I always crack up when dogs wear the “happy hoodie”. I just think they look anything BUT happy. Hahahaha!
I always have to skip past that part. They look so miserable. And that plastic bubble thing makes ME freak out!
They look like a disgruntled grandma in a kerchief 😂
@@llchapman1234 Hahahahaha!
Ya know, with all the grooming experiences this woman has, she KNOWS what works and why. I’m gonna follow the directions of a *true professional groomer.* I wasn’t happy getting shots in the rear end as a Little with what felt like a rusty nail gun-but they WORKED, despite the reality they hurt like hell. Groom on, Ms. Jessica!
@@Yesica1993Looks like a greyhound 😊
Benson was such a good boy he wouldn't even shake properly out of politeness. What a handsome sweetheart.
I am tempted to think that he actually knows (to some extent) that shaking fully isn't helpful in the moment but he will get to do it later. So many times you could hear him half-shake but he stopped himself within a second or two!
😂😅@@unnamedplayer7
I think Benson might be one of the most polite, well mannered dogs I've seen Vanessa groom.
When I was at the vet, a guy in the waiting room had a huge white german shepherd. The dog climbed on the guys lap and whined! I know the poor dog was nervous- but it was the cutest thing I'd ever seen.
Same with our Lab/Neufie.
swiss shepherd, her curiosity was always bigger than the fear so was happy to visit the vet 🙂
I had a compleet black German shepherd her name was Eri she broke a toe and due her allergies the vet was worried but didn’t think it would turn strange. I gave her a booth for walking on wet underground outside but I called him to say her paw had a bad smell, turned out her fur could be rubbed of, her nail bed and paw soles came loose! But he couldn’t treat her without her wanting to run of, he needed to take a blood sample too because he suspected a resistance against medication two vets, the assistent, me holding her head and even the cleaning lady where holding her down he struggled so bad, she had to be sedated every time for changing her bandages. And that was a lot one time she had a bad reaction and I asked to not put her to far away. It turned out she was a Tasmanian devil in disguise. He said look you’re a nurse aid, try it at home but take pictures every time so I can track it and send them every day. That ment risking a bite but she didn’t do it. But would loved to bite the vet his finger off I’m sure she didn’t like him the last vet she was more calm with he talked a lot to her. And kept her on the floor if possible.
He's an absolute beaut'! 😍
mine is all "bark and hide" type of dog
Now that is a well bred, smart and confident dog being groomed. He is gorgeous.❤️
My sister had a white shepherd and I had a black lab. They were besties and we went everywhere together. Fur in both houses and cars was a lively shade of grey.
😂
How lovely. I bet you miss those days.
Okay, I'm glad you didn't breed them, but hypothetically, can you IMAGINE how cute those babies would be??
That's so cute!😂
Lively Shade of Grey sounds like an epic late 60's jam
It was nice to watch a calm dog getting the works. Very quiet, no nipping, no jumping, no jittering, no running, no climbing, no scratching, no whining, no howling, no growling and no crying.
Just a siple and peaceful day at the salon is great!
That is one incredibly patient dog
White shepherd in a nutshell.
And very well trained from the beginning. He enjoyed everything except the blow-dry, looked like he was asking "Oh, please, am I done now ?"
And handsome!
Makes you feel proud just watching him! Unlike those whiners in the other videos 🙄
@@Noora2299 We're talking about a dog here, right?
Oh what a gorgeous creature this boy is! He reminds me of a therapy dog we encountered in the hospital when our son had cancer. That dog was all white and named Spirit. It was truly a comfort to see him in the hospital when our hearts were sad.
Therapy dogs are amazing. ❤
therapy dogs are amazing ! how is your son now ? 💗
@@dusty-zr4o3 Sadly we lost him to the cancer, but thank you for asking. It shows you have a kind heart.
Benson is a happy doggo. You can see it in his smiling eyes.
What a lovely looking dog and well behaved.
