Vanessa: "Don't growl at me, it's rude." Jager: "Well, don't touch my feet. That's rude!"
Like Beauty & the Beast! Haha!
🤣🤣🤣😂
Lmao 🤣🤣
😂😂
Necessary, not rude. Vanessa didn’t growl at Jager😂😂😂
The way he growled as you grabbed his foot but immediately stopped and looked at you when you picked it up was like saying "For real? I told you no and you STILL did it??"
And she looked back at him, still holding the paw as to say: "See, nothing bad happens" and then letting it down.
Gotta teach them that they can't get what with threats.
😂😂😂
Yeah, I understand that, I just thought it was funny- especially once Vanessa began laughing too lol
That not even an Akita that’s a straight up German shepherd mix get scammed American Akita garbage 🗑️ dog breed what are you getting scam when you want a Japanese dog breed you want a Japanese Akita inu that’s not even an Akita that’s a mastiff mix fake akita with breathing problems scamin you Akita’s don’t even get that big that’s how you know is not Japanese this is a fake akita get scam they scamin you this fake akita don’t buy is a scam
As an owner of a large difficult sassy male Akita, I sooo appreciate your patience with them and respecting their personal limits.
Are Akitas hard to groom in general? Educate me please...
Very, they are 100% with you for everything!
@@vexxa7562 Okay... Thanks for the info.... Dogs are like people... Some challenge you more than others. Doesn't mean they aren't good people/dogs... They are just CHALLENGING😆😆😊
Akitas like their people and can be iffy with others.
Wonder why people breed dogs which are so dfficult to handle.
"Stop growling at me, it's rude"
Love her! 😂😂😂
I know, right!!❤
@Repent-and-believe-in-Jesusreally? I do believe in Jesus but I don’t go around the internet and spam believe in Jesus! Especially dog videos

As a long time Akita owner I would say be *very* careful removing a muzzle from an *apparently* docile Akita. They are very muzzle-wise and will simply accept their fate until that muzzle comes off, then they'll go right back to telling you how it's going to be!
My girl got her muzzle off, i only put it on to make sure she would be ok with my sons dog because they are now living together shes awesome with her 2 females together i drew the lucky straw with her

Jager to other dogs: "So I ate a treat, and I got all dizzy and sleepy. This woman I've never seen before took me into a room and started squirting me with water and touching me all over. She started shearing me like a sheep, then stopped and put a giant pink bandage around my head. Then she hoisted me up like they do on Broadway to make people fly. Then she gave me a blow dry. Then she took off the pink bandage and started shearing me again. Then she brushed me, and sent me home. It was so weird!"
Other dogs to Jager: "Dog, you need to stay off the drugs!"
Broadway? That's a lucky dog
😂😂😂

I have had Akitas and like all intelligent and independent breeds they have limits to what they will and won't allow when it comes to touching them. My kids and I could do anything with mine with no worries but someone she did not know was not allowed to touch her at all. The vet once she knew him was allowed to touch her however he needed to for the most part and she would give warning one time if somebody was trying to go somewhere she wasn't OK with. If her warning was ignored plain and simple they were going to get bit and it was going to be bad, she didn't ever nip. She saved my ex from rape or worse. She could climb chain link fences and when my ex was heavily pregnant with my youngest son she got out of the car at home and a man ran up the driveway and grabbed her and attempted to drag her into the bushes, the dog was in the fenced side yard, saw it, climbed the fence and attacked him. Tore him up really good and continued tearing into him until he managed to get off the property and my ex said the dog immediately stopped at the property line even though their was no fence out front and the guy drug himself off down the street. She called 911 and they arrested him where he was laying in the road bleeding about 400 yards from our place. Turns out he was wanted and had outstanding warrants for rape and assault. She was one of the best dogs I have ever had.
What a good girl!
Oh, good girl!!
That is horrifying. Thank goodness your Akita was there to save your ex and the baby. These dogs were bred to be bodyguards and take their jobs seriously. Glad there were no repercussions against your dog.
I wish I could give her a treat and tell her she did good :(
😮😮😮
If I'm super drowsy and am not allowed to sleep and someone starts detangling my tummy hairs without my consent or giving me a manicure against my will, I think I'd growl, too.
😂😂😂
😂😂😂 I think I would also bite!
❤❤
😂😂😂 well said
Right 😂😂😂
I have been in a similar situation but at hospital, not a beauty salon. I was of course consenting, but it's a whole lot easier to just lay back and let them do their thing than to complain about it.
