Scott: “cats don’t usually like being wet” Gizmo: *dunks head in the water* Gizmo: “I’m built different” 💀✋ Edit-this is crazy I wrote this 1 year ago and is still likes and replies 😭we love that tho
I encountered a Bella-type dog recently, a yorkie named Princess in the outside seating of a restaurant. Dog was growling the whole time, sat on the sofa type seating and being fed by his owner. Not leashed. Owner kept holding her up to her face, dog growling the whole time. When someone asked if her dog was ok, she said "Yeah, I'm just annoying her!" AND THEN KEPT DOING IT. When they got up to leave, it ran back and forth along all the tables, barking and growling at everyone. Literally everyone laughed. My service dog was with me, a fairly big boy with very large teeth. He was perfectly behaved, but if he had showed similar signs of CONSTANT aggression, I highly doubt people would've reacted the same. I'm so sick of small dogs being treated as harmless.
literally my immediate thought was 'if Bella was a German Shepard she'd be euthanised" I don't think its cute or funny, clearly the owners haven't trained or socialised her properly when young. It's infuriating
@@sonokoakashi9375 dog bites are never harmless and never ok. Even ignoring the physical damage, which small dogs are still definitely capable of, their mouths are still full of bacteria. Tetanus kills, and dog bites, especially from small dogs due to attitudes like yours, are rarely taken seriously enough. The only person I know who was hospitalised for a dog bite was a bite from his pet Yorkie because he underestimated the damage it causes. Your logic is basically that you can stab as many people as you want as long as the knife is tiny, but you attack one person with a machete and then you're over the line (because let's be realistic, a big dog that bites 9 times out of 10 will only be able to get away with that once before being euthanized or constantly muzzled, which any dog with a bite history regardless of size should be)
And not only are they danger to people, agressive dogs - regardless of how big they are - are at least a nuisance when walking my dog. Last month my border collie was bitten by a small dog not on a leash that lashed at him when my dog told him, he does not want to play. Even as the lady was getting close we told her to not do it and she still said that her dog 'is small and they will play!' Now my dog is even more scared of male dogs than he was before. The injury was not too bad thought. It healed within a few day, just needed a desinfection and no touchy.
“I’ve been trying to get Chris out of the closet the whole time, but it’s the cupboard under the stairs, that will have to do” Neil really went there with the innuendo 😂
Bella's owners seem so ignorant! Instead of correcting her behavior when she tries to bite Chris, they laugh and smile! People don't seem to take a behavior like this seriously just because it's a tiny dog.
@@foxtrotoscar4284 your pet associated the negative part of the experience with the vet. There's actually alot of ways you can change how you're pet sees the vet.
Some of it may have been for the camera. Even if so, it was reinforcing the behavior even if only for a couple of minutes. A soft muzzle for the visit would have been appropriate.
Something sorta of happened to my female dog but she would hump the male dog at a young age and it happened only 2 or 4 times when she was a young dog.
In the US, small dogs cause homeowners insurance to cost more because they bite much more than the large breeds! If I were a vet, that chihuahua would come in with a muzzle :-p
@@wakito64 They are temperamental yes but they are definitely not spawns of satan.. Infact they are one of the most misunderstood breed just like Pitbulls..
Carol’s statement about cats mourning is absolutely true. We had two sweet little brothers for 14 years. One got sick with kidney failure and passed suddenly. His brother moped about for a good solid month before he came back around to himself.
@@Birds4lifeAnya He likes one of them a bit too much, or did until the treatment. I guess males of a certain age sometimes try to relive their youth and experiment a little...er...romantically. Hopefully Gizmo got it out of his system.
The funniest case on Bondi by far in my opinion has to be the silicon balls. Not because of the balls themselves- but because the boyfriend was so adamant about the dog keeping his ballsack intact. Like there was no negotiation, the dog wasn’t gonna lose those nuts.
To be fair its kinda sad, as we know that silicone 'sweats' same way as breast implants. And those silicone sweats can cause issues in humans, let alone in dog...
@@Glittertrut I agree, I personally don't believe we should be putting anything like that in our bodies let anyone animal bodies. It's a funny video, but saame tme sad because it'ss not greasy over time.
