Ahhh! Thank you guys for saying such beautiful things about our baby, Gertrude. She is the sweetest girl. Extra info, she had a joint incongruity as her growth plate closed early, so she was quite lame by 6months. We had an osteotomy (cut her bone in half) so the end of the bone could fit into the joint, then the bone back fills in. She is doing quite well, just a little limp sometimes. She is mummy’s $10,000 dog. Thank you again to Vanessa and all of your lovely comments. ❤❤❤
Wow, the cash does show how important Gertude is! I would have sold My house if it would have made My girl O.K. Sadly, sometimes things can't be fixed.
She's a great tap dancer!
🥰🥰🥰
Ah, good for you to take care of such a good, and well named pup.
Sadly, I also had a multi-thousand dollar dog, but it was not at the beginning of my sweet Niko’s journey, but at the end! No regrets. We did well until the last day…
She's a darling
Funny that Gertrude seemed to find the perfume the most horrible part of that experience. She's a cutie.
I noticed that too. She was really giving a side eye to the spray bottle! LOL 😬
It doesn’t surprise me, when you consider how incredibly sensitive a dogs nose is, and how much they use it for information about their surroundings. I’ve noticed many of the dogs react. Probably would equate to our being dunked in a vat of very strong perfume suddenly!
ofc!! she took time to give herself her own sent at the very beginning w her glands smh (this is a joke)
Gertrude will no doubt go roll in the nearest sheep or cow dung and feel herself again soon.
The spray noise sounds like a snake hissing, it makes most dogs jumpy
Please always show them running in the yard! That's my favorite part. 😁
And adding a bit of destruction as well 😄
Seconded!
Could be a rainy muddy day too, not going to do that after a clean
I love that part too!
Mine too. 😉👍👍
For those who don't know, expressing anal glands is what she meant. They can become impacted and uncomfortable for the dog. (I think cats too). You want to have them expressed because if you don't, it will build up and it can, more or less, explode on you. It is smelly and is best done by a vet or groomer.
thanks because that title was very off-putting
And it's good to ask the groomer how the expression went! We had 3 shelties who all had different needs. One was such an...overproducer...we had to do it ourselves about once a week, the other two could wait until their 4-6 WK appointments and it hardly smelled at all.
We've learned that if our pup starts booty-scooting across the floor, it's time to take her in.
If you see a dog rubbing their butt on the carpet, that's them trying to do it themselves.
My Uncle used to scoot at Thanksgiving every year.
What a beautiful Australian Shepherd!
love your channel
so cool to see you commenting here :D
I agree! Finally an Australian Shepherd that isn’t merle… Hopefully it will become a trend 🤞❤️
Yes agreed ! I actually own one! But mines a blue Merle! Her name is Paisley ! ( love ur channel!)
Hey! I love your channel. You made me want a husky puppy! They are adorable but my mother wont let me get one. I watch your channel to make me feel like i have a husky.
I love how the happy hoodie always make the dogs look like olden time ladies still waiting for their husbands to come back from war
they all look like little Russian ladies I love it lol
Aussie dog butts are called "Bloomers" in my house. We've had three Aussie dogs and they are adorable and way too smart lol
Same can be said about Labradors or Golden retrievers.
@in desperate need of a scotch And rather happy?
@in desperate need of a scotch Good to hear.

@@kiahmadison8541 👍
She's so cute!!! I love Australian Shepherds but I'd never seen a black one! She looks a lot like a German Shepherd, so adorable
My aussie looks exactly like Gertrude, so i'm happy to see the *very* rare representation.
She looks like a black tri Aussie!
Yeah they’re adorable. My boy is a black tri. He’s mostly black but he has white strip on his head/mouth, a patch on his neck, front paws, and his chest.
Gertrude also has white on her chest/neck but it blends in a lot with her brown/black
The head tilts at the end made her look even more like a GSD.
My Aussie also looked like Gertrude only mine was a male. That brings back fond memories. He did not have a tail so when he was happy, he wiggled his butt!
