This brings me back. I had a Saint Bernard for many years. She had to groomed once a month. After her groom you had to tell her how beautiful she was and how good she smelled or she would ignore you until you did. 🤣
I was going to say the same thing we had a male St. Bernard. We didn’t take him to the groomers though, because he had too much anxiety. He really loves to be brushed because I calmed him down but we didn’t put him in a groomer situation because he had too much anxiety, seeing that thumbnail made me up cry we had to put him down December 3, 2021. He lived a good 10 years and his name was Samson. I would sleep with him when he became older on the bathroom floor I wanted to cherish every moment I had left of him. He was the first family dog i had. we put him down because he had a tumor. I came back home from school and even though I knew he was put down while I was at school and for some reason I still thought he was going to be there.
Love dogs w personality so cute ❤
How cute❤😊
@@Star_dogs12my heart goes to you and fam
@Beth. Stop making stuff up.
This girl must not only be a professional dog cleaner, but also communication expert, animal psychologist, safety professional, physically fit, have a control over own feelings and impulses, diplomatic skills for dealing with owners, hygiene inspector and great observer of any second of given situations. I admire her.
Very nice comment. I hope she reads it.
What a great comment! Agree with you on everything. ❤
You summed it up well!
You forgot great businesswoman and marketing expert.
@@ferretyluv And I also forgot that she is a great narrator with super sense of humour. And she is pretty.
It's always hilarious watching Vanessa washing and grooming a dog that is twice her size! 😂
Its always so cute to watch :D
Din't realize quite how big he was until Vanessa stood next to him!
The blower sending that drool flying really captures the St. Bernard experience.
My mother told me that when she was 16, she asked my Nan if they could get a dog. The house was small and the garden was tiny but my Nan agreed to a little dog. My mother went to Battersea dogs home to rescue one. She came home with a St. Bernard because no one wanted him and he was unwell. Once the shock of having a small horse in the lounge wore off, they kept him. So glad they did.
Great job as usual..the boy looked very handsome :)
As a daughter who frequently brought home "WHAT DID YOU DO?!" pets to my startled mother, this story is lovely 😂
My step-son's name is Nelson. The comparison ends there.
Nice story! Your Mom must have been very special! 🐶❣
I was that child who brought home the pets… one such was a Staffy that “followed me home” . She had 10 puppies 2 weeks later. We were only supposed to have her until the puppies were weaned. She stayed with us for another 19 years. We found out she had previously been a fight bait dog. Suzy was a gentle but fierce protector for our family. 70lbs of pure muscle and ❤
I love your story. ❤
He's a charmer, and very good, for a full-grown first timer! The barking didn't seem threatening, just anxious. I bet he's a cuddle monster!
My St. Bernard does the same. His barking is anxiety, nothing aggressive. Our guy wouldn't hurt a fly.
@@chuckjones7218 I met one aggressive St. Bernard in my life. Like really going crazy. I still wonder what the owner did to it, as they're an absolutely harmless breed by design.
@@chuckjones7218mine only barks when she wants attention or a toy. If another dog has her favorite toy, she lets me know about it. It annoys them to the point the eventually give up the toy. Lol
@@drewp.weiner5708🤣😱
@@chuckjones7218😅
Oh man, he actually loved that dryer! Those were definitely happy barks - his tail was wagging the whole time. And he kept trying to do the old bicycle leg 😂
He almost did the leg kick thing dogs do when scratched in a certain place
Another dog expert 😂😂😂
@@majesticscope6782another desensitized troll
wagging is sign of excitement, not especially content.
a wagging tail doesnt always mean happiness.
I'm not a dog owner and don't aspire to be one, but I find these videos strangely addicting. I can't stop watching even the longer videos as Vanessa gradually transforms the appearance of some really challenging clients. With the huge ones--like this fellow here--there's also the element of danger, since the slightest sudden wrong movement on his part could really put her at risk.
Completely agree about these videos to be "strangely addicting".
