This is NOT a mutt/purebred debate. When I am referring to backyard breeding, I am referring to people who intentionally breed their dogs without doing any form of health testing. Purebred or not. If someone wants to breed mutts, but they've had both the parents health tested, that's truly fine by me. I had a dog that was "backyard bred." He was purebred. He died from a genetic health problem that could have been avoided had the "breeder" health tested the parents. If they had, they would have known that both parents carried a gene that could criple/kill their offspring. Backyard breeding is not mutts vrs purebred, it's ethical vrs unethical.
oof
@John McAlister generally, Humans intelligence are very different than dog intelligence, you can’t apply the same shit to humans
People really can't wrap their brains around an ethical mix breeder. Like they OFA health test and everything and someone will still call them a byb but when it comes to purebred people always think "Nah they're perfect and the breeder is excellent." just because they breed purebred, even with zero genetic testings.
@John McAlister why? Dogs are not like humans you can’t tell humans not to breed it’s an infringement on their rights. Dogs are our responsibility, they are not free beings.
@John McAlister Slavery is over. We don't breed people anymore.
Breeding a husky with a border collie sounds like an experiment to make a dog that can actually talk.
Is that good? I wondered if I wanted my squishy little dog to talk and then I thought NO, the complaints and whining would be epic.
Hahaha!!! I have a husky border collie and your right. He stares so intently trying to understand me and trying to get me to understand his crazy wookie words.
They can , you just didn't pay attention!
If my lab mix could talk, i know exactly what she would say..."are you going to eat that?"
@@karenblinder8730 Labs and their appetite… I had a diabetic Labrador who would beg for food he never tasted before. We found out about his condition when he was a little over a year old. He knew we wouldn’t let him eat it, but he still begged for it. He lived a good, long life despite his condition. 9 1/2 years.
Oh, God. That’s all we need - a dog that can run 1000 miles barking at everything he passes…
That kind of endurance, intelligence and working drive? That dog'll herd _your_ sheep, your neighbor's sheep, and every flock in the county! LOL, take that dog to Ireland and watch him lose his fluffing mind with joy! XD XD
@@alexisgrunden1556 and herd the birds, rabbits, squirrels, insects, airplanes, … 😁
@@Ryarios airplane! Squirrel! Airplane! RABBIT! Sheep! Sheep! Sheee- wait, SQUIRREL!
@@alexisgrunden1556 They also herd people. I'm a small adult who has been herded several times by these sorts of working breeds since I was a kid. They don't like it when you try to leave the living room. Bathroom breaks are not allowed and you may not enter the kitchen if the rest of the herd (guests) are not already there.
@@mmedefarge LOL, but they're great if you're trying to wrangle a whole bunch of kids, though! Herding kids is worse than herding cats, but they can do the job! ;) XD
Collies: Prepare for trouble!
Husky: *AND MAKE IT DOUBLE!*
haha what a nice joke. I just had to comment on how funny your comment was, especially with the CAPS LOCK. lol have a nice day joker
Q: How much exercise does a border collie/ huskie cross require on a daily basis?
A: Yes.
💀
A: the owner had best be a triathlete.
My BC Husky mix is on 16 acres loose she has a Boxer and a Catahoula mix to run around and play with. She is the Alpha and bosses around my 70 ib Boxer while she is 50 pounds. Very smart but a little stubburn
Well, my Collie needed about 2 or 3 miles a day at least, so imagine a husky cross! It's a great way to stay fit
Mush! I had a neighbor who would mush her two huskies while she was on a long board. 😂she was maybe 100lbs soaking wet. She'd FLY by our house. I suggested goggles because gnats and she had on a pair of aviator ones next time I saw them. 😂 the pups LOVED it. Giant goofy pup grins from ear to ear.
I can’t be the only one who said “I tidy up his grinch feet…” when there was silence as she snipped his paws 😂
Followed by some doggy-detailing! :p
Nope. I said it too. 😄
Definitely me! 🙋♀️
Now I think she's doing it on purpose as a little test. Looking for this comment string LOL
I hear it in her musical voice haha
Kai is absolutely gorgeous, but I imagine that intelligent and energetic dog like him will get bored easily. Not for lazy owners =P
possibly for a (foster?) family with 10 kids or so
alternatively, for a lazy owner who wants to be forced to be less lazy
Those owners must be jacked, absolutely shredded, so fit that they can still lift weights after doing an iron man marathon, goliaths, actually able to move mountains.. just to keep up with this mix. Holy. Shit.