@@Glittertrut true. My worry was the silicone too. That aspect I really didn’t enjoy. I thought it would have been better to put the dog on some sort of medicine honestly. That way he could keep his testis, nice and big, and be a big more laid back. Plus he can reproduce in the future if need be (by going off the pill). So I don’t know why they jumped to that conclusion. I’m having a guess that Chris did indeed bring up the pill option, but the gf/bf didn’t like it and made a scene. Because honestly- I find it very hard to believe that Chris wouldn’t think about putting a dog on meds for a certain condition. And you gotta remember, it’s a vet show, a lot of behind the scenes. So we can never be sure if other options were discussed and this one was just the one put in. But like- I find it very unusual silicone was chosen. I’m not vet, but what would other pieces of fat have done?
Carol is the cat lady I wish I could be. She has lots of cat, but takes such good care of each and everyone of them. And she is ray of sunshine! I love her
The bloody owners thought it hilarious when Bella bit the vet. In my youth that was considered disgraceful and an indictment of your training and ownership.
Well I have noticed this show doesn't show the full reality of being a vet though. So so many bad things I've seen. I understand what you mean though. As long as the good outweigh the bad
Imagine saving animal lives every day and then putting your own animal life at risk when you don’t teach it a recall And don’t keep A leash on it and it runs into traffic
I'm appalled at how crappy the training has been for poor Bella. Her parents seem amused by her brutality. Perhaps Chris and other vets would do her a favor by refusing to be her vet until the human parents train her.
What’s annoying me, on top of that, was that she was clearly terrified, so… Why didn’t he put a glove on rather than jerking back and making her more nervy?! She’s reacting like that cos she’s had the result that she wants - the vet backs off. This seems really counter productive. Bad owners, and honestly I can’t understand why the vet isn’t handling it better.
Less than 2 months ago I had to rush my rooster to the vet because he had been poisoned, he was almost dead, lying on the ground, his head hanging, beak open, excessive saliva... They saved his life, he was hospitalized for a week, another week on medication and thank god i have him home singing all the time again
As an owner of a stigmatized large breed.... tiny aggressive dogs make me SO ANGRY. Haha, look, how cute, the tiny doggo is trying to bite him!! Meanwhile my well-behaved 60lbs dog needs special licensing, because the BREED apparently made them dangerous.
It must be terribly frustrating to be in your situation. Personally my heart belongs to 100 lb Labrador. I remember in the days of the Pitbull Panic my cousin was told even though her yard was fence that she had to build a a dog pen with a roof on it to keep her dog in when he was unattended outside and he wasn't allowed to be walked without a muzzle. They also had to pay for that special license. I'm pleased to say that those ridiculous rules no longer exist Oddly enough I've been surrounded buy big breeds both my own and those of friends and oddly enough the only time I've ever been bitten was by a 1 lb toy poodle. Imagine having a dog that's so small you have to carry it in a purse in case somebody happens to step on it.😕
@@dixierae3442 I'm biased, but I often think many big dog owners understand what dog behaviours are utterly unacceptable and teach dogs to behave. When I adopted my pitty, I only had experience with smaller dogs. First thing we did was book time with a trainer. If my dog reacts badly,someone gets hurt. I took that seriously. Thankfully, she come with only some separation anxiety, but no aggression we had to work out.
You have to remember that if a tiny dog bites you its not goingto put you in hospital or kill you. A big dog can and will put you in hospital.. That is the difference
@@verityowens9638 Small dogs attacking a child will scar both physically and emotionally just the same. Worse, small dogs attacking humans in any form can lead to further things. You don't need a large bite to cause nerve damage, leave permanent scars - especially in the face, or transmit disease. There is absolutely no excuse for dogs being bite-y. There's further no difference in being irresponsible over having a large dog bite and having a small dog bite. Bites are not acceptable.
The thing about someone like Carol is that they get judged too much by other people. As long as all the cats are happy and healthy she’s actually doing the world a favor by helping all these cats.
I really love all the Docs on Bondi Vet, but I have to say Scott Miller is my favorite. Drop dead handsome, humble, sensitive, compassionate, funny, family man, he's got it all!
Its seems that Gizmo was experiencing pain and so was finding relief by what he was doing to his owners. The clamping onto his owners, the purring and the biscuit making are all signs that he was trying to get pain relief for his hip pain. There is always a reason a cat does something that is strange within their behaviour. A cat is never just being mean or being horrible. If you have a cat that is behaving strange, first take them to the vet to see if they have any health issues. Once health is clear, watch their behaviour and try to find out what they are trying to tell you
No sometimes cats are just being pains. Mine knocks things over when she wants something. Started with her throwing her bowls and she realized it gets my attention to refill it. Now she moved to cups for attention.