Confident and well socialized
yep, he’s definitely a pure bread good boy
Broke my heart watching this video. My girl passed a few years ago. She was a white Shepard too. Beautiful girl, beautiful temperament. Very smart and compassionate with me and other pets as well. We lived on the 2nd floor of our apartment and I had an elderly dachshund. He couldn’t go down the stairs, I had to carry him. She would take a couple of steps and wait for me to get to her. She would do that til we made down. She would do the same going up. We loved her very much. We miss her terribly
I'm so sorry she's gone. I know what losing a pet feels like for me. One thing though, She had the best life EVER with YOU!❤❤❤
I have had GSDs for over 50 years!
I have rescued, fostered, foster failed ... you get the idea.
I usually have anywhere between 3 and a dozen at any one time.
I have had all colors other than white, but I have a few friends
who have white GSDs.
Mine have ranged from short haired to super long haired.
You know when folks say they have "dust bunnies"?
I tell folks I have "dust hippopotami"!
I sweep at least twice a day, every single day!
No carpet in my house!
The de shedding shampoo and conditioner are So Helpful!
I love my GSDs and cannot imaging life without them!
Rescues are the best. It takes a LONG time for some to trust Humans, though.
LOL GSD fan here too. Doesn't matter what color they are, shedding fur is noticeable everywhere 😊
Thank you for this. I keep wondering if I’m the only one seeing hair every where every day and Im like , how do other people live with this really? Like what tips tricks etc.
I had her groomed and deshedded once and on day two, shedding was already a thing.
I JUST CANT BELIEVE SINCE I LOST MY BLACK GSD I DONT HAVE TO BRUSH MY FLOOR ANY LONGER MULTIPLE TIME A DAY
WOULD RATHER BRUSH THE FLOOR IF I COULD HAVE MY GSD BACK
MARGARET LYNCH SOUTHERN IRELAND
@@margaret8056
Growinf up,our neghbour had a black GSD.
Once I moved out of my parents house,
my vet had a client who had black GSDs and wanted to breed them once -
but only if there were enough interested folks to adopt them.
Of course, I did!
I chose the biggest one, a long hair girl.
The runt of the litter chose me.
So ... of course ... I ended up with 2 black GSDs.
My Grandmother was English and my Grandfather was a Scotsman.
Since the dogs were registered AKC, I had to give each a "proper name".
I called the big girl Dame Heather.
The runt I named Lady Margaret (Maggie for short).
They lived to be 18 years old, not a white hair on either!
They died within a week of each other.
I have had so many since, but those two are still on my top 5 list
of my favourites!
That dog has a more intelligent expression on its face than most people you meet. And what a sweetheart.
😂😂😂
His face looks like a seal in the happy hoodie, soooooo cute!!
dogs and seals are related!
@@bearsnevergiveupReally? 😂
@@antoinettenyuurnibe3302Dogs and seals are both assigned to the biological classification Caniformia and are closely genetically related :)
@@bearsnevergiveupI bet you would know since your picture is a seal!
I think he looks like a nun😅
What an absolute dream dog. Perfectly calm. Completely accepting of the groom. 12:20: He seems genuinely contemplative about the hoody and what happens next. This dog is a vibe. 100% chill. Even for nails, he flinched as if he didn't like the sound. Real gem of a pet.
Benson was one of the most well behaved and patient dogs I have seen. Such an absolute sweetheart.
What a lovely and well behaved dog. The owners trained him well.
Yes, training makes all the difference. My terrier was unprovoked attacked by a white shepherd who ran a hundred metres to attack while the owner stood by a watched.😟my dog survived by was lucky just missed his eye and jugular!