Beautiful looking dog. Never seen another dog bound around your garden like that. Needs a family of runners, lots of space, and/or animals to herd. Seemed beautifully behaved. Needs introducing to his wider family so he can learn The Song Of My People 🤭
@@the_renaissance That's how it works in our home. I refer to our dogs as my "personal trainers".
We rescued a Great Dane and Border Collie mix named Chance. He had the chill temperament of a Dane but was smart and agile as the Border Collie. We kept thinking the cats were jumping on our kitchen counters and somehow eating food without us catching them. Finally caught Chance in action, downed three muffins, wrapper and all, like an anaconda but without moving the plate or making a noise.
Omg do you have pics posted somewhere?
I gotta see how a dane/border collie hybrid looks! Like did he have a REALLY big head?!
@@alchemicmercury has been to beautiful place
@@alchemicmercury v
Love my dog
Ohhhhhhhhh no... The height and appetite of a Great Dane, with the problem solving ability and sheer awareness of a Collie? Did you need to buy an armored bread box?
it was so cute that Kai super slowly went to bite your hand while you were clipping his nails as a message to you, then when you went, "Uh uh!" he just transitioned into a lick like nothing happened. "See, I wasn't thinking about biting you, just giving small kiss to you. nothing to see here" 🤣
Did it at 2:07 too 🤣
I really appreciate his communication skills . He was like “I’m into you, but I’m not into this foot clipping biz.”
he was like.. "You freaking bi... beautiful woman!"
Exactly like my puppy ❤
Sneaky
A collie-husky mix is like crossing the hyperactive destructiveness of a toddler with the capability of a PhD level physicist with a full team of lab techs and unlimited funding. Glorious catastrophe expected, but surprisingly super calm. The owners must exercise the hell out of this dog to have it be so chill. Good on them.
Why does this comment not have more likes. I laughed my ass off 😂
Stewie griffin
Throw some Shiba in there and you've basically engineered the biggest problem dog ever. Not because Shibas are bad (they're great dogs if you know how to handle them), but because Shibas have their own form of stubbornness (less "I want to do what I want to do" and more "I'll only do it if there's something in it for me, and you can't tell me otherwise") AND their own form of high intelligence (less command learning and more problem solving). You'd end up with a dog that will only ever do anything for you if you bribe it, and will inevitably get itself into trouble constantly.
Sooo... Several physics techs I know xD
German shep/husky/collie mix. Your not wrong
I love how observant he is. Not too much a fan of getting his nails done, but he is looking closely what you are doing.
I love when dogs do that slow, gentle, "please stop that" half-bite. Like they're trying to pull your hand away lol
My croatian sheepherd is like that. She watches every single thing i do and is so smart that she knows how many times i have to turn the key to unlock the door. Still only 8 months old and playfull and stubborn like crazy.
thats just what border collies do
@@CanidRose that's called mouthing. Yeah, I much prefer the gentle but firm hints that some dogs give. As opposed to the dogs that snap at you immediately.
Border Collies want to learn..they're brilliant companions
The way he instantly goes into that cute "I'm sawwy~" mode after getting scolded for almost biting her hand has me dead😂
One time my ridiculously well-behaved and unnaturally calm Sheltie jumped out of a pickup bed and sprained his hip. When I carried him inside and laid him on the sofa to check on it, I accidentally hurt him and he yelped and instinctively spun around and snapped at my hand. Just as his mouth closed on my wrist and his teeth started to touch me he realized what he was doing, froze, and got a bashful embarrassed look like "Oh, my; what on earth is this hand doing in my mouth?"
It's interesting how people who portray dogs as speaking English usually turn them into bad spellers/speakers. "I'm sawwy"? The dog can talk but only like
a "delinquent" from "the wrong side of the tracks"? (^?^)
I can't get over how beautiful this dog is. The blue eyes, the border collie coat, the husky wolf-esque face. I'm astonished it's the first time I hear of this mix because it's just gorgeous
This is the first time you've heard of this mix because this sort of dog would need to run a daily ultramarathon while being given mental maths puzzles. :P
Yes all I could think of is this could be as popular as the Labradoodle (not for the same reasons!)
Appealing looks in a dog are very individual. What you consider beautiful is not what someone else would consider beautiful so mixing breeds intentionally can go very wrong.
The man who first crossed a poodle and a Labrador regretted it later. This is not a mix thst I would never ever consider. I do not find huskies attractive at all! Nor any other Spitz breed as I said beauty in animals is very individual.
It's truly a superb cross mix, I hadn't thought of it before but now I want to know the pro's and con's and if it would truly be a viable/ethical pet.
