That is a very intelligent dog. You can tell his training was thorough. He kept wanting to sniff your face and watch every move you made. Learning and reassuring himself that you were not panicking so he shouldn't either. Good job on the owners/breeders.
I thought the exact same thing. He’s looking to Vanessa to gauge how he should react. And he wanted reassurance that he was doing well. Such a sweet boy.
@@AccidentallyOnPurposehe looked worried when she said the water coming off of you is black. It's like he was thinking are you taking off my beautiful black.
Wow, you can really tell how well Freddie is trained by the way he keeps looking at Vanessa's face throughout the new or uncomfy parts of the groom. He's learned to trust his handler on how to navigate new situations, take cues from them and to "think first, act second". Major kudos!
He has a look like " Excuse me, Miss, may I ask what's going on? Also, please don't hurt yourself with those... items." Confused, but more worried about her than himself.
Fred is such a handsome and well behaved dog. Dogs like Fred are a key example of what happens when you properly train and desensitize your dog, they become confident and able to handle new situations like a champ. Way to go Fred!
Yesss, absolutely! Ideally the breeder already starts desensitizing the puppies. I used to have a Bernese mountain dog breeder in my neighborhood. And whenever they had puppies they'd turn their back yard into "puppy school"- with balloons, flags, mirrors, foil, seesaws etc.
Love how Fred looks on curiously and with perked ears and when he gets in doubt you can just see him looking at you for guidance and then just accepting it as OK since you seem to be OK. Such a great dog with a superb personality.
I love it when fur babies show the calm confidence of Fred. You can tell his owners have really taken the time to work with him to make him this confident. It’s wonderful to see that such great care has been taken. Kudos to them an to Fred of course, for being a great shepherd ambassador.
He is such a handsome dog! Good boy, Fred! When Vanessa asked him if he’d like a treat, my dog came over and nudged my hand like, “Why, yes! I’d love a treat!” So, she got one😊
Fred had a perpetually confused expression, looking at you as if waiting for you to explain to him why you were doing the incomprehensible things you were doing to him. He's such a sweet dog, doing way better than many dogs who have been getting groomed regularly!
😂😂😂😂 I thought I was the only one who was doing the voice-over. Fred: "I'm allowing all this but dear lady, could you please tell me what you're doing this for and why!?"
Good boy Fred! My dog was 8 before he had a professional groom. He LOVED the dryer! The groomer even used the blow dryer to distract him while he cut his nails. 😊
We have a 125LB version of Fred (black too). He absolutely adores bath time, leaning into whomever is cleaning him. We do them ourselves because we love our dogs and are still able to groom them. We brush every couple of days so they stay familiar with grooming. If you have the energy to at least play with them or do daily walks, GSD are just the best. You can tell by his looks he's very intelligent. So calm too. Congrats to his owners for the training.
Lol, I have a 45pound version of Fred but she doesn't particularly like water. She's only 42% german-shepherd, the rest is 42% Canadian Inuit dog and 14% supermutt. But the black German shepherd genes are strong in her appearance. My theory as to why she's not crazy about water is the Inuit dog genes and the fact that she's from cold Nunavut so water could be dangerous there... hoped she'd like swimming like our previous german-shepherd sledding dog (Malamute) mix but what she lacks in swimming she makes up for with her love of being in boats!
My rescue girl was a shepherd mix and I had no idea what a furnado could be until we took her to a shop near us that had pet washing stations complete with the air snake of death. Everyone in a 15’ radius, including the other dogs got a taste, literally.
Like father, like daughter. Both gorgeous pups! (And cranky Eris, too!) Fred was remarkably well behaved for having never been professionally groomed before. He looked more bewildered and resigned than anything. LOL! Maybe Dad can pass along some of that tranquility to his daughter before Lupa's next grooming appointment. ♥
Absolutely love the typical German Shepherd "What did I do to deserve THIS!?"-look in his eyes 😍😍😍 And that he kept trying to sneek in kisses while you groomed him 😍😍😍
Fred is adorable. His head tilts and the way he looks in the Happy Hoodie are just cuteness overload. I remember the video of you grooming Lupa and her litter mates. Side note, whatever training the owners did for confidence is phenomenal. I need that training, for myself. Lol
Wow, it just hit me that even though it's necessary, being secured and confined in that stall must be terrifying for some of those dogs. Especially those being groomed for the first time. I'm so glad Fred had a good experience. ❤
Oh, he's a handsome boy. I like the full black coloration so much more than the "normal" brown. And he's *very* well-behaved. An exemplary dog. BTW, will we also see Lupa's next groom whenever that is?