"If you don't know what 'expressing the glands' are, you don't wanna know!" 🤣🤣 Vanessa keeping it real! 👍
I've seen enough internet to know when not to look something up.
It’s messy and it smells
I hated expressing them. I could never seem to get them….maybe I was subliminally screwing it up so someone else would have to help me 😂
@@theconverted5423 If they're really impacted or blocked it can be hard to get them started. Warm soapy water is a good way to clear anything blocking the ducts. It's nasty and unpleasant but if they're making your dog uncomfortable, they need to be done, and they need to be done more often than how often you'd take your dog to the groomer.
You don't want your dog doing that butt scooting thing trying to express the glands themselves.
@@KenS1267 really it comes down to getting your dog on a diet that works for their digestive system (not necessarily expensive nor gimmicky, just whatever actually works). You really shouldn't need to express their glands at all.
I started tipping my dog's groomer more when I found out what "expressing his glands" meant.
Gertrude is such a rare beauty, especially as you are making it rain with fine undercoat all over her face. I loved the head tilt near the end. I think she was trying to be sure you were just making her smell good with chai latte☕️ and were not going to repeat the experience of expressing her glands.
I saw the title and was like, Ummmm...
Gertrude is an amazing tap dancer
💀 that title omg
I love her! She looks like a longer-haired version of my Sally, who just passed away. Same colouring and markings on the fur and mannerisms (tap dancing, sensitive dainty paws). We were told she was shepherd/border collie mix, but who knows? This channel rules.
I'm sorry for your loss ❤ Sally sounds like a wonderful dog
I’m sorry your sweet girl, Sally just passed away. It’s so heartbreaking to lose our fur babies. ❤️
Sorry for your loss 😢
I'm so sorry for your loss...sending you 💙
Sorry For Your Loss
Sally is my nickname
She's adorable! The dogs' expressions when they walk in for the first time is so cute. They're probably thinking "Wonder where am I going?" 🐾🐩
Gertrude is really cute but the title tho 😭
HONESTLY
Keeping it real.
Well that's a title for sure
Gertrude was done before you even started! Gland expression is one of those things, that as much as we don't enjoy the process (or the smell), usually it does help the dog feel better in the long run! [Better for your carpet at home, too!!]
Cuz they don't butt-rub as much.
As a fellow curious person, what is gland expression?
@@bonbon_1729 From the American Kennel Club website: "Dogs have two small oval-shaped sacs on either side of the anus. The purpose of the glands is to produce a fluid with a strong odor (very pungent and fishy smell) unique to each dog. It’s believed that the expression of a small amount of this fluid marks territory. Most dogs can also involuntarily express their anal sacks when they are fearful or become stressed". Manually expressing these glands means squeezing them with your fingers to release the fluid in the sacs. There are a couple reasons why you'd do this, some medical; I think for some dogs you have to do it regularly, while for others never
@@bonbon_1729 I googled it and sat with a frown the whole time reading about it XD
@@bonbon_1729 whatever you do, DO NOT look it up on RUclips. Just the memory.. 😖😖😖😖😖
Gertrude is lovely. She knows what she wants, too. Gittin' outa here! Nice groom as always, Vanessa. Woof! 🐶❣
Gertrude's face! So sweet. I also loved the little unimpressed snuffle when her feet were being groomed.
This Aussie is more realistic then the last one lol naughty and little manic ☺️
My Aussie passed away yesterday and I can’t stop crying so prayers are needed
I’m sorry for your loss.
Ahhh my namesake! Lots of love from one gorgeous Gertrude to another gorgeous Gertrude! Xxxx
My American Dingo's name is Ramona. She's my spoiled baby girl.
Her and I have done road trips together, hunted together, camped in tents and in cabins, gone fishing and a bunch of other things. She's been my shadow ever since I got her 9 years ago.
My sister had a Carolina dog, too. Aren't they the best?
