Vanessa is hilarious! ❤ her 👊❣️

[@infinityfox3788]

Malamute's are actually quite different than huskies but they are still part air raid siren

[@jslferrell]

I heard this in V’s voice.

[@janetmcneil5503]

❤❤❤

[@sherrieludwig508]

I have a mostly (by appearance and shedding) husky mix that needs to turn her husky card in. She is nearly silent, I have heard her bark or whine only when she is asleep and dreaming. Also, the Nordic breeds often are considered aloof, mine is glued to me, and an attention hog.

[@IrisGlowingBlue]

That tracks

[@pamanderson1417]

My Malamute' s favorite comment is woooo, woooo, woooo!

[@DeannaBaileytheRavensFan]

Didn't take him long to start singing Alaskan Malamute Concerto No. 42. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@youarebymyside]

"he will not be shedding" and the BOOM, FURNADO!

[@jaroslaval9159]

Despite not liking the brush, he sniffed and licked the hand holding the brush. I melted!

[@sophiabright8371]

Me too!!! ❤❤❤

[@kendrawhite4639]

That's an appeasement gesture, aka I don't want you to do that and maybe if I lick you, you'll get it away from me.

[@alyssaburrell9866]

I like how she said she didn’t think he’d shed much but then he gave us an F 3 furnado

[@lisastenzel5713]

Hm...I thought that was the extremely tiny furnado 😮 Seen much worse

[@seonaelizabethcoster8465]

It's always more fun when the Furnado rating is a surprise. 😂

[@CA-mv2ky]

This is my dog, sweet and gentle boy. We will be getting him check. He does not like brushing regardless of his skin issues.

[@v_is_geeking]

HAHA "I'm telling on you at pick-up" You're the best, Vanessa 😂

[@dianerobbins1285]

I bought your happy hoodie for my lad who was terrified of the dryer, he fell asleep! I was amazed, thank you!

[@Passion84GodAlways]

YES! the song of his people in under 2 minutes! 🥰

[@LisaDiazAppleLisa]

He’s an excellent singer

[@heatherfeather1293]

I LIVE for that song LOL

[@jessflorviva]

Even with the title, I wasn't expecting "I'm a dumba**" 😂 looking forward to your podcast already!!

[@frankfuller975]

[@scruffy-thejanitor]

I burst out laughing 😂

I love how Vanessa comforts the dogs when they start whining

[@livie1967]

[@tadcastertory1087]

Yep.

[@daliahkrause9990]

Yes it was 😅😅😅😅😅

[@Passion84GodAlways]

Yes

[@loricat5606]

Indeed

[@haggielady]

Supposed to be, I think. So we can adore him!

[@patrickgriffiths889]

"I'm telling on you!" LOL. Hope they get those symptoms checked by a vet. Alopecia , urinary incontinence, and skin issues can be symptoms of Addison's disease.

[@vrsalcedo7245]

Or Moto is a 65 year old woman who's just getting old, like me.

[@ejtappan1802]

​@@vrsalcedo7245 --- OMG, I had the same thought, I just wasn't brave enough to post it. LOL you are my hero!

[@TurquoiseInk]

I hope we get an update on Moto!

[@deanfirnatine7814]

Cushings disease runs in Malamutes as well

[@timothyabelovsky2235]

i showed this too my cousin who is a vet based on video she would say dog probably has cushings not adddisons

[@nylarobinson4508]

"I'm telling on you at pick-up" 😂

[@ElaineWood-f2t]

Poor Moto! He has a lovely voice, and he was generous about singing the song of his people while being blow dried! He's a beautiful pup! ❤

[@kathrinekerns8398]

He was singing the song of his people and tapdancing too. What a pretty boy.

[@Jen7867]

It makes sense, but I had no idea about the urine smelling stronger for non-neutered vs neutered males. The education you give us is one of the main reason why I became a regular watcher of your channel. You look very handsome, Moto! ❤ And I enjoyed hearing your beautiful singing voice! 🎵🎶🎵🎶🎶

[@elliottross3691]

Just like intact male cats

[@GaylaRoof]

Yeah, justlike unspayed male cats that spray, it REALLY smells bad !!!!

[@Skip6235]

Yeah, I have a neighbor with an intact German Shepard Dog and I can tell when he’s been in the elevator recently even if they’ve already left because the smell is so strong

[@polycatmagic1236]

Don't worry folks, the sound comes in after a few seconds 😅

[@Ginger51]

“ remember when I said he wouldn’t be shedding? I’m a dumb@$$.” I’m laughing out loud ! Love your conversations that you have with your clients.

[@raehester224]

I LOVE the fact you said I’m telling on you at pick up like he’s a naughty child at nursery xxx

[@ktsls82]

"I'm telling on you at pick up." So cute!

