I really, really, really, really, really hope this works.
I feel like every single time I start a live stream, that's how it starts.
I really, really, really hope this works.
Let's see if it works.
Let me type in chat. Is it working?
Is it working? We're going a little bit more
advanced than I have in the past. Just a little bit.
See, we have this view, and then there's this
view, where you get to see me twice, apparently, because that's a thing.
And you get to see all the dogs. So you get to see all the dogs, but you get to see me twice.
So is it working? Can you hear me? Are we good
to go? Everybody's saying hello. Yes, it works. We are good to
go. What is up, everybody? This is weird. Normally
I have to look over there and see that camera, but today I decided to try something a little
bit different and also use this camera, so you guys could actually see me
as well, a little bit better. So, I don't know.
You're going to have to tell me if you like this better or not.
If you are new to this channel, welcome! My name is Jess. This is Memphis.
This is Shelby. That is Oakley. Oh, you want to play?
We're Gone To The Snow Dogs and today is basically our
live stream Q&A. What we do here, is we answer questions from you guys
down in the comments. You can leave a question. If you do a super chat, all super chat questions
are answered first. So like, if you choose to do a super chat to support the
channel, those questions will get answered before the other questions. We try to answer as many questions
as we can, but as always, if you can't currently see the chat,
which was the other thing I wanted to add to this stream, but didn't end up doing today.
The chat goes really fast, so I do tend to miss questions, so you can always
try to ask again. Yeah!
I think those are the only things...
Shelby! I think the only real announcement that we
had for today was...
I think the only real announcement we had for today was
we now have our own Amazon store front. If you guys haven't seen that yet,
it's kind of cool. We've been adding lots of products that we actually use for the dogs
down in the video description below, underneath where it says, support our channel.
There is a link to our Amazon shop and it is an affiliate link,
so if you purchase anything through there, it doesn't cost you anymore, but it does help us out
a little bit. And it's... I'm still adding a lot of things to it. It's still very new.
Eventually I'm going to be able to break things down into categories and stuff, so we'll be able to put more
like slow feed bowls and food and treats and toys and
hopefully eventually it will be something really cool that we can build. So it will be kind of like a
store front where if you guys want to buy stuff that we use, that's a place
where you can do it. Now, before we even get any further
I'm going to answer the question that everybody asks over and over and over in the live stream.
No, I haven't finished my FAQ video yet. That wasn't the question. The question is,
how old are all the dogs? Memphis is the grey and white dog that you see right there and
she is four years old. Oakley is the black and white dog that you see right there and she is
about thirteen years old. And then Shelby who is laying right here, Shelby is
nine years old but she will actually be turning ten in less than a month.
This girl right here will be turning ten years old in less than a month.
She is going to have a birthday video just like we've done in the past for all the other dogs.
So if you want to send her a card, a letter, a drawing, a package or something
to go into Shelby's birthday video, our P.O. Box is always listed in the video
description down below. It's Gone to the Snow Dogs P.O. Box 12
Alpena, Michigan 49707. If you want to send her something, that's where
you can do that. I think I have all the announcement things
done. Oh and for anybody asking where Jamie is? He's probably down in the
comments somewhere because he helps me moderate the chat a lot of the times when we do this.
Did I do all that right? Did I say it right? I don't have a spirit hood on because
it's hot. Normally when I do these, I have my spirit hood on. I feel a little strange but
it's been hot so I don't have it on.
Somebody said, I wish Super Chat was free for Q&A. If you aren't paying attention, you can still
ask questions. You don't only get your question answered by doing a Super Chat.
If you choose to do a Super Chat, those questions get answered first.
How long have you been YouTubing?
Freddy Fazbear says.
This channel, we've been active on this channel since
November 29th of 2009.
My first YouTube channel, I started in 2006.
Way back when YouTube first started. The things I uploaded there were
just basically videos to share with friends and things like that.
It wasn't really like a channel channel.
The vlogging channel, we've been doing since 2011.
A long time. Definitely a long time.
