- This matted dog had more than 6 pounds of extra fur on his body - wait till you see how cute he was after his haircut
We talked to his rescuers about how he was one of the worst cases of matting they’d ever seen, and what a good boy he is now!

What a great ending, those adopters look like they are the kind that will spoil him for the rest of his life, which is what he deserves after all he went through.
Yes you are so right on your comment!
Im just worried about places like that will give you a dog thats twelve years old after you wait sometimes years and pays lots of money for a dog they just didnt wanna have to pay to put down he luves 2-8 months on 600 dollars a move worth if meds just seems like a scam
@@Deltathegoldenretriever First of all, what? Second, KC Pet Project is a rescue organization, not a breeder. Everyone who goes there knows that they are adopting a rescue.
This really hurts my heart that no one helped this poor baby allllllllllllll that time. I can’t understand. Thank god for the rescuers.
Exactly my thoughts,hes a little darling
Look at that tail wagging constantly, he’s so happy you’re helping him!!!! Thank you!!!
A new lease on life!! God bless you people and the little sweetie!! 5:40 5:44
A wagging tail doesn’t always indicate happiness. It often indicates anxiety, a release of energy, a submissive plea for someone to stop, etc.
@@graceg3250 yeah the dog was probably anxious because he didn't know what was happening, but I bet that after he got used to the haircut, he felt happier than ever begore
@@graceg3250submissive gesture isn’t always a plea to stop but literally a request not to be hurt, because he doesn’t quite understand what’s happening.
Years of neglect! Shame on you people who let it happen!
Big thank you to the rescuers and adopters.
AAAAMEEEEEEN TO THAT HUN, 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
❤❤❤❤😂😂😂😂wow beauitful
The saying is happy as a clam not cucumber.
Poor little guy! He must of been so miserable w/all that fur! You can see how relieved he was after it was all shaved off. Thank you for helping him & finding him a loving family!
6.5 pounds of fur, dirt, urine, feces, etc., that Simon had to carry. No wonder he had to relearn how to walk normally. Poor baby!And, this had been going on for how long?!?
His body looked in pretty good shape, once they got him shaved and bathed so, my question is this: Was he a stray or surrender? I mean, someone had to have been feeding him, because he wasn't emaciated. I guess it doesn't really matter in the end, though. I'm just happy he has a new family who love him and will take care of him now.
Happy trails!
His face was so dog gone cute! Each tail wag was a thank you for making me so gorgeous and happy.
*must HAVE
Poor little dog I couldn't even tell what sort of dog he was until he was shaved thk goodness for those people who rescued him & gave him a lovely shave & a new life & to the lovely people who adopted him he must feel on top of the world now ❤
Happy "tails" to you, Sweet puppy! Bless you and your new Family and friends ❤️ 💕
All that shaving, and not one single scratch on him! Those nurses/vets have MAD skills. Thank you! 💚
I'm surprised the dog didn't have open wounds from all that fur. Lucky little fella.
True heroes! ❤
I'm shocked he didn't have raging maggot infested wounds with all the feces and urine trapped in that mass. I've sadly seen some of these cases during my years in veterinary practice so I' SO glad Simon had a great outcome.
pretty sure they sedated him
@@thejwvariety when trimming a dog that matted it is really hard not to accidentally cut him with the clippers in some spots even if he is sedated.
Oh my gosh his feet and skin must have hurt so bad. He is such a sweetie. So glad he got the help he deserved and desperately needed.
Pulling on his skin ,probably struggled to sit down and sleep
Poor little baby! I can’t believe people just walked away and didn’t help him and let him get that bad. I’m so thankful that he was adopted by wonderful people! KC Pet Project is a wonderful organization.
People have become robots. They don't have feelings anymore for poor animals.😌
What kind? A peke or a shitz?
@@Bella14200More like a shitzu
@@tammyduncan5708 We have a shitzu with the exact coloring on hi back. Please give this lovable bozo the best life he can ever get.