Plus it’s clear this dog was bred by good breeders as well. While good training CAN overcome the vast majority of behavior issues caused by bad breeding it’s still typically noticeable in stressful or uncomfortable situations like at the groomers…especially the first groom at/by a new groomer. And this dog showed ZERO signs of any behavior issues that have been addressed thru training…thus was almost certainly well bred! Which just sets them up for success from the start behaviorally & of course massively affects their health. Making SURE the German Shepard you purchase comes from a really good breeder is VERY important! As German Shepards are sadly a breed which have become FREQUENTLY poorly & unethically bred in the US causing often severe behavior & health issues…similar to labs, golden retrievers, Rottweilers, boxers, all smooshed faced breeds & several other breeds that are or were very popular.
*OF COURSE* even poorly & unethically bred dogs can be fantastic pets when rescued or if you mistakenly, unknowingly due to ignorance of the issue, were tricked by a bad breeder into purchasing a poorly bred dog! It often(not always)requires more work training & ends up typically requiring more vet care.
I had a white Shepard, she would shed so bad we used to vacuum her. She loved it.
They are very beautiful, but I don't know how people can live like that.
@@Yesica1993? What do you mean how people live like that? Our family dog when I was born, was a shepherd/husky cross. I remember as a kid, brushing her and pulling out fistfuls of fur every day during shedding season. She also loved being vacuumed. ❤ We vacuumed the whole house (shag carpet in every room) once a week and about half an hour before having someone over, lol. We had to dry her off with a towel every time she came in after being out in the rain. It’s just a part of life with a dog-you don’t think twice about it. You just do it, because they aren’t self-cleaning like cats. If you want to carry your dog in your purse or have them sit at the dinner table (yuck) then you need a hairless chihuahua or something, lol.
@@Snookscatcats shed, too! 😂❤
@@Snookscat I just mean exactly what I said. If people want to live in that mess, that's their choice.
I got the Oneisall vacuum pet brush. It works great and is quiet. I learned about it from a petfluencer. I’ve only bought 2 things from influencers: the equigroomer and this. I’m satisfied with both.
These videos are addictive, that's what they are.
They can't last long enough for me.
They are soothing, and you have a nice voice to listen to.
so fluffy!! ive never seen such a beautiful german shepherd :0
It’s a Swiss shepherd
@@kewoshk didn't she say it's a white german shepherd, though?
Benson is such a gentleman! He even cancels his shake for you, and that face.... omg he has the sweetest face.
💯💯💯
He looks just like my white shepherd Tizan. I just absolutely love white shepherds. They are so stinking smart and absolutely gorgeous ❤😊
There’s nothing like a confident animal. What a beautiful good boy.
Such a good dog during the entirety of the grooming. Love this very sweet sweet doggy
My favorite part is seeing the parents' reactions when they pick up their children back, well brushed and cleaned.
Benson reminds me so much of my Shepard/ samoyed mix Kody, he was a fur machine and so tolerant of his grooming. He had skin allergies, so keeping him clean was a must. I think he just loved the attention
What is it with white dogs and allergies? Across breeds and sizes.
What a lovely boy. A credit to his owners & his breed 👏🏼
I love my White Swiss shepard! She is something else! She does get vocal when she feels she needs to! She's so smart it's ridiculous!😂😂😂People think she's a white wolf. She's so stunning I love her so much!
1:02 directly into my soul
Thought the same
We've got one of these in our neighborhood. She's an absolutely stunning dog, kind, loyal and alert with strangers. Benson here is an adorable, well-behaved pooch! 😊
This dog is like an angel in german shepherd shape! 😍 He’s so patient & well behave. He looks like he enjoys the bath & almost likes the dryer.
What a well-behaved and beautiful Doggo! I always learn so much when you’re grooming. I learned about the breeds and who should get certain breeds and who shouldn’t! I had no idea. Thank you for all you do Vanessa.
