How I tackle a difficult nail trim on a feisty dog

[@cathiefieser7296]

[@jagoldenpyrenees491]

If I had to guess, I'd say MAYBE there's a little bit of Schnauzer in there somewhere, but that's it. Beyond that, I haven't the slightest clue.

@@jagoldenpyrenees491 His face does look Schnauzer like, now for the rest...

[@reagan.butler]

@@amandasnider2644 he's tiny how in the world would he be irish wolfhound and doberman

[@TechnologyFML]

I just want to thank you for specifying that he was "unfriendly" about his feet, rather than calling him something like a "bad dog" and acknowledging his wonky legs as being a potential reason. I always worry that my girl and I (by extension) are being harshly judged when she reacts to things. I appreciate seeing there are still compassionate people in the world 💜

[@germyw]

Who judges a dog and how would the doggy know this? 🤔

[@TheAuDHDVegan]

​@@germywI work in vetmed. At the previous clinic I worked at, a tech said one of the dogs was a bad dog because he was growling and tried to bite someone. The poor dog was there for his neuter, so he hadn't had breakfast, he was in an unfamiliar place without his human, and people he didn't know were grabbing him and poking him with needles. If a dog reacts negatively in a stressful, high-anxiety environment, they're not a bad dog, they're just a dog. Dogs also know when they're being called a bad dog if the owner uses the phrase at home. Dogs learn to associate words and phrases with actions; that's why they can *sit*, *down*, *come*, when asked. The tone of which some words are spoken (*yes*, *no*, *good*, *bad*) also indicate to the dog if they should or shouldn't continue their behaviors.

[@rubycardenas7646]

I only judge when someone has not brought their dog in for 6 months the nails are overgrown and the owners are nonchalant like obviously your dog is aggressive cause you didn’t care enough in the beginning to desensitize

[@digri4677]

Perfection!

[@digri4677]

Adorable

[@diannebarnes9405]

Teddy is absolutely adorable. My guess the reason he does not get "anxious" while blow drying, etc. in the grooming salon is because he trusts you. He is a gem.

[@Dirty_Squirrell]

More than likely, he's not getting the affirmation he gets for the behavior there. Usually, when they learn to self soothe, they do better on the long run.

[@dezinechic]

love @ 3:32 when hes like "yep you can come back now".

[@brentfarvors192]

Well THAT, and I suspect a very strong bond with the matriarch of that family; Teddy instinctively does everything possible to please "mom"..."When mom's not happy, NO ONE is happy..." An old neighbor had a Yorkie male like that; He would pout/stomp, and sigh all over the house until she wasn't mad anymore; "I didn't mean it mom; I SWEAR..." It was HILARIOUS to watch him!!!

[@ShannonL7]

It's a predictable environment

[@susanharris3482]

Love waching u making it look so easy,which l no it isn't my cocker spaniel is good with grooming but also hates having her claws clipped ,butsome times it a long time getting a appointment ,dog groomers are always so busy, love

Teddy was an adorable dustmop before his groom and an even more adorable gent afterwards. Major kudos to his people for giving this anxious boy a family to love. He looks like such a sweetheart.

[@stevenanthony9353]

Hello Beth how are you doing today

[@stevenanthony9353]

Hello Corey how are you doing today

[@potatertot360]

As a human who isn't a big fan of fireworks, I wonder if the reason the noises in the salon don't bother him is because they're predictable noises - now he knows they aren't dangerous, and the noise is the same every time. But fireworks and thunderstorms are both highly unpredictable loud noises, so he can't get used to it the same way.

[@BK-is5fj]

That actually makes a lot of sense

[@peregrina7701]

I was going to write the same opinion...

[@sarahlongstaff5101]

He knows how long the noise is going to last, and that he can make it through.