[@Moose6340]

Anybody else take a look at his fur and suddenly get Phil from Life With Malamutes vibes? I think they said Phil had Cushing's disease, not just alopecia. RIP Phil.

[@miningmama7379]

Yep !

[@Clavel688]

Our beloved Phil...😢

[@SandraNelson063]

My thoughts as well.

[@aesaphyr]

Yes, I am actually surprised there aren't more comments about Phil! Rest in peace, Phil. Technically "alopecia" is a symptom, it just refers to hair loss of any cause. But people tend to use the term alopecia to refer to an autoimmune condition which specifically attacks your hair follicles and causes the hair to fall out. So technically Phil did have alopecia in that he had hair loss... but he didn't have the autoimmune hair loss, his was due to hormone deficiency, in his case Cushing's (lack of cortisol).

[@outbreakperfected5704]

He’s with his fellow angels now 😢😢😢❤❤❤

[@Xxluvable94xX]

“Remeber how I said he wasn’t shedding? I’m a dumb**s ” XD I laughed so hard I almost cried

[@misskit866]

I love it when your husky clients sing the song of their people.

[@GeorgeD1]

"He will not be shedding." Seconds later: 🌪🌪🌪

[@sandrafaith]

He's a beautiful boy! Hope his skin issues get cleared up soon.

[@glossaria2]

LOL I knew malamutes had sing-songy voices, but his bark actually sounds like a human saying the word "bark." 😆

[@julialoustalot3249]

For a moment I was thinking “Wow not much singing from this dog. Oh he just started singing, never mind.” 😂

[@1GoodWoman]

He is quite a conversationalist 😊. Very happy to hear about your podcast. Thanks for doing it.

[@sophiabright8371]

I'd go to a PawPera if Moto was the lead character!!! Beautiful tone!

[@FITZIEBLUE]

He tried So Hard to go along with the program. Such a handsome looking guy; good tips for the owners as always

[@maomuller3378]

"Time to wash your face" (shakes head no)

[@cathyspiller7154]

Sometimes Cushings Syndrome causes hair loss. And it happens in Mals alot.

[@ladyjustice1474]

It happened to Phil from life with malamutes who passed several months ago.

[@cathyspiller7154]

U

[@cathyspiller7154]

Yea I follow them too. Cried for a week He loved them all so much.

[@TheBaumcm]

Both Addison’s (underactive) and Cushing’s (overactive) can impact hair due to the affect the adrenal gland and cortisol can have on protein uptake. You need to do a panel to know for sure.

[@deniserobinson8294]

Yeah, I have an unaltered cat. He keeps marking my couch. It is a hard smell to get out. This is why he is getting his giblets removed. 😊

[@GaylaRoof]

Good for you!!! But they can still spray. My vet said I should get it done before they start spraying. Mine almost totally stopped, tho. It might take a while, tho. GOOD LUCK! 😊

[@deniserobinson8294]

@user-qz8wo6fe3s Yes, I know that unfortunately, they can still spray. My family had a male cat years ago that still sprayed although he was fixed. All of the other fixed males we had didn't. I'm really hoping he leaves my couch alone after 😓😖🤞

[@rokelle_2012]

​@@deniserobinson8294 The longer you leave them unaltered the more likely they are to continue to mark and be territorial when they are older. I think with cats it is best to get them neutered ASAP even if they're more likely to get chonky. Our Spooky whom we just recently helped cross the rainbow bridge didn't get fixed until he was close to a year and a half and he was pretty lean his whole life but he would mark things when he'd get angry with us, such a pain to get out of anything, I'm still finding items he'd peed on and cleaning them. Get the Nature's Miracle enzyme cleaner and the laundry booster if you have articles that need washed. It's been a huge help with us getting the cat urine smell out of everything.

[@feoltmanns7624]

My neutered cat once shot a stream of pee straight into a bowl of potpourri in front of 3 eye witnesses. 😂

[@MrsVrba]

Maybe try Feliway after the operation? It might help by spreading around calming pheromones. Worth a shot! 😊

[@llchapman1234]

I was expecting a singing drama queen and he did NOT disappoint 😂😂😂

[@tadcastertory1087]

Malamutes are just a large Husky, so he was never going to be silent.

[@kitkatboard]

They're usually a little quieter than huskies but still a nordic breed 😂

[@jacksmith-vs4ct]

having had both worse are soo much worse

[@taylorlibby7642]

Not my experience at all. My Mallies have all been much more laid back than any Husky I've ever met. I always imagine them with surfer dude voices.

[@theupson]

@@taylorlibby7642 yeah between my parents' homes as a kid and on my own ive owned 2 malamutes and a boatload of huskies. they're practically at opposite ends of the drama spectrum

[@UltimoDogLover]

Very different from a Husky.