Vanessa's knowledge, compassion and mastery are absolutely amazing.
Addicting and Therapeutic. I don't have a dog either and love these videos
I'm in the same boat haha.
I don't understand how you have a dog in the house that doesn't get bathed for a year or more. People's homes must smell horrible! I also love watching the transformations.😊
Me too! It feels therapeutic and oddly satisfying lol.
Just wanted to say thank you for recommending the coral brush all the time--I broke down and bought one for my mom's two beastie Maine Coon mixes, and they were actually spooked at first because it was the first time a brush has ever made it past their compacted undercoats to the skin! Got almost an entire cat off of each, and now they're going to be matt free forever.
A brush that doubles your cats? What a great value!
@@fennecfoxfanaticlol😂
It pulls my cats hair. 😭
Wow! Well I'm glad it worked out so well. 🙂
I've noticed that some brushes can do a great job getting through all of the hair, but they also end up scratching and irritating the skin, which is a total bummer. It sounds like this one is perfect. 👍
@@DawnieGAll brushes pull at first. You might need a mat splitter as well. As a kid, I groomed my fat cats by just cutting out the mats with scissors and then brushing. They were shorthairs so this wasn’t a big deal.
That was generous of him to tip you prior to service! He must have known you’d do a great job 😊
😂😂
😂
well, I am sure the owner had seen her youtube videos, so the owner knows the dog is in good hands.
😅😅😅
@@kikib.4519 lol it’s a reference to her previous videos. Whenever the animals poop in the yard or her shop, she says that they “left her a generous tip” 🤣
Nelson is a sweetheart ❤ but when he barks even I jump and he’s only here virtually! What a transformation! Beauty boy at the end! Great job! ❤❤❤
He is such a sweetheart! I LOVED how his ears moved Everytime you spoke. He was really paying attention! He's just a big ole cuddle bug!
What a good boy , I love big dogs , I had a great pyrenees , he was groomed every 6 weeks .
It’s so important to get a pup used to being touched on the legs and paws. The vet draws blood for screening and nail trims. It is one thing we have always done with our pups from day one of coming home.
he did fine til that one particular nail.
Good advice 👍🏻
That was very smart of you to condition them as puppies!
Most habits - good or bad - are formed when they young. That's the best time to break the bad ones & reinforce the good ones. ❤🐕❤️
I've done everything recommended on several channels but Boy still won't comply.
@@cassieoz1702 Some dogs are just like that. They get an idea in their heads and that is it. No, you may not touch my toes.🐕💜
If it wasn't for the drooling I'd love to have a big bear like him. He's beautiful, and he was a pretty darned good boy!
And that drool dissolves paint. I know. I've had 11 Saints. Great dogs but extremely fragile.
Drooling is where I draw the line! Not even kitty drool!!! No way! ❤😅❤
But he is so sweet! ❤😊❤
@@martyrose, I have had 2 female Saints and they hardly ever drooled: my German Shepherd mix drooled far more than the saints did! We bought tge first one from a pet store ( not something I'd do again, knowing what I now do about puppy mills) and she only lived to 6, taken by heart disease and cancer, but she was the gentlest, most maternal dog I've ever had, she loved children and cats, everyone and everything. Our second Saint was a rescue and she was extremely agile and athletic, good with people, not so good with strange dogs, but made it to 10 before her hips gave out. She was extremely active and energetic.
@@goodun2974 Yes. I've had droolers and non droolers. Most of my Saints were extremely docile but I did have one you couldn't trust and was a fighter. She was my longest lived. She lived to be 14. My youngest died at 7 from cancer. That's when I stopped vaccinating and buying commercially produced dog food. Just like people, they were all individuals with their own personalities and quirks
I loved every one of them.❤️
@@martyrose , I have 2 rescued Anatolian Shepherd mixes now, a 90 pound female and 120 pound male. They're great with complete strangers, although the female is very particular about other dogs ---- extremely playful with some and aggressive with others, and yet she's extremely cuddly with children and completely strangers. They're easy to walk, and unlike my Saint Bernard's I've never had to use a Gentle Leader on the Anatolians.