@@sukanthyranjitkumar8725 most ppl don't no, but then there's us few lol
God Bless all who helped this precious boy and the lovely couple for adopting him❤❤
Simon would have felt amazing after his groom.
Lol at "amazing."
Learn some new words.
@@user-dh6bj2me5pWtf is wrong with amazing?
@@user-dh6bj2me5p Nothing wrong with "amazing". After all, amazing is in the dictionary. Learn to stop being so critical of others.
This beautiful animal, after being sedated when he woke up.....
Bloody hell, he must've thought he died and went to heaven with all those matted clumps of hair gone.
What an absolute relief and so much joy after carrying that load.
Oh my... Poor pup, that has to hurt so much 😭
Oh my goodness, he has to feel so much better. Poor guy. He’s so cute now!
A big thank you to the groomers!! So very patient & gentle!!!❤❤
People shouldn't leave dogs like that. It's just plain cruelty.
Another meaningful comment by Captain Obvious
Agreed
@@jarrodhall3686and another comment by a jerk
@jarrodhall3686 don't bring your anger out on people just because your in a bad mood.
For sure!
Omg poor puppy. Glad he feels better now.
Ohmigod, I can't imagine the suffering of that poor little guy! I bet he felt so much better after just getting all of that matted hair off of him. The little tail wagging the entire time they were bathing him really said it all! I'm so glad he was rescued from whatever horrible situation he was in and a good, loving family was found for him!
Not only do I think he felt better but I felt better after all the matting was removed!
Thank you very very much for helping god bless you ❤❤🙏🙏
I just cried seeing his tail wagging while he waited for his bath. 🐾❤️🐾
He was nervous and shaking in fear/cold, that’s what that tentative tail wag means
I cannot imagine having that many mattes in my hair! One tangle around my neck is uncomfortable, but your whole head? I bet being touched, petted and handled is a new experience for him. Thank you for the rescue!
✨🐾♥️🐾✨
Makes me wonder why some people wear dreadlocks.
Simon is a happy little guy now he's got good people to take care of him.
And without even nicking him! What a fabulous job!
I was holding the tears until 3:17 when the little guy was shown wagging his tail after getting all that matted coat off him. He must have woken up from the grooming thinking he had gone to Heaven feeling so light and free getting bathed and cared for by Angels. ❤
Sure, since dogs obviously have the same delusional connotations as Christians do..
How many people and for how long did they pass by this poor baby and just turn a cheek??? I do not understand that. Thank you to all that helped him.
Hw someone could do that to a dog, who give us nothing but love and loyalty. A big thank you to everybody who helped this handsome little guy! 🐶
No kidding! Although it sounded like he was a stray. So maybe just over time, without help it turned into that. Either way, sooo glad he’s ok now. Poor baby! So cute now!!
@@jules3048 this happened over a long time. I doubt the dog would have survived on its own as a stray with nothing to eat or drink and difficulty moving. There are people that dump dogs like this and you should see what they do in an Amish puppy mill.
@@Wisepati actually that’s a really good point u made. I didn’t think of that. Regardless of what happened I’m just glad he’s ok now.
someone hasnt met my chihuahua
"Happy as a cucumber" :) I think he surpassed cucumber happiness and levelled up to clam (English is such a weird language)
Most people who speak English would say happy as a lark or happy as a pig in slop. We would also say cool as a cucumber for a calm person or animal.
@@elouise5593 Yes, but "happy as a clam" is an old-timey English expression, too. (I didn't actually hear about it until I took a graduate-level English class in college -- the prof loved expressions like that.) "Happy as a cucumber" was most likely an original coinage of the vet's, but I like it, too. 😄🥒
Can’t imagine what this poor dog was going through. How does this even happen
Neglect
Because humans are cruel
This must have been such a relief for this furbaby.
We here in Kansas City LOVE KC Pet Project!! They are an amazing asset to our community. From head managers to volunteers there is compassion and caring for the animals AND the people.
Ditto. Adopted from there before. Terrific people. Great facility.