@@Quint1975 Control of a herding dog but with the drive of an extreme working dog. We added Anatolian and german shepherd to our mix and now I have 140lb versions of that dog. They are noisy, they are seriously active and they nip to get your attention. God bless anything that goes into their pasture.
The really dangerous part is that huskies are fairly smart on their own, it just usually manifests itself in ways that involve shenanigans and tomfoolery.
We found that out ten seconds after we brought our Huskie, a rescue, home...but we miss her soooo much.
Yep. Border collies are smart in an obedient way. Huskies are smart in a mischievous and snarky way. If you're not mindful about it, a husky will end up training you!
@@faefae844 hahaha, I’m well trained by a 9 pound min pin. He’s a big part of my life but I’m
his whole life so I treat him good.
my aunts husky tried to run for president and learned how to speak english they are very smart and very loud dogs.... she even called the vet and cancelled all of her appointments
@@mobstercrow7515 lol good one!
I love how herding dogs always seem to “apologize” after mouthing.
My Aussie will always lick me after mouthing at my hand and give me an apologetic look
I had just put a comment about this exactly... But my dog is a Bugg (Boston Terrier/Pug mix). Go figure lol
I love aussie shepherds. They remind me of border collies.
@@JenA2145 My current dog is an Aussie Shepherd / German Shepherd mix, surprisingly calm but if you get her going she has energy for DAYS, which is great because my 3 year old loves to run her ragged. I will likely have Aussie Shepherds or Aussie Cattle Dogs for the rest of my life, I love the breed.
@@Spartan536 aussie cattle dogs are so cute too! Your dog sounds adorable 😍
@@Spartan536 lucky you. We got the German/Aussie death combo on our pup and ended up with exactly what you’d expect. But the apologizing after mouthing thing is spot on, same goes with heel nipping/herding. He’s a sweet sweet boy who just wants to be good, but my god is he a lot.
I love how he looks but, I can imagine how demanding his care is. He’s definitely for a super active family.
My dog Teddy - considered a 'mutt'- was a mix of shepherd, husky & collie. He was a great dog! So smart and obedient. He had long hair. A beautiful coat. I always bathed him at home. He loved it! I'd ask him.. "ready for your bath?".. and he would excitedly jump into the tub. He really enjoyed being brushed. He lived to age 19. When his time came.. he laid down in his bed and quietly passed away in his sleep. He was a great dog! 😊🐶❤
I have that same mix but he is the polar opposite, loves swimming but absolutely hates the bathtub for whatever reason. He'll hide under his pillow at the mention of giving him a bath.
He is quite well behaved during the bath despite that though.
So sorry for your loss. He sounded like a wonderful doggie.
Teddy was blessed to live a well loved life with you. Please take comfort in knowing that he's your Border Collie angel. 🥰
I love how he wasn't trying to hurt you when he got a little mouthy, just more of a gentle "pls stop" with no ill intent behind it. Such a good boy 🥺
yess
She mostly seemed curious.
That's what I thought too. And then he proceeded to lick for forgiveness.
when you dont listen to the "pls stop🥺Uwu forgiveness licks", they eventually do bite. tht is why she put the muzzle on...
@@invertedangel I completely understand why she put the muzzle on him. I’d do the same in that situation.
I had a Border Collie/Husky mix! She was part of an “oopsie” litter at a local rescue and her name is Esmeralda 💚 I got so lucky with her- she was stubborn, yes, but once she gets into training mode she is unstoppable. Unfortunately my living situation changed, so she lives with my big brother now with a huge yard and a young kiddo to run around with. I check in on her all the time and I miss my girl so much!
I bet she loves the big yard and her playmate
You did the right thing for her by getting her a good home.
I agree with hothot, props to you for doing the right thing. Who knows, maybe one day your situation changes again and she can live with you, until then it sounds like she's in good hands
It's wonderful she's still in the family!
@Claire:
Glad you were responsible as to her wellbeing. A selfish or immature owner would have dragged her out of her best environment. Very good on you 👍
I grew up with a Border Collie Siberian Husky mix & she almost never barked, would sing & hum constantly, she was incredibly sweet & very protective of us. Smartest, most amazing dog I've known to this day, she's been gone 14 years.
Border Collies pure or mixed are beyond amazing. The are not an average dog. My border collie/lab mix crossed the rainbow bridge 3 years ago and hardly a dog goes by not missing her.
@@nancyhopper1522 They have an emotional intelligence that a lot of breeds don't have. I'm sure that when we get to see them again, they'll understand our happy tears. 💙
@@MirandaTheShinigami This is what I like to think, that when we get to see them again, they'll be so happy to see us, too!
