Just found the channel. My rescued 14yo Border Collie recently passed. Seeing the distinguish and handsome Mr. Hennessey brought a happy tear to my eye. His warnings when you got near his face were pure Border Collie! Keep up your great work.

Oh my goodness, I swear that blowout defied the law of conservation of matter because it seemed like more fur was materializing as you went on! Very satisfying to watch

Even the dog is looking at that furnado and thinking "what the heck!?!"

Love seeing senior doggos get all cleaned up and looking great. Hope Hennesey is living his best golden years.

I've had Boarder Collies my whole life and a well groomed Collie is gorgeous! My "now" Collie would be in heaven in that furnado! He's the only dog I've ever known that's not interested in outdoor toys but loves to throw leaves, grass and fur balls in the air and do back flips trying to catch them!

Hennessy is 1 adorable well-behaved pup. Wonder how many of him you could make from all that under coat.

Hennessy is very sweet and well behaved. I love how he was watching his fur fly around. Vanessa you made him so handsome,great groom.♥️🐾

Hennessy is one good looking older gentleman! What a good dog he was to go thru all that without much fuss. He is truly an adorable good boy!

I would love to see his hooman's reaction. He looks like a whole new dog.

As someone who has both huskies and border collies, WOW. That transformation was insane and gorgeous What a handsome old boy.

What a sweet dog. We have a 13 year old border collie and my son has a husky. I can’t imagine a combination of that😆

You know that the furnado is going to be epic when she just pulls gigantic clumps out while drying them! Good work. And sublime doggie who deserves nothing but treats, treats, and maybe a good nap.

I was sick and had to go to urgent care, and I saw you on the TV in the waiting room! What a wonderful thing to see when I was in need of a pick me up! I remember you said once that when the hair balls stick to the fur like that, it means the dog was shaved in the past and their undercoat is damaged. I wonder if this happened to this kind boy? Another wonderful groom!

@imdone8645

i think it could just be due to his older age and hil having such thick undercoat, so its harder to come out

I LOVE this dog. My "soul-mate" is a Samoyed dog that I had the priviledge of owning from 1981-1995. His name was "Booka" and I miss him every single day. Since "Booka", I have owned Shetland Sheepdogs, one of whom was another soul-mate. (They are similar to Border collies...) In this video, I KNOW that the grey undercoat that is shedding out is from the sled-dog side of his family! Watching this makes me miss "Booka" even more

This is like when a man finally shaves his bushy beard, this collie looks like a whole different individual after transformation of grooming.

Wow! I love when you pull the wild fur out...so satisfying.

My daughter had a babysitter, years ago who had a 'rust-red' chow. My daughter would sit with that dog in the spring and just pick the cream color 'blown coat' off of her, handfuls of it every day. The sitter always paid my daughter with homemade cookies, and the dog paid her with sloppy kisses.

You know its gonna be a good one when the coat comes out in CHUNKS 😂😂 his coat just kept coming out

This one session would make an epic snow globe..... Guess it needs to be added to the top 10 for next time because wow!!!!

I love border collies! We had one my brother rescued. We called her Lady and she was the most intelligent dog I’ve ever been around. Since my brother had passed away, I was with her until the end. What a noble dog she was.

When he saw his fur flying he was like "Wait a minute! That is mine. I need that!"

Hennessy is a stunner! 💕How handsome! Some mixed breeds just look so gorgeous. Whew! What a furnado! 🌪️🐕‍🦺 🙌🏻

He's dreamy! You did a great job with his make over. Having previous experience with a Husky and a Border Collie, a Broder Collie-Husky mix would be my worst nightmare. Border Collies are super smart defy ers of the laws of physics and nature...and Huskies are escape artists with stamina for days. All that talent balled up in one dog is exhausting. I bet Hennessey was something else in his youth!

STELLAAAAA! Whoa! 😳 This dog is named Hennessy, which is very close to Tennessee, as in Tennessee Williams, the author of A Streetcar Named Desire, which has a character named Stella.

Wow! Huge difference and while the furnado was happening he looked so happy it was coming off! Such a handsome gentleman. His face while you were combing it was rather funny. Don’t think he would have bitten you. I believe it was all for show but you can’t be too sure. ❤

my eyes itched just watching that furnado!

I miss by Border Collie. She was a pure bred working line with 4 generations of dame and sire AKC champions in agility and herding. She was the runt of the litter when I purchased her from an older certified AKC breeder in Pacific Palisades, Ca. I was her Charlie Brown and she was my Snoopy. She didn't do well herding and wasn't as fast as other dogs in the ball relay, but she was agile beyond all belief, could climb and could jump my 8ft tall gate to my backyard in one try. She waited until I got home from work before taking her last breath and passing at my feet. The best and most loved companion a man could ask for.

OMG!!! Thank you for one of the most enjoyable furnados!!!! ❤ You’re the best!! (Best part is pulling off the blowing fur)! LOL!

It amazes me to see how much fur is stuck, hidden, found, discovered and ultimately removed during these furnados! I bet he felt great after all that! Bravo 👏

It's not just grooming, it's a bath in the fountain of youth! I want some too.

Border collie and husky... holy cow! His owners must have had to keep him busy when he was younger! Probably the best dog on earth if you know what you're doing, though. That was a LOT of fur! And I love how carefully he warned you about brushing his face, what a good boy!

Definitely 10 years younger, 10 pounds lighter and so beautiful! What a nice old man. I am sure with his breed combination he was quite the handful in his days.

You seem to have such a way of gently grooming all your clients dogs and cats. And sometimes do great volunteer work on strays with fleas. I recently saw the flea bath post when you were in Florida. You couldn't clip his murder mittens because he needed them for defense. Great job.😊
