Are you ready to get a bath?
Are you nice?
Are you stinky?
If you've answered yes to any of these questions, your name is Zeus and you're a Pomeranian,
and it's time for a bath.
Come here.
See how he reacts to water for the first time?
So I'm going to put this through his little arm.
Look at his little head.
Look at him. Like, that's not real.
It's okay. You're stinky bear.
I've got to get your face.
Ballerino.
I've got to get your face. I'm sorry.
It's okay. I know. I know.
He looks like one of those dancing bears.
Look at his face.
One more time.
Good boy.
Yes, you're getting clean.
He hates it.
But kind of loves it.
Stinky tush. Stinky tush tush.
Good boy. You're a good boy.
That feels good. You can tell from this warm, cozy water.
I'm soaking wet.
We're all having fun. We're all having fun today.
Hi. I'm having a blast.
Help me.
It's over.
Okay.
We did it. We all did it.
He's okay. He's clean.
You did great.
I could just watch this for hours.
We have a judge.
He's so passionate.
He's so funny.
I'm going to start blow drying him.
I'm going to do it without the pins because he's starting to growl.
If you notice a dog is trying to maybe growl a tiny bit,
flip the brush like this just for a bit, just to gain their trust.
And then I'm going to just be really gentle.
He's fully matted.
We got this. We can do it.
Now I'm just holding it and just separating it, building trust.
He's in a hand hammock right now.
This is a wild one.
I'm going to have no reaction, and I'm going to be as gentle as I can
and just show him that there's nothing he can do to stop it.
The worst thing I could do would be to have a big reaction.
That would be the worst thing I could do.
You're doing so great.
He's almost dry.
Yeah, it's not terrible, but she does have a very thick coat on her hands.
I would say he should come in every week.
He's mostly just threatening. He's not really doing anything.
Can I turn him to face the dryer?
Yeah, while you hold his butt.
He's so nice. He's so nice.
I just have to get him to like the brush.
Good boy. Good boy.
He's a good boy.
Don't stop caring about me now.
Working.
You're not getting over him.
I'm just holding him.
Are you ready for, ready for
A perfect start, perfect start.
Working.
Cause once you're mine, once you're mine, there's no going back.
It's working.
This is crazy. Anytime we sing Dark Horse to this dog, he stops biting.
It's working.
It's actually working.
It's insane.
And the mats are coming out, you guys.
Yay!
But like, it probably is uncomfortable for him.
So he's probably like, ow, you're hurting me.
Oh, sorry. He didn't like that.
Sorry, baby.
Good boy. Good boy.
Yeah, he's, he's getting over it.
I just have to get these mats around his face.
Good boy.
Yay, good boy.
Good boy.
So sweet.
Good boy.
It's like right under here.
Good boy.
Heads up, I have to shave a little mat right there.
Sorry.
It's okay for him.
Good boy.
You forgive her.
I love my little one. I love my little one.
Look at him.
It is worth it to get ear rubbing.
Will you hold him up for me so I can get his belly?
Good boy.
Oh, boy.
He's doing great.
Good boy.
Oh, he's so good.
He's so sweet.
Anything you want in his life.
Okay, let's see if we can do behind his ears.
Got it.
It's blowing in the wind.
Just have to look for this mat.
Here it is.
Can you hold that for me?
Okay.
It's hard.
It's like finding a needle in a haystack.
Okay, got it.
I'm so glad I meditated today.
I'm so chill.
Like nothing's phasing me.
I don't know how, but I'm just fine.
I think it's because you're here and you're like really doing a lot with me.
That's what I'm here for.
I just feel so supported.
Will you move his body towards me?
Why don't you just say that?
I'm really going to be careful not to snag anything.
God forbid.
I have a very light touch.
God forbid.
We got most of it out.
There's still a tiny bit, but with a behavior like this,
it's like I just want to set him up for a lifetime of not hating it.
Especially a palm is going to need a lot of grooming.
Yeah.
I guess he will kick more when he's lifted.
I mean, I'll do his little feet.
Good boy.
Oh my God.
He's like athletic.
No, he actually is.
He's like a marshmallow.
Exactly.
Sorry, you guys.
I have to take this.
Hello.
It's my job.
I know he's like a cat.
I want to bite it so bad.
You don't realize how much it does until you see them compare.
I know.
Pretend the camera is Zeus' foot.
What would you do?
That's helpful.
Is that good?
He's squeaking.
Squeaking.
It's the national language of Pomerania, actually.
Is it?
I believe it.
Squeaking.
Dental slime.
Look at you.
You're tiny.
Sniffy sniffy.
This dog is bringing something out of us.
He truly looks like a lion.
But mixed with a bear.
Okay.
Accessory time.
Wow, you're so beautiful.
Yes.
Yes, this works.
Do we like this color?
I love it.
That's so nice.
You did so great.
You did such a great job.
Wow.
Yay.
Hello.
Okay.
My masterpiece.
And Lily also.
Our masterpiece.
Yay.
Thank you for watching.
Have a great day.