I just hope Lupa doesn’t get unfavorably compared to Zoey. On _Instagram_ Vanessa captioned “You’ve got some big paws to fill, Lupa my girl” in a picture with Lupa. Probably not what she intended, but I was like “Well that’s insulting.”
I’m a pretty inexperienced dog owner, and Vanessa’s description of his “stressor” training and the viewer comments are very helpful to me. I appreciate the community for her channels!
I absolutely love watching you groom the dogs and cats. The comments you make about the animals is too funny. The hoodies that the dogs and cats have to wear are adorable! Thank you for sharing these great videos. I learn a lot from your grooming techniques. 😊
I adore the fact that she never bends the animals legs in unnatural positions to accomplish the groom of the legs. I can't watch other groomers because they make me furious the way they handle those poor babies!
Fred is a highly intelligent, adorable, cuddly, well behaved pup. He looked like he wanted to give kisses during his grooming process. Daddy and daughter looked so sweet together.
What a sweet boy he is. Mostly just confused and curious it seems like. Definitely a bit put off by everything to do with the face, but impressively well behaved. Edit: His face in that last photo with Eris is hilarious. Definitely a "Nope, this was a bad idea" kind of face. Then again, who wouldn't be a bit put off when dealing with the personification of strife?
When I saw him shake his head while wearing it then she removed it, he looked relieved! Like...Woman, you're embarrassing me in front of 100s of thousands of people! 😂😂
Love how he's a little nervous for the first bit, then eventually is like, "oh, is this it?" and just chills. Gotta love dogs with lots of world experience. They really get used to new things so much quicker when they're properly desensitized. It's also nice to see a GSD that isn't overweight.
Fred used his intelligence and made a decision from the start that he nav trust Vanessa. Every time he was not sure what’s going on, he looked at her for reassurance.
I miss Cubby! Black German Shepherds grow on you and for a big boy, Fred is calm, cool and collected right down to that famous head tilt! This was a drama-free groom! 😊
i need the type of training that Fred has had so I too can remain calm in all stressful situations! lol. (He is not only handsome, but infact has a beautiful temperment. ) Another informative and satisfying video :)
What a beautiful boy! He has a noble head. So patient, Fred. Lovely to see him in action outside, too. Great to see Lupa; she's gotten comparatively huge since we last saw her.
for a first timer Fred took this like a champ, what an absolute legend. he constantly has that look of confusion and acceptance. like he is thinking; "what the actual F even is this?" but also "i guess this is my life right now". holy shit that white wall with all the wet black fur is hilarious.
I had two black German Shepherds the male passed away two years ago and the female is still very young and looks exactly like this one in the video. They truly are amazing animals so smart and protective of their families. I will definitely be getting another one in future.
What a absolutely beautiful and amazing dog fred is he was so well behaved in the bathtub and on the grooming table as well i absolutely love Black German shepherd dog's you don't really see alot of them about that why i love them so much.i would like to take the time out to appreciate all the hard work that Vanessa put's into grooming all these absolutely beautiful Dog's and Cat's as well and i would like to thank Vanessa from all the Dog's and Cat's that can't say it for themselves you do absolutely amazing job..and i would like to thank your Cameraman for helping you to film all these awesome videos as well.....he does a fantastic job.......,,
Fabolous, indeed. What a beautiful dog. He looked like he was going to answer your questions any second. And together with Lupa they make an incredible duo. I love German shepards. Thank you for this beautiful, good boy.
