She's not kidding about most labs being obese. I work at a daycare and literally 99% of the labs are overweight. It's heartbreaking to see and whenever owners take responsibility it makes me happy bc that's what the good babies deserve.
probably doesn't help that the vast majority of labradors are missing a gene that regulates appetite; a friend of mine's labrador once got into his food bag, and ate so much he genuinely couldn't move because of it. he was fine, thankfully, but the poor guys need some of those genes bred back into them
Yup. It’s irritating. Growing up I had a female black lab who looked just like the lab in the video (minus the color). She lived to be like 13 or 14 years old, and was incredibly healthy and active her entire life. We never table fed her and she spent most of her time exploring the outdoors. It’s a shame so many lab owners chose to let their dogs get that way….
@@tomsuiteriii9742 Yes. My best friend has a Golden Retriever Lab mix and it honestly makes me sad since both breeds are espically Labs are so food driven. She isn't very obidient when it comes to food. No matter how big or little quantities of food you eat around her she automatically starts drooling!!! And everytime I visit her she gets even bigger (she is 5 as of now.) I've known her since she was a puppy and she has been food obsessed and driven her whole life. But she's very sweet
Same. I have a GSD that our vet commented he is a great weight and nice & lean. Nearly everyone else that comes across him says he looks too skinny. I think the general public, including many dog owners, do not understand what is healthy vs. overweight. It makes me sad.
We have a Lab, and children. Therefore we have a organic k-9 good disposal. Any and all food dropped is hers. She is pretty lean, but just a little big more than this girl. Not a land seal in our house. But I can easily see how that could happen
I love the dogs who really get into the drying.
It’s a lot more fun for the folks drying them too let me tell you 😭
Colostrum. Works in humans and pets.
Omg yes
I had a dog who hated staying still for her bath but the second she saw the dryer she flopped down on her towel and if you tried to stop she would pick her head up and just stare at you till you continued the drying
@have a nice day 😘 pn
Wow her owners are amazing, she’s extremely healthy and lean
She’s too thin from the stress of itching!
! Didn't know that, I like the fat ones
Its when Labs get older, 5+ years, they chunk up. A 3yr old will be lean unless the owner is lazy.
Could be 5 lbs heavier.
@@tedcity5861 can you get a older lab that you exercise to get lean.
"Don't even attempt to open a cheese wrapper..."
Yes, we know all too well. Our latest labrador, Buster (black) could be in a dead sleep, but the second you opened the fridge door or opened the nachos packet, there he was. xD
Also, you say labradors are meant to be lean and muscular, but Buster was a Big Boi: an English version, we got his weight down to a decent level after we rescued him, but it had a habit of creeping back up if you weren't keeping an eye on him. But Packer is definetly a lot leaner compared to the Thunderous Thor.
Was Girl With the Dogs opening up a cheese package towards the end of the video? Precious Packer was barrelling towards the camera 😉
Labradors have a lot of issues with weight.
Some labradors (mainly chocolates) have huge weight problems (not caused by their owners).
We had a beautiful female chocolate lab who was a big girl. I understand the parents were also large. She also had allergies and was very well behaved and intelligent. She’s been gone since 2011 and is still very much missed.
she says that definitly for labradors cause they gain weight really fast it seems like and + its a good thing to say to get it to owners heads dont let your dog get fat lol. Its not a quote that needs a reply lol. Keep the weight down as a friendly reminder.
I also had a black lab named Buster growing up. Great minds think alike :)
She was so sweet, pity about her allergies. Hopefully her owner figures out what's bothering her so badly
Could be food allergies. My Lab couldn't have corn or chicken.
It may also be the bowl. Go metal or ceramic instead of plastic
@@samj530 my lab too is allergery on chicken or egg 😢
Could be a combo of food and outdoor allergies, my lab/hound mix has both.
