I made cotton candy with an Alaskan Malamute 

That’s my girl!!! 😍 Thank you so much Vanessa, it’s amazing to be able to see her getting groomed, definitely a memory our family will cherish forever❤

I’ll always remember my first time meeting a malamute. I was in the waiting room of the vets, with my dog, and I asked if I could say hello to this huge and very beautiful dog and the owner said yes as she was super friendly. Afterwards, I sat back down in my seat and the malamute dragged her owner off the chair to come and sit by me for more cuddles 😂😂 I was smitten 🥰

What a sweet dog, not even just for a Malamute but for any dog. I think even Girl with the Dogs was surprised, she was expecting the worst at the beginning.

i had a malamute up until a few years ago, and whilst i've gotten over her passing to the extent that i'm not actively pondering it anymore, seeing this girl just brought a tear to my eye; it wasn't her coat or her shape or the shedding or anything like that, it was the view at 4:33 or so where you could see the back of her head, where those dumb little dorito ears stick out of her big ol' head and solid neck, like they belong on a dog 2 sizes smaller i used to make fun of my malamute's comparatively little ears all the time and play with them and bother her a bit whilst i was at it, and while i'm very much not a sentimental guy, i wasn't really expecting to get such a punch in the throat from such a dumb source of nostalgia what a dumb thing to feel sad over, haha, 10/10 dog right there

That fur being totally dry underneath is amazing by itself. It's evolved that way to keep them warm even when wet and far below zero. When I had cold hands from newspaper delivery, I'd stick then in our Bernese' fur. But even then, it was hard to get to the warmth.

I have a male malamute and he HATES grooming. Doesn’t get aggressive but is stubborn the whole way through, Malamutes are very independent and it can be hard to work with them, but their independent mouthiness is also my favorite thing about them! Nala is beautiful and did so well despite her grumbling 😂💕

30+ years ago my sister had 2 wolf hybrids. I remember grooming them in her backyard one day. My goodness, the amount of fur! The entire yard was filled.

Vanessa: Malamutes can be stubborn, they can be mouthy… Nala: What are you talking about, I am an angel-ok NOW MA’AM YOU ARE TRYING MY PATIENCE oooh snacks? Ok fine.

This video had my skin itching and I realized I was wiping nonexistent fur off my face during the drying process. 😂 What a sweet doggie! A beauty, too.

Nala: "You should have said there would be _treats_ at the beginning. Could have saved us both a lot of effort."

I love her expression at the begiining, when you tell her, she needs to get up: "Do I?" So hawty. But overall a very sweet, charming, well behaved dog, despite her sensitive paws. And her cute, fluffly tail is just too adorable!🥰

6:17 the hoody making her head so tiny and her big fluffy body made me laugh. So cute

She seemed pretty mellow. I think she actually enjoys the tactile sensation of washing and brushing/ combing.

What a well behaved pup. She did very well. She looks like a stunning wolf.

Nala is the cutest ball of fur

My dog suffered seizures her whole life and it was impossible to find groomers who would take her on. It makes me happy that you are bringing awareness to this problem and helping other owners who need help! (She has since passed from cancer, but she was the best dog I could have ever asked for)

When the Happy Hoodie fell off her that was too funny 😂

As someone who many years ago owned a malamute, yes they are stubborn. I had her in a group obedience class, the trainer told me up front she would be a handful, overall she did well but the trainer said , we got as far as she wanted to go. The trainer initially said as a sled dog, you want one who realizes the ice is thin and refuses to continue as you life depends on it. She was a great dog, there was a fire station about 6 blocks away, I swear she heard the alarm go off and would start to howl.

She looks like a little babushka bundled up against the winter wind in the happy hoodie. Such a precious girl! Sweetest face!💕

I would love to watch clean up videos as well as the long format grooms. I think it would be a great addition to this channel to watch the furnado aftermath get cleaned up!

I can’t imagine a dog her size having a seizure. It was scary enough with a lean 60lb dog, and I certainly wouldn’t know what to do were it to happen on a grooming table! She’s a very sweet girl and I hope she has many more happy years ahead

Vanessa: "Ok; you're gonna have to stand up." Nala: "Um; OK. Fluff you."

When I was a little girl, we had the best dog ever. Her name was Keesha, and she was a Husky/Malmute mix. She treated me like I was her puppy lol... she wouldn't leave the yard without a leash, would watch the kids and keep them out of trouble, and I never heard her growl once in all her 13 years. Bathing her was, indeed, a nightmare. Everyone got wet and I can still smell the soap. We still find her hair all over the house even a decade after she passed. Fly high Keesha-girl.

“You’re going to have to stand” zooms in to Nala: “why?”😂

Malamutes are stubborn but gosh they are so friendly. I can't imagine being upset with such a dog.