The solid black is to me the most beautiful color of the German Shepherd. I had a Black GS for 12 years until the Angels came and took him. His name was Shadow and his bloodline was descended from Rin Tin Tin II
A black German Shepherd has always been on my bucket list of pups to have. Actually a pair of them is the dream. He is a magnificent specimen ands it’s nice to not see that spinal curvature you see in poorly bred shepherds. He has very clearly been bred by people who know the proper, natural composition of the breed and have done incredible work. Fred is the example of people breeding these dogs for the love of the breed and wanting to showcase what a conscientious breeder is capable of turning out. This is not a backyard breeder, crossing their fingers. Time, money and medical care have gone into this dog. I haven’t seen Lupa yet, but if I heard correctly and you said Fred was her dad, I’m sure she is as beautifully turned out. The amount of work he has done and that has been put into him in his two years is evident. He is what I refer to as a baby ( because they never stop being your baby, even when he’s doing big boy work ) and already his ability to self-regulate is impressive. I’m sure his mum and dad have more training to come for him and I would love to see Fred show us what he can do. I tip my hat to his mum and dad for putting the time and love into a breed who is exceptional, but absolutely must undergo training. He is a magnificent beast, and that Color enhancing shampoo brings out his coat beautifully. I wonder if they will add a green based one for pups whose black has redder undertones to make their coat pop a bit more. As always another wonderful video on a wonderful baby boy. I can’t wait to see your new addition to the family, I just hope it doesn’t mean you had to say goodbye to one of the kids ( I’ve not been able to keep up with your adventures for a while now. So, forgive me if I open wounds unintentionally. ) Wishing you and your family love and happiness from the 9th ring of hell, the DTES.
There is one point at the beginning when she turned the water on his lower back. I heard in my head him saying "whoa, watch out for the family jewels".
Both Fred and Lupa are just beautiful! So is the dog at the end of the video! I have a German Shepard Akita of my own and I love German Shepards, they are such good dogs and so intelligent! 🥰
Fred is gorgeous and i'm amused how you're like "are you going to be like Lupa" and he's just so calm. Also no matter which dog they are so adorable in the happy hoodie.
My GSD LOVED bathes. He liked the water and loved the attention. He would take a bath every day if I let him. He would jump in the tub and cry for it to be filled.
OMGEEEE.... not only is he beautiful but you can tell he also has a cute and sweet personality! There were several times that he looked at you for affirmation and was almost giving kisses! I love him. 🥰😘🤗 He also listened intently the whole time, like he was waiting for commands.
That smashing Fred just knows he is handsome and so laid back he was almost horizontal 😅. I do hope he got treats and some special love from his daughter. Loved this one, thank you❤👋🏴👵❤️
Only two years old and a father? Lol. I know dogs can breed early, but I thought for large dogs two is a still early. He's such a cutie! 😍 So well behaved!!
Yes, that was a concern for me too. I'm generally against breeding dogs though I realise that good bloodlines should produce good progeny. Anyone know how old Vanta is?
He’s a fabulous example of a well trained German shepherd and a credit to his breed,I enjoyed this vlog a great deal as it reminded me of my past dogs and how well trained they were.
Seeing how well behaved Fred is, i wonder how my Aussie would react. He's used to being bathed but doesn't like water and having him get in the shower area (he'd be too large for the tub) would be a challenge because he'd immediately acknowledge the place as "The Corner of Misery" and he's very strong lol once inside though, he'd likely cooperate in the most disgruntled way (i know he'd behave well based on his outstanding calm at the vet of all places). Drying towel would be 11/10 though he LOVES IT, and the dryer would be fine because I desensitised him with hairdrier and more generally loud noises so he understands noise doesn't always mean immediate danger. Brushing would be interesting because he has a double coat but dislikes the rake - I've been seriously considering investing in an equigroomer to make the shedding task easier for him. He does love the sleeker brush though, it feels softer for him. But it's also very easy to get into Junior's good book though, scratches to the ears, a treat and some flattery to his massive ego by telling him how much of a good boi he is (I literally trained him by using flattery as a reward lol it's highly efficient) will do the trick.
