Saber looks like a toasted marshmallow. 🤣🤣🤣
Rest in peace, Kuma. ❤
The fluffiest of toasted marshmallows! 🥰
Perfect description!
Such a beautiful dog!!!
Toasted marshmallow....love it:)
We really need a Kuma shirt. Something with a caption like "your dad is disappointed in you" or "resting b***h face."
Not me sitting here bawling my eyes out over finding out Kuma passed away. I will miss him so much. He was a handsome boy. I'm happy to know out of all the groomers he could have trusted he chose Vanessa. Time to go watch Kuma videos again
what the hell happened to him
@@hollymedici2936he passed away she made a community post about it on her main channel
😢
What happened
😢me 2😢
The Kuma videos led us down the road to eventually adopt an Akita of our own ... she is coming up on 7 months old and we love her mischievous sense of joy.
That's awesome! Congrats on the new family member. ❤
@@JBOD Thanks so much :)
that is awesome. socialize them early. they are intelligent, stubborn, beautiful, loving great family members
11:56 is SUCH a pet owner mood. 😂 I lost it at his slightly guilty look, all while he never actually stopped chewing lol
The side eye lmao
Akitas are masters at bombastic side eye 😂
It's always so difficult to be mad enough to let them know it's not ok! I always end up laughing 😂
Is it not normal for dogs to fake having something in there mouth? Cause mine would do that when I ignored him for more than two minutes.
For real. That's the face of a dog chewing on his own nail clipping for sure lol.
Are we sure that Saber isn't two golden retrievers in an akita trenchcoat?
Rest in Peace Kuma.
🤣
😂
😂😂😂

Saber looks like he will do an excellent job of continuing Kuma's legacy.
Not enough RBF 😅. But he is the sweetest, goodest boy.
What's RBF?@@BewareTheLilyOfTheValley
Saber is so sweet. He reminds me of an Akita we had in our family, Panda. She was 100lbs, so kind of big for a female, but she had no idea. She was mellow and quiet like Saber. We used to joke that she was like Eeyore. She was very shy. Panda barked about 6x in her 10 years of life and each time scared herself and had us wondering which neighbor got a new dog 😂 She definitely had the Akita intelligence and stubbornness. If she didn't want to do something, she'd sit and not move (common for Akitas). We used to crack up when she would bring a toy to you b/c she would bring it to your face as if you were supposed to use your mouth too 😅 When annoyed at someone or something, she would gently swat it w/ her huge paw. She was such a great dog. Akitas are fantastic but not for novice owners. I would say they should be the only dog unless they were raised together as puppies and w/ very balanced owner(s).
That made me laugh when you said she brought the toy to your face. Lol Sounds like a funny lovely girl. ❤
We call it setting anchor. Our 130 lb girl does the same thing. sits, gives you the ears. She happily tells anyone in her sight that they are on her turf. She loves other dogs, and always wants to play. Her play is overwhelming to some dogs we dog sit and they are terrified of her. Others love playing with her. It is amazing how she can adjust to the size of her playmate. She plays with tiny dogs very gently, she plays with big dogs like two heavyweights in an octagon.
This toasted marshmallow is such a good boy and so cute, he’s looks like he has a golden retriever type demeanor
Met an 11-year-old Akita yesterday. Gorgeous, dignified, and quiet. A well-bred, well-trained elder statesman.
What’s his name?
My Akita just turned 11 last month and looks almost identical to Saber.
It’s too bad his health is starting to deteriorate 😢
The wife and I are going to have to make some hard decisions in the near future…
They're like the serious older brother of a husky 😂
What a good boy.
Akitas are so cute they look gorgeous and cuddly like a teddy bear, I love them! 🥰 Their breed originates from Japan and was selectively bred in order to create the perfect bear hunting dog. That is why it is so important to train them and socialize with other dogs/animals early on, so that they are friendly and good with other animals and humans alike. Because if you don't, they can get very dangerous and uncontrollable, not all, but some could tun problematic without any proper care in their younger years. Their hunting instincts could kick in and turn against other dogs and animals, something all responsible owners would want to avoid.
😂
Helping himself to the fridge, making himself comfortable, soaking you asap... he's gonna be a fun friend indeed.
I'm sorry to hear about Kuma. He was such a grumpy- faced darling.
Funny
the fact that he knew what the fridge was and how to open it tells me he's gotten a few beers for his owner.