He's beautiful! Having a dog that size growling would be terrifying. You are SO brave!
I think it's more about being SMART than brave, and Im neither enough to handle a grumpy Akita. 😮❤😅
Growling isn't that big of an issue. It's basically just them telling you that you *really* need to stop. There wasn't any real aggression. Just being very annoyed. If he really wanted to go crazy, I doubt that the metal bar would have kept him in place. Very good boy, just not a lot of patience
i'd definitely be afraid. those guys are thick.
Very good observation on him. I thought the same thing. A good dog, but with limits@@rebel4466
I was thinking the same thing! I would be terrified!
The very stern "no thank you" growls are always welcome over the usage of the mouth :) Good job, Jager.
He was all bark and no bite because you genuinely respected his bark 🤣 I have not 1 scintilla of doubt that he meant business with those growls, holy moly, what a majestic creature 🥰
The only American Akita I know is the sweetest big baby ever. She comes to the daycare I work at and I was SO nervous when I saw we were having an Akita come in but she was only 4 months old when she started daycare weekly. Idk if it’s because of the breeder, the owner or a combination of the two, but she’s got the BEST temperament. She’s extremely tolerant of everything in terms of grooming, different dog personalities and she’s so friendly to everyone she meets! I keep warning my coworkers “if you keep saying you want an Akita, know that they are nothing like this one” 😂
If he came to you regularly and often for grooming, he might well settle down about the whole process because you are calm, gentle and respectful with him. He's a gorgeous boy and obviously quite intelligent.
What a stunning and clever boy. He vocalised so well and in such a controlled way. I get that some people find growling scary but for me, a growl is excellent communication and avoids any misunderstanding. Vanessa, you read animals so well and you help other people understand vocalisation and how to better handle animals.
I like how he didn't try to bite or lunge at you, just that deep growl like saying "No, we are DONE now."
It's not wise to upset a Wookie.
That was a fantastic sinister low growl and dead stare. Scary movie worthy! LOL He's a handsome dog.
I *love* Akitas; seriously underrated breed. My late Akita, Lurch, weighed 155 pounds and is the best pet I've ever had. RIP
I love Akitas as well, but would NOT recommend them for most people. Highly intelligent, stubborn, and with STRONG guard dog instincts make them a difficult breed for inexperienced owners.
Lurch! What a great name!
@@McNasty43 A friend of mine used to have an Akita, but she couldn't handle him at all and had to give him up.
Lurch. Lol. Great name.
What a great name!
I've never seen a long haired Akita before!! He's beautiful!!!❤
The breeder of my Khaleesi has taken back a two-year-old longhaired Akita male. The family couldn't keep him. He is sooo pretty! A real teddy bear! They are now looking for a new home for him.
@@KhaleesiundManu Do you have more information on this?
@@ignahstra Sure, what do you want to know?
He is beautiful, but wow, he was snowed under! And still had attitude, I’m glad they snowed him. He would hurt if he got aggressive. ❤
💞💞👋👋
His vet knew how to adequately sedate him, which is more than I can say for most of them.
Well as long as he didn't drive himself home afterwards.
“Stop growling at me, it’s rude.” 🤣 oh, I love your deadpan voice
I absolutely love that you're getting 5k+ views within a couple of minutes after posting a video. No drama--just really a wholesome channel.
My old man was part akita. I didnt understand the breed. He was also pyrenees and lab crossed. So many of your akita grooms make me understand him more (rip) and realize we did pretty well with him. Respecting boundaries was a big deal with him. He loved us but would growl at me if I even patted him when he wasnt in the mood 😅
So are akitas basically cats?
cross breed dogs are my favorites, they are unique (like us people, somewhat)
@@thelastofthehitachi972so people you know are cross breeds? That's a bit strange 😮
@@melaniekendall4903 not at all
I had an Akita/German short haired pointer & he was a bit of a grumbler at times, too
He’s a GORGEOUS dog. I love the fierceness of his personality. He has limits and expressed them well. He’s the parent who says “stop” once and kids get it together😂😂😂. He’s a good boy❤❤❤
Generally parents like that hit their kids and are not to be envied.
They can be, for sure! Or if these parents are not physically abusive, they may be verbally abusive. 😢 I don't think it's ever healthy for children to be afraid of their parents; it's incredibly sad and sets many children up to be afraid of confrontation or to become bullies themselves. Respectful of their parents, definitely. Afraid of them, no.
However, I've seen kids who I know aren't abused and generally listen/mind on the first request.