Wheelie Girl, thank you for the Super Chat says. Do you ever think of what Oakley
might have been like as a puppy or as a young adult? What do you think she would be like?
We have kind of thought about that in the past.
Like what Oakley would actually be like as a puppy.
Oops, I'm turning this the wrong way.
I think she would have definitely been a very fluffy puppy.
I don't know. She might have been kind of a crazy dog.
But she's not much of a crazy dog now. It's kind of hard to say.
It's kind of hard to say what type of dog she would have been.
Especially because her personality is so molded based on
the fact that she's been through so much in her life.
It's hard to say. I don't know. I do wish we had
pictures of her as a puppy and wish we knew more about her
if we had her as a puppy.
Oh, another thing I was going to tell you guys. If you didn't see it, over at YouTube.com
slash Snow Dogs Vlogs, which for those of you that may not know, that is our vlogging channel.
We put up a video today where we talked about Miss Shelby down here
getting her stitches out. As you can see, she got her stitches out.
We got home from the vet with Shelby after she got her stitches out.
We ended up having to take Oakley to the vet because Oakley has a sore under her eye
that was red. Jamie and I have been putting medicine on it and we've been
doing all... It's not like we haven't had dogs for a long time. Doing all the things you're supposed to do.
But it was still really wet red and her eye was leaking
so it kept staying wet and I was afraid she was going to have a fungal infection or a bacterial
infection or some type of infection on it. Long story short, we took Oakley
to the vet yesterday as well and it ended up
her tear duct is clogged basically.
She's on some medicine for that. If you want to know more about that, you can check that out
over there.
Did you and Jamie go to college? Yes! We both went to college.
I have an associates degree in business.
That's as far as I went.
There's my Shelby. Hi Shelby! Do you know why Shelby's pupils are
different sizes? Shelby's pupils aren't different sizes.
Shelby, will you look at the camera and show them your pupils aren't different sizes?
See? They're not different sizes. They're the same size.
Shelby's like, what are you doing?
So no, Shelby's pupils are not different sizes.
Did you rescue any of the dogs? Oakley, the black and white one is our rescue.
Did we find a place for the Shiloh Rock? Not yet. I'm not
sure where it's going to go. I thought about putting it out here by the fireplace, but I'm not
really sure yet. How do you do super chat? There's a little dollar sign down
at the bottom. I forgot to put that link. I usually put that link in the video description so you guys know how to do that.
Have you...
Stop going! Stop going so fast!
Alright, I got to click this and make it so I can read some of these.
If you were to get another Husky puppy, what gender would you get? I don't know.
It depends on how it works out. Has your dog
toilet papered your house before and how did you stop it? This one.
This one right here. It was even on the episode of Bad Dog.
This one right here. You tore up all the toilet paper.
We just shut the bathroom door so she couldn't get in there.
She did it when she was much younger, when she was a puppy.
How do your dogs react to dogs they don't know? They're usually pretty good.
The only one that's really ever iffy is again, Shelby.
Sometimes with small dogs she's very...
She can be very standoffish, but most of the time they do
really good with other dogs. For the most part.
Shelby's awake! Yes!
It's already getting warm in here and I just shut the air off.
Curly Productions! Any chance of visiting Tecumseh, Michigan?
I just want to hear you pronounce it again. Hey! I said it right this time though, right?
Tecumseh, Michigan.
Actually, speaking about
that, we are hopefully going
to be looking at a motorhome pretty soon here.
Is this... Did it freeze up? There we go.
There's a motorhome available for sale in our town
not far from where we're at that we actually went and looked at yesterday.
I'm hoping... I don't know if I'm going to go back today, but I want
to go look at it again and see. If we get a motorhome, hopefully we'll be able to do a lot more traveling.
Lucky The Shepsky says,
I'm an up and coming YouTuber and I love you guys! Aww! Thank you!
All the dogs look so tired! They're like, we're so tired!
Who is the best lead dog in sledding?
