Today I groomed bear cubs | American Akita puppies 

Thank you so much Tessa!

Yeah, her inspiration extends beyond gender and field of work, Girl With The Dogs is amazing.

@God Creep

cutest dogs inspired everyone

Motivational. Keep inspiring people. Kind words go far.

Huskies: Nature's ultimate drama queens.

Screaming solves all Husky problems.

@@lilwyvern4 think mine is broken. He IS very expressive with his face but he is not vocal at all. He barks but not much and unlike internet Huskies, he is not a drama queen. He is more like a grumpy old man and he is still relatively young, he likes to stay on bed or couch and has little to no energy. I have to force him to go on walk and while he does like them, he is the embodiment of the sin of Sloth.

@@gwagner1380 what you got there is a silent but deadly drama queen, I have one myself and they aren’t vocal but will be dramatic, if fully triggered. Those expressions are actually them being dramatic, however mine will let it known when something triggers them. I’ve gotten sassy looks and other expressions that may look normal, I can now detect when they’re going to be in trouble.

Puppies: Can't screm, need nap Huskie: *screaming cowboy meme*

whyd you have to go and make things so complicated? i see the way youre acting like youre somebody else. gets me frustrated. simply admit that i am the funniest and greatest and sm*rtest and coolest and strongest yout*ber of all time! admit it, dear jac

@@AxxLAfriku is this like another one of this tiktok trends

The "=w=" Face is a good hint they enjoy the dryer

Unless you're an intruder.

Same with shar pei

They remain the silent type for most of their lives. They only bark for fun, while playing as young pups. They only play fetch while young pups. They are calm house dogs that need to be with their pack, not good yard dogs. They have an eardrum-busting bark yet only bark in real emergencies! You know like: the house is on fire, the baby is choking, strangers near the house, grandpa just fell down the stairs, that kind of thing. They are classified as "non-barking working dogs". Love 'em!

@@hermitcard4494 yes, I had a drunk man come to my fence (accidentally) thinking it was his house and my lab/Akita went absolutely crazy. He didn’t shut up until the man left.

That’s anime level 😂

yawn

@@paulmcdonough1093 fart

"Hello. My name is Kuma Jr. You groomed my father. Prepare to die... _of cuteness."_ 🐻😈

LOL!!!

I can confirm they also do that as adults. Its all fun and cute until they have their annual shed and kill the vacuum.

@@Thecircustapes I was wondering about shedding since the puppies didn’t have a flurry of fur with the dryer. Do they have the double coat like huskies?

@@daleesful yeah, my boy has 2 super bad annual blowouts but then he doesn't really shed at all the rest of the year.

@@daleesful they are pretty serious seasonal shedders, and they do have a double coat (they are also spitz line like huskies) so they will blow out a lot of fur twice a year

​@@daleesful YES 😭 my akita girl is 1 year old, this is her first shed, and her hair falls in CLUMPS. You will pet her and be left with whole patches of hair on your hand and clothes and nose. I am not even allergic to dogs but I am suffering, my nose is stuffed and no matter how much I vacuum and sweep and mop and brush there is HAIR EVERYWHERE.

I don't get it, what happened?

@@rachell452 Some guy tried to break in. My mum called the police and they actually it’s common for people to break in at middayish so, yeah. Only downside is she’s began fake barking at stuff to get treats lol

@@amzigator. what type of neighborhood

@@amaterasu1145 does it matter?

@@amzigator. Clever hound lol!

Where did he go?

@@warnegoodman he probably passed. This was a dumb comment for u to make.

@@warnegoodman he sadly passed a few years ago ❤️

I'm sure he was amazing, I'm so sorry:( he's still with you tho

@@ddwegqfjefgfgbj thx u ❤️❤️❤️❤️

WHAT!!!!

But kuma isn’t dead?

im gonna need evidence ab this

@@lightluceaudios Vanessa posted it around 5 months ago on her community :( He sadly passed away at the young age of 7.

​@@uriviashiwhat? Does she know what he died of? Poor pupper...

Rest well Kong

I can’t believe they sent a dog to jail

@@Michael-ev6pt I believe that the owner was put in jail?

