      Ive had rottweillers for 38 years. A lot of people dont realise that rottweilers are cattle herding dogs. My current boy doesnt have cows to herd so instead he focuses like a lazer on tennis balls. He seems to think it is important to round yp every tennis ball he sees. He can get three in his mouth, although it always worries me when he does that. But if i have a tennis ball in my hand i can get him to do pretty much anything. His focus wont move and he’ll ignore everything, even other dogs. I always say to people who dont have a lot of experience with dogs, ‘find their prime motivator, and use that’
      Sometimes people compliment me because i can walk my rottweiller without a leash and he doesnt leave my side (unless i tell him to). What people dont realise is that its because i have a tennis ball in my pocket (i have a squeaky toy in the other but thats not his dominant motivator. It does get his attention though. But ball trumps squeaky toy every time).

I've worked with rescued dogs and cats and many of them suffered 'abuse through kindness' which is a term for when an owner thinks they are spoiling an animal or treating it well but they are actually doing it a lot of damage. It's unintentional, and it doesn't mean they don't love the animal. They do. But no matter whether it's purposeful or not, their treatment of the animal in question still causes a lot of harm and suffering. :(

Females average between 60-80lbs, while males average between 90-130lbs. The size alone comes with the usual hip and elbow dysplasia, though individuals who suffer from it are in the minority.

      @zergiew There are breeders that specifically breed their German shepherds to have straight healthy backs. Vanessa (the groomer in the video) has a young all black German shepherd named Lupa whom is one of these dogs. Her breeder specifically breeds black German shepherds whom are smaller in size and straight Backed and ideal for service dog work. A sloped back has become a part of the breed only due to being introduced into the kennel clubs for dog showing. In reality a sloped back has no practical benefit for working/herding dogs which is what German Shepherds were invented for.

I had mutts all my life and then my new husband and I got full blood Black Labs (Aunt and niece) from a responsible breeder (and good friend). When they both passed we got a Black Lab mix from a shelter. He is no different than our "purebreds". I wouldn't trade our purebreds for the world. They were the best dogs.

    I still will insist dogs, especially GSDs, are very, very good at reading a person's intentions. This dog knew you were going to help her, groom her and talk nice with her. She was all for it. Plus, being a farm dog, she must know water won't hurt her. I was so amazed though at her reaction to the blower. No reaction at all... except one point where she was clearly enjoying it. Great job!

      She is probably used to hearing very loud farm machinery. The blow dryer might not scare her.

    Stunning job! Totally different looking dog by the end. It's like your groom took 10 years off her, revealing her true colors. Well done Vanessa. Her owner was rightly astonished.

      I can't believe how little time (in the long run) it took Vanessa to do this incredible transformation! I suspect the wonderful nature of this darling dog helped in keeping that time short!!

    Wow, what an amazingly well-behaved dog. It's hard to believe it hasn't gone through this process of being handled by a stranger for hours on a regular basis. So calm and happy-looking.

    She looks absolutely beautiful! I think she was smart enough to know that she would not only feel fantastic but that her mama would be elated at the results. Of course! She has a wonderfully patient and caring groomer!🙂