Ok! So, it used to be Shelby. When we had Shelby,
Shiloh and Oakley. Before Shiloh passed away, before we got Memphis, we had
Shelby, Shiloh and Oakley. Shelby used to be the
best when it came to being a lead dog, but when we got
Memphis, Shelby just decided that
she didn't want to be in front anymore. Shelby likes running next to somebody
and she pretty much had always run next to Shiloh
and then she ran next to Oakley, but she was the dog that when you would
tell them which way to go, Shelby was the one that knew. The first time I hooked them up on a sled
with Memphis, Memphis was eight months old, Shelby absolutely refused
to go, cause she was single. She was a single lead and I had Memphis and Oakley
next to each other. So, I switched them out and pretty much now it's Memphis.
Memphis pretty much does all the lead dog stuff and Shelby is now a
wheel dog, but it's nice cause she knows all the commands really well, so when Memphis turns
when I say, Harji, they both know which way they're going.
Jillian Strass, thank you for the super chat says,
how much exercise do the dogs get and do you think it's doable to own a husky
when you do not have a backyard for it? Thank you once again for the super chat.
I do think it's possible to have a husky
and not have a backyard, but you have to
understand that you are going to have to do a lot of exercise with your dogs
which can be biking. Biking is probably the best if you don't have a
backyard and you're able to bike with your dogs. It's probably one of the best ways to do it, cause you can go a long
distance. You can go for a long distance, you can get a lot of exercise in a short
amount of time. So, if you don't have a ton of time to actually do those things, you can wear the dog out
in a shorter amount of time. Hiking, agility, anything
like that can help get them exercise.
But if you live in an apartment or you live in a small space that doesn't have a
backyard, you're just going to have to understand that you're going to have to take your dogs out
possibly everyday and do something. We are fortunate enough to not only
have more than one dog, we have a big backyard so we can go out there, we can play with them
they can run around together. They get a lot of exercise in the backyard, but we also do take
them for walks and we take them for R.I.D.E.'s. Notice I didn't
spell walk, nobody reacted to that one. But yes, I do
think it's possible. Blaze Repeat, thank you for the super chat says,
you liked my tweet once and it made my day. Oh, well, you're welcome.
I try to go through and read all of the tweets that you guys send us.
Let's see what they are looking at. I think they are just looking out the window though.
Is Memphis' nose healed? Yes!
Her nose is actually healed. It's looking a lot better. Much better than it was.
How do the dogs react to laser pointers?
Shelby used to chase a laser pointer like crazy. Now, not so much.
Memphis absolutely loves a laser pointer. It's one of her favorite things.
Are you going to come to Toronto?
BufferFest is in Toronto and we kind of talked about going to Toronto for BufferFest,
but I think it falls the same week as VidSummit and I'm going to VidSummit
so I don't think we'll be coming to BufferFest in Toronto. I still have to look
because they might have moved it to November. Again, kind of has to do with that
whole motorhome thing. It's getting harder for us to travel those further distances
as the dogs get a little bit older. We're looking for a solution to that.
We're hoping that a motorhome could possibly be the solution.
While I'm talking about it, I'm going to throw it out there. Down in the video description below,
there's a link to our Patreon page. One of our goals for Patreon was
buying a motorhome once we hit a certain amount on Patreon.
If you guys want to go down there and maybe support that, you can. If not, that's cool too.
Just keep watching the videos and sharing them and that helps just as much.
Somebody said, I want to hear the story about when Memphis turned off the Xbox.
Our Xbox is right in there.
Our Xbox 360 and because it's a glass door...
What are you doing? What are you doing? Hi!
How's it going? You're too cute!
Because it has a glass door, we actually
open it when we use the Xbox so it doesn't overheat.
She just touched it with her nose. It's got that little touch button
thing on it. She just touched it with her nose and was able to shut it off.
Whoa! Memphis!
What is your next dog treat video?
You guys at the live show get to hear this first, I believe
Monday. A lot of you guys have asked for this and I believe we're going to do it on Monday.
We're going to do DIY slime for dogs.
