This dog is the living embodiment of "I'm just happy to be here".
I'd love to have one of his pups. This is what a golden should be and most often isn't due to puppy mills.
@@HardcoreK1llar dude it isn't sus, what's wrong with you?
He has just met her, and he *loves* her.
I've known several golden retrievers that various friends have had over the years and in my experience that's pretty much standard for the breed. haha
@@valeriestevens5250 Very true. Dogs being bred carelessly shows either through looks or temperament, and most importantly-- health. They don't make the best of pets specially when they have bad temperament.
5 years old, retired show dog, ambulance therapy dog... this dog has accomplished more in life than I have
My parents might actually be proud of me if I were accomplished like Oakley.
Its really just the opportunities he's been given. If i had the same upbringing id be a show dog too
@@terick7388 that's strangely inspiring, thank you
Hello, Dr Joe Denski here!
are you Mexican?
Oakley has the purest expression of "Head empty, no thoughts, only happiness"
"polite, but not very bright"
Just...hollowed skull but a very very good boy.
Hmm
I seen “No thoughts, Head empty” so many times now
He’s a little confused, but he’s got spirit!
Oakley strikes me as the kind of retriever that very patiently stares at you, 4 inches from your face, while you’re sleeping-in on Saturday morning.
It smells of experience, mine is the same.😂
"Sooooo, are we doing something fun today, or are you just gonna lay there until noon? I'll sit on you if you don't get up..."
Help I'm imagining it and it's so cute
you’re making my miss my late golden, he was too dumb to get on the bed but he would just sit on the floor at the foot of my bed panting loudly from 8am sharp to whenever i woke up on the weekend
And when you wake up you find it staring at you like: 👁👅👁
As someone who has been on airplanes with supposedly human passengers, we could all learn a lot about being well behaved from Oakley.
supposedly human passengers💀💀😂
_"Supposedly human"_ 😅🤣💀
And also a lesson in being well groomed!
Also a lesson in taking a shower and smelling nice.
This is the best friggin comment lol
You can tell how conditioned he is to grooming. No pulling whatsoever, just completely still. What a good boy!
it may be specific to the breed. i have had two goldens and they both would get into the bathtub on their own with a little verbal urging. they did not like bath time, but they were good sports about it. it is afterward that the show started - running around, rolling and rubbing themselves all over the house. also, goldens love water
He even lifts his head to help her
I wonder if during these groomings he thinks, "Yay! Out of retirement and headin' for another big show!" 🐶🏆
He knows its his pamper day uwu
I wish the same 🥺
"He is the picture perfect representation of what it means to be a Golden Retriever" meanwhile the shot is of him shedding. That got me 🤣
that cracked me up too. lol.
As she once said, "They only shed twice a year - the first 6mo, and the last 6mo!"
@@trumpetpunk42 our golden died almost a year ago and I still find insane amounts of her hair everywhere in the house no matter how much we clean haha
@@ShotClanTxter Thanks for sharing this. I lost my pup (a German Shedder, not a Golden) almost 5 months ago. For a while I was still vacuuming up half a dog each time, but now it's dwindled off, which in a weird way makes me another kind of sad.
my cousin liked to offer visitors some tea with their mug of hair.
As a mailman in dog recovery *bitten over a dozen times, I can attest that Golden Retrievers are the one dog that can live up to the hype. I've never had a bad experience with a golden retriever or brown labrador. I will never forget his one time a golden retriever was charging towards me, and I was scared at first until I saw the tail wagging a million kms/second and the green tennis ball in the mouth lol.
😂😂 so wholesome
Ah, being bitten by dogs seem to be part of the mailman job description at this point. Need some armored limbs with built in air conditioning!
Just so you know a brown labrador is called a chocolate lab
@Psilocybin77 you ever deliver while trippin
@@Lorendrawn lol no dude, I tend to have really wild experiences when I do, and don't see the need for doing low dosing lol. I once did over 5g when I was angry and drunk and I got punished I think. Had a very bad time and haven't dosed much since. I am still extremely interested in research into the use of psychedelics for healing, spiritual connection, and mental well being. The world is in a constant state of crisis, and I think we ignore a very powerful and effective cure at our own peril.