Thank you for being a Hero and saving a life. Sorry your ex did not appreciate the wonders and joys of life with dogs. We never stop missing those paws do we. Kong is most likely showing all the dogs in God's Garden, his wrestling moves that may have helped get a not right for you person out of your life. Never underestimate the finesse of a dog that can judge character. One of the things my EX said is if his two Siamese cats accept me, he would date me, so fair is fair, if my cat accepted him, I just might marry him. Though our marriage did not last, our friendship and respect for each other continues. Hope your life is still full of wonder.

Thank you for saving Kong and showing him love, respect and loyalty.

My parents have a lab & a Maltese. If the Maltese barks you’re like “eh” If the lab barks, you go and inspect immediately because chances are something is wrong. Then you go & steady the nerves because you jumped out of your skin. His bark is SO loud 😅

With how big these dogs are I feel like it's "You HAD an intruder"

I have a pair of Great Pyrenees that are live stock guardian dogs. They almost never bark but when they do it's for a reason. Usually if I hear them bark at night I'll wake up to my 185lb male pink (they are mostly white dogs) and find a recently deflated coyote, but the sheep and chickens are all fine and accounted for. Side not, before we figured out how to fix proof the coop and we didn't have the dogs yet. 2 separate times I went to get eggs and found a dead fox half eaten. Red Junglefowl are downright brutal chickens. These were all hens and they killed a fox twice! I have a rooster now and he scares me sometimes with how focused he gets in his attacking of food stuffs like lizards and the occasional garter snake

@@jeffreyhill1011 yeah that sounds about right. Chickens are terrifying creatures that never forgot they used to be dinosaurs

*INTRUDER ALERT: A RED SPY IS IN THE BASE!*

The apple doesn't fall far from the tree, as they say 🙂

i own one and they really are :(

they are

It’s not about the dog it’s the way it’s been raised 😀 (just kidding ; that’s the type of dumb cliché people who don’t know much about dogs often say!)

I had neighbors who owned a massive male Chow and and equally massive male Akita. I don't know how they kept the peace, but just seeing those two dogs together scared the heck out of me!

I had two my female was the most chill dog, wouldn't have hurt a fly, dog park was fine. My male played about absolutely nothing, he was a protector who loved his family but with other dogs he was a huge liability. Same house. Same training and socializing including agility training. Two very different temperments, glad to have been owned by Akitas but they are most definitely not for everyone.

Tazzie - 'Cause they're still bebes, unsure of why they were soaked, soaped and 'smoochied' (though I suspect they liked that part)... 😙

Kind of like human brothers and sisters.

They’re siblings. All animals are like this

If an animal has a brain that's big enough and packed with enough neurons, they have a personality. Even mice.

Humans are animals as well, we act the same when socialised

literally every animal is like that☠️

My Serotonin levels are through the roof.

Vegeta would make a great Akita name😂

​@@Intheknow12 Especially if it has the RBF to go along with it!

My cheeks hurt from grinning.

Now that's a millennial reference you don't hear enough anymore

Yeah, they all looked scared to death.

Scared, but brave. Good pups!

I just wanna hug them, and give them all the treats.

@@prospero4183 Same!

They are babies and have never experienced being wet all over like that.

I LOVE that phrase, that’s such a fun way to put it. Totally using that from now on.

Yes, they’re very well built ☺️ Kuma Jr definitely has his father’s looks and temperament!

My grandpa used to say "built like a brick sh*thouse 🤷‍♀️😆

Well put together, that’s so cute!!!!

Looks like a box of fluffy anti-depressants

it was O_O

Thank you for the timestamp that made me giggle

The timestamp was coming up just as I read this comment and I was not disappointed. I squeeed the entire time!!!

I was so used to the happy hoodie that i forgot how cute it was to see floppy ears!!

THE SEROTONIN!!!❤️❤️

XDDD she was chaaaaarmeddd im tellin u XD

Yeah being scared of akidas is a good idea for dogs I love mine to death but she is not very fond of our non-akida dogs , but to be fair both the pom and the chihuahua tried to duck with her puppies on her first litter and they keep stealing her food so it's kinda valid I dont need any shit for not having her spayed, I know what I'm doing we breed service dog's for ptsd and asd and akidas do that very well with their guarding behaviour

My AA boy loves and is being loved by Husky ladies 😍

Himbs must be so hambsomb

Haha they are cat like and love to explore! My uncle had a Jindo (a Korean close relative of the Akita with the same loyal yet aloof personality) and he loved exploring the neighborhood on his own even up until his very last days!

