behavior was excellent despite not being groomed regularly. Poor pupper, but I bet he feels so much better now. Great job, Vanessa.
@@catc7959 He's a sweet pup and will definitely feel much better. The term 'peeled' is still gross though imo lol
@@NbSkazNono this is how you peel sheep
We must protect this dog groomer at all costs!
From what?
@@kmarch6630 this cruel world that we live in
She ia a one-in-a-million true blue animal saint!!❤❤❤❤
Agreed 👍🏻
He looks amazing. I am so glad they found you. Sometimes, unforeseen events happen and as you said, his owner was told he needed to be under anesthesia to be groomed which would be very expensive. He has a new start thanks to you.
Around 14 minutes he is giving you the eyebrow lift. Love it. You do an amazing job with animals that need the most. Thank you for taking them on.
He acts like he’s been groomed regularly since he was a puppy! Such a good boy!
i think thats the poodle in him.
Seriously, I was surprised when she mentioned anaesthesia. He clearly doesn't need it. He's obviously anxious but he's as mellow as a Newfoundland. I guess that other groomer just didn't know their stuff.
@@mr6johnclarklabradoodles are notoriously hard to groom, so it's 100% the owner and the dog, not at all the breed.
@@BeeWhistlerLabradoodles are notoriously hard to groom. They're known biters.
@@BeeWhistler or they dont wanna do the work.
I wouldn’t complain about the skin irritation or small rashes, I would be worried that she had swapped my dog for another one 😂 - what a transformation! 😍
Went from a sheep dog to a great Dane lol
Yeah this was basically Extreme Makeover: Doggo Edition 😂
Very versatile looking dog breed, I like that!! They can be shaggy or shaved❤
😂😂
On my dog's first shave, she went from a black fuzz ball to an elegant silver miniature poodle. If I hadn't been standing there talking to the groomer (mobile grooming session in my house), I honestly would think dog was swapped out. First time I learned about coat colour changes in certain breeds.
Crikey, that was like a sheep being shorn! What a good boy he is. I bet he felt soooo much better after that. Thank you for helping out those owners that really need it. Blessings and paw prints from Oz 🐾 🖤 🐨
This dog is the most obedient dog I’ve seen on this channel!! He did such a good job! 🥰🥰🥰 what a wonderful boy, he looks beautiful😭❤️
Such a well behaved dog, almost like he knew you were helping him.
He’s also well loved and well trained and it shows.
This is like an unboxing video for a dog. He looks totally different afterwards! And he's so well behaved too. What a good boy!
WHY WOULD THIS DOG NEED SEDATION GROOMING? SCAMMER.
Right? If I had not watched the video, I would have thought the before & after pictures were of two completely different dogs!
I saw the thumbnail and was like, "what dog is that???" A GOLDEN RETRIEVER/POODLE MIX???!!!!
Its also funny that when you shave the poodle, you can see the retriever.😂
@@et4920 have you even watched the video...
Falko has obviously been well-trained and much loved. Thank you for helping out his owners!
Love it, when she passive aggressive 😂😂😂 call the other groomers on their BS 👏👏👏 he’s such a good boy. You are a great human being, so kind and humble. Keep up the great work. And thank you for doing what others don’t want to do 🙏🫶🙏🫶🙏
I truly love that with your increased fame, you’ve chosen to accept dogs/owners who can’t get the care they need from other groomers, be it due to age, temperament, time commitments or what have you. So many people would have gone the other way and started charging through the nose, but you’ve devoted your time to helping out the animals that really need it ❤❤❤
Work of God =)
true animal lover, from my perspective. and she does lovely work. talent and generosity.. good hooman.
I can't believe how calm he was while you shaved right around his mouth, ears, and eyes! He's such a good boi who's been through a lot.
That was my thought. Such a good boy.
WHY WOULD THIS DOG NEED SEDATION GROOMING? SCAMMERS.
@@et4920she explained why they said that in the video.
