FOUR hours of HELL...crazy session with a wooly Malamute 

I groom for free because viewers like you help me get paid through social media 😀

I was hoping the owners at least leave you a tip for all your work :)) It’s really nice that you take in dogs no one else would :3

@@Pepa14pig her furry clients do leave their “tips” in her backyard though. 😅

​@@Pepa14pigowners are asked to make a donation to a local animal rescue, I don't accept payment 🙂

@@GirlWithTheDogs you should live stream the groom

Me too

Ok... me four! Lol

it was so funny😂

Meee tooo😂😂😂

When it panned to the mess that was the other side, I winced for her back and shoulders

And no "Song of her People" either. The only time she sounded off was when her paws were touched or she thought they were going to be touched. Possible bad events from when she was in China.

Biggest female Malamute for sure, even accounting for her very long coat!!!

@@ernestpaul2484 Dogs don't don't like people messing with their paws. I don't know why. But they have a thing about that. Almost any dog will have an issue with it. But they don't always react as strongly as this dog. When I was kid, our dog would bite your hand for doing it, but not hard enough to do any damage. Just hard enough to tell you that you were irritating her. But she actually did let me file down her nails with a metal file one time. It worked well, but it took too long. And most dogs wouldn't sit through that. When we played with her, we would grab her front paw, and she would bite our hand. And if we did it in too predicable of a way, she would anticipate our next move and be ready for us.

​@@TerryProtheroThat. People don't get that if they don't work with or live with dogs. They can get tolerant of it, but they never really like it. Now, my cat, likes to sleep with his paws in my hand because cats are just weird.

From the title and thumbnail I was expecting her to be poorly behaved but nope, she's an angel and I fell for clickbait once again. The clickbait-y titles are my only complaint about this channel.

​@@Susweca5569OMG THIS IS AWESOME ❤

@@Susweca5569that’s so cool omg

I have a half malamute named Jinx. He's half border collie so he's smaller, like 80 to 100 pounds. He has the coat though, double layers of thick black floof.

​@@Susweca5569wow I want to do this. How much hair do I need

I had a Husky with fur *just* like this. It was an absolute nightmare to brush - for her & us. When she passed away I couldn’t be there but I asked my parents to save some of her fur. My best friend always used to suggest I collect it and give it to her to spin into yarn. 😂 As it is, I don’t think that’s possible.

Sweet 😊

Damn , Noicee man

$50 IS NOT ENOUGH!

​@@johnwalker3534are you going to tip her more?

That is really sweet

Wow. Thats Generous ❤

EXACTLY!!!!

Yeah that one got me too 😮😂

That got me too! 😂😂😂😂

I K R!! Whew

prayers for the dog. you could have given the dog a heart attack. What dog can stand for hours, so heavy with all that water. Dogs don't tend to stand that long, so ..... no. That job should have been longer with lots of resting in between for the pure safety of the dog.

Yeah, my eyes lit up when I first lay my eyes on her. My interest was piqued before Vanessa introduced Journey

Really? I thought it looked horrible, and then she explained about it being "wooly" and I understood why the coat looked so poor. It's a shame to working dogs, esp the awesome breed that is the Mal, to breed a dog that can't deal with weather and has that high a maintenance coat. They shouldn't be bred like that any more than Frenchies and Pugs should have those heads. It shouldn't be called a Malamute, either. Good on the owners for saving this one, though, it's going to be a lifetime of work and expense just keeping the coat... but it's not like the dog asked to be bred with a terrible coat and used for meat. They're lucky it doesn't have a heart condition like a lot of meat bred dogs. 😕

Absolutely the most beautiful EVER!

@@BlueTilda96 😭 oh my goodness! Thank you! I think that’s the nicest thing anyone has ever said to me! I’ve been following GWTD on RU-vid and TikTok for about a year (ever since I first started training to be a groomer) and she has honestly taught me more things than any of my senior groomers could. SHE is amazing!!

yes like the other person said there’s no reason to be sorry, u donated and not a lot of people have

Your Kyungsoos drawing is beautiful

Dont apologize

I love her sarcastic comments on dogs. Her shih tzu videos are golden. Once she told "thanks for trauma" to a dog and I laughed like 15 minutes 😂

Plan a trip to Canada! Book a groom in advance obviously.