Because a lot of you for some reason want us to do it and I'm pretty sure
I got it figured out to where it's slime that they can actually eat.
So, it's going to be interesting but possibly Monday we're going to do that.
If it doesn't work out, it will be something completely different.
Can you come to Utah? I was hoping to come to CVX Live in Utah and bring the dogs
but it's not going to work out this year. Hopefully we'll be able to do it for next year.
Hopefully! Sushi is another dog treat that is
on the list of dog treats we want to make. I wanted to make emoji cookies too
before the emoji movie comes out but that's going to be pushing it.
We'll find out if we'll be able to do that.
Are all Huskies the same and are all of them really active?
All Huskies are not the same and all of them are not always super active.
Shiloh was not a very active Husky at all. She could just pretty much
chill. She just wanted to sit with you and could care less about running
and all that stuff. She was a very chill Husky.
Some of them are super active and some of them just aren't.
Shelby and her favorite pose!
Tips on having more than one Husky?
Lots of patience! That's my biggest tip! Lots of patience!
Understand that it is harder to have more than one dog.
Every time you want to take them somewhere, now you got to take two, twice the vet bills,
twice the food, twice the cleanup, twice the fur. You could actually probably
quadruple the fur with two Huskies over one.
My biggest tips is just remember
that they can't read your mind and they don't come automatically trained.
Just have patience. Laugh at things in life because it's
totally worth it to laugh instead of be upset about things.
It really, really is. Let's see if we can get Oakley over here.
Hey Oakley! What are you doing?
What are you doing?
Get another dog! Eventually we'll get another dog.
We have done dog cupcakes before. Somebody just asked that down in the chat if we can do cupcakes.
We've done cupcakes before. Yes, we still go biking with our dogs
when it's not ridiculously humid outside.
What kind of phone do I have? I don't even know where it is.
I don't know where my phone is. I have a droid
something. Droid turbo. But I don't know
where it is.
Please do frozen honey treats. That would be interesting.
You want them to sing. Oh, look at Shelby.
Shelby, are you looking out the window? I got the window open because it's a little
bit cooler outside than it is inside. Even though it's still ridiculously humid.
Shelby! Shelby! Shelby! Shelby!
Shelby! You want to sing? Shelby!
You want to sing? She's like, I am watching the birds
guys. I'm watching the birds.
Have you been to Washington before? I've been to Washington D.C. I've never been to Washington State.
I hear you Memphis! Can you do DIY
dog toys? I've never really done DIY dog toys. It's not something we
really do, but I'm sure we could probably try it eventually.
Sing! Everybody wants you to sing.
Can you sing? Maybe she needs her note.
She needs her note.
Wrong note? This note? Sing! Sing!
Is that a good song?
Is that a good song? That was the best song ever!
There you go! Hey Shirley! Super chat in honor of Lily the
puppy who asks, what are your dogs favorite birthday toys?
Memphis' favorite birthday toy is that
singing birthday cake I got her from Amazon. She actually has two of those now.
Oakley's of course is anything raccoon.
Shelby really likes squeaky tennis balls. Although she hasn't been
playing with them too much lately, but I think that's because she's kind of running low on them.
Yeah? Is that what's going on?
That's what's going on?
Yeah?
We're going to wrestle? Look! You can actually wrestle because you don't have stitches
anymore! Yay! You can wrestle
because you don't have stitches anymore!
She's like, yeah!
They sound so vicious! They really sound
ten times worse than they actually are. I was at the vet's office
with Shelby the other day and Shelby was talking like that to another dog and this lady
is like, she's so mean! I'm like, no she's just talking.
Oh! Oh! Oh!
Oh! Yeah? Hi!
How's it going?
Hey! Can we do the live show? Can we do the live show?
Who's here? Go see!
There's nobody here yet. Greg's coming over in a little bit, but he's not
actually here yet.
Husky wrangling! What program do you use to edit? I use Corel.
A car just went by and backed up
backwards in front of our house. I use Corel Video Studio X9.
What kind of camera do I use? I don't have it sitting here.