The more I watch your channel the more I want a dog. Aloha from Maui. I’m working with wildfire survivors here and your channel helps me clear my head. Many many pets were lost and died during the fires. It’s so heartbreaking. Mahalo for your channel. ❤❤
i like how she lets them drink some water before grooming she is so friendly to all the dogs as if they were her own (and also so friendly to the cats too)
And cats ❤❤❤❤
His face when you were getting the “right spots”! ❤❤❤😅
And the back leg trying to assist!
Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
8:32 that face? Lol that's ohhhh yes face lol
I live for finding my friends' pets little quirks or 'sweet spots'. I've had so many people think I'm some kind of wizard or psychic just because I pay attention to body language & sounds. Whether it's scratching ears, rubbing butts, baby talking...I have no shame in doing my best to befriend animals of all kinds ❤
YES! I noticed too. Such a cutie
Well, you know you're hitting the good spot when he immediately starts to scratch himself. What a well behaved, sweet dog. Handsome too.
My family used to call that the "Paddle point". :)
You have to admire the stealth raiding of the fridge and the intelligence it takes do so. 🤩
He looks great post his groom. Love your posts ❤️
What a big sweetheart. So patient and gentle.
Rest in peace, Kuma! :(
I love how he moves his head as if to say "Here. No here. More here". Then in one spot "Yes! That's it!"
I had no idea how I missed Kuma’s passing, I’m in tears now and that sweet boy will be so dearly missed ;;; ;;;
Sabre is such a sweetheart and I hope he’ll continue Kuma’s legacy of blow dryer love affair ❤
It's clear by this video, he most certainly will! Kuma will be missed. Poor Yumi..Kuma loved her so much! 😢💓💗❤️
It was under a community post on her main channel a month ago it seems :(
My first dog was a parvo survivor, too. His litter of 9 was thrown away in the garbage and the garbage man found them. Sadly my pups brothers and sisters all passed away. Thankfully he survived ($3000 later and several overnights at the vet) and had a long, happy life.
Deepest condolences about Kuma.
I really hope Yumi has been doing well ever since Kuma’s passing. 😢
The full-body-shake-off in the shower. You know it's coming, but even so it never stops being unexpected and funny. What a sweetheart of a dog.
Sooooo true!
I had 1 lab/aussie mix, that we could tell..."No, not yet, don't shake" and she would hold off until we could pull a shower curtain across...then we would tell her to "Shake, shake, shake." It worked with her, but, our other dogs, not even a little bit.
I love the way Vanessa always tells them "no! don't shake!" and they absolutely never cooperate.
Ah, an American Akita with the Japanese Akita coloring.
If his nose was bright pink and his snout a little longer, he'd look exactly like my Callie!
We lost her a year ago this September.
She was one of a kind.
I whistle-trained her so instead of speaking a command like "sit" or "guard", I'd just whistle a certain way and she knew what she had to do.
My family lost their minds when I showed them all the things she could do.
Smartest dogs on Earth!
With the smartest owner on earth
He didn't make a sound or even move (except for scratching when blowdryed 😆)
He is such a very good boy 🥰
Saber is an absolute angel of an Akita! Good breeding combined with excellent socialization and it shows!
With having parvo, he probably interacted with LOTS of people doing many uncomfortable things to him. Sweet tolerant baby 💛 R.I.P Kuma
I love when the pets love the dryer! It's the cutest thing....and may Kuma rest in peace! He was a sweet dog and a good boy!
While in the shower getting fluffed up, he looked like a bowl of meringue for a lemon pie! "He's SO FLUFFY!"......great groom too! love the furnado!
RIP Kuma. Sorry to hear & God bless his family.
Saber is a sneaky refrigerator opener! That’s a skill. So smart. The head on Akitas is so impressive-massive and chunky. He’s a cool dog. 😊
Kuma died!? Nooooooooo! That makes me so sad! I loved that "I don´t give a darn" faced dog! Rest in peace sweet boy!
He opens fridges because he knows that that's where humans keep the _good_ stuff! 😉 What a sweet, gorgeous gentleman~🥰
Kuma is chasing bunnies (and at his size, probably trucks and moose!) on the other side of the Rainbow Bridge, but he's left us a good boi who loves the blow dryer just as much as he did!
May Kuman's family find peace💖
What a stunning boy he is. Very relaxed and calm. I can't believe what a gentleman Sabre was. Good for the breeder, his owners and Good for you, Vanessa, for having such a well-mannered client.❤
Sabre is a beauty. . So sorry to hear that Kuma passed away . May his owners get through their grief of losing him
I'm so sorry for Kuma's loss. All our best thoughts to his family, and thank you all for sharing him with us. He will be missed.