You have one of those professions that people appreciate the results of but don’t really know what goes into it. Kudos to you for letting us see how hard working and skilled dog groomers are.
Nelson seemed to be tolerant of his front paws being touched, but his back ones, he was as skittish as a cat on a hot tin roof!😊❣️ What a beautiful dog!
Looks like it might be time to renovate & expand the shower 😅 lots of absolute units in there lately. I think the puddle on the floor out in front of the shower gets bigger every time!
a drain right in the entrance might do the trick as well haha
Before my divorce, I turned my garage into a dog shower since we had 5 dogs. I put a bigger drain in, hung harnesses from the crossbeams, and had lukewarm water from the utility sink with the same nozzle she uses. Dried them with a shop vac, on which I put had a sound muffler for the dogs and myself. It was a great setup.
On my own, I have a bathtub that doesn't really work and no lt nearly enough water pressure to penetrate a double coat. Gonna have to take them to a pet wash or groomer these days.
The running commentary is always great.... I cackle way too hard.
"Turn this way" *grunts*
What a huge job for this groomer! She’s always so kind and patient with her animal clients.
I got frightened when he barked at you when you tried to clip his paws 😅 I really admired you for taking such great care of those animals even though you dont charge them at any cost. Thank you for the good deeds!
He's such a weird giant dude. Probably the first Bern I've seen with so much energy and sass, they usually just look like they're about to melt.
Lol as you put the Happy Hoodie on, he was so good and patient, until you said '"And if you don't like it, we shall remove it". He seemed to think "Oh, I have a choice here?" and tried to take it off. 😂
Nelson is so handsome & did so well for his first ever groom! That said, his little whine at the end like a little puppy sounded so out of place from such a large guy. LOL That was so adorable to me.
i’m pretty sure that was her making that noise to try to get his attention for the camera, she’s scary good at making dog noises lol
Nelson is adorable! he probably just had to do a nervous poo-poo before getting groomed.
he is the sweetest and cutest big boy. it’s amazing how good you are with all critters, but especially the really big dog breeds ❤
you’re definitely a dog & cat whisperer.
I used to live in Bern, Switzerland and as a child I would always go to the Natural History Museum to see Barry! (taxidermised St. Bernard) If you google “Barry Saint Bernard dog” you can see what the breed looked like in the early 1800s. They say Barry rescued over 40 people during his time as a mountain rescue dog. 😊
Seeing Barry was a surprise for me, mostly because it was shocking to see how much the breed has changed. He was a fit, solid dog, and modern St Bernards are so soft and saggy in comparison that it’s impossible to imagine them doing any kind of job. ☹️
Sadly most of the purebred dogs have been ruined by breeders.
@@VelvetWurmWow, you are right! Barry looks like solid muscle, doesn't he? The St. Bernards of today are still muscular, but Barry looks a bit closer to the athletic body of the Boxer or the Doberman than the current breed.
Thank you for sharing this! 🤗
Thank you for the suggestion. That was fascinating!
That is definitely a full Nelson.
😂
Your jump cut to Nelson losing his fluffing mind at the nail clipping just about made me spit out my coffee. I continue to love your cheekiness. Absolute gold
That calm voice and confident reassurance helps, make all the difference!
A lot of young people desire to be content creators & social media influencers. But those creating extremely useful content, educating in addition to entertaining, are quite rare in my opinion. It's also quite rare to see someone so devoted to giving back. Thank you for being such a blessing to ALL of us, Vanessa. ❤❤❤ What a great positive example you've set! 😘💞🐕🦺💞🥰
Most so-called social media "influencers" are only looking to monetize their viewers and subscribers, and/or feed their narcissism. The best content creators, however, approach what they do like *teachers*, sharing knowledge and experience.
