He's one of the BIGGEST Goldens I've EVER seen!! 

Answers to FAQ’s Anal Glads I clean the anal glands at the owners request. It is important that the dog itself express their anal glands. The anal gland is a muscle in the dog’s rectum and the more you manually do it the more you’re teaching the dog not to use it’s muscle. Honestly groomers really shouldn’t express anal glands. If the anal glands are compacted a vet should be doing it but if your dog is having issues with anal glands you should add fiber to the diet. Music Unfortunately I can’t use the complete shop noise because we play music in the background that I can get copy written for so I have to drown out that music with something or no sounds at all. If I put in background music I can leave a little shop noise in. So, I will always add music unless it is not necessary to do so. “Roughness” During the bath I speed up the time to trim the video shorter in length so, things may seem “rougher” than they actually are because what you’re watching is a bit distorted. Also, when you hear me firm with a dog it is to train them for safety reason so they do not get seriously injured now or in future grooming appointments. Scissors & Matting I didn’t use scissors because they are way more dangerous than clippers. Clippers I can pull away quickly but shears are very sharp so if the dog moves I could’ve cut him/her really bad. Groomers are actually taught never to use shears to cut out a mat because it’s so dangerous. I’ve seen so many instances where people (owners and groomers) have cut dogs bad because they were trying to cut the mat out quick and actually cut the dog. Voiceovers Voiceovers go hand in hand with the music. My viewers like to know what is going on and what tools I am using and why. We also like to discuss topics related to dogs so I will talk about that in my voiceovers. I will always do voiceovers unless it is not necessary to do so. Video Angles I switch up my angles so that the majority gets a view they like. If you’re looking for a head mounted view that is typically Wednesdays or point of view could be Mondays or Fridays. Stationary camera view is either Mondays or Fridays Coddling Dogs/Puppies I don’t coddle dogs during grooming because grooming is a serious matter dealing with sharp tools that can injure a dog greatly. If a dog or puppy is throwing a tantrum I will not stop to hold or comfort the dog because they don’t understand like we do. They consider that rewarding. So, by me “comforting” them during a tantrum or spastic moment, it is actually backfiring and training them that if they act up the groomer will stop and they will get what they want. Which is how dogs end up getting hurt during grooming and hating it. So, play time is for before or after grooming and never during. Assumptions This final one is not a question but more of an assumption some people have. Some people assume, because I didn’t put it in the video, it didn’t happen. Just because you don’t see it doesn’t mean it didn’t happen. As groomers and editors, we cut out a lot of “unnecessary” content so what you are watching is NOT actually how the day went. So, if you have a question of whether or not something happened during the process that is NOT in this pinned comment, please feel free to ASK and NOT ASSUME. Shampoo/Conditioning I do NOT use a lot of shampoo. The bottles that I use are mixing bottles and are predominantly water. I thoroughly wet the coat and scrub them really well which creates the nice lather so they are actually clean when I am finished. Ears Yes I clean and pluck ears but only when necessary. If a dog has clean ears, there is no need. If a dog has matted ears and matted hair in the ear canal, I won’t pluck the ears if I have to shave the ears down to avoid hematomas. Yes I put cotton balls in the ears for certain dogs who are prone to ear infections and I use happy hoodies for senior dogs or noise sensitive dogs. If you ask me something that is in this section, I will respond, refer to the pinned comment. Also, know I have very sarcastic humor and in general a sarcastic person (not in a bad or annoying way lol) so if you comment something sarcastic or smart mouth, I will reply with something sarcastic in return 🤣🤣 Thank you all for the constant love and support and I’ll catch you in the next video 🙏🏾❤️❤️ For The Luv Of Dogs 🐶

Commenting at the beginning but wow he's a big boy!

He is so loveable and gorgeous! Great job! I enjoyed this video!

Glad I could catch your upload early. Does that help with your algorithm?

He's so beautiful and so sweet.... I have a Goldador, she looks just like that baby but jet black.... Great job.... beautiful baby!!!!

Realize this is a 3 week old video--I am just now seeing it. I am assuming Simba is a neutered male, and the reason I say this is because of his coat. Yes, Goldens have a silky coat but when they are spayed or neutered it totally changes the texture of the coat--it becomes lighter, thicker and more straw like. This occurs in many breeds, along with the breed I raised and showed for 30 years. Some had to be spayed/neutered for medical reasons, and I hated seeing what it did to their beautiful mahogany coats. Thought you might be interested in knowing this. Thanks for sharing.

I feel so so bad for simba such a good boy and he loved his groom😢

Simba made me cry😢

Simba needed this grooming! Thank you for being so patient with him!👍👍👍

Very nice groom he could barely move poor boy

Hyper is fast, hypothyroidism is slow...it's why the weigh gain

You did a good job ..but small dogs video is better ...big dogs are just hard to move not much fun

Hypo is the other type of thyroid problem. You may want to tell dad that giving a strong good all purpose vitamin can help some with the thyroid

I love how he keeps looking back at you like he adores you. You know that it feels good with the combing and gentle cutting.

I love Golden Retrievers , beautiful dogs !! ❤❤❤ subscribed from Canada 🇨🇦

I think your a great groomer 😂 how long you been doing grooming ? 😊

Aww so handsome nice work

Simba looks like he's enjoying his bath🎉🎉🎉🎉

I want a Golden Retriever so bad but can't afford to buy one wish I could find one I take a puppy

He’s such a big hairy sweet 🐶 😊

Interested in what the wood is and why on the top of the grooming table ?

Simba is a beautiful thicc floofy boy!

I have never seen a groomer uses so much shampoo 😁

I watch 4 dog groomers and only 2 of you actually scrub the dog. 3 of them have the same nozel ststem as yours but the shampoo is added onto the nozzle. One of them says the pressure from the nozzle is enough so the shampoo does not need to be scrubbed on the dog. I totally disgree with that so thank you for scrubbing the soap in and cleaning the dog thoroughly. I enjoy your videos.

He super big!

he is enjoying the blow dry. i like your channel.

Awe Simba ❤