[@mariee.5912]

My dog got so scared this year that I had to hide with him. 😔

[@PoM-MoM]

My last PoMeranian was what my Vet called her a "Protector" and if her humans were around she was very scared of thunder and fireworks BUT if she was not in her usual atmosphere or she wasn't around ME then she was calmer. She definitely 'fed off' of MY emotions/anxiety... as I don't like Thunder/lightening or LOUD bang fireworks either. So when we were together during THOSE times we each were the other's emotional support. I miss her terribly as she passed away in 2021 so I ADORE seeing Vanessa's Merle Pomeranian, GIDGET aka "SMIDGE" in video's bc she reminds me of my Merle PoM.

I relate to this pup on a spiritual level. I, too, am terrified of loud noises and would bite someone for trying to trim my nails.

Cute doggie! I think he needs a happy hoodie during thunderstorms. He was SO calm with it on.

What an adorable handsome pupper. As someone who deals with PTSD I appreciate the patience you've shown Teddy. Animals can't share their survival stories so to have empathy for each wounded soul is a true Blessing.💓 You do beautiful work with each of your fur baby clients!

[@bluevol1976]

Teddy went through a lot while he was really young. I’m so glad he made it to a safe, loving home. He is absolutely adorable and I hope that he grows out of his anxiety about his nails and feet. If not, he’s got a great groomer who knows what to do.

[@ASpectacular3777]

I can’t believe what horrors/trauma this dog went through to have such a reaction to loud noises where he climbs on to a human’s head and has to medicated daily. My heart breaks. Thank you, Girl With Dogs, for treating him so kindly and doing what you do for our animal friends! I hope Teddy continues to heal with his family and good people

[@ulfrthered]

I mean, it's not necessarily a result of abuse or trauma, I've got a bearded collie who has been spoiled absolutely ROTTEN her entire life and she also needs anxiety meds and has a very big problem with boom. She's also the only dog I've met who sees a squirrel on a walk and wants to go home. I can assure you, she was abused not at all. Just cannot stand anything boom related. Also has an unhealthy fear of certain things that move, certain things that don't move, smells, me after a haircut, boxes being opened, etc. Sometimes they're just a little loco. She also attempts to scale her humans when she's frightened. Typically more funny than painful.

[@erinmaree1987]

If it's any consolation, I had my last dog from puppy hood and he was this way, probably from me spoiling him like a human rather than treating him like a dog to give him confidence

[@brentfarvors192]

Typically has NOTHING to do with it. Some pups are just born that way.

[@keen8271]

We adopted a dog recently that was incredibly spoiled and pampered and babied at her original home. They had her since she was a puppy and treated her very well. She has so many problems that were caused by too much babying that are disappearing quickly now that we have her and give her space to self-soothe. She was so terrified of even a gentle rain that she would hide under blankets in the bedroom or stand in a closet with no windows. She would be so insistent on hiding that she would break things to get to a hiding place. We removed all access to her hiding places and would give her treats for just laying on the sofa while it was raining and, like magic, she is fine with rain now. She has quite a few examples of this in her behavior, things that her previous owners babied and coddled her over, that are/were not good for her mental health. Since we got her and she has been learning that she will not get that treatment here, she has really come out of her shell and even her capacity for learning has vastly improved. I find that it is rarely abuse that leads to neurotic behavior, but rather too much "love" from their people. It is not love to keep them from learning how to be mentally strong.

[@ulfrthered]

@@keen8271 While I don't doubt that Abby's phobias could be resolved with some serious effort on our part, my hands are kinda tied. On the one hand, she's not my dog, I just live with her. On the other hand, she doesn't just hide, she'll try and flee from whatever's spooked her and leave a nice smelly trail of fear pee behind her. I think her personal best is starting in the basement, beginning the stream, making it up two flights of stairs, down a hallway, through a closed door, and into the bathtub. She's got a happy hoody and a thunder shirt and that usually means she just lays on a couch and shivers.

[@caroleshortt2715]

I just adopted a dog with wonky front legs. She has arthritis in one of the elbows, though. She doesn’t like her feet touched.

[@christinakasko2082]

I was waiting for SOMEONE to explain why his legs look like over-pronated Lion paws. 👀👀 wonky legs is at least an acknowledgement that they are there!!