Yes!
Best content comes from the heart, with obsessive curiousity and drive to know all and do the very best.
This is gourmet grooming, I bet if she'd accept paying customers she'd have a good thing going, just this is BETTER>
@@blacksheep9505 , or, much worse, they call 9-1-1 with fake "emergencies". Like that young woman in Georgie who claimed to see a toddler running around loose and subsequently faked her own kidnapping. Whenever I see somebody like her who appears obsessed with posting selfies, my brain recognizes it as narcissistic behavior. Anyway, it costs a ton of money to have policeman searching for a lost toddler or a kidnapping victim, and pulls them away from solving other crimes or helping other people who are truly in distress.
I totally agree! Being an animal lover, Vanessa is fabulous! She assesses each dog or cats reactions and adjusts what needs to be done to keep her and the client safe and comfortable to get the groom done. And, I love the description of each breed of dog or cat she grooms. Very educational. I would definitely bring my cat to Vanessa to groom. 😻
What a well-behaved, big, beautiful, giant fur baby!
Well done Vanessa.
Jurassic dog
The beekeeper hat kills me everytime! 😂how ingenious
You know you are in your happy place when you are in the bath with a beautiful dog talking about poop and the consistency. Nelson has a great temperament. Thank you for sharing.
He WAS itchy, he stomped his foot when you used the blowdryer.
Your patience is amazing. ❤
This reminds me of my visit to their birthplace - the St. Bernard hospice on the pass between Switzerland and Italy. Even the puppies were huge! I remember the distance between the ears of an adult dog were wider than my outstretched hand.
Unfortunately the monks no longer raise saints there, they have been transferred to another entity who is continuing the breeding. The tourists were a big problem apparently,with people annoying or otherwise trying to touch the dogs, they had to install a glass wall to stop it at one point.
I went there and visited, it was quite a drive, bought one of the St. Bernard carved sling shots for my son and they took it away at the airport, quite stupid.
Newfoundlands St Bernard's mountain dog
Can you imagine the relief people had upon seeing them in the snow!
Vanessa seems to always know what to say to their fluffy clients, understands them very well. Great job on this huge Bernie.
That bark is crazy intimidating. Youre so brave 😮
There's no such thing as a creature so majestic that won't look ridiculous in the happy hoody, and he knows that...
😂😂😂
Vanessa did it, she said "eh". How Canadian of her. Nelson watered your plants for ya, what a good boi.
He seemed to really enjoy the bath part. As soon as he got wet he just stood there and looked like he was enjoying the feeling. And most of the drying...he was enjoying his first ever Spa Day.
This lady not only has the patience of a saint but she also has the 'voice', the voice that calms such a big guy, a true testament to someone who knows what she's doing. BRAVO!!
I don't know if I've ever seen a dog enjoying the dryer this much.
I have a saint too, very laid back, won’t hurt a flea and yes they grunt and groan nothing to worry abt Vanessa.
Hi Vanessa, I think Nelson really loved the dryer. He got his foot going and salsa dancing. Some saint Bernards just bark a lot. Especially when happy or excited (another good example of this is Lily from the asher house, she barks alot) stunning transformation 😍
Nelson is a floofy bundle of sweetness! Loved the head tilt at the start of the video. He's a very good boy whom I would love to hug!
oh he did SO well for a first timer! I didn't realize St. B's had double back dew claws. Great job on a beautiful giant!
You say "nasty critter" with affection. So cute!💕
I have a big soft spot for St. Bernie's. My Aunt had one and every summer when we would go to visit her in Colorado I looked so forward to playing with him! Miss you Max, you were the best! ♥🐶👍
He was incredibly good for a first groom. A darling big boy 😊👏🏼
"It wasn't the most solid of poops" said with snarky side eye. 🤣🤣
What a beautiful, trim boi Nelson is. ❤
Ah yes, the anxiety poop.