[@nickr6926]

As a Minnesotan, I appreciate the "what's it all aboot" :) Bless you Vanessa!

[@emoliver80]

I dont know where you find the time and motivation to do all that you do. Two channels, fundraisers, volunteer work, creating your own products, now a podcast.... whats did i miss?! I envy your hard work, dedication, motivation, and love for animals. ❤

Thanks for another Furnado. I also love the personalities that the Husky's (Alaskan Malamutes)have.

[@fraukeschmidt8364]

Would you look at that face! ❤ He is absolutely adorable.

Singing the oft neglected third verse of the song of his people.

[@jamcgowan1095]

His cries during the dryer sound like WOE! WOE!

I love malamutes - I'm drinking coffee and whining in solidarity with this cutie. I'm glad you are sharing your findings with his person you are awesome!!

[@Tigglytoot]

He is such a beautiful dog.

[@SuzanneOost-dc2yh]

Love love Malamutes! When we lived in Barrow Alaska our neighbor had a huge bad beautiful malamute named Bo! When he stood and put his paws on my husband’s shoulder he was almost as tall as my husband and he’s 6’2””!!

[@kimwells8395]

Just showered my two yesterday with fluff off line. They are the softest ever. Paws done as well. This is all thanks to you because of all the videos I have watched. My pups might have not liked it but were not anxious because I was calm and they could trust me. So thank you so much for helping me.

[@tatiananikulina7917]

A very talented singer. He has excellent voice skills!

[@Railroadersbrat-1]

I love hearing them sing the song of their people - it brings me to tears because I can't stop laughing!

[@Tiffany.Elwood]

I really want to see you do a corgi blowing their coat. I'm always amazed how much fur they have. lol

[@kategrossi8717]

For the dogs that "don't like" brushing.. maybe try a different brush? My husky absolutely hates those types of brushes, but if i use any other brush, she doesn't mind at all. I use a terminator, undercoat rake, comb, and a regular hair brush and she does great with those. I've never had a dog that has tolerated those slicker brushes.. and quite honestly, i wouldn't either.

[@B4nkruptt]

Omg can’t wait for the podcast!!! I absolutely love you & your channel. The work you do is absolutely incredible and so sooo heartwarming, whilst being informative too! Thank you for sharing your skills and expertise and creating opportunities that help so many charities and people (and dogs!) in need!

[@AKAhoy]

As malamutes and huskies age, we see a lot of them develop a seasonal flank alopecia up here in Alaska. Even my northern inuit at the ripe age of 10 has begun to develop SFA. Especially in dogs who live more north, where the daylight hours change drastically in the seasons.

[@paulaenandrelauppe48]

Starting a pawcast, nice!❤

[@melissatapley4527]

Too cute when you told him you were going to tell on him at pickup....lol❤ Looking forward to the pod cast.

[@eddiehayes1523]

My Chihuahua mix had sinilar issues with his skin and it was due to insufficient fatty acids in his diet. His coat looked a little like this except Monty was black, tan and white and had a short coat. An unusually dense coat for a Chi mix as he was ⅛ Pomeranian.

[@daveogarf]

Ahhhh, the "Song of His People!" Neat! And a rather accurate rendition of a steam locomotive labouring up a hill (during drying).

[@Alvarin_IL]

Smell, patchy hair-loss and sensitive flaky skin sound very much like what my dog was having. Got three weeks of steroids and two week antibiotics to get rid of it. Primary cause was food allergy.

[@Skip6235]

Why would the vet prescribe antibiotics for an allergy?

[@Mokiefraggle]

@@Skip6235 Might have been for secondary symptoms, especially if the hair loss and flaky skin was getting infected from any agitated scratching it might have caused.

[@Alvarin_IL]

@@Skip6235 Sorry for multi-edits, I'm not good at expressing myself. Skin was getting infected and painful and ears were starting to show infection signs. Was told to pause giving her the anti-allergic medication she is chronically on. My pup is a 13,5 years senior with history of allergies from basically day one.

[@kevinwalker4623]

Wound up going with a novel protein, rabbit in our case, and have been stink and patchy free for years! Worth every penny, probably a wash since we were spending it antibiotics.

[@latonyanewsome0]

Could be Cushing's disease.

[@edwinajthompson7885]

Great video per usual. I also want to thank you for recommending book Oliver. I listened to it on audible and was thoroughly entertained. Thanks again.

He has all the symptoms of Addison's disease. He needs to get tested for adrenal malfunction at the vet.

He could have a skin infection. One of out dogs got one last year and she had similar skin symptoms. She kept scratching the infected areas and her belly lost a lot of fur. Whatever he has, I hope he's feeling better soon.

You have to love him... He has that gorgeous soft looking youthful goofy face.

Give the urine scent, I’d say Addison’s is more likely since both have similar effect but Addison’s usually causes over concentration.