He looks like one of those “just happy to be here” types. Good on you, Benson. We need more of you, whether dog or person.❤
That's got to be the most beautiful, goodest,fluffiest,white cloud ,I mean white doggo ever !!❤❤
I had my WGS Sebastian for 13 glorious years. I've known many dogs, and hands down, Sebastian was the greatest dog I've ever known. I'm not just being biased because he was my dog, but his personality was unmatched. He was funny, gentle, caring, got along with humans and animals, and was up for anything. It's been 20 years since he passed and I still cry I miss him so much. If you have a chance to have a WGS, go for it! You won't regret it.
I was hesitant to even watch this video. It had been almost 15 years since I lost the last of my heart breed (breeder, owner, handler). My niece's husband purchased a white GSD and I knew as soon I heard that it was not going to work. I asked myself if (and when) the time came that they would need to re-home him, did I really want to have another dog and have to experience the heartbreak that goes with losing one.....thought I would because they had 2 children and knew they would be heartbroken, so they could at least visit him. Sure enough the call came when he was 6 months old, and I said yes. I had him until he was 10 years old, lost him to hemangiosarcoma of the spleen. I still have his bowls out, talk to him every day, left his boxes full of toys, have left his boogers on the windows in the den--he was very intimidating (he weighed 102 lbs.) when he stood on his hind legs barking at strangers, have one of his favorite treats by one of his photos. and each night I sleep with one of his Lambchops. I have had to stop typing this several times because I cannot see through the tears. I still find his hair in places around the house--he loved being vacuumed, and I even used the leaf blower on him outside. He had a temperament like Benson.....My dog's name was Klondike, I lost him on June 26, 2022, and I am still lost without him.
What a gorgeous beautiful boy!! And so well behaved for the groomer 🐾🥰
My daughter got a white shepherd for her anxiety. She ended up getting one who had anxiety of his own, LOL. But he is the sweetest, smartest and loving dog. He is much better now and has the funniest personality. We had a white dog and dark wood floors. I understand your pain!
We had A Swiss Shepherd and Germand Shepherd mix and he was the most pretty good boy that ever lived. I miss him a lot. :)
What was his colouring? Or should I say how? Because I pictured him as spotted and I’m pretty sure that’s wrong 😅
Bet he was beautiful!
❤🥹❤️🙂
@@gellawella He looked like a German Shepherd, he had long hair, but his face was not dark like a regular German Shepherd, it was cappucino colour, and he also had a fluffy cappucino coloured butt. :) So overall he was just like a lighter version of a German Shepherd.
@@splat496 Oh that sounds beautiful!! It is sad they don’t live longer 🧡
@@gellawellaHe lived for 17 years, so we were blessed to have him for a long time at least! :)
What a gorgeous dog! His white fur was gleaming after his groom. Such an angel, too. I would love to be there to love on him. So sweet!
What a cute dog. 😍
I did'n know there were white German Shepherds. And since I'm from Germany I think I should have.
Well, you learn something new every day. 😃
Man kennt sie bei uns auch als Schweizer Schäferhunde
There are a number coat colors, but some are not considered "proper" in the Kennel Clubs:
All black
All white
Sable
Blue
Liver
There are more, and they're all beautiful. This is the first I've heard of temperament differences being tied to any coat color.
@@R.M.MacFruseems strange bit he sure proved it!😊
According to my deceased father in law (was German) in Germany they terminated any German shepherds that were not the classic color. That was many, many years ago.
@@filtersplz9319 According to my mother, that was also true in the AKC through at least the 1970's, iirc.
Hands down he is my favorite groom you’ve done. He was soooo incredibly sweet, patient. Look at you/tipped his head to you when he wanted affection. Genuinely such a well behaved good mannered dog. His owner has clearly done such an amazing job loving him, and training him. I just wanna give him and big O hug 🥹😍 if the owners of Benson see this I love your dog so much! Hope to see more grooms of him! He would be such a wonderful therapy dog that visits kids in the hospital🤍
What a good boy “client”, what a compassionate groomer!
Benson has done a fantastic job for his 1st grooming session. I have to give his owners credit for training Benson to be very well-behaved.
