You do what help you function day to day. Even minute to minute. I read scriptures. The best way to help with your depression is to go out of your way to help someone else. Yes I know, how are supposed to do that depressed? Start small, make yourself. Just a simple phone call to ask how someone else is doing. Bring someone some cookies or bread. Practice being nice to everyone you come in contact with even if it takes all your effort. It will eventually help keep you “ even.”

Vanessa comments about the dogs being able to sense if you're stressed is SO true. If I've had a rought time getting to my shift at doggy daycare, I get into the kitchen/room where we leave our stuff, and after I get ready I have to take a couple of deep calming breaths, shake it off, and get going. Working with dogs takes a lot of patience, and if you don't have it one day, it WILL spiral. If the dogs are feeling the stress radiating off of you, they will act differently. Bless my favorite daycare dogs, both have them have ended up hanging out by my feet and guarding me from other dogs on days that I'm not feeling well, and letting me pet them the whole time. I would kill and die for them, but they can't be guarding things and I need to walk and get to other dogs to do my job 😂

Thank you so much for these videos! I rescued a husky (approximately 9 mos old at the time) on June 7, 2023. She had been abandoned on a logging road, captured, and sent to an overcrowded animal control facility. Her previous owners had not taken care of her spring blowout, so she was a matted mess. After adoption fees, vaccinations, spaying, and other veterinary care, I could not afford to have her professionally groomed. Thanks to your videos, I knew what essential tools I needed to take out the matted mess. She is what I have been told is a split coat husky. Her coat is naturally short and smooth in some areas and wooly in others. The initial groom took me 3 hours (with 2 breaks). Once groomed, I have been able to maintain her coat throughout the summer, and the autumn blowout only too 2 hours (with 1 break). Thank you for explaining what you do and why so clearly. Without your videos to learn from, I would have ended up shaving my Taimyr and making a choppy mess of things.

[@KateBonnyCountry]

@@TheNinnyfee My granfather was a master zoologist working for the forestry department. As a result, I had a remarkable childhood full of animals. I helped take care of orphaned deer and foxes. He had a 3-legged racoon as a pet. He had child sized protective equipment made so I could learn to handle poisonous snakes (I held the body while he milked them and sent the venom to a lab to make anitvenin) and injured, wild animals. Love of animals was instilled young. Responsibility for taking care of them was instilled young. When I saw her picture in a local social media group, I could not let her die. I wanted to take every single cat and dog home with me, but I couldn't. So, I saved one, and she is amazing. In 4 months, she has learned that when I come home with groceries, she does not get attention until they are put away. She runs into the kitchen and opens the refrigerator door (but she never raids the fridge) for me. I can hand her the toilet paper, and she will take it to the bathroom and place it next to the toilet without ripping it up. I didn't train her to do these things. She just does them on her own so she can play with me after. I have 3 other dogs that are her pack, and seeing them when I come home from work is the best part of my day.

Both would watch over my 3 girls and my wife , inside the house or outside . Door bell ring , they were there to always stand between the girls and whoever was at the door ! Outside the same thing , they were the bouncers and were checking ID's You didn't come in unless they knew you or we said it was alright . Anyway in the spring they both would get a big brushing . We had a kennel for them in the backyard , backyard was also fenced in with an inground pool . My wife would sit in the kennel and give them a thorough brushing for hours . She would put hand fulls of fur in the kennel's fence holes . We would watch birds and even squirrels gather the fur up for their nest . I'm pretty sure they all had warm homes . Summer time they would stay in the house , because if you've had huskies or malamutes . You know how much they loved the heat !!! Sassy died of cancer at 13 and Sam died from loneliness 2 weeks later at 12 !!

[@starlakelsey2782]

Something I find that works well with a dog that doesn't want nozzle used for de-shedding....while coat is soaped up or with lots of conditioner (depending of dogs coat/skin) use a slicker brush. It collects the hair in soapy clumps that you can just toss in trash as it is collected.

[@Hi_Im_Akward]

Yes! This works great for the hairy beasts, just can't get too over zealous because both the skin and hair is more vulnerable when wet and it's a lot easier to brush burn them and with longer haired dogs like newfies, you can break and damage the coat.

[@candygram4435]

Such a good girl. She didn’t necessarily like it but seemed to understand it was quicker and less painful to just get it over with

[@katiedotson704]

I do this even with my short haired dogs. On long haired dogs I had in the past, I would start off with a comb that had wide set teeth, like the comb used toward the end of this video, then graduate to a dematting rake. This was done methodically, looking for mats or other problem areas. I would go back to the comb during the rinse, Keep in mind that the goal is to remove loose hair, not to pluck the dog bald. When a dog has managed to find something hideous or greasy to roll in, I start off with Dawn Dish Detergent, avoiding the face and eyes. I use a human grade conditioner that is also soothing to the skin and has no perfumes or dyes. While this has worked for me with both dogs and horses for over 25 years, that is not to say that I don't learn a lot by watching this channel. I certainly do.