Just did this to my malamute yesterday. Trying to get the undercoat wet is a pain and then we made all the birds in our backyard very happy by making our own furnado.

I love how she looks at 6:38 look at my fur fly-she looks so satisfied and happy.

Another beautiful bear!!!!!!!!!!!! She behaved so well 😍

I couldn't help but chuckle, because for some reason seeing her in the Happy Hoody made me think of a sweet 90 year old Russian babushka going to the market to do some grocery shopping. 🤭

Both of my dogs are epileptic (different breeds, lucky me!). Fortunately, one of them is super chill and doesn't get stressed about anything, so she doesn't have seizures often. UNFORTUNATELY, the other one has severe separation anxiety and sometimes has seizures in clusters (3 or more in 1 day). His first cluster went on for 24 hours, with a seizure every 20-30 minutes and I had to take him to the hospital. I thought I was going to lose my mind. I don't expect him to live past 10 years old. He's already 7.

She is such a sweet dog. I just love watching you work. So gentle and calm, your love of animals shows.

My family had a male malamute when I was growing up and he was the absolute sweetest boy. He was so patient with me when I was a baby, he would let me crawl over him and would give me little kisses if my face got within range. Big ol' sweetheart with my dad too. He would roll over to receive belly rubs at every opportunity. Also loved to nap in the bathtub so he had some quirks 🤣

Aside from her nails and a few stubborn moments, she was so good! Also, I'm not sure I realized that Dogs can get seizures. I guess I vaguely knew it was possible, but have never actually heard any specific cases or stories of it actually happening. Ya learn something everyday.

I loved the polite but firm way she cast off the happy hoodie.

It’s always a good day when Girl With the Dogs 2 uploads a video! 😍🎉

Nala is so incredibly pretty, and well behaved! Even looks like she’s happily wagging her tail at 2:13 🥹🥰

What a huge and beautiful dog. She was such a good girl.

She's so beautiful. I just want to wrap my arms around her and give her a big hug.

Nala came out beautiful. Vanessa always does a great job at grooming and caring for her clients.

My friend's old dog was epileptic, and I did witness him have a seizure once during a sleepover; it was indeed very scary. And he was a little 20-pound mini poodle, and on a clear area of the carpeted floor when it happened! I can only imagine how terrifying a seizure would be were it to happen on a grooming table or in the bath, especially with a large dog like a Malamute. Glad to see this lady made it through her groom without such an incident! And my goodness, what a load of fluff!

My sister had the sweetest malamute on planet earth...it went to work with her every day and never made a PEEP unless she was just picked up from daycare. I swear we didn't even know she could bark until daycare happened. She was the most unmalamute malamute. Super calm, laid back, not noisy and just all around amazing dog who loved everyone

The “woman would you finish the hell up” look she gives at 6:11-6:13 is Oscar worthy

i love how the dog just understands and listens to everything she says. her reactions are pure gold

1:36 this face in response to you telling her she was gonna have to stand up was HILARIOUS 😂

I follow a RU-vidr called Sherpa he is a 12yr old Husky/Mal cross and he has vertually no tall, Nala's is full floof ...how gorgeous is she though really 🥰

At 7 minutes when you started digging into her flanks with the brush, I laughed cause you can immediately HEAR how much hair this animal is holding onto.

What a gorgeous dog!!! You were so good with her!!

Wow, she was totally chilled out for everything except the paws.....great job!!!

1.41 in and Nala explains WHY a towel is needed outside the shower 😁

She is just beautiful and so well behaved....for a diva!!!😊😊❤️❤️

My dog has epilepsy as well. My dog gets really stressed at the vet so he has seizures there. Unfortunately he isn’t food motivated either. I’m glad it is just the epilepsy and not more, just on some expensive medication. 😂 glad this girl was pretty calm for her groom. As you probably know many northern breeds hate their paws being touched.

Omg the way she danced when she heard the treat bag. 😅 simply adorable

there is nothing but pure rage in her eyes for the dryer 5:22

Love how well the food bribery worked. She was much better behaved during the second try at nail clipping.

they're so pretty it's unreal. Their pattern looks like someone drew them

I’ve got nothing but care and high esteem for these owners. I’ve been in multiple situations where grooming and vet bills were huge bills but those bills were a small price to pay for the love and life of these furbabies. I’ve got three fur kids sleeping in bed with my husband at this very moment. I’m disabled and my husband had a stroke this last Father’s Day. Love and laughter to all furbaby parents out there!! ❤️💫🐶🐶🐶🐶💫❤️

Is it just me or does seeing the dog in a happy hoody always make my day. It's just too funny and cute. Your video's have helped me groom my own dogs and save a whole lot on grooming costs! Thank you

4:59 the best part of each groom, those ears ♥️

Beautiful dog. I have developed a deeper appreciate for what you do. Especially when you are 4'9, such a small feame for so many large dogs. I'm also becoming a fan of Nonna. Sweet family and incredable food!