Saber is adorable and has such a sweet temperament. Clearly another Akita that loved the blow dry process 😂❤ Rest well sweet Kuma 💔❤
Rest in peace beautiful Kuma
I miss Kuma :( But all good pups go to heaven and this guy is a sweetie
I had a priest tell me dogs don't go heaven because they don't have a soul. I told him if you believe that you won't be in heaven because neither do you. 😊
@@dyanmaust4254 Oh no, you just angered the Zealots
*Fight and survive well*
@@dyanmaust4254couldn’t agree more (with you)
A perfect ambassador for his breed (and his breeding and training). Also, absolutely gorgeous!
What a wonderful pleasant Akita.... really unsual for an Akita..usually very reserved and often aloof...Somebody REALLY socialized and loves this dog....I'm probably not giving Sabre enough credit!....This was a treat to watch!!! ❤
Love that the cheeky boy opened the fridge door 🤣🤣🤣 He looks like he’s in heaven and having a wonderful pamper day ❤
Had no idea American Akitas were available in this _colorway._ Maybe the most beautiful dog I’ve ever seen!
Right? There's a breeder near me who never has pups which are so light-colored. Japanese Akitas do have this colorway quite often. I think Sabre is from a more-recently imported bloodline than Kuma was.
Saber reminds me of Hachiko, the famous Japanese Akita who died waiting for his owner (who died tragically).
@@hzenn5516 omg you're right he does look a lot like Hachiko!
Why did you say _colorway?_ What’s wrong with just _color?_ And why is it in italics?
@@maddockemerson4603 _whoosh._
He's so cute ❤ Like a fluffy golden marshmallow.
Love love love the way Saber leans towards the blow dryer, as if saying: " yep...that's the spot...a bit more..perfect!"🥰
I love when you start blow drying and they do the leg scratch like "awee that's the spot"
Saber is beautiful! I'm glad he's keeping Kuma's traditions alive. ❤
I had a bit of fear when it came to akitas after horrible bite and septic infection I received from an under socialized akita, Kuma helped me move passed that and reinforce for me that it really is up to the owner and not the breed. RIP sweet Kuma ❤
NOOOO sweet Kuma. Such a well behaved boi :( But this toasted marshmellow looks like he will be perfect to continue the legacy!
Wow! That's a LOT of blown undercoat! He looks like a field of dandelion seeds released by a strong wind! 😂❤
Saber is such a sweet baby but I also cackled at the face he made when you asked him "what do you have in your mouth?" xD
May Kuma rest in peace and I am heartbroken that such a sweet boy is gone so suddenly ;-;
His face expression at 8:32 is so funny😂 What a lovely dog ❤
My American Akita loves the groomer so much! Makes me happy to see you openly welcome them since lots of professionals see them as a red flag x
We lost our Kuma, a Japanese akita, back in 2017. He was a big ol lovebug to those in his pack, and I miss him every day. Rest in peace to all our little bear cubs. 😭
Edit to add: When you have an akita who has trouble standing, it's best practice to lay them on their side to work on their paws/claws. That way not only are you letting the dog rest, you have more control if they start trying to fight you on it.
Kuma passed on his blow drying loving ways onto this sweet boy!
What a beautiful Akita. I've never seen one that color.
So sorry to Kuma's family for their loss - all my love out to them.
Sabre is a beautiful pup.
I love that as soon as you started the dryer he got his "good spot" kickies going. Such a good boy!
These past couple furnados are the only snow I get here for the holidays in WA state. Thanks, dogs!! Happy holidays!!
...Vanessa, too. 😊
Comfort to Kuma's family.🐾🌈 And Sabre is a fantastic boy! 😍
Spot on about Sabre. One of the most behaved Akitas for a 2 hr bath and grooming. Your knowledge of the breed made it a great experience for him. Good job.
So sad about Kuma, his affair with the blowdryer has been epic! Saber is such a sweet boy and he is so beautiful, especially after blowing that much coat. I am glad he also likes the blowdryer just as much. 😊
What an absolutely beautiful dog. 💙
As a wildlife photographer that is currently in Thailand working with elephants, I find these videos of smaller species to be quite pleasant lol.
Enjoy that work for the rest of us! 😍 🐘 Safe travels. 🙏
Imagine *that* groom job...
😂😂 first time I've heard Akita and small in the same sentence 💖
You’re living the dream, buddy.
@@lulumoon6942 Thanks 😊 🐘
Love him, he was so thoroughly enjoying the blow-dry and brushing process. What an absolute sweetie :)
We had a Golden Retriever/Akita mix when our children were young. 125 pounds of perfection. He was Saber’s color, without an aggressive bone in his body. I still miss him.