Not being groomed very often does not mean he's "been through a lot"
@@lmd2454 having a coat that matted is rough for a dog. Even without his owner going through a rough time, which was mentioned in the video, that coat is hard to bear. That, in and of itself is a lot
He's so good! He was probably so happy to be released from the weight and all the pulling of his coat!
i know its not what the channel is about but i'd honestly love seeing more of the dogs just playing after the groom, both to appreciate ur work and to appreciate the dogs. Either way, thank you for all your hard work for these dogs.
I'm genuinely in awe at how well behaved and patient that dog was
He really was a very, very good boy.
This is the most well-behaved dog I’ve ever seen on your show! Such a beautiful temperament he would be a joy to own. I hope the owner has him groomed on a regular basis. He’s a real sweetheart! ❤😊
What a terrific job!
It’s also worth noting that behavior can change with the environment. A lot of grooming salons are loud and chaotic, but a quiet environment like yours might make a difference. I’m an in home groomer and a lot of dogs are SO much calmer when there aren’t a bunch of loud dogs around.
Such a good point. A simple nail trim by an abusive groomer set my 11lb chi-weenie back years. She had night terrors for weeks. Although that's not the same situation at all here, the groomers make the difference.
This groomer is unbelievable. She is knowledgeable about animal behavior, kind, patient and really skilled at what she does. I like her a lot.
I can sure identify with the owner....i am so glad he found you and that sweet body seemed to love his makeover❤❤❤❤
He sat perfectly! You can tell he knew you were helping him :,) I loved this puppy omg
The big sigh after his bath was worth 1,000 words. Thank you for helping him and his owner- you gave compassion and comfort to them both. We all go through hard times and it’s the encouragement we get from others that makes all the difference.
My 12yo Dood "talks" to us in those sighs. This guy was loving on you!
WHY WOULD THIS DOG NEED SEDATION GROOMING? SCAMMER.
@@et4920it was probably just an excuse to not have to groom him, or the groomer was just uncomfortable with how large he was and how much effort it can be especially not knowing what he’s going to act like during it.
@@et4920 It's not really scamming if the groomer (who was literally turning business away) didn't stand to make money from it, which they didn't. Sedation grooming can only be done by a vet.
The owner dropped off a goldenxpoodle and got back a goldenxlab! 😂 This was an awesome groom to watch, thank you for doing this for those who are looking for help for their pets. Fantastic job!
The retriever really showed up after the shave lol
I had the same thought 😊
That’s exactly what I thought. That lab face 😅
He was a very good dog. Thank you for taking your time doing him. 😊
You are so good. Thank you. When my dog & cat were alive, I’d have welcomed you grooming them! Both were stray rescues, both were my best friends in the world, both were emotional support animals & each one was with me for 15 years. My dog was a 64 lb pit bull & my cat was a domestic short hair. We managed & I fought for their lives with everything I had but couldn’t save them. They were my best friends. I have no more best friends. It’s hard not having a best friend but if there’s not enough money to give them the absolute best care, it’s not right. My babies were literally left in my yard, one was born there while I worked hard to save cats dumped irresponsibly in my yard. I did my best for 30 years, 15 yrs for each. My 71st birthday was 10/11/ I love watching your videos & seeing how aware & intelligently you treat animals. And your commentary is great fun. 😊 Blessings!
He looks like such a gentle giant.
Other than the lack of grooming, it looks like he is well loved.
I hope his owner gets his ears seen to asap. If he has an Ear infection he will be suffering, they are very painful!
You can tell by the difference in how hard he was panting in the beginning as to much better he felt afterwards. His breathing had slowed down. He was hot and miserable carrying that amount of hair around. He is a beautiful dog and he knew you were trying to make him feel better. He especially loved the oatmeal shampoo. Thank you for all that you do to these beautiful fur babies. ❤️ 😊
he was also super nervous at the beginning and by the end had opened up a lot more and was more trusting! both that and the matting are beautiful changes
What a sweet boy! You’re literally an angel for doing this for free, you’re saving these pups
He is so cute and sweet and fluffy
Thank you for helping his owner get him in a more manageable place…
Xoxoxox
Falkor's good nature and transformation aside, I always appreciate Vanessa's no-nonsense approach as well as her generosity and compassion.