He's no Kuma, but he was better behaved than the muzzle suggested.
I always knew from my dad's body language & tone of voice when I needed to stop immediately. He never struck me or cussed at me it was just mutual respect. Several kids in my neighborhood also understood this yet were never struck or cussed at. So yeah respecting when someone tells you to knock it off by their body language or tone of voice is not a sign of abuse just mutual respect.
@@user-de6ly1of7z
Yeah this. It is parents who can’t get respect any other way, that resort to hitting their kids.
And in reply to the people before you, demanding respect =/= abuse.
Despite not really being the type one would immediately respect at the time, my nieces that I took care of every summer respected me completely, because I was super considerate to their needs, and did everything I could to make their days fun and happy, while still making sure they did their chores. Even though they fought me hard at first, I never had to ask twice for them to do anything after a month, because they loved all the extra things I did for and with them, and attention I gave them.
It was the same thing with my unruly half brothers I met later in life.
Point being, you don’t have to be a big macho guy to get mutual respect.
Give respect, and you will get respect.
But if you give respect and don’t get it back, demand it, or make it known that’s unacceptable.
I'm always impressed by this plucky, petite girl with a big heart.
Watching her handling those dangerous breeds is akin to watching a thriller 😂😂😂
💞💞👋👋
😂😂😂
Thrillers where the character is actually making good decisions 😂
Akitas are NOT dangerous!
He is a beautiful boy and massive. Although he growled, he never tried to make a move. Unlike some of the little dogs you have done before lol. Wonderful boy and thank you so much for sharing with us Vanessa. I hope you and your loved ones had a lovely Christmas ❤
Akita’s are very muzzle savvy lol. They will act right the entire time like an angel and they know juuuuust when to attack when the muzzle is coming off. Ive seen too many horror situations with akitas. They’re gorgeous but pretty dangerous
He definitely did lmao did you not see him turn to her?
His face absolutely looked like a bear to me! What a beautiful boy.
I love Vanessa‘s cute little laugh. 😊😸
Was it at 3:00? Because I laughed too the way Jager looked at Vanessa and the way she was watching him. 🤭
Vanessa makes me think Anne of Green Gables as a modern day pet groomer, lol. ❤
You have an astonishing combination of bravery and patience.
Jager: "I'm only in a bad mood cause I'm tired of all the 'meister' jokes! Haha, very funny!"😡
Glad I'm not the only one thinking that 😂
Wow that growl sounded like it came from a wild animal. In a beautiful way!
Akitas are designed to hunt bears, any growl should be listened to.
That bear, I mean dog, is beautiful! Vanessa, I love how empathic you are with the dogs and cats.
I get very anxious around big Akita's. My Jack Russell was attacked by an Akita/Bullmastiff mix and while trying to break up the attack, I got bitten in the mouth, tearing my lip almost off, and had my index finger almost degloved. My Jack made it, missing having a pneumothorax by about a mm. When she took off this guy's muzzle, I immediately tensed up. Nope. Muzzle stays on.
Great work respecting his boundaries! Very nice and much improved look.
I'm currently sick with a MASSIVE headcold and binge-watching you taking care of all these floofers has been a godsend (achoo).
A handsome bear of a dog. He did pretty good for you Vanessa.
❤❤❤🐕🐕🐕
Beautiful American Akita. As a former Akita owner I would say you did the right thing to stop immediately. He won't hold a grudge against you, cause Akitas have a really long fuse so it takes some time to really stress them out, but if they growl it's important to take it seriously. On a well trained Akita it won't be the first, the second or sometimes even the third growl but if you push it too far they will do a short reminder that they said "No! Stop it!" to you. And that could hurt quite a bit, cause that snout is as powerful as it is beautiful.
I've never seen a long haired akita before, he looks like a fluffy teddy bear.......with teeth. Kind of reminds me of a chow chow in appearance.
Growling is communicating. When my "little one" barks or growls, strangers always need a new pair of knickers. She has a voice like made for a church choir🤣. Many Akitas are very talkative. Similar to huskies. Others are rather quiet. Like my Khaleesi. If she growls, then I know she's stressed about something. But that doesn't mean she's going to bite or tear someone apart. It just means that I'm getting a bit upset.
My sister has an American Akita, and the dog is so quiet. The dog is great at dramatic sighing, though.
@@Atom_Atomic 😅🤣🤣🤣same here
@@Atom_AtomicOurs has a huge vocabulary of sighs. Then there is the lets play growl, the get this stupid kid off me growl, the get off my yard growl,
That is one beautiful dog.