I do love seeing the dog's (or cat's, or rat's) original fur colouring come out during the groom. They go from a uniform yuck colour to all these shades and highlights. It's so lovely.
I have a brindle mix and it's really cool to see all the different variations in her coat. Nobody talks about orange stripped dogs, lol.
@@toneddef Oh my, you unlocked a memory. My old mum's dog, and I'm going back 30 years now, was like that. Yes, the brindle is beautiful - really striking. And just after a bath? Stunning.
Those little wiggles and shakes while he was being blow sdied is the cutest thing ever 😍❤️
He was trying to help!
hes such a happy boy!! he was confused but also loved the dryer LOL
The little foot stomp when she started drying his neck ❤
He looks so much better after! I like how the owners have kept him lean, that will help him live longer and have less joint issues!
Yet he is a 4 1/2 half year male who has never been professionally groomed, I mean wth.
@@texasgirl6000He’s a rescue most likely.
Many people groom their own dogs. Professional grooming is expensive!
I would like to know how they kept him lean. My dog is too heavy. She has to have special food due to allergies .She is not losing weight although we have cut her to 3 cups. She is a 125 Neufie/ Berner.
@@texasgirl6000 I mean if you can keep your dog in pretty good condition by grooming them yourself, and professionally groom as needed that's good enough. Like in this case, owners probably though he needed professional groom. While the dog wasn't in best condition, it also wasn't bad. And who knows what the condition at home is. Maybe for some reason they could not groom him properly recently and decided to take him to professional instead.
Finally a professional groomer who knows something about dogs and understands them! Great job.
not a dog person myself, but your content is 1) entertaining, 2) educational, and 3) funny in a weird sort of way - you have a definite 'way' with animals for sure, it's kinda refreshing to hear you talk to them and see their responses...
How can you not be a dog person??? I think you’ll end up being a dog person. You won’t be able to stop it.
Oh my gosh - he loved getting his chest blow dried! That back leg started thumping with joy !😊
And then he wanted to direct ‘Higher! More to the left! Do my chest again!’ 🤣
He loves the dryer!! It’s scratching all his itchy spots!! Vanessa, you are the absolute best. I love your patience and your grooming skills never cease to amaze me!! Your videos are all amazing,but, my all time fav was your doodle shave down. That dogs’ gratitude and relief as that blanket of hot,dirty mess was coming off was so “happifying” I almost cried🤣. You are the best!!!!! ❤❤❤
I love these gentle giants. They're so lovable.
Nelson is a sweetheart ❤. So beautiful and majestic.
Obsessed with the big "scary" dogs looking cranky in their happy hoodies 🤣
They are beautiful dogs, but that drool, uuck
These videos always put a big friggin' smile on my face. Props to you for what you do.
Beautiful dog, great job as usual Vanessa. It is fun to watch you manipulate some of these giants who are bigger than you are😁
I stumbled upon your channels last evening and spent a few hours watching videos. I don't why, I want intrigued by them. Found them very entertaining and relaxing. I love dogs, but am not a dog owner. I was also impressed by your providing you excellent services for free. I'm so glad that you are able to do that and thought it only appropriate to support this effort with at least a subscribe and like.
Same here. I'm not a dog owner but I love watching her groom these dogs especially the really large breeds. Her channel showed up in my feed sometime during covid and I'm so glad it did!
❤❤❤😊
I think it's her hilarious commentary 😂
Welcome! It’s not hard to get hooked! Cute animals and a real professional at work doing what she’s good at to benefit the community.
My favorite! Saints are pretty 'talkative' dogs. My saints all grunted during baths and barked when I hit the sweet spots with brushes or the dryer that they can't reach.
I noticed that it's almost always that underside when he starts backing.
The look on the dogs face when she started spraying his rear end was "this so embarrassing i don't even know her "
This was the first time I've seen the "top" of the shower - and I've seen Vanessa wash some of her really big customers. Vanessa, you did an amazing solo job on this massive dog. Especially, since he was new to the "Vanessa Spa Experience".