I thought she said this wasn't his first groom? Or maybe it's his first *professional* groom.
This isn't his first rodeo
He is absolutely gorgeous! We had a White Shepherd so much like him. The greatest thing on four feet if you didn't mind living in a snow storm and with the loudest bark you could ever imagine.
Gosh it is so rare to see a real well behaved, laid back dog! I’m in love! Brilliant job Vanessa. 🤗🇦🇺
I saw one of these. Pure white and had these striking deep blue eyes. He was gorgeous.
Swiss shepherds only have brown eyes; what you saw could've been a mix or a husky
@@HuskyEarth yeah it's possible.
Benson is SUCH a sweetheart! ❤ I don't think I have ever seen a better trained, well socialized dog in these videos.
‼️‼️ Vanessa!!!! I used your Fluff-Off shampoo for my short haired kitty, followed by towel dry, equigroomer, and slicker brush. HOLY. COW. It was like a furnado in our bathroom. I had no idea he had so much fur needing to come off. 😂😂
Benson is an absolutely prefect boy, his pawrents must be very proud 💖
Such soulful eyes, Vanessa. And the earlier comment about the not-so-happy look in the Happy Hoodie is just too funny. I am so glad you are there to brighten my day!
He is a 10 out of 10. Beautiful, super well behaved. And those soft trusting eyes.
Just a good boy..so freaking cute
Any dog in a happy hoodie is seriously the most freaking adorable thing I've ever seen! :)
Yeah, they look at you and go “this is so undignified.” Cats on the other hand look like they are plotting evil revenge.
What a well behaved and stunning boy, he deserves all the treats ❤
What a nice gentle dog. He was such a good boy! I liked him giving you a nose bump every minute or so. It was like HE was given you gentle affirmation for taking good care of him!
Our dog Mika is a crossbred Retriever Canaan and she looks just the same, apart from her ears.
She is a beauty too. We take her to a groomer every 6 weeks and she loves it.
Now that is a sweetheart Boy, so gentile and patient.
I got my Swiss Shepherd, Sven, 4 years ago, because I also read up about them and their temperaments. Being kind of on the "opposite spectrum" of German shepherds. I have bad anxiety, so I wanted him for emotional support. I took a lot of time researching breeds before I decided. We did puppy school, he was with me almost all the time, I was a teacher, so he came to school with me. Also went to my so's office, dog friendly. So plenty of human and animal socialization. I think I passed on my anxiety to him though unfortunately. He is an amazingly loving and smart velcro dog. Great with kids and all other animals. But he doesn't like new people and he is reactive. I saw dog behaviourists and everything, but he is who he is. He has 100% German Shepherd nature. I still love him to death, but he is so different to all other Swiss shepherds that I've met or see online. So now we are anxious together 😭 He also needs to be sedated to see a vet, gets aggressive. Having a reactive dog is so hard, because he is the most loving, caring, tolerant creature at home. As soon as we step out, different dog. Gets very protective
Benson is a happy dog so well behaved. I love it when he had the happy hoodie on , makes me chuckle. He is so white,excellent groom.♥️🐾🌟
A company mercial for " Spa day isn't so bad boys & girls...you feel grand!"💕💕
During the drying I could have sworn I heard sleigh bells and Christmas music!🌬️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️ That’s A LOT of fur!!! He’s absolutely gorgeous!
Benson is a very handsome and goodest boy. He definitely loved having his hind quarters scratched.
He's a beautiful dog. So patient. Such intelligent eyes.
Beautiful groom of an incredibly beautiful dog! I've often wondered why you don't have someone to do the clean up, or at least some help with it. You certainly deserve it!
0:07 Is it his second rodeo?
We need to know how many rodeos he’s been to
Yee Haw!! 🤠
I never seen a white German Shepherd 😯so beautiful
It’s a Swiss Shepherd
@@MarianneBjelke-og6xrYes, since 2011 that's the official name. The ancestors were simply GSD with white coats, later bread in the USA and Canada, then reimported to Europe.