It's human allergy season right now, could be outdoor allergies for Packer. Ragweed season is upon us, and I resemble that poor dog right now with itchy eyes too.
just how i look after a night of studies
black eyes, shivering of excitement and energy after so much coffee
Black eye circles are more conspicuous on the fair-skinned. Just coffee, no caffeinated "energy" drinks? CZcamsr Chubbyemu posted one on energy drinks czcams.com/video/tAtaIZD0Ebs/video.html
So did Medlife Crisis czcams.com/video/na6tkBVVHCQ/video.html
this girl just said studies and excitement in the same sentence. god bless you
This is too relatable. I pretend i do not see it ➖👄➖
Haha yes I also only look like that after long nights and no other times in my life
lol
I really feel for Packer. Not only do I have allergies, but my dog, Hud, had them, also. I would occasionally give him Benedryl because he would chew his pads until layers of skin were gone. His ears would turn a bright-ish red and he would sneeze multiple times in a row. There was only ONE shampoo I could use and that was an oatmeal one (I can't remember the brand). Poor Packer.
I had a beagle that was the same, would chew his paws raw. Was the bottle green? I used oatmeal wash too.
Don't let this distract you from the fact that I get bullied because my classmates think my videos are the worst. Please don't agree, dear sa
We had a GSD who would chew the fur off her stomach every summer. Best guess the vet had was she was allergic to either grass or dirt.
Haha same here, my dog and I are both allergic to grass. We also live on a farm.
I've found that Apoquel works incredibly well on my boys allergies, they're basically a non-issue now.
Edit: I just realised you're using past tense. I'm sorry for your loss and I hope you're doing better ❤
@@Pringless16 be careful with apoquel! It is not a long term solution as it WILL cause issues with liver and kidneys and such necessary things in the dog body!
I have an American Bully that I took in after she had been rejected by three previous "owners" due to her constant skin related problems. One of the first things I did, was to change her diet. No more cheap corn laden non-nutritious dog food that she'd been eating since puppyhood. I started feeding her a high protein no grain dog food which I supplemented with fresh carrots and an occasional slice or two of apple. It took a little less than three weeks before her skin and coat looked fabulous!
Good for you!! That processed dog food is garbage and it's poisoning our pets!
Thats fantastic! I'm glad you found something that works for your pup.
I would like to suggest that you look into a similar food that is *not* grain free, as there is some emerging research in veterinary science suggesting that grain-free diets are correlated with heart problems in many dogs. Some grain is a natural part of a dog's omnivorous diet!
💪💪💪💪
That’s awesome! I’m sad she got turned down by many, but excited that she’s with someone who cares for her now! You’re an awesome owner :)
Awesome!
I have a lab and can confirm, no meal is ever alone…
I met a Mastiff/Labrador mix, and those breeds are ones I’ve NEVER seen lean, probably because they’re hard to keep lean unless you walk them 3 or 4 miles a day, but I was INCREDIBLY impressed with how lean and muscular he was. He was also incredibly well behaved, even for a well trained dog. His owner was military, so I’m sure that has something to do with both, but holy heck he was a good boy.
I know! Right?
My lab was a chunky boy. Was only fed the correct amount once a day. (No exercise offered by humans) but had total free range of our property. And he lived 18 years! So the "fat fat river rat" name calling thing must not apply to ALL dogs.
I think EVERYONE is different, no matter your species, breed, etc. We just get what we get.
I have a lab/hound mix and a lab/rottie mix and the hound is a lanky guy but the rottie muscles took over on her so she's not fat just suuuuper stocky and strong
@@malapoyo Hope your future/current dog gets some excercise outside the yard also :)
I had a lab/mastiff mix and he was 50kilos but otherwise very healthy!
If he was black with a white chest in California it might have been ours.
1:22 Packer is thinking, "Oh, no! She is making do the leg dance! She has found my secret weak spot! I cannot stop the leg dance!"
Lmaooo that was a serious leg shake😂😂 it’s so cute
I think she's itchy. That leg dance is something I've noticed dogs doing when I scratch an itchy spot on them.