This is one of the goodest of good boys!! This can't be the most pleasant for him, but he's being so good! Even just letting you know he doesn't like something without snapping or growling... such a good boy!!!
Hope Vanessa can groom him again, for Falkor and the owner. The transformation was amazing. And such a fantastic temperament on him. What a good boy. You could see by his smile at the end he really appreciated the relief.
💯 % 👍😊
What a good boy! I think you could've flossed his teeth! Thank you for ALL you do! ❤️
Honestly the first shave didn't do handsome falcor justice -loooked like a rugged uncle. He is so pretty and patient! Hope the owner is doing well too
As a groomer, most of the salons I worked at ordered me to turn away severely matted dogs as a liability issue. That and even after 4 years of grooming, I am terrified of nicking matted dogs. You say that took you 32 minutes, It would have been an hour plus for me.
I hope one day I can be as confident and good as you are!
Stick with it. You're doing God's work. Save the doggies! ❤
I've worked in salons like that before. I'm glad I didn't start in one like that it would have severely hindered my ability to help pet in need like this big pup!
Because you cared enough to be careful. Good for you!
It's a tough decision to make. Taking on a job, that's outside of your competence (or what you feel comfortable with) is not a great idea. Things can go wrong and then it's your fault.
But it must be heartbreaking, to refuse service, when you know, the poor animals are suffering.n
She said it took her 2 hours and 10 minutes.
Vanessa, I would have no trouble watching Falkor's groom every 6 months, if you want to do that. Such a good boy, and so patient. Beautiful dog.
I'd sure love to see him again....he touched my heart
yess!! :)
It’d be great to see his coat grow back in when it’s properly cared for too!
I wouldn't mind, either. He was a good boy for his groom and it would be good to see him back.
Doodles shouldn't go 6 months between grooming though. Mine goes every 6 weeks and it keeps her coat in good shape and she's happy.
Maybe go 3 months and see how he's filling in and do a slight trim.
He is a wonder dog. He understands that you are giving him all your love and attention because he needs you to make him feel better. A million happy vibes to you. You are unique.
The owner is going to get a new dog! Great job! 😊❤
So well behaved, it’s so cute that he came out looking like a totally different dog 😂
I know! I feel bad for saying it, but I think he's cuter without those floofy curls. Regardless, he's a very good boi
Holy moly. That was a lot of work you did for free! And he's gotta be one of the best behaved doodles I've ever seen, he just let you shave around his face like it was no big deal! Good job, Falcor. No doubt he feels amazing after that.
He went from doodle to labrador in 2 hours haha
I had a doodle like him she was very well behaved
You are a gentle and patient groomer. Well done.
free for the owner but with 1m views on youtube she was well paid for the groom.
WE are paying. :) And a pleasure it is, too!
It's insane how different he looks after being shaved. Glad you were able to help him!!
I am SO thankful for your attitude towards some of your clients and the awareness that we don't always know what they're going through. As you said, they managed to get their dog groomed in the end, despite some road blocks. He was a really good boy, who gave you hardly any resistance. But when he was fussy about havin his feet done he made me think of a page that used to pop up in my suggestions of a farrier in China who took care of donkeys who were, often times, very neglected. When you have a dog who doesn't want you to touch his feet that's one thing. But this man held on to the donkey's foot no matter how much it tried to kick him off. I can't even imagine what kind of strength it takes to do that! And quite often he would stand with his back to the donkey's head, and the leg berween HIS legs. So if he wasn't able to hold on tightly enough, the consequences could have been - ah - breathtaking! So when the next dog doesn't want you to hold onto his/her foot, remember that a certain Chinese farrier holds on at the risk of never again having any children! Great work Vanessa! I always look forward to discovering more of your grooms.
