Why do we breed animals to need such coat care? That's quite an ordeal every month during the season. I know Girl with the Dogs does a good job, but it's hard on her and the dog.

the fact that she was so friendly and good during the brushing which she clearly did not like... amazing dog, what a sweet girl.

Shiloh Shepherds are a recognized breed of dog that originated in the United States. They were developed in the 1970s by Tina Barber, who aimed to create a large and gentle shepherd breed similar to the German Shepherd but with a calmer temperament. Shiloh Shepherds are known for their intelligence, loyalty, and versatility. Regular grooming is an essential part of caring for a dog's coat and overall health, so it's excellent that your Shiloh Shepherd was cooperative during the process. Good girl!

I love that you never shame the owners in these videos and instead express your understanding that different dog breeds, personalities, experiences (my dog has never even seen a pond lol) leads to different challenges to keeping them clean, healthy, & happy.

My retriever, lab, shepherd mix had gorgeous flowing black fur. She looked like a flat-coated retriever with a face that was less heavy. Turned into a lanky drowned rat when we bathed her. This was the 90's and early 2000's. Never went to a groomer. Instead we had to brush her out and had to vacuum the entire first floor of the house EVERY FREAK'N DAY. XD But she was worth every second of it. She took it upon herself to be our nanny dog and would herd us closer to the house and if we were up to no good she would TELL ON US! 20 years later and I miss her every day.

I've meet one Shiloh Shepard...I thought his name was Shiloh and they were just introducing him funny. My friend tried to explain to me they were exclusive, rare, and expensive and I told her "Shiloh looks just like Felix" Felix was the family long-haired German Shepherd. Everyone acted like I slapped the lady, now I know why 😂 Kids will humble anyone

They are both fabulous, sweet dogs. We also have a 15-year-old cat and they are wonderful with her. We highly recommend Shilohs and think they are the best dogs we’ve had.

Excellent comment 😊

The worst part, after 3 hours at the groomer, she probably didn’t last an hour before she went swimming and undid all that work. But, she is so sweet, she would be forgiven! 💕

She's so good natured! Even when you were brushing out the most matted bits and it was clearly painful for her, she didn't snap at you or anything.

Shilohs are the best dogs!!! Wish we lived closer. I’d love to have you groom Kojak. You’d adore him.

I love dogs with mismatched ears, they always look so goofy. And what a gorgeous breed, her coat looks so soft and fluffy ❤

Behold! The new fuzzy wall decor! We did a Shiloh Shepherd at our shop, she was sweet as well. The backing up, sitting and tap dancing was exactly her thing too! We always had to sharpen our de tangler before doing her

You keep teaching me about so many shepherd breeds I’ve never heard of, and now I want to start a collection of shepherds 😂 thank you for being so good with the fluff balls you work with!

She practically changed color from before to after! I know you were tired by the time you finished brushing her. Bless your heart.

4:48 my cat demands hugs for moral support when he’s getting a bath. He’ll wrap his front legs around whatever part of you he can reach and cling. Luckily he knows not to use his claws.

Willow is beautiful and so sweet. She deserves so much praise and treats.

Omgosh...Willow after she was towel dried and on the grooming table is the cutest!

She’s absolutely beautiful at the end. I love the way her ears are different and the head tilt 😊

Omg, Czech Wolfdog? That explains a LOT about why the Shiloh's so chill and have great personalities. The Czech Wolfdogs are freaking WONDERFUL. I highly suggest folks to go read up on them!

1) My dog would never shake off all the water until AFTER I removed her from the tub. I always had to keep a giant towel on hand to drape over her just to keep the room from getting soaked. 2) I wish I knew about those nozzle washer things when I still had my dog. It's difficult to try and rinse an uncooperative 80 lbs. Rottweiler Sheppard mix with a handheld shower head.

I rescued a dog that was never groomed and was matted from the top of his head to the tip of his tail. The vet said he was approximately 6 years old and it looked like he had never been groomed. They shaved him and he was so happy. Also, never use scissors to cut a mat that's down to the skin off a dog or cat. It will cut their skin and require stitches from the vet. Use a grooming shaver the way she does.