He was actually holding his head low and still while you did his ears and shifting his body weight slightly when you groomed certain areas. He's clearly used to being handled. Such a good boy.
He did! I thought he was about to hand her the bobby pins. Such a cutie!
@@MizJilly 🤗♥️
@@MizJilly True! Aww 😂
One of the goodest boys I’ve seen on this channel, which is saying something!
Hello 👋👋👋
I say “Good boy” sometimes instinctively like the dog can hear me during these videos and Oakley definitely deserves it.
Me too!! 😂
I literally did the same thing like 30 seconds ago. Lol
I think I just found my people!
he is the goodest of boys
I always say good boy/girl to any animal. you're not alone!
A super model and therapist, what an accomplished Pawfessional. He's the goodest boy. I'm glad Vanessa got a client that didn't attempt to eat her for a change
Oakley has the most “good boy” energy of any boy on earth.
He is truly the goodest boy
I lost count on how many times I said "good boy" for the whole duration of this video. Oakley is such a good boy.
cute ;D
U talk to urself?
@@axesus6966 The urge to communicate to this good boy just how good of a boy I think he is leads to talking to a screen that cannot hear me
@@axesus6966 Nothing wrong with that as long as you're not clinically insane :P
I’m the 556th like 😈
When you said hes a therapy dog for some reason I teared up. The idea of going through horrible hardship and being greeted by this beautiful face just hits my heart
me too!
My labrador wasn't a professional therapy dog, but I used to take him to work (with elderly and demented people and adults with learning difficulties) and they loved him. He was a calming comfort and lots of fun in the park, for younger folk. He was just the best boy. I am also tearful.
One of my old therapist was part of a company with a co workers Golden retriver on their logo and he would sometimes come out and lick us
He was sweet
Admittedly, I've got a very, very soft spot for Golden Retrievers, maybe because I'm looking at one curled up on my bed that makes my life so much better, but, like Oakley, they always put a smile on my face.
They always have a smile on their face, too! 🥰
I need to give him the biggest hug, Oakley's so adorable 😭❤️
Let me be the first one to give Oakley the biggest hug if that's okay with you as I just can't wait to squeeze him tightly into my warmest & softest loving arms, Belynda.
I have one except he’s a cream
How do you have 1.6k and only two comments let me fix this😂
I wish the same 🥺
Hello 👋👋👋❤
This the kinda of dog you don’t ask “what the dog doin’?” Because you already know he is just being the best boy.
No no that's the perfect question to ask because prolonged silence is usually mischief afoot If they're not sleeping in the usual spots or its not the right time of day to be suspiciously absent.
❤
the look on his face when he has the head wrap while being dried says “ahh, the price of beauty”
Oakley looks both like a distinguished gentleman, and also a typical happy Golden. I love him so much.
What a golden goodboy! He looks so happy and smiley its contagious. Watching him is driving my depression away!
who has just made a coughing sound?
like a big puppy
Theres a video with "Here's Bailey". As soon as I see it, I have a big smile! 😉
I wish the same 🥺
Hello 👋👋👋
That's the friendliest, most sincere face I've ever seen. The only thing more gold than his coat is his heart ♡
And this is the sweetest, loveliest comment!!!! 🥰
Aww🥹
💛
I was raised alongside a golden. Most loyal, caring boy ever, never did a damn thing wrong in his life. I trained him when I was 9 and he was a model citizen. Miss him more than words.
How can anyone not love Goldens? They are the sweetest, most empathetic, gentlest dogs! Absolutely precious pups! 🇨🇦❤️🦮
Happiest dogs on earth !!