“Don’t even attempt to open a cheese wrapper…”
That’s the truth. I grew up with Labs and lived in a two story house. Even when the Labs were upstairs, they could hear my mom whenever she was opening a bag or cheese wrapper and would run down to beg over it. 🤣
Ditto. Even saying the word "cheese" would get mine to come running.🤣🐕👍
My late beagle was like this as well. To this day I'm still trying to figure out how I managed to sneak out of my bedroom (because Zach was my shadow), head downstairs, and make part of my lunch. As soon as he heard the familiar sounds of the ham deli bag open, I heard a loud thud (he was asleep on my bed at the time), running footsteps down the stairs, and straight into the kitchen. He gave me the dirtiest of looks of 'you didn't wake me for this????'
I know not a lab, but beagles are gluttons for food as well and prone to becoming overweight if one just keeps on giving them snack/doesn't exercise them.
Poor girl, She’s really cute.
Packer is Adorable, I hope her allergies don't take over.
Camera in yard: Exists
Packer: I'm about to end this man's whole filming career
Naah, either the camera person was chomping down on a cheese snack or someone behind was opening up a cheese package.
Packer is just like ‘whatever it’s all good, I trust you and I trust The Process’
thank you so much for your comment on overweight dogs/pets! some people are so ignorant and refuse to listen when someone tells them their dog needs to lose weight.
Yup I agree mate. I find it quite sad when I see an out of shape dog. It's so easy to keep your dog in shape, and first rule in our house is 'no begging'. So as soon as I get food for us humans my dog leaves the kitchen and goes on her bed till we finish. She doesn't hang around the kitchen table so no chance of scraps. And walked once a day off the leash to chase kangaroo's. She looked amazing till the day she died at 15. And it's not a hard thing to do.
Some people are so prideful they make it all about them: if you point out the health needs of their dog, they take it as a personal attack on their character, so they dig their heels in and refuse to take responsibility or admit fault.
Omg the way she bounces her leg while you blowdry and brush her neck ❤
"Oh yeah, oh yeah Vanessa, that's the spot!"
With our Hamish, it was the initial "crack" at the start of peeling a banana. Did't matter where he was, you'd turn around and he's sitting there ( always at the edge of the kitchen, he wasn't allowed in unless invited ), quietly wagging the end of his tail.
Most of the time I wouldn't even look, just toss something over my shoulder. He would rarely miss it.
We nick-named him " The Stomach that Walks".
Even after his 13 years, he was still as goofy as ever.
I miss him terribly. I also had no idea exactly how stuff we drop on the kitchen floor.
We do now.
My family had a Golden Retriever that did the same thing. She could be in the middle of the back yard watching for evil woodland critters that wanted to invade, but through two rooms and a closed door, she could hear a banana being peeled! Bam - right at the back door wanting in. How did she do that??? 😁
I had a Jack Russel that loved bananas too :D Well she loved all food, really. If we tossed her a snack she never let it touch the floor. Vet said she was a tiny bit chonky but was still within a healthy weight range, so she never had to go on a diet. Don't think it would have lasted very long anyway :)
You’ll never believe this, but I had a Pom who was CALM in my salon the other day.
And she was so good for the dryer 😭♥️
I never wanted to be a Labrador so much in my life
It's alright dear, you must've been a beloved pet.
I just love it when a dog is barreling towards me with their ears flopping and that silly grin on their face that trotting like a horse, it’s like “where have u been? Loong time no see!!! Whyyyy did u leaavee??” And that too when u were absent just for 5 hrs.
Packer looks like a great example of a field lab. Too bad about the allergies but her temperament is spot on.
For a dog. Your garden must be like Solomon's mines. With all the scents that are constantly updated.
I enjoy watching your videos.
Thank you.
This hits to close, I'm having an awful day with my allergies acting up, sneezing like crazy and having congestion, his cute face helps making me smile in the middle of my sneezing attack.
Gosh I hate alergies...