Me either he is so good, gentle and handsome bless him ❤
@@fabiansaah6482 there are white german shepherds and swiss shepherds
They're different things
Nowadays at least
I can't help but agree with different coat types for dogs even within the same breed. I had twin sisters, labrador stafford mix... they both needed different brushes even though they were twin sisters. One would shed all year long, the other seemed to just lose 90% of her hair twice a year. It was always funny to me that even though they looked similar to everyone who saw them, their hair care routine was so vastly different from one another.
Such a beautiful and patient dog
That’s a beautiful dog! And so well behaved. He did everything you asked him to do.
He's the best white shepherd EVER! The amount of hair that came out of him was a furnatue!
Benson is quite possibly the bestest boy I have seen on this channel. I am new, but I feel like Benson is one of the top 5 sweetest pets that you have groomed.❤ So chill and unbothered.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ I can't deal with how very cute Benson is
Edit: please bring back the bandana and the pet of the day if you can, those were always adorable too
What a sweet, cooperative, gentle dog.
What a great dog, so tolerant of everything. I have never seen one so totally unbothered by having water sprayed in his face! Really enjoyed watching. 🤍
Lots of dogs love water. And the feeling of a shower/spray. That just isn't as engaging as dogs that are not enjoying the process.
My dog's first dog friend was a White German Shepherd. She was a very relaxed and sweet girl.
Such a georgous, well behaved Shepard. ❤
He is such a good, beautiful boy! Thank you for highlighting the positive qualities of white German Shepherds.
It is unbearably sad to remember that in the past breeders of German Shepherds for show used to drown white puppies.
Humans can be heartbreakingly cruel.
Given that horrible history, it is especially wonderful to see this gorgeous, sweet, intelligent boy thrive.
He is obviously well cared for and loved.
WHY OH WHY did you feel the need to bring up such heartbreaking news?! WHY!? NOT NECESSARY!!!🤨
It was heartbreaking, yes.
All the more reason to be grateful to anyone who shows appreciation for these wonderful dogs.
All the more reason to cherish them.
It wasn't that long ago that it happened.
When history is suppressed, censored and hidden it repeats.
This is why I chose to include it in my comment even though I am an ultra-sensitive person who has always had German Shepherds in my life and
it breaks my heart that anyone could possibly do such a horrible thing.
You didn't have to comment.
Your comment is disturbing.
You could have just scrolled by
and not have drawn attention to it.
Just a side note, the White Swiss Shepherd is a separate breed and not to be confused with a white German Shepherd. They have different temperaments and a slightly different look, you should avoid anyone breeding white German shepherds because it's an out of standard colour for the breed and is often paired with really poor temperament and structure. However there are ethical White Swiss Shepherd breeders who focus on producing healthy stable dogs
I have a white Swiss Shepherd. They do look different to GSDs. The most lovely dog now but was a bit skittish when she was younger.
AKC website says white is a standard color.
@@ferretyluv I live in Canada and the CKC does not allow White in the GSD standard. I also don’t know of any ethical GSD breeders in the US who breed the white colour because of the negative associations with it
The Swiss shepherd is not a separate breed genetically, it is only because the white coloration of the German Shepherd was not accepted in the GSD breed standard. All white GSD's were accepted as Swiss Shepherds. Genetically they are the same as regular German Shepherds. Now after years of breeding, Swiss Shepherds can possibly have their own unique characteristics, but for the most part they are just German Shepherds.
@@3rgoproxxy both the UKC and FCI have recognized the White Swiss Shepherd as a separate breed, because as you said they have been bred for years now. They may share similar characteristics and traits but they are now separate from the GSD breed
I love his ears! He has such a funny little habit of folding the left one back!
Beautiful pup! My grandfather had a white German Shepherd, named Vespa (my grandparents were born in Sicily).