Meanwhile goldenDOODLES: 🖕🏻🙄🤔🥲🤪🤪🤪😠💕😎😒😔🤬😓🥱😴😵😵💫🥴😈👿👹👺
Oakley was more behaved than most humans while getting a haircut. 👍🏻😊🐶
As a licensed hairstylist that is the most accurate comment I have seen! Lol
As a show dog, he's been groomed enough times that he's been trained and knows exactly what to expect. He comes from one of the most relaxed, mellow breeds there is(one of the closest things to the ideal dog for 90% of households). Combine with that the fact that he's got at least one parent willing and able to invest top dollar for his needs(doing the show dog circuit is NOT cheap), and you have what is essentially every groomer's dream client.
What?
@@FreedomUninterrupted I bet you've seen all kinds/types of people; good, bad and the "just don't come back" again please. 😊😂😆
Oakley: former supermodel and current professional good boy 🥰😇 This furchild was a joy to watch, especially after the Caucasian Shepherd and Pekingese videos 😵💫 I hope Vanessa gets many more well-behaved clients for a while... SHE DESERVES IT.
That’s so cute
😂😂😂
I was thinking the same thing!😀
@@MrSullismom Glad you understand, lol! I mean, *we* all enjoy watching when the Huskies come and sing the song of their people, when the Persians have some patches of difficult matting, etc, but goodness gracious Vanessa really has earned a break.
yeah the Pekingese was wild. I had the same thought - good that Vanessa had a dog that didn't try to eat her this time.
For 15 long and loving years I had the pleasure of sharing my life with a golden retriever. Murphie never received one day of obedience or temperament training, she was just naturally the sweetest being in the world, unless you were a squirrel or lizard, she liked to hunt those in the backyard.
Oakley reminds me so much of my last retriever, not a thought between the eyes, but so patient and loving 🥰. Miss you piper, love you still.
Why do people think GRs are not intelligent?
@@ihsahnakerfeldt9280 it’s not that I don’t think golden retriever ain’t smart, but I saw my dog try to get her favourite toy out of a painting.
@@trumpeterswan8175 lmao
Man, Oakley just radiates good boy energy
You can definitely tell this dog has received encouraging and positive training. He’s so well behaved and so trusting. Excellent example of responsibility by the owners
Goldens are everything I love about dogs: affectionate, loyal, playful, and that smiley - looking jaw that makes them so cute. I want to adopt one (or a rescue with these traits) some day.
Was thinking the same. It’s no wonder why they’re so popular.
@@jillianmaloney3798 Yes!
My first dog was a golden, he was 12 days older than me and passed away in my arms when I was 13. That was back in 2008 and I still miss him every day. No matter when or where my death happens, I will be at peace knowing the first thing I see in heaven will be my boy.
My Dad used to say of Golden Retrievers that they're "sweet but dim dogs." As I see and interact with Goldens more and more over the years, though, I don't think they're dumb, I think they're just too happy-go-lucky to look as "studious" as other breeds.
Mine can act "dumb" (goofy) but is very smart. Sometimes too smart.... and stubborn.
I may be wrong but I am sure golden retrievers are quite close to the top on the list of most intelligent dogs
My grandfather had Goldens for hunting dogs, and at least some of them, like Grandpa’s dog Caesar, are exceptionally intelligent. Bonus: I totally LOVED Caesar, and he loved me😅; we were about the same age. So when I was a toddler, he was my bestest buddy! 😍 I could tell you stories about the great things he did! My grandpa trained him to dive into the water hazards on golf courses and fetch the golf balls out of them. Grandpa would then take them home, clean them, and sell them to golfers.
@@peachesbun8327 You are correct, they were listed in the top 10; number 4, actually, in a poll of about 200 obedience trainers and judges years ago, compiled by canine psychology professor Stanley Coren in his 1994 book "The Intelligence of Dogs." (With "intelligence" meaning obedience trainability. There are other kinds of intelligence.) I read recently a comment from someone who had trained most of the breeds in the top 10. They said that goldens' learning curve was a bit slower than that of some of the other breeds in the top 10, but their eagerness to please made up for that.