I use the Canon G7X Mark II and the Canon G3X
and the GoPro Hero 5. The posters are coming!
Yes! If you ordered a signed and photograph
poster, they start shipping either today or the beginning of next week.
What did that one say? I saw that! There's a little super chat. What did it say?
Super chat from TCE! Happy 14th of July from France!
Thanks! Thanks for the super chat as well! Why did you originally get Huskies
and not any other dogs? It's pretty much just how it turned out.
I mean, we kind of talked about the long version of the story in the past, but
it's kind of just how it turned out. Will you ever visit
Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada? Also Tim Hortons for the win! We have a Tim Hortons!
It's 75 miles away from us. I would like to come to Canada.
Yes! I really would!
How much money have you spent on the dogs? Probably too much!
What does this one say? Whoa! Slow down! RustyMoo93, thank you for the
super chat! Says, I got my baby Husky a week ago. I know you got Memphis
Spade when she was young. What age do you recommend?
That? I've talked about this in the past. This is something
you should definitely talk to your vet about.
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
There are a lot of
differing opinions on when you should get a dog Spade.
Whether it has to do with age or weight or what not. It's definitely something
that I would talk to your vet about.
I can't hold the camera and do all the things at the same time.
What are you doing?
You're all crazy! Everyone is!
You're all crazy!
Hey! Hey!
Oh my goodness! What am I gonna do with you?
What am I gonna do with you?
Shelby! Shelby! Shelby!
Shelby! Would you stop starting it?
Shelby! Who's here?
Are you gonna fall for that every time?
Anyway! The age and stuff of getting your dog Spade,
talk to your vet about it. I don't even remember how old Memphis was
when she did it. She had to be a certain age and a certain weight.
Shelby! For real! Who's here?
Who's here? Who's here? Go see!
Apparently that works to make them stop being crazy for five seconds.
I don't know!
You crazy puppies!
Baking treats for the dogs. How's Shelby doing? Can you tell?
How's Shelby doing? How does she look like she's doing? She's great!
She got her stitches out and she's allowed to play. So, she's going crazy!
She's absolutely going crazy!
Hold on! Do me a favor guys! Don't put your phone numbers and addresses in the comments.
I know we kind of talked about this a little bit before, but just don't do that!
It's not... You shouldn't do that! Don't put your phone numbers and addresses
in the comments of any videos, including mine and other people's.
Your parents should be teaching you that.
Shelby, calm down! Right? Shelby, calm down!
Shelby's crazy! She's crazy!
Ouch!
Have you been to Oregon? Nope!
Shelby's birthday is August the 8th.
Her birthday is actually coming up pretty soon here.
Would you ever do a video with the dogs trying treats from other countries?
That could be interesting! That could definitely make for an interesting video.
You girls! You got to stay in one camera shot or the other!
Like, oh wait! What are we doing?
Let's all stand over here! Are you all over there?
What's going on? Oh, you're going to lay down? Oh, there she's going to lay down!
Taco dip? That sounds good!
Spaghetti for dogs? Dogs aren't supposed to eat a lot of tomatoes!
Memphis has her toy!
Deshawn Saram, where did you buy your huskies and how much did they cost?
This isn't something that we talked about a lot on the channel, about what we paid for the dogs
and where we got them from, for two reasons. I used to say where we got the dogs from all the time
and then, I found out that a lot of you guys were actually contacting the places we got the dogs from.
They're not a...
Sell puppies to everybody breeder?
We don't usually say that much anymore about where we got them
and how much we paid for them and things like that. What are you doing Shelby?
Oh look! We got up close Oakley! Check it out! There she is!
Whoa! I almost dropped the camera! Up close Oakley!
Tacos for dogs! That would be kind of cute!
There we go! Why can't you get a cat? Because the dogs would eat it?
That blows my mind that you guys ask that question all the time!
Seriously! The dogs would eat it!
If you get another dog, will it be a puppy or an older dog? Again, I don't know! Depends!
If we find a dog to rescue, we might get an older dog. If we find a puppy, we might get a puppy.