❤she's beautiful X. You too🌹thank you

Wait she doesn’t charge????? Omg she is a SAINT

She is THE BEST

Love the Mals!

I mean... she complained a little. At least when her paws were being groomed. There's a reason she has a muzzle 8:32

This dog is so adorable.

When she fell asleep while being blow-dried😴🤗♥️

Tack!

my thoughts ecactly 🫠

I grinned when I saw her napping! 😂

She had an expression of pure bliss.

Then there’s the dog smell 😭

It's more likely shutting down/blocking out the stress than napping. Dogs do this during stressful situations. It's a way of dissociating.

I mean, you aren't a dog..

And even so, a treatment like that is easy to tolerate, hell, I'll even enjoy it.

Exactly. I've had dogs get irritated the longer it takes. They'll start the yawning that tells me to be on my toes cause that's when they'll snap at you.

I would have to do that in my swim suit.

Dog or human, standing in one place for 4 hours is TOUGH

she really is so well behaved, i have to guess her owners groom her fairly often 😳 ig that goes to show how much damage a shaved double coat can do since she still matted

Poor journeys owners need to keep up on her grooming she's beautiful

I see most vets stand beside the dog and Ben the dog's leg back as if she was lifting her leg up so she cannot see her Paw with the dog press closely to your side poor baby needs a Valium

Dog hair is prime nest material, and Malamute is prime prime!

@@maryeckel9682 After brushing our aussie, my husband puts tufts of her hair in the trees around our house. We see it in bird nests and it is never ending happiness to see it being used!

My sister had a double coated mixed breed (black lab and ??). She would always brush him and trim his coat in the yard (except in winter). The birds would watch until she finished and went inside, then swoop in to grab all the fur for their nests. They must've all had very comfy nests!

My cousin's corgi was the same way! I'd brush out literal bagfuls of fur and if I stopped, he'd look at me like "No, please, keep going."

that’s what i’m saying. she’s got a huge heart idk if many ppl could or would do the same.

Hello, I hope you're safe over there? I hope this year brings happiness, prosperity, love 💚 and peace all over the world . I would love us to be good friends in honesty and in trust so as time goes on it will bring something great for us in the future, hope you don't mind?. I'm Doctor Christopher Johnson from San Francisco, California, where are you from if I may ask?

If I may ask: does this seem to you that the owners are giving Journey's fur the necessary care? I don't have any experience with malamutes, just with a wolf spitz owned by my relatives, who took a hairbrush to his coat almost daily and did a splendid job with that. I really don't want to ask Vanessa such a thing.

@@irena4545 I can only assume that Journey’s owners were trying their best. As we all saw here they were willing to try different groomers until they found one that was willing to save her coat. Vanessa states very often how important doing your breed research is and I couldn’t agree more. I personally believe that they may not have been aware of this Malamute coat type (I was today years old when I heard of a Wooly Malamute, although I am familiar with the breed on a more general basis). Also Journey is clearly a very big dog with LOTS of hair and her being a rescue from a different country all together may have just made for an overwhelming situation in regards to her care (coat care or otherwise). This isn’t the type of dog I would see any groomers choosing to adopt, but Journey was a pet being saved from very difficult conditions and she deserves a good life. I don’t blame or judge her owners for the condition she was in here. I commend them for caring enough to even try so hard to get her properly taken care of. They did great and Vanessa worked a miracle.

@@joycooper5656 I curious if the groom that Journey's had here has made it so that she has a bit of a clean slate with her coat. Do the owners just need to do the daily brushing or does she need specific coat care since she had her double coat shaved. I'm most curious about the type of upkeep needed when you take care of a double coated dog who's been shaved and how that irreversible damage shows itself.