Wow what a patient dog! ❤ props to the owner and Vanessa he looks like the snow king. Absolutely beautiful ❤
Precious!! Beautiful too!💙💙💙💙💙💙
What a sweet, well mannered, beautiful dog! ❤️
That doggo is absolutely beautiful
Loved the tanned tips of his ears. So beautiful!
I own a white shepherd and she sheds all year . I love her so much she is great with kids and dogs but strangers beware if she don’t know you she will not let you in the house 19:10
I thought my rescue was just not socialized enough! I know that is part of it too but there’s small comfort in knowing I’m not alone
I never knew white German Shepherds existed. Benson is GORGEOUS. And what a sweet gentleman he is! ♥
What a majestic boy! ❤
Our white Shepherd, Huxley, is seriously the best family dog. Just as chill as Benson, and sheds SOOO much too
he looks so happy and glad to be washed.
He is so HANDSOME! What a good boy!
Benson is a gorgeous shepherd. He reminds me of my favorite direwolf on Game of Thrones, Ghost 🐺🤍
In the early 1970s I adopted a beautiful female White Shepherd pup whom I named Vajra (she was originally named Sasha) who was a rescued dog; she had almost died at the age of 6-8 months from awful neglect. After a couple of months at a vet’s, she needed a forever home and I was the lucky one! She lived to the ripe old age of 17 (or 18; we were never 100% sure of her birthdate). Now, observing this dog, his temperament and expressions, how patient he is and even how much he enjoys the attention, reminds me so much of Vajra it’s uncanny. She was such an intelligent, regal, happy dog for all of her years. Anywhere I took her she was welcome; my vet even wanted to keep her because the couple of times she had to stay overnight, they told me she was going from cage to cage, comforting all the other nervous dogs.
Back in the 70s and 80s, dog groomers weren’t really a thing, but every summer she would swim in a lake each day for several hours, and although she would shed a lot, she managed to keep quite clean. (I don’t really recall having to bathe her more than a few times when she was still very young and got skunked or would roll in something stinky!) The swimming had a very good effect on her hip dysplasia, delaying its effects until she was 14 or 15.
I look in this dog’s face, see his intelligence and good nature, how he’s always smiling and cooperating, confident and not a bit nervous, he knows whatever’s being done to him is for his benefit and goes with it; just like Vajra always behaved. She even had the same bit of cinnamon color at the tips of her ears and tail, and as she got older, a faint diamond shape began to appear along her spine. Just watching this Benson(?) makes me miss my Vajra so much it’s a bit overwhelming. She died peacefully, at home in 1990, aged approximately 18 years. I wish I could show you photos, you’d think it was the same dog! I had always hoped to get another White Shepherd, but I had to live in NYC for a couple decades and just couldn’t see having a dog like that while living there. Now I’m almost 70 and I wish I had the companionship of a dog like this; it would totally change the quality of my life.
Thanks for this episode, it brings back some very fine memories…
What a sweet boy ❤
After watching a sequence of dogs with behavioral issues, this was a treat! So well behaved!! ♥️ What a sweety
He's so fluffy! And he's got a Nephew Nook ear!
If you know,you know,,,lol
Benson is such a handsome pupper. So regal in the way he stands there especially after you groomed him. Such a well behaved and good natured boy. Love GSDs. Another fantastic job Vanessa👌🏾💐
Thats one really good doggo who appreciates grooming efforts.
Whenever she's washing a dog's face, they look like a cute puppy 😊😊❤❤
I just spent a few days with my sister and her current (he's her 3rd) White German Shepherd. Maverick is 5 months old and such a sweetheart! So smart!!
He is such a beauty and a very good boy for you
The fake shake drill😂😂😂😂😂😂
Gorgeous adorable dog Benson!!!😍😍😍😍 Great grooming once again Vanessa!!! And beautiful white coat!!!✨✨