Memphis is playing with her toy.
She's so fast! She goes from camera to camera. What you got Memphis?
What you have? Oh! You made it squeak!
Oh my goodness! You did that? You made it squeak!
You did it!
What is the biggest mess the girls ever made?
I don't know like that... I guess not really big messes.
Just things they tore up. Shelby ate a rug. She ate a chair.
She ate a couch. Shiloh ate a comforter.
Those types of things. Toilet paper, paper towel, paper, mail.
Memphis ate a video game and destroyed it.
All over the place!
Do you sell dog t-shirts? Yep! There's links to our spread shirt shop down in the video description below.
They're actually in the video description of every single video.
We actually have some new designs coming out.
We're starting a new shop through Teespring instead of spread shirt.
Because I'm having issues with spread shirt.
We have some new designs coming out soon.
The color pattern is Shelby. Shelby is a sable and white Husky.
What will that be? What? I missed it.
Is it safe to own a Husky in Florida? There are a lot of people that own Huskies in Florida.
You just have to remember that Huskies get hot, just like we get hot.
You want to make sure you have air conditioning and that you have all the proper things to keep the dog cool.
Hot cocoa for dogs. If we do hot cocoa for dogs, it won't be until winter time.
Has Oakley ever destroyed anything in the house?
Not really anything besides paper. She's pretty much just... She likes to chew on paper.
Do you use Chewy.com? Yes!
No new designs. My wallet can't decide.
These designs won't... The new designs that we're doing are not going to be limited edition designs.
They will be designs that will stay at the store for a long period of time.
What did I miss?
Making anything good for dinner and any big camping trips coming up.
We're making tater tot casserole for dinner today and we have a wedding this weekend.
We have a bachelorette and bachelor party.
A wedding party. I guess it would be not the wedding.
Next weekend and then we have another wedding the weekend after that and then I think we can start going camping again.
I think we'll have some weekends where we can actually do stuff.
Did you ever tried the drinkable... What? Drinkable Cadbury?
No, I've never tried the drinkable Cadbury. How about brownies for dogs?
We've done tuna brownies for dogs. But I have a couple of ideas for brownies for dogs.
I'm No Chef Natasha says, what is the reason for Oakley's couch zoomies?
Is it getting frustration out or just energy and why the couch?
I think it has a lot to do with the fact that Oakley doesn't know
how to play.
I think when she was little and before we got her
when she was in her abuse situation, I don't think she was ever allowed to play and really ever
learned how to play. Like she'll chase other dogs but she kind of
gets into that mode where she's not really sure what to do. And when she does play
you can tell she gets really confused. Like she's not sure what to do.
And I think the couch is just kind of her way of... She wants to play.
And she doesn't really know how to initiate play with the other dogs so
she just jumps on the couch like a crazy dog.
Shelby is nine. She will be turning ten in like a month.
Less than a month. Memphis just stole Oakley's spot. She did. You saw that, didn't you?
Do you bring your dogs everywhere? We try to bring our dogs everywhere we can.
But we don't bring them everywhere. When Jamie and I went to VidCon, the dogs had to stay here.
Well, I'm sorry. We try to bring you everywhere. I mean it's not like we don't
try. You can't cry about it.
Since you have so many toys, do the dogs put them away themselves or do they leave them all
over? Oh, we put them away. The dogs usually just leave them all over.
Yes, there's a Stay Positive
Dream big shirt coming out soon.
Soon! Does Memphis like the vet? Yeah, if you didn't see that
video, there's a vid... If you actually look up on YouTube
Memphis loves the vet. Our vlog
of Memphis going to the vet will pop up. Memphis loves
the vet. Like loves the vet.
Oops! Clicked the wrong button. Oops! This button!
This button! This button! So many buttons!
So many buttons!
Aside from stealing the ingredients in the treat videos, has Memphis ever tried to eat
something she wasn't allowed to or supposed to? Oh yeah! All the time! All the time!
She likes to try to eat everything.