@@jenniferdixon9707 they're so loving, she's like my shadow and she's cuddled with me every night that I've had her.
Everyone is her friend...according to her at least lol.
I've got a Kelpie/Aussie Shepherd mix (we think), and she LOVES entering a room and then wanting to leave it ASAP.
She has a heart on her butt!❤
I especially adore Skritch.
Omg Gertrude!!! Reminds me of my late German Shedder Gretchen 😭♥️ Miss you, baby. Run free behind the rainbow bridge. ♥️
That is my girl Skritch! So happy to see her in one of your videos! ❤
Miss Gertrude at the end:
' Open. Open. Open. '
Like the old Mervyn's commercial
🤣
Gertrude, you're just gorgeous! What a face!
I feel like youre spoiling us with two aussies in one week!! 💜💜 but im here for it lol
No matter the tone of the day, whether politics, world affairs or life in general, I always smile when I drop by for a visit. Thank you!
Skirtch and Gertrude are gorgeous babies ❤️
OMG! Gertrude has a heart on her butt!
I literally thought of the name “Mildred” when the video started. Hilarious that it happened to be an old lady name like Gertrude 😂
Question: if my large dog’s black nails are extra long, would you recommend trimming little by little as to not cut the quick? I have a nail grinder too but he’s not comfortable with the noise yet
That's exactly what you should do with long nails, go for it.
Yes if nails have been neglected and over grown the quick has also grown longer. Trimming a little at a time will slowly bring them back to normal without cutting into it and causing a painful bloody experience
I was expecting her to say “Mildred” too! lol Gertrude was just a grand.
Yep! Bit by bit. My dog is not a fan of the grinder, I think because it makes her nails buzz and she's very sensitive about her paws
@@saveoursquirrels4241 my boy wasn’t keen on having his nails trimmed since I adopted him so he’s still not used to it. I will work on it with him!
*sees title*
Yes? Police? This Title right here.
(Original title was: Have you ever milked a dog?)
Having 5 aussie & total 2 more in family = 7. Aussie is our forever dogs!
It's the heart shape on the dump truck 🤣🤣🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
I just got into the field of grooming because of watching this channel! I love how rewarding it can be but that it also has it's challenges!
Aweeee such a good girl
I give all my criters normal names. Aussies are smart. She knew what door she came in, and was more than ready to use it again to leave. Few more appointments and she should be good with the process.
I hope Gertrude is doing okay. What a nice girl.
I love how Gertrude looked up at you first before attempting to escape.
Gertrude is gorgeous....I think she looks more like a 'Gerty'😁💛 ...btw would love to see a clean up video, showing how you clear your salon of all the fluff🙂
We call her Gertie and our Catalan friends told us her name is Gertrudis in Catalan. Jer-trude-is. We call her this all the time. ❤
She made a video like that already
She's so beautiful and well behaved. My black tricolor Aussie tolerates a bath but is terrified of cutting nails & the blower. And when he sees the machine to shave between paw pads, he runs to his crate.
Omg, Gertrude has a heart on her butt! ❤️
What a cutie! Gertrude is such a unique name haha.
You did a great job with her!
And has anyone noticed Vanessas new haircut? Looking great!
Love this name for a dog! Makes me giggle thinking of her owners using it in a stern voice when she's done something naughty.
Gertie is a real cutie! Loved her in that happy hoodie and those great tap dancing skills.
Gertrude really looked good with ur personal touch... Thank u so much.
The undercoat rake and equigroomers deserve a "make it snow" ad. XD also I love that you call them "grinch feet"
What a lovely channel. Excellent audio, video & editing. Your narration is very soothing. Episodes are consistent and just the right length. Nothing is overdone; nothing too personal. Everything is in balance and harmony arises. We watch, we learn, we enjoy. You’re not trying to sell us something. Thank you for that, and also for showing us some of the cutest puppies in the whole, wide world! We are pleased. Job well done. Cheers!