Gotta build up on your immunity by keeping a healthy lifestyle. Been to an Ear-Nose-Throat specialist, told me that the glands in my nose were all swollen and prescribed a nose spray. The nose spray worked "instantaneously" ---- for an instant. Then later got a worse runny nose. Gave that up and lived with my acute sinusitis or whatever. Then one day, I realised that the problem was gone! Aaahhh... good health.
Yep, me too x So hard with the fluffers x
@gigi my morning sneezing allergies cleared up with Bach Flower Remedies - Walnut and Beech (protection against changes and intolerance). Remaining occasional sneezing bouts cleared up with the Impatiens remedy (hard to believe but time pressure set me off sneezing too!).
Still tackling my skin allergies (vastly reduced) through a combination of Bach Flower Remedies and food screening. Going good.
Do try them. They have no side effects which is why I tried Bach Flower Remedies in the first place as most medicines aggravated my condition. It's safe for pets too.
Wish I had known about them earlier. Could have avoided years of poor quality of life. Hope this helps someone. Or their pet!
Thank GOD it’s not COVID. They both start out the same, but then WHAM ⚠️ 🛌 🛌 🛌 🛌 🛌
Hope you’re working with a good allergist and getting (ahem) evidence based medical treatment for your allergies. Years of allergy shots mean I’m no longer afraid to step outside in the spring anymore.
Oh man, i’m constantly reminded about how weird my Labrador is… her personality is like a cat, where she’ll sleep most hours of the day, is extremely calm and quiet, and only likes some attention. We try to walk her as often as we can, but since she HATES leashes with a passion, we tend to mostly make her do exercise in our backyard. She only has energy for an hour of play and then she’s chill the rest of the day.
Despite being the world’s biggest couch potato, she’s the skinniest one in our family. She’s incredibly small for a lab, and weighs only 55 pounds.
The only time she acts like a proper lab is when it comes to food lol
I guess she's ok though? Like no heart issues or anything?
Ya know, I mostly watch this channel because of the interesting way this lady talks. It's fairly relaxing.
Im a caregiver for a lady with a lab, a Siamese, German shepherd, and a Chihuahua. Every day when I come to the house the lab brings me her favorite toy and we have 5 min of adoration!
About “land seals” a neighbor when I was growing up had a Beagle that looked more like a balloon with ears, legs and a tail than a dog…. It was kind of sad, and he ended up with severe hip problems before he had to be put down. Unfortunately Beagles are stomachs with noses, so you really have to be constantly aware of their food intake.
Well you could work against that if you would actually use them for their purpose: hunting. I know so many hunting Beagles and they all look fabulous like they're supposed to. Thats the reason why many hunting dogs can only be purchased when you're an active, licensed hunter in Germany xD . But I also see a lot of trainers that have like literally no clue. I've been to a trainer twice, and there were two Lab puppies, that were super chubby. And one of the owners told the trainer if she should feed less, because they were told (By their VET i might add) that their puppy was too fat. And the trainer seriously said: No! he is in perfect shape! Don't feed him less, vets don't learn nutrition and feeding habits in their studies! - And I was just like:.....excuse me wtf?! Never went there afterwards, as they were clearly absolute idiots. Poor puppy.
Those back pawsies splaying out like that! Absolutely priceless!!
I love how dogs that enjoy being blow dried thump their foot on the ground like Thumper from Bambi. It's cute!
Keep up the good work as always, Vanessa!
I suffer from a skin condition that makes me very itchy and I can't imagine anything better than having my whole body brushed and raked.
I have a trim lab and can attest to the challenge of keeping labs slim: especially during a pandemic! 😅 Hata off to Packer’a people!
"Dog needs to be Lean and Muscular"
Having an Aspin that has a good leaping ability and agility that is now 11 years old is one happy doggo.
Congrats. My husky is getting chubby. Gonna start walking her more.
My dog had serious allergies and I took her off all grains and most veggies. Cleared her right up.