It is always inspiring to watch someone do what they are passionate about, while teaching the rest of of us.
Thank you.
Special lady and a big special baby ❤️
Well,done, Vanessa, for doing your normal great job on a big dog that’s never been professionally groomed before and doing it without assistance. Nelson looks magnificent and his behavior for a first-timer was really good.
Have you ever considered creating the book of dog? Tips on grooming at home, behavior to look for, breed information, etc? Illustrated with happy hoodie pictures? Maybe a newsletter or blog people could subscribe to?
Absolutely amazing job. I think a huge part of his comfort level in letting you do most anything to him, comes from your comfortable position mentally. You are relaxed and this makes him open to the whole procedure. I would simply die to have a dog like this. Though at 70 he would constantly be knocking me down. So......its fun to watch you do your thing and experience seeing these huge dogs. I admire your work...and look forward to seeing more dogs having their bath and being cared for by someone who really understands them.
When I was a child, (60 years ago!) St Bernard’s were very popular dogs. Unfortunately they were bred badly and became unpredictable instead of the originally calm temperament. I am hoping this has changed back!
Even though this is his first professional grooming, his hair looks like his owners worked on him themselves. He is in pretty good shape, could be worse.
Nelson was so happy, he showed his gratitude by watering the plants lol
Damn I can’t imagine how much your back must hurt every day 😅 definitely takes a tough person to be a groomer
He was such a lovely boy but it’s like watching you groom a bear 😂
"He was such a lovely boy but it's like watching you groom a bear" took the words right out of my mouth! There's so much trust placed in the dog and it's so scary when they are that huge.
It’s hard to remember he’s a dog 😅
Vanessa, I especially love seeing you with a doggie that outweighs you. 😄😄😄
This made me miss our Saint Bernards. 😭 They were such good boys. Our second Saint would blow out his undercoat like mad every spring. We would take him outside and brush him for an hour to keep it from getting all over the living room. At the end of the hour, it looked like there had been a snowstorm and the birds would come grab the fluff for their nests.
We have 2 Great Pyrenees. Family always asks that we send the spring & summer "snow" pictures when we comb them out. We also hook clumps of fur to trees, bushes and fence holes for the birds. Day later they are all gone. Usually birds grab clumps as we move around the yard.
He did very well, although he was clearly anxious. You are absolutely calming, very good instincts and observations.
Thank you for showing the effort it takes to groom big dogs--helps me understand the work required of my groomer and the value of regular care.
Most fluffy dogs almost disappear when they're wet but Nelson is a lot of dog under his floof.
Nelson is good boy indeed. He looks great after the grooming. He reminds me of a St.Bernard few years back who coincidently made me forgo my unwrapped chocolate bar near a confetti shop and boy, was he so happy and enjoyed eating it. Such a majestic pup.❤
The little leg thump!!! That has my heart
Nelson is so cute.
Nelson: Mam could you please aim the dryer at the itchy spots.
Beautiful animal. My sister & brother-in-law had x2 at the same time. A love of slobber & fur evident. A gentle breed but can be stubborn & with attitude. & this observation coming from a husky owner. Love your videos & the educational commentary that you always provide.
It's the Mastiff side of them showing through. Newfies are the same way. They won't generally hurt a fly, but if they decide they aren't doing something, they aren't, and they are big enough that most people can't really make them do it either lol. I love them both, the big hard headed goofballs that they are.
That was my childhood dog. I always remembered her as gentle giant with a sassy attitude. And she only liked one game, escape the yard and play catch me if you can.