Me myself and I can’t get over her 🖤
I love the tap dancing part lol
Gertrude is gorgeous... and too funny that she wants out right now!!! As for Skritch, she a beauty as well!
Oh Gertrude is a gorgeous dog! And really well behaved!
Scritch is somehow just the PERFECT name for a one eyed cat somehow.
Gertrude did really well! Especially at the end (Ha Ha - LET ME OUTTTTT!!!) She is a very pretty dog! and Skritch is adorable!
She did really good for clearly being nervous.
My neice has a beautiful Aussie and she also makes it snow anytime she shakes in the house! They’re so beautiful she can get away with it! 🥰🥰🥰
Ahhh the glands. My sister eloquently called it “Fish Butt”. Love the name Gertrude!
Oh dear! I love the finale! Gertrude waiting for her human to pick her up!
My dog is named Hubert Cumberdale. His dad was Australian Shepherd but the mom was Pitbull. Best dog I've ever had.
Aww, I love the name Gertrude. I know someone with two Labs named Charlotte and Georgia.
Very cute name for a dog! But it will forever make me think of geese, because of my favorite childhood Disney movie Aristocats, starring the two goose sisters Gertrude and Abigail.
Thank you❤❤
My baby girl looks so much like her! She's a mix of this and a husky, so she occasionally yells at us lol
I startitching and sneezing when I see all that fluff flying out. 🤧 😀
OMG this pupper looks so much like my good boy Ozzy. I still miss him even after 9 years.
Australian shepherds have a special place in my heart. We had a rescue shepherd/cattle dog mix. She was the absolute sweetest, and loved to try to round up our 2 horses 😂😂😂
Everytime there is an Australian Shepherd, I just know this is the dog I want to have forever.
❤️❤️ Gertrude.
Our red tri female is now a favorite at the groomer after her first trip to the groomer. She is friendly but bombastic in life. They made it good for her which s much appreciated
"..aggressive tap dancer..." I love how your are respectful as if your clients will one day view the video(s).
What a absolutely beautiful dog she is i have never seen a Black and Tan one before they look like Border dog's Vanessa you did a fantastic job on her i would have loved to be a dog groomer.Big thank you Vanessa for all your hard work grooming all these beautiful dog's and cat's...you are a fantastic person with a heart for gold 💛
My dog was a rescue who was listed as a German Shepard mix and while I was fostering him I only saw coat coloring as a German Shepard. When we adopted him we DNA tested him and he’s 4% German Shepard while he’s 34% Aussie Shepard
Gertrude can dance! She is a beautiful girl and your groom made her look great❤️👏👏👏
she seems extremely sweet and well behaved. You can see her thinking behind those eyes though xD
There is a fairy tale where an old lady makes it snow. She is called "Frau Holle", which means 'Mrs. Holle". I think she is also known as The Lady Winter. So that would be a funny Nick Name for you😅
Some find that tale a bit scary, but I loved it..the movie I saw was from the 1963 and it was my favorite movie for a long time! I was very young back then...like 5 or 6 years old.
What a wonderful professional!!!This is art!!Few people know how to do their jobs!!!
What a good girl Gertrude is! She let you do what was needed without much fuss after the bath.
Funny at door looking out for help🤣🤣🤣poor baby
Love her name. So pretty. Here’s to the best groomer.
Me while reading the title:👁👄👁
No , no i have not and would like to keep it that way pls….
I immediately thought of: "I have nipples, Focker. Can you milk me?"
😆🤣
lol
OH DAMN IT! I should have listened when you said 'you don't want to know'
I just googled 'expressing the glands'
and you were SOOOOOOOOO VERY RIGHT! I really didn't want to know! 😲😲😲
“You don’t want to know.” Exactly.