I love how in the muzzle he still closely watches what you are doing
I found that part so charming as well, like he wants to just observe what she's doing to his feet out of curiosity 😆
Kai's intimidation tactic! 😁💓
I’m laughing at how intensely he’s staring at what you’re trying to do to his paws at around 2:49
hes like what what is that? mmm interesting
Just making sure she does it right!
He's probably thinking: "I could do that better than her if I only had opposable thumbs." ;)
He's supervising!
'Do I like this?'
i love how gently he bit, like an indication that he’d like you to stop what you’re doing rather than trying to hurt you at all
That's because that wasn't "biting" at all. Mouthing in dogs is like you using your hands to make a point. If a dog bites you know it!
Smol nibbles of disapproval
the part where he suddenly likes the vacuum again because she was going down under kinda felt dirty lol
Crossing a Husky and Collie really makes such a good looking dog, smart as heck, and the ability to never tire out from walks and or play time.
Yes exactly. We had one. A male with the exact attributes you have described. He was so lovely too. ❤
The blow drying oh my heart. He watched closely on how you cleaned his paw pads. He’ll do his own going forward 😁
I was thinking the same! His humans will walk into the bathroom one day to find him with a hair shaver in between his teeth, paw lifted, carefully clipping between the pads, with a look that says "nothing to see here!" 😂🐾👍
I can't imagine how much exercise this dog needs on a daily basis to not go completely neurotic. Good on the owners for seemingly having a very healthy and happy pup given the circumstances!
I take my husky border collie for 2 hours in the woods and about an hour playing fetch daily. Probably walk like 3 miles a day scrambling through thick woods.
He doesn't mind missing a day if it's really nasty out but 3 days being pent up is about the limit before he starts acting up inside. I've spent a decent amount of time training him to be calm inside the house.
I THINK H&K (one husky, one high content wolf hybrid) said his boys go for 8 mile walks every day or they go into furniture-eating mode. I'd imagine it'd be something similar for this guy.
@@GilraenTook it's all in the training. If you train the dog to be calm inside it'll be much easier on you. Malinois are supposed to be super high energy, hard to control blah blah blah but I've seen plenty that are calm inside the house and get energetic outside while not acting out.
I don't get why people think you can't control a husky border collie, if you can't train a dog than maybe don't get one?
My border collie husky has literally never eaten any shoes, sock, clothes, furniture, remotes, garbage or anything even including his puppyhood. He does what he's told, he's easy to train, he's athletic as all get out, he's a problem solver.
I would recommend the mix to anyone who knows how to train a dog and doesn't want an inside dog to sit and watch TV with all day, although mine stays in the truck for 6 or 8 hours a day while I'm at work so he's alright with lazy time as long as he gets to run every 3 days or so. More than 3 days pent up and he doesn't destroy anything, he just wants to play in the house more.
@@mikewhitman745 I think you misread my comment? He keeps his dogs exercised so they don't have tons of excess energy that they have to find an outlet for.
@@GilraenTook no, I got that. Did you misread my comment?
I'm saying if you train the dog to be calm inside it'll be calm inside, my border collie husky is calm inside and wants to play fetch and expel energy outside. He's never acted up inside destroying anything because it's been storming for a few days and he hasn't been out as much as normal.
A properly trained malinois will be calm inside and not all neurotic eating furniture.
The 5 or so wolf dogs I've known through friends have all been calm and didn't need 8 miles of walking a day to keep them from eating the house.
Maybe basing your thoughts about these dogs off of what sounds like either a special case or a poorly trained dog isn't the wisest thing?
Given that Kai is a 1yr old husky mix, that was about as good as it can get. He's gorgeous, curious, and full of energy. Seems like a great dog.
Also, he took the grooming like a champ. Some mouthing that he needed to be muzzled for mainly out of precaution, but honestly? They did an amazing job with him, given he is mixed with husky. He wasn't a high-strung mess either.
I love the look at 1:55. It says, “What am I doing here? I am a savage, a descendant of wolves! I have NO master! But…I do kinda like that this hooman gives me treats and cuddles…”
I love how he slowly bites, like he’s trying not to hurt you.
He is trying not to hurt.