You really do care about these doggies on a special level
Shes such a good girl 😭
Poor little sweetheart 😢❤️
Their enthusiasm for life is unmatched 😁
I'm so happy to hear that the term "land seal" is used by more people than just me and my family
You came to the right groomer, Packer, hope the treatment makes a big difference! 😽
You can tell Packer just loves the grooming from beginning to end.......dog musta been really itchy!!!😊😊😊
Packer is so sweet. I feel for her, my skin is very itchy so I understand. 😢😊
A dog that's best friends with a blow dryer isn't a dog. It's a unicorn.
Holy shit I need a copy of Packer's workout regiment :O! She's ripped!
I feel you Packer. Allergies plague me too 😩
“A dog with the energy to power a car”. All I saw was a calm n quiet dog on a table. It all changed until that last running shot. That is one crazy hyper dog.
Do not own a Lab but what sweet caring loveable dogs.
Such a sweetheart. I love when she's all happy, running around in the end.
I love labs so much 😭💙💙💙
My chocolate lab is such a dramatic boy, he'll just flop over and whine if you don't give him belly rubs 🤣
i like to think she was so well behaved because she recognized that you were making her feel better:)
Poor Packer. His eyes looked swollen. I'm sure the oil treatment felt good to him.
I had a Labrador Retriever and he was so energetic and he ripped up so much carpet lol
We had a big chunky chocolate lab named Hershey we adopted as an 8 year old pup. She lost weight with my family but was overweight because her joints were so arthritic it was hard for her to walk far. She lived to be 13 years old, and was such a good girl. My little baby cow
Love how she keeps looking into the camera as if asking 'are you sure it's not recording'
The sweetheart! She was so relieved to get a good skin rub. The hind leg proved it.
Awwww . . . this reminds me of my beautiful yellow lab, Mandy who left this world a few years ago. she was a treasure not only to me but my whole family. Fortunately, I never had trouble with skin issues. Perhaps it is because we lived near a lake and we were there every day for a run and a swim. Not sure. I am now contemplating getting another!
our labrador literally jumps up and eats cherry, plum, apricot, and pear from the tree and despite all our attempts she is always a little chubby. not the really round fat kind but despite a huge yard, the infinite playing and running with her friends - our cat and the neighbor's german shepherd puppy - she never runs out of energy nor gets into very fit shape. not even winter when she can't steal fruit from the garden🥺😫😆
our old lab was an original one, low and with a really wide chest. everyone thought he was fat while he was on good healthy weight and we walked him around 4 times a day. was a vacuum when it came to food though :p
Same mine. Eating less than she should and got plenty of walks + kiddo is running after ball few (hundreds) times a day. Still fatter than she should. It's like she gain weight from air.
She was enjoying that scrubbing so much. Hope her skin is now soothed.
everytime i see a video about labs/goldens being good family dogs, i think about our late family dog charlie. when my niece was born, he wasnt thrilled about being replaced as the baby of the family, but he was so sweet and tolerant with her. he would let her sit on his back, play with his ears and tail, and wrap him in blankets. he also did tummy time with her and would lay down next to her when she napped. i've never seen such a sweet, caring dog as charlie.
Wonderful ending...glad to see Packer still so happy
What a sweet baby~!
I love your content, and wanted to mention that cause of you, I bit the bullet and bought a small equigroomer for my cat and dog, and it's been AMAZING! Thank you so much for showing these amazing products, as well as sharing these amazing animals, and making our days just a little bit brighter!
My cat loves the sound of your voice, he comes running when I start watching your videos!
I’ve had 4 wonderful labs in my life. Such a wonderful blend of goofball, playmate, foot warmer, vacuum cleaner and beggar. Eventually you don’t see the drool and get on the floor and wrestle with them for 5-10 minutes once you get home from work or school
This thumbnail is too cute
Aw Packer at the end in your garden: go Packer go!