[@carolinacoreas7716]

I used to do that with my spitz mix who tends to get an impacted coat when it blows, but I got scared that doing this while his coat is wet may damage his coat because wet hair breaks easier. The great thing is, he has never had matting, he just gets a ton of impacted coat that I can spend hours pulling out by hand or by just taking like an hour to brush it out with a slicker brush. What I do now is, I brush his coat prior to giving him a bath. I find it helps get the soap deep into the undercoat. It takes away excess hair that can float on the surface of the coat, and in the long run, it makes his bath last shorter which is good for him because he hates baths and gets cold easily.

She was a Lady through and through, and had such a lovely singing voice. She was a good listener too and so very well-behaved, but she did have certain peculiarities.

The ending picture of her smiling into the camera is just precious 💖

9:53 Her pulling the happy hoodie off, she’s so cute omg

[@thomniced]

What a good girl!! She was waiting to sing with the dryer if you stayed too long. She would wind up while giving you the chance to move on. That definitely comes with age in a husky. She's beautiful

[@Have2havefaithNAmer]

She is beautiful! …and you are patient!

[@ElGibby]

I love how Skylar looks so proud of herself as she serenades us all with the song of her people ❤️💞💜

[@AndySaenz]

She’s one of the better behaved Huskies I’ve seen Vanessa do. She once did a white husky and that dog was difficult, a very whiny little rascal. It was acting like it was dying, lol.

What a beautiful dog, I have a Husky and he doesn't like his paws touched either. You were patient and you got her paws done. I love your channel, my Husky Buddy watched this one with me.

[@moblades1]

Such a pretty Husky and adorably vocal as well.

[@dominiclawson4058]

I didn’t expect it turn into a T’Rex part way through but the plot twist at the end it turning into gleaming, smiley lovely Husky with awesome. Seriously though the ability to find at least a common ground with a dog while at situation is brilliant to watch and must be a very helpful ability to have.

[@johnniewelbornjr.8940]

She had a lot of unprintable comments/lyrics lol... She certainly wasn't the worst but she was definitely being a pill. Climbing up to do her nails is dedication, indeed. You always do a good job "reading" your clients, be they cat or dog. Never thought I'd be watching grooming vids but enjoy the dry humor and how you deal with all the different fur-face personalities. Subscribed here, as well and happy to help out. Thanks for sharing

[@maddie4190]

It’s so hilarious when she rips that happy hoodie off then screams more and tries to jump off the table because you just keep going like, girl, you’re I’m not stopping just because you’re being the drama 🤣💀🙏

[@youarebymyside]

The fact that you had water and soapy water on your back IMMEDIATELY after the water was turned on, lol. P.S.: You got on that table with her like a pro!

[@elliewessa1903]

I love when huskies sing the song of their people!❤ My Cocker Spaniel does too He sing right along w/ them! 😂

[@mikeyera]

shes sooooo pretty nothing in the world would make me get stressed at this floofy dog

[@joermnyc]

Skylar knows when it’s time to sing the song of her people.😂

[@Decanta]

So incredible how you were able to get her to let you do her paws at the end. Its like something finally clicked and she realized she just had to get it over with 😂

[@littlebear274]

She had a real thousand-yard stare there!

[@sspencer4036]

It was "oh s**t! She means business " when the groomer got up on the table 😂

[@kittysassafras]

I grew up with a dog that was an unknown mix of breeds, but my parents thought German shepherd and maybe chow or huskie. After watching a lot of your videos and the first 5 seconds of this one, I’m convinced she was definitely part huskie. She used to make noises like that when she was excited, progressing into something between that sound and a howl, but never an actual howl. Her fur was like a huskie’s too; fur coming out in handfuls in the summer. But she was yellow. So maybe she was huskie and golden retriever? I’ll never know, but she was a great dog for a kid like me.

[@lilstardrops]

huskies can be blonde! I had a dark blonde, black and white husky once 😊

[@ElGibby]

A golden husky sounds like an absolutely beautiful dog. I’m glad you have such happy memories of her 🥰

[@achevres]

I had what I’m pretty sure was a Yellow Lab-Husky mix, Goldie. All yellow gold color. She never howled, but her coat was a Husky type coat, and she shed like a Husky. I found her on the road, and she was the best girl.