Little "please stop I don't like that, but I don't want to bite you, but I also don't know how to show that I want you to cut that out" nips
Such a gentle boy
He's just telling Mom the truth.
my collie does the same. "i cant talk, but i know how to tell dad to stop"
my GSD does something similar. when she's extremely frustrated with me she gently places her teeth on my wrist and stares at me, as if she's saying "I'm mad and want to bite you but I can't hurt my dad"
I love how Kai swatted that camera away like: "Get that thing out of here!" just like a celebrity swatting a paparazzi's camera away. It was hilarious! 🤣
Lol Kai is not a fan of the "pup-arazzi." 😂
@@GracemarieJohnson 🤣👍🏻

@@GracemarieJohnson you missed the obvious pun. It's pawparazzi. Not "pup-arazzi". Nice laughing emoji, I bet you're the only one who laughs at your jokes.
Lolll the open mouth”bite”, my pup does the same thing. I can literally just sit there with my hand in her mouth like “ok what’s the plan here”
I had this exact mix. I rescued her at 6months & she just passed away at 7years. She was brilliant & gorgeous but plagued by medical issues her entire life.
I miss my girl 😟 🐾🐾
Blessings, Thomas. 😇🐶💞
Clea the Python looks positively foxy in her bandana merch. Look at that expression - girl's giving face for days.

For dayssssssss
😂😂😂
She's a beauty for sure!
She did appear to be posing for that shot. So cute!
The way he slowly advances when he’s about to bite with his mouth open is adorable. I know he shouldn’t be biting but he’s so not sneaky
He's likely doing it that way on purpose, as a warning that he doesn't like the clipping rather than an attempt to hurt.
That's collies, they will push away with nose then hit with paw, then this (lay teeth on you), then nip you, if this wasn't enough warning then teeth are going straight down to bone.
@@andrewgarner2224 Collies are like fiesty office workers that will give you several strongly but politely worded business emails if they don't get their way
He’s so gentle with his protests of discontent! ❤
Border Collies are legitimate sweethearts, I grew up on a farm and we had a border collie named Penny who ran up and down the horse fences, no idea, she just liked playing with the horses I guess.
Such a sweet and well-behaved boy! Also, I'm charmed at the way he tries to nibble at Vanessa's hands but he doesn't mean it threateningly. And how he apologises with mlems after his objections at 2:36. Such an adorable and caring smarty pants!
We had Border Collies growing up and that is such a Border Collie thing to do. It's the "you need to pay attention to me, remember I could be biting you to force you to do this" behaviour from their herding instincts, they just put their teeth on you and don't chomp down unless they are reacting defensively to something which is usually easy to train them not to do if they are domestic dogs and not working dogs since you don't want them to snap at a child that goes for the tail or face like they would a farm animal or predator being aggressive towards them or the herd.
@@CartoonHero1986 My aussie does this too, but usually in a playful way or if she doesn't want her paws touched lol
My Border Collie was a nibbler. She didn't like you to play with her toes, so if jerking her foot away from you didn't work, she slobbered and puppy nibbled the sides of your fingers.
She played rough, but she never hurt me once. She was a very good dog.
My chihuahua mix does this too. He hates people touching his paws so he will very slowly bring his mouth to your hand if you don't stop. As he gets closer he goes slower and slower because he doesn't actually want to bite. He only ever does it if I'm trimming his nails, and i feel a little bad for how adorable i find it
That is just a general behavior for most herding/livestock guardian dogs. Both my Pyrenees mix Eeyore, my German Shepherd Raymund, and my Brittany/blue heeler mix Kaleo would be a bit mouthy but rarely if ever nipped hard enough to hurt.
I was literally counting down the seconds until he started to sing. Imagine my amazement and confusion, when he didn't. But still all drama queen, the face he made at first when hit with the blow-dryer was priceless. Very, very cute and, I'm certain, a nightmare for anyone looking for a quiet companion^^
THANK YOU! Especially when she said "His Inner Huskie"!
That look when you put him in the belly band at 1:54 is hilarious. 😂
He's like, "Damn it..."
His face is like 😑 LOL
What a gorgeous combination! It's cute that even when he didn't want you messing with his paws, he didn't lead with biting.
@Hello there, how are you doing this blessed day?
i have this exact mix! Really challenging to own but a lot of fun, shes 8 years old now and has mellowed out. Honestly if someone did a really good and vetted sports cross of this or a husky heeler i get another. teaching them how to be calm and have rest days helps them out alot.
Mixed dogs are healthier than purebreds anyways. I don't get why everyone wants a purebred dog.
@@neonice
You're right but if all purebred weren't 'pure bred' at the beginning then eventually all would be mutts and then we wouldn't know their true and or potential temperaments.