@@pickettle Oh gosh more replies (wasn’t expecting this, I’m flattered you all are asking me questions). I believe during the video Vanessa stated that Journey’s particular coat type isn’t standard so she doesn’t have the regular double coat of say a Malamute that would pull sleds so I can’t quite say what the damage there would be exactly. I can say that for most double coated dogs cutting into the second layer of coat would interfere with temperature regulation (staying warm in the cold and cool in the heat) as well as making the coat more difficult to work with (Vanessa has also said this as well) due to the damage from the clipper blades and the hair growing back coarser, patchy or not at all in some cases. I’ve seen this in Pomeranians quite often with the infamous “Boo Cut”. The best course of action for caring for a coat like Journey’s or a double coat in general is definitely daily brushing and combing, possibly multiple times a day so that by the time the pet goes in for their professional grooming appointment it won’t be quite so taxing for the groomer. With a dog like Journey though a tiring groom is unavoidable based on size alone 😅. I’m sure Vanessa gave the owners some coat care tips (I know I surely do). The owners can literally only try their best, but I’m sure it would take a village and maybe a couple days to brush/comb a coat like Journey’s to a tangle free state from head to tail. I personally would try to make brush days as positive an experience as possible, possibly include toys and treats and maybe include other friends/family that Journey feels safe around to help.

Yes!!

i’ll be convinced there’s fur all in my eyelashes and nose 😂

😂

Pretty sure that's why she wears that net

My nose itches!

I know right. She said she brought it out again. I never seen it. Do you know which video?

​@@pattieh5118 I think it was another malamute, or it might have been a St Bernard, but it was a video from June I'm pretty sure

@@Listening_Books12345 thanks Grace-it

I don’t understand have a watering can can you get water to penetrate for that the showerhead came out

Can you imagine going to the garden store to ask for the largest watering can "So i can water my dogs"

That was very generous. Just being friendly though, I hope you know that 2M+ subscribers on RU-vid, she is earning a nice chunk of change...

W human

bra she b makin like a 100k a month off youtube

Nearly 3M followers across 2 RU-vid channels. I bet her TikTok is going crazy as well. AND she has an online store

I'm happy for her success. We're enjoying her content and therefore she does not have to charge people for the hard work she does. I think it's a good trade.

Lol, rip

😂😂😂😂😂 I love those divas too much! 🖤🩶🖤🩶🖤

Thank you for literally making me laugh out loud 😂❤

What irreversible damage could occur when shaving a double coating?

My wooly husky is the same.

Yep! What Lizzy said!!

​@@sloopy5191 With you 2. They should have given her a dozen of roses 🌹 a bottle of champagne 🥂 and vacuumed the shop. I'm just saying!!

A win-win. As she said in a comment clients are req’d to make a donation to a rescue org (prob equal to cost of groom.) She’s able to do this due to the success of her videos and I’m guessing growth of GWTD biz incl products and future seminars. She doesn’t have to do what she does for animal charities but does and deserves all her success.

@repentandbelieveinJesusChrist1 Kings 2:23-24 “From there Elisha went up to Bethel. As he was walking along the road, some boys came out of the town and jeered at him. ‘Get out of here, baldy!’ they said. ‘Get out of here, baldy!’ He turned around, looked at them and called down a curse on them in the name of the LORD. Then two bears came out of the woods and mauled forty-two of the boys.”

She’s making a $hit ton of money from this channel.

Honestly I'm surprised she isn't straight up chiseled like a bodybuilder considering how much physical work she does for hours at a time.

Animals are so good to us even if we have done ao many bad things. I love em sm 😭❤

I loved that line and the "finally she is brushed out... on one side"

And me 😂

I broke my arm last year and the grooming motions (pulling down) are exactly what I was completely unable to do for 6 months and still have trouble with

Not only that but mental and emotional as well.....80% of groomer quit their chosen profession after only 5 years. That is older stats....so it's likely higher now. If Vanessa keeps this up she won't get to the 30 year mark which is where I am today. I had to let my larger dog's go a decade ago due to shoulder issues and yes, I am one of those groomers who would have clipped this dog down but mostly due to the fact that is likely over heating!!!

And that's a credit to the owners. Obviously, they put a lot of hours into training and socializing.