Fred's head tilts show he's listening intently to you and wants to understand what you're saying. I daresay that attention paid off when you mentioned "walk" and "treats" at the end, there was zero ambiguity in his reaction to those 🤣🤣🤣
Fred and Lupa are adorable 🥰. Vanessa, are you able to let me know what are the best brushes to use on my 11 month old English chocolate labrador? Her fur is quite dense. I’m in Australia at the moment and it’s winter ❤
I wish more people with dogs that aren’t considered “groomer” dogs would bring them in. I owned a Dane and 3 Rotties who all got regular grooming. It gave them a chance to be around a pro and be handled. My current GSD X is also going to be going to a groomer regularly. My groomer is a former vet tech and trainer so she looks at my dogs in a very holistic way. She’s worth her weight in gold.
I ❤ you!! I dont know why youtube recommend this channel because I dont love dogs but, watching you do such a good job and having such a positive and genuine attitude is such a breath of fresh air!! Keep making more content..i watched other channels and they simply dont compare💯
I absolutely love when a dog follows the proceedings, and then nose to nose with the groomer, as if to say, "Do you know what you are doing?!"- but lets her do it. Beautiful dog!
He's such a beautiful German Shepherd! Wow, I love your longer videos so we can have a long time gazing at these beautiful dogs. The German Shepherd is really my favorite dog and my family had two during my childhood. I'd say this dog is marriage material or I mean "best-friend material" (LOL) for sure- so well-mannered, calm and gorgeous! Thank you!

He did look mildly anxious and uncomfortable through it off and on, but he's so well trained he knows to stay still and not freak out.
@@AccidentallyOnPurposehe looked worried when she said the water coming off of you is black. It's like he was thinking are you taking off my beautiful black.
With all that black water coming off him during the shampoo, one can only conclude he tried to color his hair at home....

what you're doing this for and why!?"
This breed is well trained and reads faces for cues.
That look on his face 😅
“That stink took me a long time to perfect!”
Such a good boy ❤
He’s so aloof but his face still says “Ms. Nessa… I no like the air snake!” He’s just stunning and so well behaved
Aww I like how Eris looks so regretful after snapping. She's like "Oh I'm sorry guise I didn't mean it."

So, forgive me if I open wounds unintentionally. ) Wishing you and your family love and happiness from the 9th ring of hell, the DTES.
I love the crime scene mark on the back wall while you blow dry him 😂❤
He is AMAZINGLY so well behaved ! He should have gotten a BIG, BIG TREAT reward.
The expressions on his face crack me up for some reason, especially when he’s looking up at you.
There is one point at the beginning when she turned the water on his lower back. I heard in my head him saying "whoa, watch out for the family jewels".
@Loretta Carroll "Watch out for the family jewels" Pffft! HAHAHAHA! 🤣
Both Fred and Lupa are just beautiful! So is the dog at the end of the video! I have a German Shepard Akita of my own and I love German Shepards, they are such good dogs and so intelligent! 🥰
Fred is gorgeous and i'm amused how you're like "are you going to be like Lupa" and he's just so calm. Also no matter which dog they are so adorable in the happy hoodie.
German Shepherds are my absolute favorite breed!! Love them!!❤
Those last pictures were absolutely hilarious and feel sooo accurate for my dogs. Hahaha
Fred is absolutely handsome and charming!! Talk about a good boy!!!. Wow .his owners.are amazing trainers!!.. loved the fabulous Fred!!! Xoxox
Aww, he's such a sweetie! Love the close-up of his worried face during the bath. 😂
Such a beauty, his black is amazing! And a wonderful testament to Fred's wonderful owners and the great training ❤
My GSD LOVED bathes. He liked the water and loved the attention. He would take a bath every day if I let him. He would jump in the tub and cry for it to be filled.
Those ears are amazing.
OMGEEEE.... not only is he beautiful but you can tell he also has a cute and sweet personality! There were several times that he looked at you for affirmation and was almost giving kisses! I love him. 🥰😘🤗 He also listened intently the whole time, like he was waiting for commands.