For example, A Pomeranian Husky PitBull Terrier Wienerdog Chihuahua would be a complete nutcase .... I wonder what it would look like though 🤔 😉🤣
Also, though Merle breeds aren't always healthier than purebred's
@@neonice Depends on the breeder. Some of them out there are awful. But for the most part you're right
@@neonice Many of those disorders that are often attributed to a specific breed are just as likely to be found in mixed-breed dogs, including common health problems such as lymphoma, mast cell tumor, specific cardiac issues, hip dysplasia, and lens luxation to name a few
That's not actually true. Mixed breed dogs are just not tested for all the things purebreds are. Purebreds seem more sick because we know about their problems. But not knowing does not make mixed breeds healthier.
If you do same tests to a mixed breed as to a purebred, it's very likely the puppy has similar broblems as both the parents breeds would.
Like if you mix a boston terrier with a bernese mountain dog, do you think the puppies would be completely healthy without inheriting any problems?
Also true breeders, who breed with the dogs health in priority, need all the testings to make sure the litter's parents create the most healthy puppies. With people who breed mixed breeds just for fun, they could very easily breed two dogs with the same problem and make the puppies have it even worse.
Now if there was a breeder who tested their dogs and did all the things properly but with mixed breed dogs, to create healthy puppies? That would be great.
Unfortunately that is rarely a thing. A few years back when I was looking for a dog (ended up with a mixed breed rescue) I found a website of a breeder who bred short-haired collies with two other breeds, to make puppies that were healthier than all three of those breeds and with the temperaments of them combined. I thought that was really cool, she talked a lot about all the genetic stuff and whatnot so she really seemed like she had fully researched to know what she was doing. She might have also bred purebred dogs in the past so a certified breeder. It bothers me that I don't remember her kennel name.
Also my bad for not knowing the proper terms for things, English is not my first language.
Man that ball python is ADORABLE!! I think mine would just slither right on through, because Pancake has places to be and snake things to do :D
You named your snake Pancake. 😄💛❣️
@@oneminuteofmyday there's a woman who has several snakes and one is also named pancake. In fact all her snakes have food names. One of them is Waffle
@@ShadowSkyX lol Any animal with that sort of name would make me giggle, but, for some reason, it’s especially so with a snake. lol
I wanna get a snake someday and name it ramen or something
Mine would probably do the same thing. I named mine Kodama (after Japanese forest spirits. Cause he has that pattern on his body) Pancake sounds adorable!
Gorgeous dog. It was fun watching you groom him as he's such a character -- glad you're so experienced, though, as his behavior could've ended up with a less experienced groomer being injured.
Also appreciated your comment about backyard breeders -- I'm sorry it seems to have caused enough trouble for you that you had to create a pinned comment addressing it.
Cute snake! It's adorable that someone bought one of your bandanas for their reptile!
As a husky owner I immediately knew he was husky mix from looking at the picture
Edit: his zoomies are so cute, my husky does that exact crazy face when she zoomies, lol
I’m picturing life with a border collie/husky mix and I feel exhausted. They’re both such high energy dogs. Plus, I’ve known border collies who were smarter than some people, and mixing in the drama queens of the dog world to that… O.o
cute to look at but it's a fat NO for me to own one
It's not like mixing the two results in an even higher energy animal.
@@kangeyisgr3at835 yeah….same XD
😢Our borador grieved the death of her little chi mix so we got her a toy that looked like her friend & called it by the name of our lost dog. She slobbers it but doesn’t chew it like all her other toys. Her santa riding a dinosaur is barely hanging on with limbs missing, other toys have many holes, all their squeakers bitten out & most toys must be tossed within a month. She knows this one represents her missing friend, amazing how a dog can grasp the concept.
There's a lot less screaming than what I expected for a husky mixed.
Screaming, crooning, howling, “woo”ing
My husky/ staffie mix only verbally expresses his emotions when he REALLY wants something (like to go outside), is overly excited (when we get home), very upset (being crated or when he was high coming home from being neutered) or is very engrossed with a toy that squeaks. The last two are the only scenarios I've ever heard the awooooos, not from a lack of trying
What a gorgeous boy.
I had a Husky Collie mix too was a great dog that would run for days if we let him or just run with you if you had a motorcycle out in the woods. Cancer got him but this video reminded me of him so much it made me super happy and sad at the same time. He had a heart of gold but was the biggest troublemaker ever. Everyone and their dogs tried to steal him and eventually my brother and his wife did. Then he really got spoiled.
Thanks for the video it brough back a lot of found memories!
...am still in shock that there was no screaming in the tub...