Oh my goodness I just LOVE the Akita. Powerful, majestic, hilarious, and absolutely loveable when properly trained. Saber is such a good boy!😁
Sad to hear about Kuma. He was my favorite. His puppies were adorable.
Exceptional Akita!
As always, thank you for your educational information. As a former vet tech, educating people is the way to my heart. I have to hope that it reaches through and makes a difference for other fur babies out there.
he must have some amazing pawrents cause he was so very well behaved and his coat looks so very well maintained in spite of him being dirty xD
we love to see dogs with super responsible pawrents
RIP Kuma, Sabre what a stunning dog. Well mannered. Totally a credit to his owners. 🐾❤️🐾
I think he might be a Golden Retriever in an Akita costume. What a friendly fellow!
Maybe he's just happy he survived his puppyhood and enjoys life as much as he can. Parvo is brutal.
Saber is a sweet, gorgeous boy.
He honors Kuma with his kindness.
lol love that face ... just screams "oh yea, that's the spot.. don't stop" 8:30 😅.. Sad to hear about Kuma, he was a beautiful dog and kindred spirit. Watching him opened my eyes to the breed. They are beautiful dogs and now considering getting one.
I absolutely love your videos! I have trimmed my own little dogs for the last, ohhh, almost 60 years, have picked up tricks from professional groomers, and am happily learning new tips from you! Your approach to dealing with critters you don't know is phenomenal! If I was not so stinking' allergic to shampoos and dander, I would have groomed as a profession. You and your clients make me smile every time I see you, and I thank you for that! Merry Christmas! ❄⛄🎄⛄❄💕💕
The return of the American Akita! Kuma will always be the best, but I will have to keep my heart open to others.
Kudos to you Vanessa for your intuitive sense of what each individual soul needs when they come into your umbrella of care.
There is a special place in heaven for the gentle giant Kuma. RIP❤
He's such a freaking cutie. His coat, his temperament, everything about him is just perfect. Makes me so jealous, I wish I could get another dog.
"again", I'm DEAD 🤣 the blow dryer must be something SPECIAL!
Used to have a rotty who would run into the bathroom to be blow dried when I did my hair. He also loved the grooming dryer and the shop air hose. Best dog ever.
@vickymassey1479 that sounds so freaking adorable, I CAN'T!! 🥹🥹
He's so handsome! You did a great job as usual.
Saber is hilarious 😂😂 pretty sure the chewing was a distraction for the hooman to forget about his paw 😂 and he looks all like - you got me all wet and heavy and im not allowed to pout??
So glad beautiful Saber survived Parvo. He looks like such a love.
he is such a beautiful doggie. Akitas are showstoppers when you see them in person. they are HUGE
You can see the smiles. Like ohh yeah lady that’s the spot.
Hes sooo beautiful, his big chunky paws aw
AW KUMA QWQ
Rest in peace, you big lovely bear of a dog
He is beautiful, smart and so sweet. The care taken with him was fantastic!
He’s a pretty boy! Glad he did well with grooming! Seemed kinda sweet!❤❤❤
He is a perfectly toasted marshmallow ❤😂
=( Kuma. Loved watching his grooms. Heart goes out to his persons.
When I got a lab mix puppy (90's) I took her to that new pet store that let you take your pets inside. The next day, my psycho puppy did nothing but sit on the couch. Called the vet, got in right away. She had Parvo, perhaps from the pet store. Had to take her in to the vet for the next 4-5? days for an IV. She survived, but it was very scary few days.
❤Rest in peace Kuma❤
He is absolutely a stunning specimen of his breed! The fact that he's a love bunny just makes him that much more incredible!!!
That grin on his face when you were drying his neck... PRICELESS!!! 🤣
First, also love these videos! Also just heard that Kuma died :(. He was such a good boy. I know he didn't like many people, but he trusted you so much.
RIP Kuma, i still search for his videos specifically to see his handsome face and to see him being so gentle for our favourite groomer❤
His handles do an amazing job caring for him! What a lean, healthy, good-tempered boy!! Good job, Saber!
We had an Akita and I would brush her every other day and she loved it, her name was Boots Marie everyone loved her. She was 18 years old when she walked over the rainbow 🌈 bridge 😢😢
He's a worthy sucessor to Kuma! How sad to hear from his passing. my condolences.
He’s just beautiful…and that fur was FLYIN!
Lol..I absolutely love his expressions when you hit those ahhhh spots ❤ Hes so sweet and I'm sorry about Kuma 😢...but at least you have a very special new friend now. He is beautiful and he looks soft as velvet ❤
Saber is just STUNNING! His fur looks just like lightly toasted marshmallow!❤ Beautiful boy!👍🏽🐶