I thought when he was falling asleep in the shower was the best part of the whole video.
Thank you for letting us watch you work. I have learned so much about different dog breeds while watching you, you are incredible teacher, and a humanitarian for taking care of all those dogs that no one else will touch. I wish you a very happy new year. Kathy.
He was falling asleep because he was so sedated not because he was enjoying the grooming
Oh man when akitas give that side eye and growl 😬
He looks great, you did a wonderful job. I'm wondering if he would be more behaved if he wasn't sedated. My really sweet rottie gets real fussy/cranky when sedated but still functioning. He was sweet when barely awake after his teeth cleaning, but was real cranky after the Benadryl the doctor prescribed for nail trimming. Hope you get another chance to groom him. Sending lots of love 💖 from sunny 🌞 Arizona 🌵. Take care of yourself and each other 😷.
P.s. I convinced him to let me cut his nails in trade for his dinner. (Don't panic, at 140 pounds he could afford to miss a few groceries.)
Here's what I did. I fixed his dinner as usual. I sat down and showed him that there was food in the bowl. Then I showed him the clippers... He walked away. I went and did something. A little while later, I called him over and showed him the food, then the clippers. He just sat there and he gave his paw when I asked for it. But, he left when the clippers approached. A while later, I repeated. This time I was able to get a snip! Progress! He got his dinner. Everytime I had the patience, I did this. The next session, I was allowed to trim, one nail (a couple of snips). Then I was allowed to trim his nails without bribing him with his dinner. But if he refused, I just waited until dinner time and went through the routine. Usually only cutting one foot at a time. Eventually, he got where he would doze off during the trim and I'd even get to use a nail file to get anything that might snag. 💖🌞🌵😷
What a beautiful and friendly Akita
I used to live with an Akita (not mine). He got a bit naughty once and chewed my bed up, and I came down like hell fury on him. He ran outside and wouldn't come back in until I'd calmed down lol. We got on well after then.
MAN that dog growled like a bear! He has such a beautiful coat though, and I'm glad she was able to take care of his matting
Wow all that fur makes him look very cute. It was great you managed to get him bathed and tidied up a goid bit.... I love how you show you are not frightened of him and respect him and care as well.. Thank you for sharing Jagger with us....
In some fantastic realm, Vanessa is the girl who tames & then trims Dragons, Yetis, Woolly mamoths & other fantastic beast. Her legendary skills makes even the hissiest of sabre tooths tuck in their death daggers 😂
Look at that cute face at the end... you'd never think he was growling so rudely.
That is a gorgeous dog!💜💜💜
Never seen a long haired. Size difference too.
Hope you had a nice Christmas and hope a happy new year for us all❤
He is a beautiful dog, sedated and still had a little bit of zip. He growled to let you know, he was still in charge. Good groom
I was kinda impressed by Jager's growling at the start of the video, but right after hearing his name, everything made sense to me
Since I found your channel, I have always admired the work you do so much but today...hats off to you for your patience, love and understanding for Jaeger!👏👏👏
He's one gorgeous Akita. I have never seen a long-haired one before. Man, does he have an attitude, or what?
0:54 He almost fell asleep 😂
I'm an owner of a long haired American Akita as well. Male, 5yo and quite reactive with other animals. We've never sedated him for grooming appointments, and it's really hard to find someone willing to take him in. We tend to bathe him only once a year, in the summer, to reduce stress. He always leaves the appointment absolutely exhausted and usually the groomers aren't able to do a perfect job (mainly because they get scared once he starts growling). Our family understands the challenge, and we hope to get our hands on some proper tools to start bathing and grooming him at home, with the care and comfort he deserves.
Lmao, it never gets old seeing Vanessa being brave next to such large dogs. My bravery tends to plummet the more of my arm or head the dog can fit in its mouth. Sometimes ya gotta risk it for the fluffels though.
He looks like a bear. Good boy. Thanks, as always, for not pushing the animals into situations that make them reactive.
Aw he is so adorable ❤you had your work cut out for ya bless your heart you always do such a great job
Thank you and Merry Christmas. I hope you and your loved ones have a wonderful holiday season and all your wishes come true in 2024.