Despite the combination, Kai is a surprisingly mellow dog.
Wait ten seconds the situation changes, we speak from experience!
People see what they want to see in dog "breeds" The reality is behaviours are not correlated with "breeds". Most breeds are less than 200 yo, started by the Victorians.
If you ever actually go to Alaska and look at a sled team, they look nothing like what people envision as a "huskie".
Behaviors are by family, not "breed". The dog has been around for 20,000 years. Their behaviors aren't based on appearance anymore than humans are. There's plenty of genuine research on this.
I had a Blue Heeler/Border Collie mix for many years. She was super smart and it took a long time for us to train her to NOT herd us around by nipping at our heels. She lived to be 14 years old. Miss you Maggie.
Kai was amazing, but the adorable little Ball Python at the end really completed things. I have a couple myself (along with my boas) and they are probably one of the cutest snakes, next to Hognose Snakes. Kenyan Sand Boas are the derp-iest tho lol.
The dogs always look so peaceful when you scrub their face and head. They probably think it's just pets. 💚
their like " Oh, this is ok". NIce.
We call those pets "scritching the brain" at my house. My cat loves it so much that she'll yell at me to do it and cry if I stop.
@@mirih5368 oh my god I'm stealing that name hahaha
You can see how the gears inside his head are turning. A very smart canine.
And very fast . long distance runner...
I have a border collie/husky mix and she is honestly a dream of a dog. She aims to please and picks up on commands, cues, and tone of voice VERY well. She's incredibly smart, talkative, and loyal. They make amazing dogs if you train them right and find out what motivates them. She keeps my husky in line lol
OMG she sounds like Missy Greatness! 😊
I have that attachment for my hose, it makes giving baths so much easier. I love it.
I love how when he got a little mouthy and u told him no he licked your hand as if to say oops I’m sorry I didn’t do that 😂
Yes my husky/border collie cross did the same thing, she would lick to say “please stop” I trained her to lie on her side for nail trims and gave her treats afterwards. As a puppy though she didn’t try to fight me one ounce.
When I was a pre-teen, I had a pure breed border collie. He was the best dog ever. So smart, learned fast, energetic but laid back too. I had so much fun with him. With husky in him, I expected a song but the tap dance made me fall in love with him. If I was still a teenager, I'd get another border collie in a heart beat.
Go and get another one 😊 You deserve another fluffy friend
My family recently adopted a border collie puppy cuz my stepdad wanted help with our sheep since I was in college and my siblings moved out. She's only 5 months, but she is one smart dog. She'll harass you with her frisbees, but she will also tolerate everything and already knows most basic commands. Meanwhile my German shepherd hound mix just whines at you until she gets pizza or her walk in and only listens when she benefits.
His behavior reminded me a lot of my border collie. In my experience, they can be stubborn and resistant to what they don’t like. But they will be communicative and tolerant while making their point clear. I feel like huskies would usually add more melodrama. They often blast their feelings through a megaphone like an Italian soap opera.
@Hello there, how are you doing this blessed day?
There is something incredibly tranquil & serene in watching you groom these beautiful dogs. I can watch it all day lol
a) I can't believe he's part Husky - so quiet! So well-behaved!
b) that ball python is absolutely adorable, best pet of the day ever ~w~
The owners did a really good job socializing and training that dog. He seems very tuned into people and calm enough to suggest that he gets enough exercise and discipline. The farmers we buy meat from have an Australian shepherd mix with a similar personality.
I have a Husky/ rough collie mix. She's gorgeous, an escape artist, hates anything to do with grooming, and possibly part cat. 10/10 would adopt again (even with all the fur).
I just wanna say thanks, you are my insperation and now Ive started washing/grooming at a groomer. its so amazing!
Such a gorgeous animal, I want to pet him so badly and give him my love
A Collie/Husky mix sounds like a breed that's too intelligent for their own good lmao
He is gorgeous!!!
Great video and narrating. Love the flat, sarcastic, truth in story telling format. Its hilarious! ❤
The second she said his breed mixes, I cussed 🤣. The owners must have strapped a jigsaw puzzle to a treadmill at home to keep this one busy
Kai's multicolored toe-beans are the cutest thing on the planet tbh
What a gorgeous mutt! My latest rescue is a cattle dog crossed with some type of shepherd. Smallest dog I’ve ever owned, Finnegan is 45lbs, but he is such a good boy, and handsome too!!