There's no way golden retrievers are dim dogs on average. They are one of the preferred breeds, along with Labradors and German shepherds, that are used for seeing eye work, which is very demanding.
Agree - I grew up with goldens and they aren’t dumb, people think they are because who could be in such a good mood all the time? They are fabulous beasts.
Love how he was smiling when you trimmed his ears, then proudly sat on the porch taking the air. ❤
I wish the same 🥺
Okay can we just take a moment to admit that while golden retrievers are extra lovable because they look like they’re smiling, that’s not actually a smile, it’s just a visual feature based on their face and head shape. Smiling is a phenomenon in humans and some other primates. Do cows smile? What about hippos? No, well neither do dogs. Now I will grant you that a tail wag = happy. But let’s stop overly humanising animals.
Before his bath, Oakley looks so much like my deceased baby boy Biscuit that I almost cried. Golden retrievers are such a lovely dogs! They require a lot of time with training and grooming and upkeep though. My boy would get hot spots And they're not a good dog for people who don't have at least 5 hours of free time of day. What a beautiful grooming session!
I adore this dog. He's so pure, innocent, perfect, and completely empty in the head save for love and happiness.
Oakley's diary:
8am: a walk! My favorite thing!
830am: breakfast! My favorite thing!
9am: bath! My favorite thing!
930am: blow drying! My favorite thing!
10am: hair clipping! My favorite thing!
Him walking in looking so happy just melted my heart.
Oh yes c:
I do love the light golden color, but the red-er golden retrievers are still my favorite despite how much this boy tried to change my mind.
Growing up, my family took in a giant schnauzer who was a retired show dog. She was used for breeding, and didn’t know life outside of a crate until she came to live with us. My opinion of show dogs is still skewed because of this, but it’s good to know that a lot of show dogs are beloved family pets.
Sounds like they were far more interested in it breeding and only showed it because it was a purebred. Ego came first.
looking into a golden's eyes is truly good for the soul
And probably good for one's blood pressure, too. He's a therapy dog, I'm sure he has a lot of experience with calming stressed or unhappy people down.
*Dog enters, walking right up to the camera with a smile and a wagging tail*
Me: Yup, that's a Golden retriever alright...:P (I've had a couple in my life, and have one presently. Definitely my favourite dog breed
❤
😇🥰
No.
@@toastyknuckles892 yes 😋
Fabulous, accomplished, sweet, beautiful Goldie!!!🥰❤️💕
These are the most chill dogs ever!! They're beautiful, smart, and gentle. Can't beat that!!
Oakley is a great example/embassador for behavior for a dog getting groomed. Chilled, relaxed, this is not a problem!! What a beautiful boy! and Rupert is a cutey too!
I agree; he reminds me of my golden. He is just happy to be there so you can really do anything. He even loves going to the vet because he gets attention and he never minds the temperature, vaccines, or prodding. It comes down to socializing him as a puppy but going to a very good breeder is the biggest difference. I've had a groomer say he was the best-behaved dog he has seen in his career which put a huge smile on my face.
This made me miss my pooh bear so much. When I was born, I was brought home to a proud golden retriever. Who, for some reason, thought I belonged to him and him only. He was constantly watching over me and no longer wanted to be in the yard. He wanted to be everywhere I was at all times and even found a way to lay in the crib next to me. Which was very hard to do considering he was the largest golden I have ever seen till this day. He got scolded for climbing in my crib but would still get right back in there. He even growled at my grandmom and other family members 1 time for passing me around and holding me. He really felt like I was his baby. Lol
Eventually, people accepted that he was a proud dad, and he was allowed to become a house dog and was literally my best friend.
We even tried to figure out how to get him to come to grade school with me. Lol. I miss him so much.🐶💕
LOVELY story!✌❤
Thanks so much..I adore goldens..best ever
A very good boy!