He's such a good boy! Kudos to the owner for taking care of him the best he could and to Vanessa for taking him when nobody else would!
Honestly, he behaves like a dog that's been groomed A LOT in his life. It's almost like he's saying FINALLY! A GROOM! I will do whatever you want, I remember this business, it's old hat, just GROOM ME! And then he just enjoyed every second. Like that noise he made, was like AAAAAAHHHHHHH IT'S BEEN TOO LONG!
What a well behaved dog!! Gorgeous
We went to your Amazon shop to get some equipment we needed. I can't wait to try it out. I am so happy to support you in this way. The look on that dog's face as you relieved him of his burden is priceless.
I love how he went from a rapid pant from overheating to mouth closed and calm after all that matting was removed and the bath. Great job! Love it!
When Falcor sighed and Vanessa said “what was that?”, it was a purr! My doodles does this too when I massage him.
Thats too cute 🥺🥺🥺
Oh! ❤
dogs do not purr
Although I don't even own a dog I still watch your videos so that you can provide free grooms for every dog in you region that needs one!
Greetings from Germany!
Can you even imagine how uncomfortable it would be for him , if he actually did have fleas under that matter coat? Would have been so painful. I’m so glad he was free of fleas. He is such a good boy
And I love what you said at the end of the groom. That no judgment is being placed on the owner, and that in the end…they found a way to get their dog taken care of. Exactly! I love hearing that from a groomer. I bet some ppl don’t do it at all, in fear of being judged. Then it gets worse and worse. Great job on sweet Falcore. (Who has the best name ever)
Falkor is incredibly well behaved throughout. His ticklishly sensitive feet were a struggle. I hope his ears get sorted because he is worth it.
Perhaps he's had it done before a long time ago?
He was such a good boy.
I used to have a cavapoo and being on disability meant not being able to afford to have him professionally groomed. Instead i bought myself a professional grooming kit and did him myself. He wouldnt win any beauty pagents but it got the job done and he was so good to groom. It also made a big difference when he went blind and he felt safe knowing it was me grooming him.
God i miss him so much. 😢
🥺 I understand. I miss my little girl too. It'll be 2 yrs in October. I love my little chihuahua I adopted in January - but it's not the same as my sweet, quiet (yes), beautiful little toothless Yorkie, Gidget. 🩵
It’s so hard when they go but would you rather have gone never knowing them. They leave us great memories.
@ljre3397 honestly if I didn't have my 2 cats when he died I probably would have gone with him. By the time he passed in 2018 I'd already lost my grandmother and my beagle in 2017. I also lost my old cats 2 weeks apart in 2016 (they were sisters and 18.)
We miss our cavapoo, Calcifer, who passed away last year at the age of 14. He was such a wonderful dog...
I truly believe in the rainbow bridge, you will see him again
What a sweet dog! Beautiful. So well behaved! He must feel so much better! I love to watch you groom. You have skill, knowledge, and kindness! ❤️❤️❤️
Holy cow that transformation was crazy. What a good boy ❤ great job!
He was such a good boy! I had a soft coat Wheaton, and it was almost a hundred dollars ($100.00 ) to groom him, every month. Because I am disabled and we had only one income, I was gutted. That is and was a tremendous amount for me, so I had to learn, out of pure necessity how to groom him myself. And I used YOUR videos as a tutorial. We had him for 14 years and he was my BFF as well as my stability dog, UNTRAINED, so no vests or anything. I took him with me when I could but not where dogs were not allowed, he just knew when I was going to fall and made sure he was there so I wouldn't fall or if it was bad, not fall so hard and he got me to the ground safely. I miss him so much!
My fav client was a soft coated wheaton. They are a lot of work but i am in love with the breed now
He's trying to be a good boy even through the nail clipping. Such a sweetie. The love you have for these guys. A true gift.