🌸 I love the fact he mischievously thought of biting & you called him out so he started to lick 👅 instead 😂
He’s sooooo naughty, wee on the flowers etc after 🤣
I’m so glad you brought back the aftergroom backyard zoomies! I’ve been missing them and was afraid that you had just replaced them with the ‘pet of the day’s. I love having both :-)
I would guess she skips them when it's bad weather.
I'm floored that this dog handled his grooming as well as he did having Husky in him. Some play bites and tap dancing but no screeching or barking at all :0
One of the most beautiful mixes I've ever seen. I LOVE border collies and Huskies are...pretty :D
The way he runs at you just fills me with happiness, he looks so excited
I correctly called his mix the second I saw him. That collie look is unmistakable. He’s a gorgeous pup, and I think he liked you a lot, even if he was swatting a bit.
stubborn already gives half the puzzle, the rest is easy 🤣
Our husky cross "tap dances" too, when she is excited. Her "I want something" is to leap about two feet straight up, like levitating. We call her the binary dog, she is either ON, 100%, or OFF, out cold.
Killing it with the subtitles . Thx for the smiles
When you said most stubborn, pit bull came to mind. Mine was dumb as a rock and never gave up trying to outsmart me-constant source of hilarity. Yours is an exemplary animal and a good argument for making that mix a new breed.
Oh my god what a good boy I’m going to cry!!! I love his blue eyes. You can tell he’s a smarty pants
Definately not the smartest idea to cross breed these two but the results..chefs kiss😍🔥
That snake is sooo stinkin cute too with her bandana🐍
What a great way to start the day
Best mix everrrrrr. One of my fave vids so far
My grandmother was a dog groomer, and your videos bring back wonderful memories.
I'm sure owning a dog with this mix is not for the faint of heart. A high energy dog needs a high energy owner. What a beauty..I'm a sucker for a dog wearing eye patch.
Clea...wearing the bandana and giving us the snake eye. 🐍
As soon as you said stubborn and smart I knew EXACTLY what breeds it was crossed with 🤣🤣
He looks amazing. Fantastic work.
We had a chowchow - collie mix...another challenging combo!
Kai is beautiful..GREAT JOB!
Smart and stubborn - what could possibly go wrong? Haha, great looking dog!
Add high energy to that equation too.
I have this mix mine in only 25% husky but he can be very stubborn on walks want to be sosical and wants to meet everyone dog or person though sometimes a little suspicious he still wants to sniff them before moving on.
very kind and obedient when we are alone and despite the husky he almost never barks and I have never seen him howl or *talk* he just become 1 year last month. He is very calm inside(mostly) though he can quickly get very excited and playful if we do some activity/play where he can’t stand still but surprisingly manages very well when we have to take a quiet boring day and don’t get restless easily
Aw, he is such a sweetheart. When he got mouthy and after you said “nah uh,” he had the sweetest, most apologetic look on his face. 🥰
That is a big boy
I had a husky lab. He had the most beautiful heart of any animal ive ever been around. Really really smart, supremely loving and gentle, just fantastic. Rip buddy.
I had a Border Collie/English Springer Spaniel/Shetland Sheepdog mix who talked. 75% of the reason we were allowed to adopt her was that I understood that she was talking and not growling. The rescue organisation had her at several meet and greets, and everyone thought she was growling.
Those other people weren't listening to what she was saying, but you were! Probably went something like "Hi. Please love me. Please take me home with you and I will be good always. Promise!" 🐶😊💞And you did! And she was!
@@rodandjudibowen5665 when we went to meet her at her foster home, she basically attached herself to me. She was ready to go home with us immediately.
The breeder just wanted to see the world burn to be honest
God, you can see the high energy as he ran around the backyard. I love aussies and I love huskies, but I don’t know if I’d be up to the challenge of owning a mix.
At least u can admit it whereas some ppl are buying high energy dogs they really cant maintain. This was seems well taken care of tho :)
I had a Husky and Collie mix. He rarely barked, because he chose to talk (Yes, real words. Plenty of Huskies talk). He was also a fantastic escape artist and loved to do things to make my mother laugh. He was the smartest dog I have ever encountered, and he was a stray! It was definitely a blessing to have him in my life.
That is one BEAUTIFUL dog !!!! You once again did a great job with him.
That zoom in on his face when he's enjoying the head scratches and face wash 😍😊 then it got cuter when decides to watch you shave out the paw pads 🤣🤣
So cute also the snake with the bandanna is adorable
I rescued a German shepherd border collie mix years ago. She was smart stubborn and perfect. Dogs are awesome,regardless of how they get here.
Wait, he did way better than I thought!
He is so fluffy and adorbsss!
You did a great job grooming him!