I wish the same 🥺
Lovely story. Sounds like he was a very sweet dog ❤
Oakley taught Buddha how to meditate. ❤
As a Buddhist I can confirm
This is the kind of dog you might find in the section of 'Hey I'm looking to adopt a near perfect dog'
Like yeah he didn't quite save any lives, but he is the family standard golden retriever, a beautiful and well mannered show dog, plus a therapy dog, how much nicer could he be!
This is clearly an A-plus dog. Very friendly, calm and used to the procedure. And a very handsome boy, too🥰
This is so soothing to my brain to see this calm boy get his groom. ❤️
Just seeing him be himself is comforting - that's how you know he's doing his job right!
Excuse meh Witch..
I was wondering if youd like yo ne friends with meh and converse in private? (regarding occult matters)
@@rammingspeed5217 Did you say... witch?? BURN HERRR!!! 🤣
Some of these animals are just beyond words with cuteness. How people can mistreat them is beyond me!😣
That wasn't a grooming. That was just a happy dog enjoying spa day 😀
He is an absolute angel. Golden Retrievers are such magical creatures. ❤
What a stunning dog, both in temperament and looks. And that smile! No wonder he's a therapy dog.
Oh my goodness! Such a well behaved pupper! He was “ok spa day!” Honestly I just want to cuddle Oakley. ❤
This reminds me of my baby girl. RIP Penny. ❤
I love how much patience and love you show for all of the pets your groom! I wish my dog was as calm as this retriever in the shower!
As you said Oakley is also a therapy dog my heart melted. He is such a sweet boy! The typical Retriever smile in his face! 😊
He still has this sort of teddybear face, even at 5 🤗
Golden retrievers are just like that. They're big squishy goofy bundles of love, and this Good Boy is the _golden_ (heh) standard!
What a distinguished gentleman!!!
Oakley is beautiful! His coat looks very soft (and truly golden).
He seems like a calm dog, no wonder he is a pet therapist. I would be so happy to play with him.
Oakley knew exactly how to pose himself as you groomed him -- good sign that he's had many grooms so far and knows exactly what to do! Encore!
I started getting my golden accustomed to grooming at 10 weeks old and now (at 3) he's just as happy about it as this good boy - to the extent that he jumps up on the grooming table without being asked. He just loves the attention so much! Goldens are such sweet and patient animals
He is just happy to be here. A wholesome spirit. He is loving and a very good boi
2:32 he is sooo patient🥰
He looks so happy. I hope he’s living the best life. May he live long and happy.
Oakley is a wonderful ambassador for his breed. 😊
What an absolute sweet heart this little boy is!
…with hearts as golden as their fur! What a sweetie pie 🥰❤️
I am so glad that you mentioned the true nature of showing dogs. I was in a breed club and most of the dogs were also loved as pets, spoiled etc. If you work with dogs early, they will enjoy grooming. I had one that would walk into my stall shower, turn around and look at me when he wanted a bath! Several owners also were working in getting companion dog degrees and for me, a lure coursing degree as well. Yes, it is an expensive hobby.
💯👍
You need to listen to what she said lol said they retire with their family OR a new loving home once they are done being shown. Aka given away when no longer useful.
@@Kandy559 What the hell do you have against a dog living in a loving home. You sicko.
I don't know if it's because of his fur, but this boy looks really buff.
Even with only moderate exercise, goldens are built like brick shithouses, male goldens in particular 😃 They're quite strong dogs!
What a good boy! so quiet and well behaved.
My favorite part is when you shape the paws at the end. Love to you and Oakley. ❤
The goodest of the good boys.... He looks so calm and chill, like sitting on your porch watching the leaves fall an autumn afternoon
Had a golden as a kid. She was so funny, gentle, and clever. I'm 46 now and still miss her, this is coming from an ex army construction worker.
Cleaver is a knife. So Oakley is a knife? That’s sad.
@@jameswent48 weirdest internet comment today bud.
I absolutely love your channel . It has nurtured my grooming of my adopted dog.