[@kham9529]

Shepherds can be, er, musical, too. My mom's GSD has a groany lower pitched almost howl for when he's especially enjoying a pet or having an itchy spot scratched and a yodel (for lack of a better descriptor) for when when he's distressed (eg with bathing or if his supper is taking too long and he becomes convinced he's dying). One of the videos on either this channel or the original includes a GSD who "sings" throughout his unwanted bath.

[@RedPhone-mz5lv]

Found dogs are the best my son opened our front door one day outside was a tiny Jack Russell birch we had her for 14years best dog ever

[@DB___496]

I love seeing you in these videos Vanessa but the first 15 seconds of Skylar howling is just the best serotonin boost

[@RafaelaFerguson]

Skylar looked so beautiful when you finished her grooming. A gorgeous husky and I thought she was well-behaved and cooperative for a husky. Even her crying and yowling could have been much louder and worse. She did great and so did you Vanessa!! Thanks!! ❤❤❤❤️❤❤🦴🦴🦴🦴🦴

[@patperrier9640]

She reminds me so much of my first husky, Topaz.... Those eyes and that attitude in the bath. Miss my girl still... Looking at her face and what I could see of her teeth, I'd venture to guess she was around 7 - 9 years of age. She's a sweetie. Loved the hurricane-force shake after the bath. As for the feet, you DEFINITELY have to socialize them to that at a young age! And even then, they're huskies - there's no guarantee.

[@terrygripp3019]

Am totally addicted and happy to watch and hear your commentary - your voice is calming and you’ve worked wonders with “so called” difficult dogs and cats. Thank you for all you do…. Each and every dog and cat has been lucky to have been groomed by you!

[@legomego3333]

I sold my deshedding nozzle because I didn’t have enough water pressure or my Akitas coat was just too dense. So I bought the force dryer and it’s been a lifesaver. The shampoo nozzle also took a ton of time off grooming time.

[@catherinebrady2640]

Wow! Amazing transformation. I love watching you manage each dog's eccentricities.

[@amandagreen4332]

Huskies are basically the cats of the dog world. Her kitty timer was definitely ticking down during the dry!

[@anna_in_aotearoa3166]

Even the noises at 10:08 reminded me more of a gremlin-kitty than of a respectable canine!! 🤣 Huskies really do seem to be running feline software on dog hardware, right down to the stereotypical aversion to water...? (So fascinating seeing their opposites, the Bengal cats who seem to be felines running dog software, getting out on surfboards and swimming in pools! Can only imagine the cross-species chaos if you had one of each in your household.. ?)

[@erikk1820]

yeah a lot of cat vibes from this one

[@Heather5073-hr1jw]

For as much as she hated her feet touched, that went remarkably well. My springer does the same pulling/resisting when I try to clip her back nails. If only she could understand that her resistance masks it more likely that I clip them too short! What you do is no easy task! You are a saint.

[@pamfink4052]

My 15 lb Jack Russel acts like he's being killed when I try to clip his nails lol. Finally took him to a groomer and paid a whole $5 to have it done! He wiggled and squirmed in my arms, growled at the girl once but they got done lol

[@LorettaJCooke]

[@libby5386]

omg the downward-dog yoga pose she does during drying is so damn cute !!!

[@OneCut1Slash]

Wow. Everything Skylar did was exactly how my Husky acts when grooming. Pretty sure all Huskies sign some sort of code of conduct at birth.🤔

[@tablescissors]

Yup, it’s genetics, from breeding.

[@bece00]

Getting wet in the environment huskies were bred to live in is basically a death sentence. Poor guys are fighting for their lives against that warm soapy water 😂

@@bece00 THIS! I have never seen anyone mention this but it is absolutely the reason for the water terror. Imagine getting wet in the Arctic?

You mean a code of misconduct, signed and then witnessed by the Siamese Cat Society. (The Siamese Cat Society has a reciprocal witnessing arrangement with the Husky and Malamute Association.)

​@@jenniferw1595Vanessa has mentioned it before, with the additional comment that the winds in Alaska are surely much more cold and frightening than her high-velocity dryer, yet they still insist on singing the song of their people while getting dried... 😂

my kids have a husky. i am dying to be there to watch the groom, but, obviously i can’t. i keep begging them to video him, but they keep saying no. damn! they do tell my kids that he is the most chilled husky they’ve ever groomed. he stays still, let’s them do whatever they need to, never sings the song of his people, and allows them to cut, clip, shave, and anything else they need to do. i credit my son i law with his behavior. he did a phenomenal job on my granddog in training him and acclimating him to his environment and other dogs and people. that pup is a keeper!