That smashing Fred just knows he is handsome and so laid back he was almost horizontal 😅. I do hope he got treats and some special love from his daughter. Loved this one, thank you❤👋🏴👵❤️
Fred was so attentive and kept looking at you for reassurance. Good dog and great owners.
What a handsome boy! And so we’ll behaved. 😀
Only two years old and a father? Lol. I know dogs can breed early, but I thought for large dogs two is a still early. He's such a cutie! 😍 So well behaved!!
Yes, that was a concern for me too. I'm generally against breeding dogs though I realise that good bloodlines should produce good progeny. Anyone know how old Vanta is?
He’s a fabulous example of a well trained German shepherd and a credit to his breed,I enjoyed this vlog a great deal as it reminded me of my past dogs and how well trained they were.
OMG! Fred has the most beautiful brown eyes!!!
I loved the "Fred Outline" on the wall when you started the blow dry!!
Absolutely looks like a fred, handsome boy
Fred is gorgeous! He did so well for his first groom. What a stud! WOOF! 🐈⬛🥰
Head tilts never fail 😍♥️
Fred: My daughter you have no idea what just happened!!!!!
Lupa, who knows exactly what just happened: yea dad lol
Seeing how well behaved Fred is, i wonder how my Aussie would react. He's used to being bathed but doesn't like water and having him get in the shower area (he'd be too large for the tub) would be a challenge because he'd immediately acknowledge the place as "The Corner of Misery" and he's very strong lol once inside though, he'd likely cooperate in the most disgruntled way (i know he'd behave well based on his outstanding calm at the vet of all places). Drying towel would be 11/10 though he LOVES IT, and the dryer would be fine because I desensitised him with hairdrier and more generally loud noises so he understands noise doesn't always mean immediate danger. Brushing would be interesting because he has a double coat but dislikes the rake - I've been seriously considering investing in an equigroomer to make the shedding task easier for him. He does love the sleeker brush though, it feels softer for him.
But it's also very easy to get into Junior's good book though, scratches to the ears, a treat and some flattery to his massive ego by telling him how much of a good boi he is (I literally trained him by using flattery as a reward lol it's highly efficient) will do the trick.
The expression of mild concern mixed with "Why me?" is properly adorable. The end result though, such a gorgeous dog!
Fred's head tilts show he's listening intently to you and wants to understand what you're saying. I daresay that attention paid off when you mentioned "walk" and "treats" at the end, there was zero ambiguity in his reaction to those 🤣🤣🤣
Omg Fred is so handsome
Fred and Lupa are adorable 🥰.
Vanessa, are you able to let me know what are the best brushes to use on my 11 month old English chocolate labrador? Her fur is quite dense. I’m in Australia at the moment and it’s winter ❤
I never knew that there was a shampoo for dogs with a black coat!
I wish more people with dogs that aren’t considered “groomer” dogs would bring them in. I owned a Dane and 3 Rotties who all got regular grooming. It gave them a chance to be around a pro and be handled. My current GSD X is also going to be going to a groomer regularly. My groomer is a former vet tech and trainer so she looks at my dogs in a very holistic way. She’s worth her weight in gold.
Loved it! What kind of stress training does Fred get?
I ❤ you!! I dont know why youtube recommend this channel because I dont love dogs but, watching you do such a good job and having such a positive and genuine attitude is such a breath of fresh air!! Keep making more content..i watched other channels and they simply dont compare💯
You: “look at how clean you are”
Fred: *looks around at self* “I don’t like it 😒
😂😂😂
He had literally no idea about what you were doing. The curious look in his face was so cute... 🥰
I absolutely love when a dog follows the proceedings, and then nose to nose with the groomer, as if to say, "Do you know what you are doing?!"- but lets her do it. Beautiful dog!
He's such a beautiful German Shepherd! Wow, I love your longer videos so we can have a long time gazing at these beautiful dogs. The German Shepherd is really my favorite dog and my family had two during my childhood. I'd say this dog is marriage material or I mean "best-friend material" (LOL) for sure- so well-mannered, calm and gorgeous! Thank you!
Fred is gorgeous! It looked like he wanted to give you kisses. Very well behaved for sure!