You are so patient, Vanessa. Happy New Year! 🎆🎇🎉🎊
What a gorgeous dog. You did a really nice job with him.😊
he's gorgeous
Merry Christmas Vanessa. 🐾🎄
Stunning dog!!! And Vanessa's handling always works miracles!!!💖
Jagger falling asleep in the shower was hilarious 😂
He sure looked nice at the end! I’m happy you were able to lean him up nice and get rid of the matting!❤❤❤
I used to feed a security guys dog with huge pieces of de-battered flake, like near foot long pieces of fish, he knew and was so gentle but just sucked it down, didn't even chew, not many ppl touched him. He was beautiful
Beautiful pup! You're so good!
“I so mad bout dis but also I so sleeeeeeepy”
Ohhhh my fluff, so handsome and big! The more to hug👑🙏💞✝️🐾🕯🕯🕯🕯🕯🕯
What a beautiful dog. He sure is handsome for such a grumpy dude.
You did such a wonderful job on him. I am so glad he was well behaved.
I had a dog that would growl when he was happy. Like I think he was a cat in a previous life. He would let out these low growls that would make you think he was about to rip out your throat, but it was him purring. I had to tell so many groomers this, and found one who had a dog who did the same thing
My cattle dog border collie mix growls mostly. Playing-growl, hungry- growl, wants to go to bed- growl. Wants outside- growl, it took a minute to understand that’s her language
You are such a patient person not all your grooms are difficult but you show what a groomer should be like
He was a very good boy .😍🥰 You're amazing. You're a great teacher.
Today was when I first learned that Akita's also come with long hair! My 120 pound super-fluff rescue Woofie's DNA test came back as Akita and German Shepherd. Since adopting him last year, I kept doubting the results, because of his extraordinary long fur. I saw no Akita aside from his big plumy curled tail. Then along comes Jager, who looks just like Woofie in every way, and has taught me that Mr. Woofs does indeed look like the 50% long-haired Akita that he is!
It's a rare recessive gene trait in the American Akita breed. I don't know if it occurs in Japanese Akita's. But neither of them actually breed for it.
@GoogleEqualsEvil It most likely comes from long haired shepherd genes. "American" Akitas are made from Akita Inu, Mastiffs, and Shepherds. I have heard two reasons for creating the American Akita. One was to try and save the breed as they were getting scarce, the other was to get a bigger Akita, improve on their capabilities with breeds that did similar thinks.
What a beautiful dog, you did a wonderful job even with the limits he gave you!
He is soo beautiful!! What an epic floof
What an amazingly beautiful dog!! He could be a nice fluffy lap dog!❤❤
If only ALL groomers were as good and respectful of dogs as you are. There would be a LOT more happier and healthier dogs out there!! ❤❤❤
You did an awesome job! Also was super impressed about how calm he was with the muzzle. I also have a dog who hates having his paws touched, but loves people. I cut his nails at home or muzzled with a vet. The one time I sent him to a groomer I watched from afar as the groomer would lift his paw and he would give a little growl. They immediately gave him space and reassured him and he happily gave them body wiggles and kisses. They tried this like 2 more times. Poor scared boy released his glands he was so scared the 3rd time they tried.
I want what he’s on for my next trip to the dentist! He had some big mats!!! As always, you’re amazing!!!
Aww, he's so cute! He might have been a bit rude but over all he seemed pretty good. Though if he was sedated it can be rather difficult to move and stand. I often compare it to walking through sand, everything is just that little bit harder.
Nice work with an Akita, I’m impressed!
Darling! If you had given him the chance, You would have gone home with a bandaid. :) I'm so proud of you.
3:20 That look. You crushed him V... He even looked into the camera with defeat. LOL
Naming an Akita "jaeger" is very appropriate. What a beast of a dog.
My grandma used to feed her giant Great Pyrenees CBD treats to calm him down before his grooming appointments. If she didn’t do that, he’d find a way to make a break for it lmao
Wow he looked so pretty after his groom! Great job
That fact that he was falling asleep in the tub made me lol
Merry Christmas Vanessa 🎄 Beautiful dog🐾
What a beautiful pup❤❤❤❤
He’s so beautiful
Amazing job like always 👏🏼👍🏼
I had this happen to me once, that the animal fell asleep while work on it was done.
Diffence was, the animal was a horse, and I was currently holding one of its hooves up, so the farrier could work on it, when the sleeping horse shifted its weight on that foot.
We both fell, the horse was wide awake afterwards, and I had some backpain.
The growl and the side eye...
He is gorgeous!🐾❤️
Jager is a handsome boy. Pups don't like having their paws touched because they feel trapped and vulnerable when someone holds their paws.
He has a cute smile at the end.😊