And safe

And safe

🥂

Same!!

The best cuddles for sure

*now considering putting an Akita in my story*

THANK YOU, for sharing ZOOEY with All of us! You and ZOOEY have definitely made my morning! 🙏🏽😃 Much love- Xo

Amazing story! Sounds like something other bars should do.

Wow that's amazing. So they can detect pregnancy! Wow

@@Leslie_the_Great Dogs are incredible. They can tell the scent has changed. They can't necessarily tell if it's a good thing or a bad thing, but they can scent the difference. Sometimes, dogs have warned people of a cancer growth that they could detect. I don't know if this is only with a human known to the dog, or if some dogs can do this with stranger-humans. And then there are the assistance dogs who can tell when their human is about to have a seizure. Either because there's a chemical change, or perhaps the body language changes enough for the dog to see it, but not enough that the human knows yet.

@@hazelangus Fascinating stuff! Thanks for the insight

Those dogs know better what to do than many partners. ❤️❤️❤️ Such a wonderful heartwarming story!

Dogs are intuitive

That's so true. When I got my wisdom teeth removed, my Akita literally laid on top of me the whole time I was sleeping and somehow it felt very comforting.

@@Ms.MD7 like a VERY heavy weighted blanket! Adorable! 🥰

Thank you for sharing your story. Dad said when you have 5-girls you need big fearless powerful dogs. My dog Bob saved me twice bet the age of 12-16 fm 2-child rapist. He ran my 20-something brother's pal, who tried to climb thru my bedroom window, up a tree in our side yard & held him there til dad got home. One short visit to our house for a barbecue & the guy took inventory of the house & us girls. I didn't see the guy. Bob was chilling in the backyard & came from around the backyard quiet as a mouse til the guy got the window open. I ran out the front door after hearing a scuffle. Bob tore a huge hole down his entire leg, below the knee. As his leg dripped blood down the side of the tree, he begged me to get my dog. No charges because Bob was the only witness of his sadistic behavior. At 12 a childhood friend's 20-something brother came to the playground where we were on the tower arc & told him his mom wanted him. When he ran home, the felon man tried to grab me off the tower. We lived across the street, he froze, & I got my arm free. When I looked up, I saw Bob gallopping across the green. Not a bark nor a snarl. He was on a rescue mission. His size & presence was enough. I jumped off the 1/2 moon tower & the man jumped on the tower, better get yo dog. Bob was my constant companion. We always walked, rode bikes, & ate everything together. He was given the best of everything...rip brave soul.

Ultimate love

Absolute gigachad

My Husky would have been all over that situation.

Haha, they were probably like "Sheeeesh Ma, it's just Greg! We cornered him 2 months ago, he played dead and literally s#%# himself"

@@yakamen lol

@@yakamen it’s just Greg 😂😂

The opossum probably paid them well

I have one of those right now but he's 9 so I wish I could buy more time with him...had him since he was a baby

That sounds like a beautiful pupper.

Great name 😄

Such a cute name and I’m sure he was as cute as his name! ❤️

The groomer's NOT bad either! ;o)

damn, dont care about the coat, care about the personality that pup was literally the only one hugging XD a cute little thing, truely ging to grow up into a sweet dogger :D

@@TheGreatoutdoorsAndGourmetVic I'm straight as an arrow and still think she's a real cutie

@@mamacat63 Who? The puppy or Vanessa?

I am shaking too! Tell me! 😚❤

@@Randy1337 HUH?

Isn't southern California too hot for an Akita?

@@Rh-sl2kt There are mountain ranges where it’s not as hot. They even get snow.

@Rh Live in Orange County CA and my family and I have always had American Akitas. It's a desert, so it does get hot but also cold at night. Anywhere near the coast and much of OC and LA county they'll be good in, far inland like Riverside is much too hot. Akitas are house dogs, so on the really hot summer days, our Kenji sleeps for much of the day and then patrols the backyard all night. Goes for walk in the morning and evenings. Keep in mind Akitas are not a great fit for most people.