@@christinakasko2082 WLS: I was making a joke based on what the groomer said. It’s not really a thing. 😳

[@tiffanieoverby7803]

Bassets get that leg/feet thing….I call my sisters dog ‘walrus feet’ lol he comes running when I visit and yell ‘where’s my walrus feet doggy at?’ Lol love him

[@12SailorLover21]

The reveal of the dog in the happy hoodie always makes me laugh

[@kristamkm]

I loved hearing his story and the information about dogs getting pregnant was fascinating. I think I love his front wonky legs the most. It gives him character and makes him so unique. Thank-you again for another incredible video and for all the work you do. ❤️

Not just dogs, it’s very common with cats, and even possible with humans

His longer coat was so gorgeous with all those grey tones, but the gradient on his lega after the shave is just lovely!

[@lynday]

He's a whole different dog! You did such an amazing job on him and I'm sure he feels as good as he looks now. I love watching your videos so much. Thanks for sharing your skills with us! ❤❤🐶🐶

[@raeperonneau4941]

Such a handsome puppy and his feet are gorgeous!

[@stevencantor7358]

You did an amazing job with Teddy. What a nice looking dog.

[@kathydoebling2271]

I never dreamed he would turn out so gorgeous.

[@peaches4043]

Wow, what a difference. Well done V! He looks beautiful ❤️

[@briansullivan5908]

He probably doesn't mind the salon noises because they aren't reminiscent of the cause of his underlying trauma. Even with his anxiousness he's really a good boy and a definite cutie.

[@Snowmirage6453]

This poor dog getting his nails clipped is like me going to the dentist... I feel ya buddy!

[@Kibenwa]

His litu front paws look so cute when she was working on his face. Aww.🥺

[@annieeliza840]

Teddy is a cutie!

[@vsbaretummysugastonguetech1540]

What a good, sweet doggie.

[@luvondarox]

Teddy actually handled the nail trim better than my folks' Cavalier, at least in terms of volume.

[@janelluckey5175]

He is so CUTE!! ❤❤❤

[@rangerlove7]

Definitely schnauzer in that mix. He reminds me of my schnoodle especially the after shots lol

[@maryclarafjare]

I love his happy face at the end, plus he looks phenomenal!!!

[@fireacross3249]

Teddy is such a hero❤ Having anxiety and still taking being tied and muzzled and having his nails clipped, I mean ❤️ He is gorgeous before and after🥹✨

[@Nasauniverse001]

Aw, he looked lovely all fluffy and clean, but he looks terrific after the trim.

[@bonniebrooks9324]

I am constantly amazed at your expertise! Thank you very much for sharing your life with dogs

[@stevencroft4850]

What a superb job you have done in grooming this handsome guy. I always enjoy watching a master at their craft regardless of the occupation.

[@minilove90]

Omg I have a rescue very similar to Teddy - only difference is my Lenny has black fur instead of grayish. The same exact brown mustache, same bangs, same tail, same same same. We were told in the shelter she is part Rottweiler part Poodle 😂But she is an absolute sweetheart, just like Teddy. Lots of love from our Rottweiler Doodle Lenny to your sweet Teddy. ❤️😊

[@sherryanimallover7506]

He looks so handsome, good boy! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@BlackCat-rm2wv]

It's cute how his front legs are angled they make a heart. ❤️

[@itsmealex76]

Kinda sus ngl

[@sundoesshine8583]

Like a Dr. Seuss character.

[@amandah2866]

He looks amazing!! You do fantastic work and I love the way you try to keep the animals as happy as possible while also doing what needs to be done.

[@lyndabrown811]

What a sweetheart 😍. Schnauzer, Greyhound, weiner dog, Bassett? His tail is a mystery. Lol! I've edited this post 4 times! I really enjoy your long format videos. What a transformation!

[@pursequeen6148]

You are so supernaturally knowledgeable, talented and loving with these dogs! I just love it♡