I love when people bring in animals like chickens. Animals that are usually just cogs in the machinery, producing something for humans to profit from. It warms my heart whenever I see a person seeing the individual animal and tends to their needs with care to make sure they are okay. More, much more, of this, please.
@@kaleighbell6797 ah thats adorable! I raised 8 chickens over the last 2 years to roam the yard and lay eggs. I would play them music before I moved out of my parents house. Sang to em, gave em treats. Same with the ducks I raised. All the birds have names except 4. Couldn't come up with any good ones! I miss my baby idgie though, she was my duck. I couldnt take her with me when I moved but my parents make sure to give her all the romaine lettuce and tomatoes she wants! A little bit of dog food here and there too. All of those birdies get so spoiled by their grandparents ugh. Lol ♡ Edit: Oh here are the names: for the ducks we have Miss Idgie and Ruth (or ruthers, I love the movie fried green tomatoes!), for the chickens we have Hershey, Daisy, Phoebe, and lil Peep (she was named that because she never shuts it! And still makes peeping sounds as a hen sometimes when she sees me. She hates everyone but me!), then we have the newest addition to the family I raised a few months ago. Only found a good name for one because she is the color of A peach! Her name is Peaches. She is shaped like one too, big girl. The others I havent thought of good names yet but one I want to name Turnip. She always has her head in the ground diggin.
One day my baby Idie got hurt by my brother's dog. She hopped right into the fenced area and almost killed my baby. But the dog was just protecting the kids she thought. I immediately was callin vets and took her home with me. One of the vets I called said they had no appointments for 3 weeks because their doctor was on a vacation who saw all the birds....about 30 minutes later I got a call from the doctor saying she dropped her vacation to see my duck because she missed seeing birds ever since this covid stuff! She told me to bring her in immediately the next day as soon as possible. I got a call and Idgie was fine just a lil sore and the vet told me all how she loved giving idgie dog food, bananas, applesauce, and all these treats. She was laughing and giggling. I may be scared of most birds but the birds I raised helped me and I would do ANYTHING for em.
@@ohhey9129 awww I love their names! My roo’s name is Onyx. He’s a black australorp and super sweet! He got pecked in the eye as a chick so he’s blind in that eye, but he’s still healthy and living his best life!
I think my vet was surprised at first when I started taking my cockerel to see him. He'd been mauled by someone's dog and took a long time to recover. I think after the third time, where I described the sling I'd made for him from a cut up blanket and an artist's easel to help him stand, the vet finally just accepted that this strange lady and her invalid chicken weren't going to go away. I think he secretly enjoyed our visits 🐓
I appreciate the family who brought the chicken in so much. Most people just wouldn’t even think about bringing in an animal like that to the vet. You can see how much they care about her
I had chickens for several years. I had one girl, Eleanor that got hurt. I took her to the vet. Then she was in quarantine in my laundry room until she got well.
I once had 32 cats. I lived in a place where people dumped animals. Cats were usually pregnant and I had 4 litters about the same time. My sister lived next door and she took the dogs. We worked hard to find forever homes for the animals.
@@marlat1026 no grammar police. You just don’t understand the joke but that’s okay. Here one more time I’ll break it up so even you can read it. (More like Jizzzz Moe)
chris: thats daddy! thats just wrong :( gizmo: yeah..daddy😏 chris: NO- edit: i came back and i have 421 likes? i didn't think this was that funny but thanks anyway 💪🏽
Scott. Scott is in England. Chris is in Bondi in Australia. Both are Australian, but Scott's parents challenged him to go back to England and that is where he stayed.
The last one with the little cat lady made me so happy! She’s so cute and I can only hope to be as happy as her in my old age! I share the same love for cats as her and honestly I aspire to be just like her❤️I love all of you guys at Bondi and I hope to meet you guys one day and thank you for all the wonderful work you guys do!💞
I like to think he just vents his frustrations at the cardboard cutouts when Chris isn't around. Chris: *rolls up to the clinic to see Neil manically laughing over a burning pile of "chrises"* "Think I'll just come back later".
Loved the cat lady, she seems like a really nice and funny lady. And you can always call (fat cats) well loved. They don't put their ears back or glare at you when you say that. LOL
He really dosen't have a choice. His face is so flat that his hair gets in the water too. These cats have to really turn their heads down to eat or drink. Not like a normal cat that had a muzzle. I had a blue Persian with an even flatter face than that. He had to wear a bib at mealtimes. (Jan Griffiths).