I love big dog puppies. They are 60% legs and their run is amazing
That poor baby's eyes ~ I have terrible allergies and my eyes are the worst. I feel she is a kindred spirit of mine. ♥♥♥
What a sweetheart.
Happy pupper 🥺
So CZcams can now translate comments and it says that pupper means something else in Norwegian 😆
I saw the translation, but how did you know the word pupper was Norwegian? It doesn't say so on my smartphone view
Packer makes me miss Bentley, the golden labrador I grew up with. He was the best boy.
HER FOOT DURING THE BLOW DRY 😭😭😭
Demonstration of what it's like opening a cheese wrapper at the end
Oh my goodness! You behavior description was spot on! I have a 1/2 bloodhound-1/2 lab and this describes him on a low energy day, lol
Packer is the most beautiful Labrador I’ve ever seen. She’s in such good shape and her face is perfect 😍
I bought one pf those acme groomers from Amazon. OMGosh!!! It is one of the best brush that I have ever used. My dog loves, loves, loves it. Money well spent.
such a pretty girl! i hope she feels better and her owners try something different for her itchy skin.
We use apoquell to keep our doodle from having irritated skin and eyes. Can be expensive but its worth it to keep her from itching so relentlessly.
What a patient little angel.
omfg she went from dignified lady walking into the yard to SPAZZY GIRL real quick lol
What an adorable, playful and well behaved fur baby!!! They really are a great breed.❤️
Do you have a dog?
Oooh, her allergies may be food related. I immediately noticed the tear stains around her eyes.
I was thinking the same thing. It may be food allergies. I had to switch my miniature dauchund to a raw fed diet and they completely went away.
Those aren’t tear stains, she was scratching her face and rubbed the fur off. She said this in the video.
It could be, but unfortunately there are no end of artificial compounds we humans use in our lives which could end up causing allergies with continuous exposure.
ya could be. I switched my dog food from chicken to Salmon. Doing much better.
💙🤗💙 I'VE never MET a BAD LAB💙ALWAYS BEEN a LOVING, funny BREED💙🤗💙10.6.21💙🤗💙
Poor baby looks so relieved after that shower
I love watching your videos. I have learned so much from you and applied it to taking care of my Eskies. Thank you for your videos
Packer is beautiful!! You’re amazing with animals! my mother in law groomed dogs for years and you remind me so of her!! You’re definitely in the right career!!! 💗💗💗
I had my first day of trimming dogs at university this week, so seeing things I remember from that lesson here makes me smile because wow!!! I know this now!!
Packer makes me think of our Sandy.....we brought her home @ 6 wks old & she got to do what she was born to do her whole 12 1/2 yrs. We kept her trim, he brushed her every day right before feed time so she loved it. Even using a deshedder, she was still a walking furball & my black cloths demanded I carry a roller brush in my purse. 🤪🐕
This is so cute!
Several studies suggest that vitamin D deficiency contributes to skin allergies. You might suggest that the owner consider supplementation.
She is beautiful. And a super mum and dad who dont let her pig out. ❤
Poor itchy girl. Hope she gets over it!
Seems like a lot of labs and bully breeds get skin allergies. My mom's dog Homer has some black lab and when he was younger he was really itchy. Shook the whole trailer we were living in at the time.
My mom ended up getting him some fish oil and we changed to a different food and now he's a lot better. We suspected a wheat allergy.
why does she look like she just got done crying
Her eyes are swollen from scratching.
I definitely echo the sentiment of keeping your labs (and all dogs) in shape! Our chocolate lab lived until 16 and I definitely think it was because we gave her lots of exercise and a good diet! Keep them lean and active, and they'll be around for years :)
Oh god, she's really engjoying those scratches and the blow dryer.
"Labradors are very distractive .."
...
ERICA! Come over here
I have one friend whose dog is allergic to humans. 😢😢
I have another with a lab that is as accidentally destructive as implied, it broke its tail bashing it against a table leg due to Chronic Lab Happiness Syndrome.
I feel ya packer. I'm currently scratching a lot too