Your commentary is both informing and funny
He is gorgeous, such a sweet and loving face 💛
I never had experience with GRs until recently when i was asked by a colleague to house/dog sit while she was in Europe with her husband for two months. I had no experience doing either task. What they had lined up had fallen through so i jumped in to help a friend. Where they live is a cozy residential area about an hours drive from me, close to the Ottawa River...was once considered cottage country. Lots of nice places to walk. Anyway, I met Nikki, female GR, once very briefly before coming and I was worried that I wouldn't do a good job by her. She didn't know me but I took her darling face in my hands and promised her I would take care of her. I remember when she first smiled at me. I didn't know they smile like that and right into your eyes. I worked from home at the time so I transferred my "office" there and so I wasn't commuting. Instead early in the morning and after work, we walked together. But then those walks turned into ventures and we went everywhere. We would drive on weekends and go to places to explore and just hang out. I didnt go anywhere without her. She likes carrots and broccoli so I always had fresh chopped veggies for her. I know it sounds weird but I feel like we became fast friends and buddies. I miss her and sometimes I get teary when I think about her like right now.
This is really calming to watch, especially compared to the full groom session of the little angry monster.
He is loving that groom! Oakley is a beauty.
Oh, how this makes me miss my childhood golden. He was mostly my job to train, groom, and bathe. He was just such a good boy for everything we did together - except when it came to water. When I'd take him to run free in the woods across the street from my house, he'd go into the creek and was sometimes almost impossible to get out. He also took himself for many swims in our pool, whether there were any humans ther, or just by himself on a hot day. When it was time for a bath, I'd tell him to jump up into our laundry room tubs - front feet in one tub, back feet in the other. He loved it!
Oakley embracing his inner Zen during the blow dry! What a good boy!😇
Oakley is definitely a very obedient dog which I have to give credit to his owners for training him to be a very well behaved dog to his owners and other people.
Most of it comes natural to a Goldie.
What a beautiful boy!
Golden retrievers are like teddy bears, theyre so full of love... he looks so soft and he behaves so well, doesn't even try to take back his paw even though dogs generally like having all their paws on the ground.. what a good boy
Such a good golden boi ❤
They are beautiful dogs, very affectionate and loyal. The best, we had two, mother and daughter, mother died of cancer at 10 years old, she gave us all her unconditional love. Her daughter is still with us and she is 12 years old.
He's such a majestic floof!
That smile when he walked in the door!
What a sweetie!!!!! 😍
Sweet Oakley, thank you and your breed brothers and sisters for being such kind and supportive dogs for those suffering stress.
She obviously loves animals and works so hard.
What a pleasure to watch a dog be well behaved during his bath time.
Look at his fur blowing in the wind at the end! Loved this 🥰
Oakley's personality is golden too
Wow, what a gorgeous Golden Boy!
I’ve seen him shown and he is magnificent. ❤
Golden Retrievers are the kindest and sweetest doggies ever. Every Golden that i have met has been very kind to me, never too overwhelming or nippy. They are the number one dog.
My heart dog was a golden. He passed away in 2015. I am so looking forward to my new baby coming to me this summer. Bestest dogs ever!
Definitely, they broke them mould with goldies 💕
What a wonderful boy!
It's fascinating to me to think that transitioning retired show dogs into companion roles makes a ton of sense. It seems like such a natural path of life for them as it encourages usefulness and the understanding that they are still loved and needed. This should be encouraged!
Show dogs are pets during the week so there really isn't a transition. I show both my aussies and Flambo was a top 15 aussie last year we show maybe once a month and other than that it's adventures and normal dog life (more traveling probably) and just more baths :P
I need 50 of Oakley. He’s the sweetest “no thoughts” baby ❤
Enjoyed watching Oakley being so calm during the grooming
Oakley’s demeanour sure is like a heart of gold… ❤
Oakley be like,
"Hey Huskies, this is how you do a grooming without being an insane drama queen," while having the biggest grin ever on his face :P
Huskies are always neurotic, bad temperaments.