Pop tarts for dogs! That's on my list as well. Do you have a dog treat shaped like
cars? Zachary Loomis! Thank you for the super chat!
Love your videos! Thanks for sharing your lives and the dogs! Aww! Thank you so much!
Shelby always a diva? Yeah! Pretty much!
Is bloat only in a husky? Nope! If you watch our
bloat video, we actually talk about that and we say that
bloat can happen in any dog. Which dog is the easiest to deal with?
Oh! That's a hard one! So...
Memphis is happy all the time, but she's
also super hyper, so she's easy to deal with
but then in situations like at the vet and stuff, when you're trying to keep her to sit still, it can be
hard. I think they all have their quirks of what makes them a little bit
difficult to deal with in certain situations. Waffles for dogs!
That's also on my list of things to make.
Yes! They shed a lot. How do you feel about PetSmart buying Chewy?
I think it was the ideal situation for PetSmart.
It sounds like the people at Chewy are still running Chewy. PetSmart just now owns the company.
The only thing I don't like is there are some food companies that have now pulled out
because Origin pulled out. Champion Pet Foods has
pulled out of it because PetSmart bought it and I think it has
to do with they don't like PetSmart and PetSmart's practices
so they're pulling out their food from Chewy, which is sad
because it sounds like the people that currently run Chewy are still running it.
PetSmart just now owns it. Between PetSmart and Petco
I tend to like Petco more, but we've worked with
Petco more. I mean, I don't know. I wish
they wouldn't have, but it sounds like not a lot is going to change
because of it. Hopefully not a lot is going to change because of it. And I mean realistically
business wise it made sense for them to do that. Don't worry I have a feeling it will be Amazon
that does it next. Amazon is just like, let's do all the things!
My Furbo is actually unplugged right now because
it draws from my Wi-Fi.
Don't yawn! All of you are going to yawn now!
Why don't you do your intro anymore?
So I got rid of intros on this channel and I got rid of intros on all the
channels and have gone to an overlay instead. Why did I do that?
One, when I did it almost nobody noticed. It was so crazy. I didn't get any
comments for days on why is the intro gone.
So basically nobody noticed, but
YouTube is very fickle. Most of you guys know we do
YouTube for a living. So when YouTube makes changes we have to make changes and we have to do things
in hopes that our videos still get seen. One of the things YouTube
does is YouTube rewards watch time. So basically when you watch
one of our videos, if you watch it from beginning to the end all the way through
YouTube basically says, oh hey people are watching this video
all the way through, that must mean it's a good video. Let's show it to more
people. It rolls out to more subscription boxes. Yeah, just because you subscribe
to us doesn't actually mean YouTube is going to show you our videos. They really like to not
show you guys our videos. Which is why, if you haven't done so yet, you should click that little
bell icon down below and turn on all notifications.
Which still doesn't actually mean you're going to get all of our notifications because YouTube just
doesn't like to work like it's supposed to. But anyway, thank you
Becky Hill for the super chat. Anyway,
YouTube rewards watch time. So what was happening was the long time
audience members were skipping the intro
and then new people were clicking away
at the intro. Probably because they didn't know that it was only like four seconds long.
Anyway, so in my YouTube analytics where I can
see what's going on in a video, our videos would start and they would have a sharp drop
and then like a little bit of a pick back up. Which isn't a good thing.
At the beginning of a video you kind of want that bar to be
you want to know that people are actually watching the video. So based on
a lot of YouTube gurus and a lot of people that I watch that do like video
influencing and things like that, it seemed like it was a good idea to get rid
of the intro but keep the outro. As I actually went through
and looked afterwards, there was a change. So
that is why we got rid of our intros on this channel and the other
channel. It is basically because YouTube kind of forced us to do it.
I mean there's really no other way to put it than that. Blame YouTube.
But we kept the outro because we really don't want to get rid of that.
But that's why we got rid of it. How's Oakley's eye?
Oakley has now had medicine being put in her eye for a couple days and
she's actually doing pretty good. Never skipped the intro. I loved it.