Why can’t they give Bella the tablet at home? Also if they know she bites why doesn’t she come muzzled & coned? Seems like it’d be less stressful for everyone
I put my tablets in some bread with peanut butter...or those tablet pill concealing treats you can get at pet stores. Much better and the dog just thinks they are getting something tasty.
Chris and Rusty was absolutely hilarious....I couldn't stop laughing. Rusty says let me get outta here cause Chris has lost his mind...there's no way I'm going back into that water! I think Chris got the idea from a visit to an island where he saw other dogs surfing. It's accepted by the canines on that island, but definitely not in Australia.
Aw man. I saw the cat named Gizmo and lost it. My Himalayan crossed the rainbow bridge on the 18th. Her name was Gizmo as well and my husband got her for me when she was 8 weeks old in 2004 so she had been w/me for a "few" years. No matter where I went, there she was and she to was a character. I swear that cat and I had a conversation every night before we went to bed.
It is hard to lose a close fur family member. I have lived with 17 different cats over a 40 year period. Every one is different. Some of them live in your heart forever!
I love the dynamics in the hospital between the nurses and doctors. They all know how to really lift each other up especially when dealing customers. It's so amazing that they really also build positive relationships with their patients and their owners
Hello beautiful 🌹🌷 How are you doing today, I always enjoy what you share here on RU-vid and I will love to be good friends with you, it's my Pleasure if you accept my friendship. Thanks and God bless you.
and it's never the dog's fault, either! it's entirely on the owners to teach their dog how to behave and how to not behave. even reinforcing the behavior for a second can have *horrible* long term affects on the dog!
They need to have Bella muzzled because she's not even safe to have out in public. She needs some serious training and the owners need some serious training too.
Chris needs to write a book on his patients and their reactions but Rusty was definitely the smartest. All 3 vets are truly wonderful with their patients.
Why is everyone ignoring the fact that the owners need to *TRAIN* their dog to behave and not be aggressive. They are going to face a *HUGE* lawsuit one day ‼️😳
Put the pill in a snack like some cheese or peanut butter. Dr. Scott is not Gizmo's cup of tea. Lol. That mom was a genius saying her son is a fan if Dr. Chris. Too bad he was not in that day. A picture is worth a thousand words.
I like that they highlight other types of specialty vets on this show. I have so much respect fot them, especially those who pick a field like equestrian, avian, etc. That's got to be hard.
Omg I felt for that last lady who's cat passed under aesthetician! I instantly choked up! I've never been through it but I know the pain of losing an animal and all the horrible feelings you go through.
Seeing the country vet using an advanced piece of ultrasound technology to check if a cow is pregnant makes me realize how impressive doctor Pol and his team are being able to tell if a cow is pregnant using just feel.
The one at the dairy farm reminded me of a story of my vet that she shared with us. She and I had become friends over the years, and even as a teen I used to go sit at the clinic and help out of I could, but mostly I just loved being there and learning stuff connected to my passion. And she was the most fun and nice person to be arround. So, as to become a vet, part of the final exam was to feel inside some cows I think there were like 3 cows, of which one was pregnant and the rest were not. And she was bound to fail. Actually, she was really short, so she would not be able to reach the womb even If her life depended on it. She just couldn’t reach. 🤷🏼♀️ But luckily for her (sometimes cheating might be ok, she wasn’t going to work with cows anyway) one of her male classmates that had his turn before her, whispered which one was the pregnant one to her while he was om his way out and she was on the way in. So yeah. She nailed it. Sometimes I think that If it hadn’t been for her classmate, she wouldn’t have become a vet, I’d never met her, we’d never became friends and as to that I’d never mer that beautiful (both inside and outside) woman who also was my mentor when I was a teen. ❤️ Oh and btw, others who have heard this story has asked ”why couldn’t she just stand on a stool to reach better”, so I wanna ad that standing on a stool does not make your arms longer.
I'm glad to hear Scott said to use a spray bottle of water to discourage unwanted behavior. I did that with my cats and it worked perfectly! In fact after a few squirts, all I had to do was reach toward the bottle and that stopped the bad behavior.
My late Persian cat always humped our legs too! He'd do it for a bit and then just cuddle up after he was satisfied, I think its a comforting instinct they have at kittens and just stays with some cats through adulthood... especially Persians! Lol Edit: I miss you, my Casey boy, I hope you have all the kitty-nip you want up in kitty heaven 💘😇