I am amazed every time she manages to clip the dogs nails that don't like their paws being touched. I can't manage to clip my guinea pigs nail even when bribing her with lettuce. She goesh crazy when I try to cut her front paws
What a good pup! Poor thing, I bet he's feels so much better now. Thank you for doing this work, if not for the owners then for these dogs who really need you.
Such a good boi!! He might not be groomed much, but he’s a champ!
I think he knew you were helping him, giving him the relief he so desperately needed. So sweet.
You did a sterling job grooming this dog. It’s was incredibly kind, empathetic and generous of you to do this for free for a dog that really needed it. This dog seems well loved by his owners, I think, because he trusts humans enough to let you groom him.
I thought so, too. I'm glad Vanessa explained that the owner had financial trouble, because I otherwise couldn't understand how a dog who's so obviously loved could have gotten so filthy and matted
Doodles can be such nightmares - through no fault of their own - and I am shocked he is such a sweetheart! What a total doll
Thank you for supporting the animal community and donating your time and facility to those in need!
His tail thumping on the wall after the shower was wonderful! You could tell he felt so much better. 🥰
What an amazingly well-behaved boy! He was so patient and still for you, and I bet he felt 1,000 times better after his groom.
This doggo was so calm during the whole process. Of course there were things he didnt like but unlike so many others he didnt lash out. Such a good boy.
I absolutely LOVE Vanessa for not only not judging the animals' people, but also making sure to let her audience know that they shouldn't either. And for treating even the most troublesome pets with kindness. She's amazing. And also fun and funny when possible.
He's absolutely beautiful ❤ and SO laid back...a fabulous groom Vanessa 🙏 xxx
Groomer here to co-sign…doodles definitely tend to be more difficult for grooming (regardless of size). He was such a good boy it was incredible to watch. It seems like he was getting very regular maintenance before his owners fell on hard times and that could be why he’s so well behaved. He is what groomers everywhere wish all doodles were like.
Golden retrievers are generally so very well behaved and poodles are well behaved as well. A golden and a poodle is of course different than a Labrador and poodle, but even with this mix, labs just aren’t aggressive either. Poodles, Goldens, and labs are not aggressive or difficult dogs. Why would you find them difficult? I'm just curious. My mom was a groomer, and she loved these dogs because they were so sweet, but of course they are a lot of work.
Another popular mix is the aussie labradoodle, which for anyone who doesn't know, is a labrador, poodle and cocker spaniel. The cocker spaniel was added to make the dog smaller. A cocker in the mix does make for a higher possibility of potential aggression. Cocker spaniels have a higher bite rate than people may expect. My mom preferred the Golden doodles and labradoodles to the aussie Labradoodles even though the aussie is smaller, because they can be feisty even when they've been groomed regularly. Many Cockers have no
Issues showing you their teeth when they don't like something. And they're not bluffing. They will snap or outright bite. The other issue with the cocker is they are no warning biters. They will suddenly bite hard with no warning whatsoever which is of course dangerous for a groomer. Cockers are notorious for this trait. I've never liked cocker spaniels for this reason.
@@mygirldarby look up issues with doodles, a lot of them have behavioral issues and coat issues from being misadvertised and backyard bred, so a lot of groomers refuse to work with them
@@mygirldarby have an Aussiedoodle from a rescue. Her Embark DNA mix is Australian Shepherd and standard poodle, she weighs 40 pounds. (The rescue where she came from had a cocker/poodle mix. They called him a cockapoo. He was closer to 30 pounds.)
The Aussiedoodle mix is generally a very high energy dog, I figure that was why she ended up in a rescue. That and being somewhat high maintenance with that blended coat. The mix of wavy double coated fur, and curly poodle hair can lead to heavy matting and requires fairly frequent brushing & consistent grooming.
Falkor is a Saint! One of the better behaved dogs I have seen on your channel. Putting him to sleep for grooming would have been overkill based on work you have done on him here and the time it took.
Great job. Your skill with the trimer combined with your way with these big dogs is amazing.
He must feel so good!!! He was a pretty well behaved boy 😊