Thank you! ❤
I can't imagine how thrilled he must feel the love of being petted and snuggled now! It's a whole new world for him now. ❤
This dog is going to have Rock Lee like strength after living with all that extra weight.
He’s shivering after his clip. It’s like he’s taken his overcoat off. What a relief for him.
Probably haven’t felt a human touch in ages
IKR? With all that matting (and whatever else was caught in that filthy mess), no one would be able to get through it to pet him, I'm sure. It's a miracle, too, that he didn't have any (obvious) skin problems. Lucky dog!❤❤❤
Tears are streaming down my face, unbelievable to see an angel like this! And his little tail just wagging. Amazing how resilient dogs are, animals... are. Thank you so much for saving him ❤❤❤
Poor baby. Thank you for rescuing and helping this sweet little dog.🐕🦺
Its so sad to me that this poor dog suffered for years to get that bad, and nobody helped him.....I'm thankful for all that you did for him, you are angels!💕💫
How can anyone let there precious 🐶 get this bad.. then kind people saved him and made him handsome and happy again..im honestly sick of postpone mistreating, hurting or ever worse to animals and the laws like us ahould be apllied. There have feeling also. We all should feel that love for everyone and not be treated like this. Thank you everyone who cared for Simon
Thank God y'all are taking care of him. Bless his heart. I like 5 minutes with the people who had him.
Poor little boy. Thank you so much for helping him!
Wow 😮 I've never seen a dog like that before 😢 I'm just happy that he found help ❤🤙🏾 Mahalo
Never seen Hope for Paws rescues?
Thank You The Dodo for sharing. Simon you are loved 🥰
That poor dog was likely carrying around an extra 50% of his body weight in dead, matted hair !
So glad that he was rescued, and kudos to the vet team, the groomers, and the adopters !
If anyone sees dogs in need, please, just help. Get them to a rescue, or a shelter.
I'm so glad they sedated this poor pup. It would have been so painful and overwhelming for him to be awake during the grooming. The groomers are amazing and did an incredible job of cleaning him up! Thank you so much to all of the wonderful people who came together to save this fur baby. I always love a happy ending. The Dodo has great animal stories. It is my favorite channel on all of CZcams!
Horrifying!!! ...Bless you all for loving, rescuing, nurturing him to life and health !
:( That made me sad seeing him like that. Just looking at him you knew he had to be miserable. He's no longer a prisoner of his own fur. :)
Thanks for helping him. The expression on his face was happiness.
That poor little fella😢 He finally found his Forever and a Mom and Dad that will bend over backwards for him❤
I live in St.Louis and know about the KC Pet Project and the amazing things they do for all fur babies. Truly grateful for all they do
This dog looked so relieved in the tub.
He was adorable before, but now he is happy and adorable after! ❤
Such a sweet little shihtzu, poor baby! He didn't know what to do with himself after that! Thanks to all!
My heart broke seeing this dog before his transformation. Thank you ladies for giving this dog relief and a new lease on life!
Poor baby 💗
Poor baby, I’m so happy for him. Thank you! ❤
What a relief to have the weight of the matted world off him! ❤
That poor thang just needed someone to care about him! I pray he'll never be without a special someone to spoil him from now on!! 🤗
What a tiny dog he was under all that horrible matting of hair! Bless you all for all you did for him!🐶❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I thought we had a cocker spaniel before the groom. Surprise!
Thank you to all the humans who are animal heroes!!
How someone can possibly wait until a poor soul become like this!?
I think some people get these types of dogs and don’t realize the time and costs to maintain the dog. Many dogs have to be groomed regularly.
Poor lil bub
Woke up & thought he'd gone to heaven ❤
He is walking in the tub like sayong "I can not believe the way I feel"...great job!Thank you for saving him.
No he was nervous and shivering. Idk how people can misinterpret body language so badly
WHO would EVER TREAT THEIR PET LIKE THIS! AND HE'S PRECIOUS NOW?🐶♥️♥️❤️❤️
Oh my word the matt in the basket looked like a sleeping dog.