@@lm8499 can confirm, lived right by Big Bear

@@Dickpuffnstuff as someone who lives in Riverside I can confirm it's the Devil's armpit down here in the summer, and gets pretty cold at night especially in the winter. Perfect my Queensland Heeler though not so much for my terrier mix who's a drama queen.

Very common with larger breeds. When a puppy has big paws, that's how you know they're gonna be a big adult. I think it's absolutely adorable.

@@xRAINxOFxBLOODx Same. Big paws on small puppies are adorable.

@@xRAINxOFxBLOODx no way!

The bigger the paw the bigger the dog will grow. Mine has so huge paw and legs, she was always tripping until she grew up to them

Puppies are basically born with "adult-sized", in that their paws don't grow all that much. They have to grow into their paws 😊

Me too. I lost my Akita 4months ago & he was 14yrs old. I dont think I'll ever get over the heart break of it. I miss him so damn much.

Condolence to you guys! I also lost my 4 months puppy on Oct who we had since she was 2 weeks..(her mom couldn't produce milk and didn't care for her so my dad took her home) She was our first dog so everyone was devastated when she died because of leptospirosis...

Sweet dog.God protects you both. Amin🍓 وَٱللَّهُ خَلَقَ كُلَّ دَاۤبَّةࣲ مِّن مَّاۤءࣲۖ... Allah has created every [living] creature from water.

Very hard when dogs go. Had to pts my previous dog after he went into full renal failure at 15. Said I would never get another dog, year later adopted my Akita Akira from the dog pound of all places. Just handed in like she was a used jumper..

Omg how precious

sounds like your male Akita was Totoro

@@bdp8102 I was thinking the SAME thing 😆

PLS THAT'S SO 🥺

Thinking about being surrounded by all that fluffiness!

I have a dog that’s only 25% Akita but it’s one of his most dominant breeds (he is 6 breeds). He is small. Only 78 pounds but very thick. He shocked me when he easily hopped over a gate we have. It’s not high but my much larger Dobermans have never hopped over one. Just BOING. So much for that gate.

@@sonyafly You described it perfectly. That's how they do it. BOING! :D

@@rcar9115 He has to be with me and nothing will stop him getting to me it seems. I got him at a shelter and he attached to me on day 2. Not my husband who saved him from euthanasia. Thankfully with a behaviorists help he is much better and doesn’t try to break doors down or tear up hard wood floors to get to me anymore. He was just a mess because he was treated so poorly. He is all good now for the most part. Just very protective of me.

I wonder if we will ever get to see picks of the other Parent.

They are Kuma's accident litter. Ugh, it's irresponsible to allow that without a full examination of both parents' genetics. If they didn't want an accident they should have neutered their dog. If they DID want to breed him, they shouldn't have allowed him around any unspayed dogs whatsoever. (And male dogs, for that matter, since the dog-aggression is worse if a male dog is unneutered).

@@mindykoch3340 or if they own the mother aswell and didnt realise she went into heat either early or late and then it was an oops litter

@@mindykoch3340 They might have bought the dam as a puppy, and she might have had an early puberty. We don't know the circumstances. There's too little information to judge

@@raerohan4241 No, there is ample information: it was an accident litter. That alone is enough information to judge. They ADMITTED it was an accident; they admitted to that fault.

He seem very relax

Yes my Akita will be 11 this April, she was socialised as a puppy when one day she just wanted to dominate other dogs in the park.

Thank you for pointing that out. Too many people think socialization = turning every dog into a quintessential labrador. Nope. All it does is make things better than they would have been if you hadn't socialized them at all. RELATIVELY better but still, genetics are genetics.

Same, I socialized my two so much I thought I went too far and made them mushes. Well, one day my sweet boy turned on like a light and went for a Lab whose owner simply said hello. We stopped going to the park then

My husband's 1st Akita was poorly socialized as a pup & didn't tolerate other dogs, especially males. Then I showed up w/a large male retired Greyhound & somehow they became the sweetest best friends. Total luck. Our current Akita girl can not be trusted around any dogs ... ever.

