Some dogs are reactive at the groomers due to fear. Fear and stress can be observed by some signs including lip smacking, panting, trembling, rapid eye movement, and a few others. In Max's case he has no signs of stress or fear. This tells me that Max believes he is the main character, and anyone and everyone should comply to his wants. Sometimes young doggos need a firm verbal "no" to teach them boundaries in the grooming salon. This type of behaviour needs to be worked on at home with the owner and possibly a trainer if necessary. I do believe Max made progress today and will only get better with time. He is very young still, and his owner is a first time dog owner. They are both still learning!

@@SilverFlame819 I meant the “outsmarts us” as a joke, an exaggeration. But he is certainly not brainless. He is intelligent. He picks up behaviours quickly and responds to handler’s emotions and tensions. Basically, if you’re anxious, he’ll be anxious. If you’re confident, he will realise he hasn’t actually got anything to worry about. But as with any dog, he needs boundaries, and needs someone to tell him (for example) that just because he has 6 foot of leash, he can’t ignore the human on the other end of it. He thrives on consistency and walks all over my parents because they let him get away with behaviours that I do not.

My neighbor had a sweet little miniature pinscher, and this 3 year old girl had never been to a groomer. Her new owner gave her a spa day and she looked wonderful. Great job ❤

My daughter and I noticed with our dogs the words used and tone are important to get best results in behaviour. “No” doesn’t set “good dog feelings”. Tone is everything. 😊❤

Judgment, and perhaps, but when the doggo is taking a chunk of your arm, we’d see how accepting you are of the owner’s ability to train.

@@MahiMahi-yu5jo sometimes they don't just grow out of it. It's really irresponsible to assume that if you leave the problem alone then the problem will just "go away". I'm a dog groomer too, and I've seen plenty of older dogs act this same way. If it isn't addressed then THOSE dogs become the ones that need to be taken to a vet and heavily sedated because they become a hazzard to anyone who touches them.

Compliments on your very quick reflexes.

I have two cocker spaniels and they are very sweet even during grooming. They are also very intelligent, although can suffer from selective hearing at times 🤣

My female cocker spaniel shizu mix (misspelled), clinks her bowls when empty, looks blankly at me if she doesn't want to go outside to potty, sits guard at the edge of my bed every night, and guards me all day, greets me at the door with a toy when I get home. What more could a good doggie give?

We always had really smart cockers! One even removed my Mom's hair pins to her curlers while she slept to make sure she stayed home LOL Also had a really awesome cockapoo. I loved him very very much and he was such a good boy for his grooms, too.

My Cocker Spaniel was incredibly smart. Hearing "brainless" was really surprising to me. I just assumed they were a super intelligent breed since she was. Sandy was my first dog and only Cocker Spaniel I ever had, but she taught me how to train animals and I'll always love her ❤

My twin sister and I had two purebred cocker spaniels. One of them was for sure brainless, very sweet and kind names Rosey. However, my runt of the litter Tiger Lily was definitely not brainless. She was feisty and fierce, and she more than once barked her head off at and wanted to fight our neighbors GSD K-9 unit named Brent. My dad is a retired cop but back then his K9 friend lived next door. She would bite me if she didn’t want anything to to do with me, but she always laid at the end of my bed at the end of the day and never stopped protecting me. I miss her so much, rip Lily.

Actually Cockers are the opposite, they are highly intelligent but extremely STUBBORN.

Tail wags and kisses and absolutely adorable..

He looked beautiful after his grooming ❤ thank you for your firm 💘 love.

You made him sooooo cute! Who’d have believed he was so naughty at the beginning!! Look at that adorable face!

That is EXACTLY the type of dog the owners bring in saying "He's the sweetest dog, he never gives us any problems!" Also, cockers were eeeeeasily my least favorite dog to groom. Without fail, every one of them would crap either while bathing, or while drying. I know "hate" is a strong word, but, I certainly hated seeing one in the books.

Look how good you look Max! Trust the process!

Such a petty cut! He looks so adorable at the end.

"is there any other kind?" My cockapoo was the most mild tempered sweetie pie, so calm and cuddly her name was Lovebug, Lovey for short ❤️

I was about to ask if we just had a super rare smart one when I was younger 😂. My sister & I trained him to do all kinds of things, his favorite was jumping on the trampoline. We also taught him to answer the phone, and would often come home from school to find the house phone off the hook - so I often wondered who called to only be greeted by a barking dog 😂.

You are a very good groomer and a trainer. You know when to reward him and when not to reward him.

Thank god there's a groomer that is honestly showing what some dogs can be like in the groomers ! A lot of groomers would not do this dog, well done to you for showing how to deal with him ,next time he'll have a bit more respect.

I had a cockerpoo growing up. Got her when I was 2 and had her until I was 17. Best dog ever ❤❤

You are so good with dogs! I'm happy the troubled ones have someone like you to help.

Dang I’m offended she called a cocker spaniel brainless and I don’t even have a cocker spaniel. My neighbours had one when I was a kid growing up, Lady, so sweet and kind. Gentle. Always wanted one growing up.