She loved teasing us around the block. Each time we got close, she would run a few feet away, look at us while we tried to catch up & the cycle would repeat 😅
@@jesmasa1 That sounds like my husky, escaping, running but not so far that I can't see him, him staying there just sniffing the grass, etc. till I get within 10-12 feet away before taking off again and repeating the process. If there's people around, he'll go up to them for pets, but unless they grab his collar, he takes off again just as I get there... 🤣 I have to question if he just decided to take me for a walk to explore where I never took him on a walk, because that's exactly where he would go every...single...time, including across a 6 lane plus turn lane major road which had my heart in my throat! I moved after he did that twice, even though he knew how to cross without getting near any cars. I had taught him on walks as a 10 month old puppy to stop at roads to make sure there was no cars coming and to wait if there were, and as smart as he is, I think it stuck with him. He would be pretending to just be sniffing something on the side of the road, but there were no cars coming when he ran across.
@@Zoobamafoo lol yup I'm pretty sure she allowed us to catch her only when she decided the game was over. You're so lucky you had a husky. I used to see a beautiful husky on my way home from school. Sitting on the front porch like it was a throne, observing its subjects.
Wow, if a husky owner says a dog is stubborn, that says something. I always thought of St. Bernards as big protective walruses who loved kids.
What a pretty boy! God bless you for taking such tender care of this big furry angel.
so much love , thank you!
Nelson gets the most handsome good boy award! Congratulations, Nelson! ❤🏆I even like the interesting barks you made when getting blow dried. You've got some sass Nelson, but not too much. Just the right amount. 😊
For his first groom, he is a saint.
Bernard
Lol
@@rosebearcat 😂
I love watching how calm and confident you are even with the big “iffy” dogs. ❤
That was fun to watch. Nelson was such a good dog. He was pretty calm when you clipped his paws and his coat looked so clean and fluffy after the shower! Beautiful!
Nelson: "Getting groomed for my screen test for the Cujo remake..."🤪
Nelson's a very good boy for the bath! I hope he stays good for everything else too...the title, however, tells me otherwise!
As an autistic person, these videos are so nice to watch as the water sound and how calm you are is incredibly soothing! I've even accidentally picked up the way you say "sorry" as a part of my echolalia, particularly towards animals!
Edit: Woohooo!! Good job Nelson, even if he was a bit of a barker!
I think he sang the song of his people, late in the groom. 😂 ❤
I’m also neurodivergent and these videos are so pleasing for me, as well as informative. Learning about the different breeds and their unique personalities is so interesting.
Bless you for your work Nelson looks amazing!
I love St. Bernard They are my favorite dog breed. They are just so cute they have big heads and they are just so sweet and adorable 100% the cutest dog in the world I want a St. Benard so bad ❤🥰
he is SO well behaved for the first groom after years without one in life! such a sweetie
I have a Saint Bernard myself and he is the sweetest, gentlest animal I've ever seen, including to other animals. He doesn't even bark when deer approach him in the backyard. Nevertheless, he hates getting his nails trimmed and I need to feed him a "peanut butter surprise" treat before we go to the groomers. The surprise is the 800mg of Trazodone.
Has he worked it out yet?
@@imisstoronto3121 He's quite good about the nails now, but I still give him the Trazodone. He's a big animal, 180lbs, and so I want to give the groomer as much help as I can.
@@peterm246Why does the dog need a dose of 800 mg of Trazodone? Even if it weighs 180 lbs, the usual dose for a 75 kg human is 100 mg (300 mg is the dose of the PR tablet) 😮
@@soso4169 it's given over two doses, each does being four 100mg tablets, one the night before and one the day of the trimming. I'm not a vet so I just follow what was prescribed. He shows no I'll effects beyond being a bit groggy.
@@soso4169Not all drugs affect animals, or even all people, the same. The best thing to do, of course, is follow the vet's advice, which OP said they're doing.
What a beautiful job you did, and Nelson did so well for his first groom ❤
This was such a fun video! Loved every minute of it. Thank you for sharing 🥰
Nelson is gorgeous! And he was a really good boy for his grooming session. I love my St. Bernards, just big teddy bears!
Julie, couldn't help but envision tile floors with drooly marks and having to tiptoe around to avoid slip-and-fall! 🤣🐶💓