Exact same, my boy was raised with a husky and a chihuahua and went everywhere with me meeting lots of different people and dogs but then he started hating other males but loved females and tolerated senior males...He is too friendly with people tho because I ran a store and was able to bring him with me every day and not many could resist petting him lol especially when he would climb into the display cases and display himself lol he also loves kittens and cats for some reason, complicated beasts lol

Love the philosophy.

Yessss

I would have done the same, 1000%

Yes! They see cute puppy videos like this and don’t realize the work and specifics of each breed.

Yikes

@@Sinappisoppa482 yikes

What if you get an Akita male and female when they are still pups? Is it less likely that they'll harm eachother and will instead form a sweet bond? This dog is so beautiful.

@@marikookie9004 NEVER get two puppies. They can develop littermate syndrome(even if not related to each other). It makes it extremely difficult to train them because they're so codependent, they also are at a higher risk of attacking each other. So yes, opposite sex is good, but you want to wait until one of them is an adult(18-24 months) before you get a second one. But even then, there's still a risk. They're mostly same sex aggressive, but I've seen ones that are aggressive towards all dogs. So I would wait to see how they tolerate other dogs before getting another

YO a fellow okie!!!

Golden retrievers are also very cute

Do you know Mary Beth from Rovers Dog Grooming? She's in Oklahoma. 🐶

Huskies are louder howlers than hound dogs!!! They just think that shampoo is worthy of a few prolonged howls called the shampoo serenade.

that's adorable 😭

My ex DIL wanted a Viszla because of their looks. Never mind the dog is a hunting breed and needs a lot of exercise. So the poor dog ended up in a large crate for hours on end. They wondered why he was so destructive. Poor dog. But a lot of people do that, get the dog for its'appearance rather than what it was bred for.

​​@@ash2larOne of my in-laws has a working-line red lab who spends hours in a crate all day in a house that's too small for him and that also has two other dogs, one of whom isn't crated as often and the other is barely crated at all (unsure if she even has a crate tbh). So he can hear them moving around. He is very energetic and destructive, and the amount of energy he has pent up makes him more difficult to train (because he doesn't have enough outlets, so when it's go time it's GO GO GO time). He's a sweet dog, but it's so sad to see him in that situation. Why did this relative get this dog? He's cute...

Casper has the "You shall die tonight" -expression.

i would love her videos too if they helped my boyfriends anger issues!! lol

Good luck fighting the good fight

Casper is probably questioning the path that led it be among dogs 😄

We just bathed our male Akita, Tatsu and RU-vid suggested this video shortly thereafter. My son mentioned how he missed our girl Misaki. She was our first girl Akita and she was something else. She, along with the Akita’s I grew up with, are greatly missed.

I am sorry for the loss of your furbaby.

Sameee I’m a cat person but that’s the cutest dog I’ve ever seen!

Just make sure you do research into the breed before you get one, they require quite a lot of work

Please, please do your research beforehand to make sure you will be able to properly care for a dog of this breed. These are _not_ beginner-friendly dogs. They require a lot of socialisation and rigorous training, among other things. If you cannot provide these things, absolutely do not get one.

My dad has owned four Akitas throughout his life, and I can assure you, don't own this dog if you are not a fantastic dog owner. I don't care if you're a good dog owner, or decent. These are not a beginner dog breed, these are not even an intermediate dog breed. You have to be experienced with dogs to own this breed. There are people out there that think. Oh, I can do this dog. I'm going to love to have a fluff ball with me. But they can have slight stubborn aggression ( getting very growly or nippy when they don't want to do something you're telling them to do) , they have rich personalities, and they do not do good with other dogs unless they are raised with them and/or you have great socialization training. There are amazing positives with having an Akita. But if you are not experienced, that won't matter. Because that dog will control you if you don't put it in its place and it's not properly trained. Most Akitas you run into and you think they are absolutely lovely, they have most likely been strictly trained. And also if you have little kids (or around them a lot) you just have to have them be very careful and watch all interactions with them and the dog.

I have a question: How would Nakita know to allow 1st responders to assist your daughter? Do they know that someone is there to help?

She KNOWS she the best and she's right