I don't know how anyone else's screen looked like but mine screen look like it was snowing. You weren't kidding when you said she was blowing fur. Wow!! I looked at all the fur she blew at the end and it was almost as tall as this big girl! She did very well and looks fantastic!

The editing when she says “um, you’re gonna have to stand up” and then the cut to her little face was perfect 😂

idk why but hearing about this poor girl and the seizures has me emotional and reminded me of my late german Shepard who passed a couple years ago at 7. I remember waking up in the middle of the night and sitting with him through the drool and pee making sure he was ok and didn't hurt himself. Worth every second being there for him even though there wasn't much to do.

Her little tippy tapping when she got the treats was adorable

I clicked this video because the video still contained a dog that looked a lot like my Nala, a very cuddly German Shepherd - and then this girl is also named Nala. And this Nala was also sweet like my Nala, too. So of course I really liked this! RIP my baby ('99-'12).❤️

Such a beautiful girl. She's bound to feel better with all that fluff gone

I love how she just lets the happy hoodie falls off. She’s beautiful! You are wonderful with each pet you groom.

She's very politely saying "No!" during the dry. And my goodness, so much fur!!!!!

Lol at the faces she makes and especially that nu hairdoo at the end!❤❤❤ thank you for sharing with us❤

She was a sweetheart through most of the groom. She gave new meaning to the phrase “she is blowing her coat”, literally😁.

Nala is a very good girl- but then again, I've only had non-grooming experiences with Malamutes so I'm inclined to think they are pretty lovely in general. Nice to see a groomer get WET- people don't understand how complete an experience bathing a large, coated dog can be! LOL

That’s one of the most zen dogs during a bath I’ve seen.

I love how verbal she is! Seems like a little dramatic sweetheart!

She looked so good after your wonderful work.

one foot done, 3 more to go, shes adorable and very very smart, she knew the scissors wouldn't hurt her, very smart, great amazing groomer

She has just the sweetest face!

Apart from the little bit at the end with the feets, a hugely polite, well behaved and endearing dog.

That is one of the most chill Mals I've ever seen.❤

i had a malamute and they are super smart and so pretty ! they don’t like water but they love snow- 3 layers of fur!

What a beautiful dog. You can tell her humans love her.😉

I wish humans could exibit such stoic and calm patience!! Whatta great baby!

Thank you for all that you do! You're a wonderful human being ❤

Amazing the amount of fur that comes out when you blow dry!!!!

What a well behaved dog!!! Such a sweetie!

My dog is epileptic, and when he’s about to have a seizure; he usually starts rubbing his head with his paw. And gives us an extremely sad look. So he gives us a few seconds to react, and move him to where he’s not going to hit anything when he’s going through the seizure. He takes medication, and so far so good, no seizures in the last 4 months 🙏🏼🐾💙🐺

My son showed me your channel and I’ve been hooked ever since. I love how careful you are with all the dogs and very proficient! I wish I would of done grooming as a career, you make it look easy. But, from grooming my own cats and dogs I realize how heavy the work actually is, especially washing them.❤🎉

"There is going to be a little bit of a furnado happening" - proceeds to make it snow in the salon. My lord, what a beauty. I'm not a dog person, but they all seem so lovely in your hands.

You're amazing at your business. You know your craft!

Appreciate the info on each breed of dog that comes to your shop. These vids are a sort of therapy for me...

I just love your channel! There’s something almost mesmerizing. And you have such a lovely voice and genuine connection with your clients. I think you’re just the best!🎉

I've been watching your grooming videos for only a few days (maybe 2!) And I'm completely impressed with how caring, loving and professional you are. These vids are amazing! Thank you so much!

Her salt and pepper fur is so beautiful 😍

That dog looked like she was having a good time for pretty much the entire session! What a sweetheart. 🇨🇦💕

I Love how whenever you are doing something she likes her tail goes up and she leans into it, such a good girl! And gorgeous too!

I expected far more screaming when it came to the blow dryer part . Very well behaved and beautiful dog overall .

such a beautiful malamute, and she looked magnificent at the end after the groom! great job! (and she is actually really well behaved for most of the part in the video... :) )

so cute to see how she gives up fighting you touching her paws after some treats

What a beautiful dog! So glad she did well. Loved the photo at the end:)

Mals can definitely be a workout, but they are some of the sweetest dogs in the world. They're just everybody's best friend.

Another Nala... I never realized how many people named their pets Nala or Luna. It makes me laugh. She is a gorgeous dog!!! (Even more with your grooming!)

My neighbor has a malamute and she is a very sweet girl, she loves to run around and we let her run in our yard as well as my neighbors. Whenever my cats lay in the window, if she's outside she'll sit right there looking at them so excitedly. It's adorable