My father gave me my first dog when I was two,an Aussie shepherd that looked just like the one in the video. I grew up on a 800 acre farm and sometimes my father had to watch me while working so he made a harness, attached it to a modified wagon and my dog could pull along after him in the fields. Her name? Well, her name was Puddles, because my mother didn't really care for her in the kitchen (wherever I went Puddles went) and my mother would yell at her to stay out! Poor Puddles would pee on the kitchen floor every time- hence the name Puddles because of the huge Puddles she left in the kitchen convincing my mother that she was a poor choice of companion for me. I loved her dearly though, thanks for the trip down memory lane this morning! Love your channel!🐕🧡
Great story! Thanks for sharing!!
@@amyralls6218 Thank you, this dog looks just like my childhood dog that I loved so much. For some reason this video made cry today... she was an amazing dog. She would would meet me at the bus stop everyday and carry my lunch pail all the way home!
Same reason dad nicknamed one of our dogs Pisser. 😂
Aww such cutie! I love her so much!😊😊
My gorgeous Loki could be her twin! They are colored the same have the same tap dancing skills and yes, the same fuzzy dump truck. I'm definitely going to get those brushes!!
Poor Gertie,
She's at the door like... "I need an adult!"
How do you not just spend the entire groom kissing and cuddling these cuties?
cuz she spends her time being professional and not distracted.
and bet there is cuddles after is complete . better to cuddle a clean doggy then a slightly dirty one xD
@@CrimsonAkato
She often shows doing this and or playing with them.
Those adoring eyes, that kissable muzzle, those doggie dimples and, and and those playdough paws just kill me...
I love doggies
❤️❤️❤️
I love how you went from expressing the glands to grabbing her face.
I melted -- she looks like Max, my Australian shepherd growing up (black, brown and white).
They are the best dogs in the world.
🥰😃
Expressing the glands is something we have to do with our dog Sparky whenever he gets groom. Boy does it smell bad when they're clogged, and the smell does not come off of things easily...and his gets clogged easily
How do you know when your dog needs them expressed? I can never tell, but the vet always says they're super full 🥺 I don't want her to be uncomfortable
@@buttchug44 Often dogs will rub their butt along the floor or grass in an attempt to empty them. Also they often start to smell bad as well.
What does it actually smell like? Is there anything that compares?
@@eva-w Kind of like fish
@@buttchug44 dogs glands in their butt are supposed to be for marking territory when they poop, and when they don't express properly, it smells like a strong "fishy" smell (doesn't smell exactly like fish, like a musky fishy smell) that secretes when they're too full, or just causes discomfort for the dog and causes them to scooch their butt across the floor sometimes to relieve it. I was told that because my doggy's butt muscles are small it can cause them to not express properly, don't know if that's true but our vet told us that lol Sparky is a Maltese
for those who are curious, expressing the glands is when you squeeze a dog's anal glands to remove the fluid from them. don't recommend looking up pictures of videos- especially after eating.
🥴🤢🤧😳 I wish I'd read this before googling expressing the glands!
It also smells horrible lol
i feel bad for my dog when I take her to get it done :(
@@EchoXVince yeah especially if you don’t get it done recently they will rub their butts on the ground and it smells like a mix of fish and poop honestly I don’t know how someone does it as a job
@@Slawsers you just do it and continue on
I don't know but there is something I love about that particular pattern on a dog. It reminds me of young German Shepherds pups. Skitch has some beautiful green eyes. Talk about being photogenic. 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
Imagine waking up and seeing this beautiful creature 😍😍
Vanessa would you consider doing a video of all your dog's just playing together in your back yard? I don't think 🤔 we've ever seen them ALL together, not a groom but just playing together.
♥️🐶
12 years as a Veterinary Assistant, and I definitely know what expressing the glands means. I'm so sorry, there're few smells in the veterinary world worse than anal glands, but we do it for the puppers!
@@Prostreetsburnoutparadise you put your finger in the dogs rectum and press on the anal glands on both sides releasing the liquid!
@@Prostreetsburnoutparadise what is it ?
the thousand-yard stare after the expressing of the glands xD
Feeling great dog