Poor pup,special place in heaven for people like you ❤
He must have been so uncomfortable and irritated. Never being able to scratch. So happy he gets a happy life now.
how is it possible that people saw this poor baby like this and not do something about it 😩
He looks like a cute little old man.
How can you see this poor suffering pet and not help him??? He cant walk without pain and terrible discomfort and restriction. Bravo to the rescue who saved his life❤❤
Thank you!❤❤ That poor sweetie!!😘
As a former groomer, I can't tell how nerve racking it is shaving dogs that are that badly matted. Especially around areas like the eyes, the tuck up, arm pits, ears, & lips. The vets techs did an amazing job, it's amazing also that he didn't get a hematoma from the tightness of the matting.
Dogs that wouldn’t survive in the wild :’) thank you for taking care of him !
Боже мой!! Как можно так запустить Собачку!!!!????? Спасибо Вам дорогие, Хорошие Люди, что обратили внимание и помогли Собачке!!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉дай БОГ Вам Здоровья!!!❤❤❤❤❤
That’s bloody shocking-in so pleased you helped him 😊
That dog was probably cold as hell after the shave. Just wow though...
The fur was pulling on his skin and it's alot better he is shaved
Thank you
What a transformation. It feels good to see that there are wonderful people with a big heart to help animals in need. What a beautiful dog was hiding underneath all that matted hair.🥰
Little sweetheart must of been so uncomfortable. His weight was good so he’s been eating. ❤
I've never seen a dog with dreadlocks before😅 Happy he found relief
Look up the puli dog
@@krugerfuchstook it from my keyboard.
Hungarian mop dog.
Most people who say they like dogs know nothing about breeds.
I detest them and unfortunately we had a Kennel Club show dog... My only pasttime was learning about breeds. The irony.
@@LathropLdSTI detest people that think gross deformities such as dogs with no noses and bulging eyes is cute. Do they think the same thing if they saw that in humans? These people are insane. That poor dog cannot breathe...you can see it at the end of the video. I wonder if his sleep is affected. We must stop breeding brachycephalic dogs.
Those were not dreadlocks that was MATTED FUR!
@@Hellofa6ird Well, isn't that basically what dreadlocks are?
He must of thought that he died and went to doggy heaven when he woke up
Congratulations, Logan and family! Thanks so much to all who made this possible. 💗
Огромное спасибо вам за помощь этого малыша. Я очень рада, что ему помогли.❤❤❤
What a precious fella under all that matted fur! So happy he got the help he needed!
Poor baby Simon! Love to see that tail wagging while he's getting a bath. What a good boy!
Love his tongue
Beautiful transformation 😍 thank you ❤
Thank you for helping this beautiful baby.❤
I can't imagine what this poor sweet animal endured. I could never have imagined he was a Shih Tzu.
Always Adopt, Don't Shop!
Dog = God 😢✝️❤️💙
That poor baby. Thank you for making him better🙏🏽
Thank you to all involved here to help the lil guy.
Who is cutting onions in the comments section??? 😢😢❤❤
No one your just sensitive
Que tristeza que un pequeño sufra de tal manera que nadie aga por ayudarle,. gracias quien lo salvó de tal crueldad
thank you for saving that precious dog....so glad he got a loving home after all that suffering
😮He reminds me of a fussy uncle or grandpa but with a ❤ of gold
I can’t imagine what being scratched after all that fur was removed probably heaven.
He just knew , when he meet that family that these were his people....happy tears for me...i can't even imagined what it must have been for him. Best of lifes dear Simon Best of lives i wish you and your family!. ❤😊
That poor poor baby.... he will feel so happy and literally reborn!
I bet Simon is not only really fast but has extremely strong leaping abilities. Imagine finally removing a 6.5 lb weight vest when you only weigh 45 lbs.
Good good people
OMG I've cried watching that. He's the image of my Shih tzu Minton who we lost just over a year ago.
I would have adopted him in a heart beat.
You guys are so lucky 😢
I can tell his new family already loves him so much 😊