I know, Shirley. I had a few people that were really upset that
we got rid of it. I might shorten it and bring it back
sort of. I might do something a little bit different with it. I haven't fully decided
yet. But instead of the intro being at the beginning, there would be
20 seconds into the video, there would be a short intro. I haven't decided yet.
It's a work in progress. It might come back. You never know. It might happen.
Oakley's eye, yeah. Oakley's eye is actually doing a lot
better. It's already leaking a lot less. She doesn't have so much moisture and stuff
which is what was causing that sore. So, she has to have that
put drops in her eye three times a day for ten days total.
We're just working on that. Working on that! Right?
What are you doing over here Memphis?
Hey! How's it going Memphis? How are you? Are you just chilling next to me?
I'm just chilling next to you. Yeah? Just chilling, huh?
You're so cute! I know it's hot. We won't live stream
for much longer. I'll turn the air conditioner back on. I swear. I was gonna say, are you really
gonna jump down now that I made it so the camera could see your pretty face?
Oh!
Oh gosh! Oh gosh!
Ice cream for dogs! We have done ice cream for dogs.
That is something we've actually done before.
What are you girls doing?
What are you doing? Are you over there? I know! Can you tell me all about it?
What was that?
What's wrong with you? Huh? Hi! Apparently...
Oh! You guys are funny!
Oakley is a girl. They're all girls. Cheesecake treats for dogs!
That's a good idea too. I'll have to write that one down.
Pie or cake? We've done both.
But we have plans to do more. I love your outro. I always sing it.
TeddyBear1287 says...
Have you tried barn hunt or any sport other than agility with the dogs?
I have not done...
We do dog sledding. I have not done barn hunt with the dogs.
My dogs are not... They don't really seem...
Memphis, maybe! Memphis might enjoy barn hunt.
I think Shelby would get completely bored with it. I think Oakley... I don't think Oakley would do it.
That might be something we can try.
Can I borrow your AC? It's hot here in California.
Advice on caring for a rescue dog?
Patience! That's my biggest advice on everything.
If you don't have patience, you shouldn't have a dog.
What do I do when my dog starts destroying things?
Exercise! Dogs usually become destructive and really want to tear things up.
Because they need more stimulation.
That's in the form of exercise or long lasting treats.
Running them, playing with them. They need mental stimulation.
Learning toys and things like that.
That's usually why dogs tear things up. Because they're bored.
If you have a dog that's tearing something up, you might just want to try a little bit more exercise.
Exercise!
Who gets scared the easiest? Memphis! My favorite thing to do with Memphis is run around and hide.
I'll hide behind the wall or behind the door. When she comes out, I jump out at her and she freaks out.
I should make a video on that. That is hilarious!
That's so much fun!
More agility videos! Not until fall.
It's too hot and humid to run them around.
It's warm in Canada. Mexican buffet for dogs! That would be fun!
Do you have advice for hot spots on Huskies?
Definitely take your dog to the vet and they can give you a nice cream for it.
I know! I know! I know!
What has been your favorite part or experience since becoming a YouTuber?
You guys! No joke!
My favorite thing about doing this is you guys. Is the interaction with you guys.
Is talking to you guys. Chatting with you guys. Talking to you guys on Twitter.
The drawings and stuff you guys send. The stories you tell us.
The conversations we have together. Of everything we do.
My favorite part is... I mean, there's a lot of it.
The first thing I think is you guys. The second thing I think is the fellow YouTube friends
that we've met and that we've hung out with.
Chris from Sushi and Runt. I've known him for forever. If you guys don't know
the channel Sushi and Runt, you should definitely go check them out.
Awesome guy. Awesome family. They've got cats and now they have a dog, Sam.
Just great people. I've been friends with him on YouTube. I met him through YouTube. He lives here in Michigan.
He's one of my oldest YouTube friends. Another one of my oldest YouTube friends
no longer does YouTube, but he had a Malamute named Shia and that was Andy from
the Lions Den. Any of you old school Pawdience members will remember Andy.
RFS Dan from out in California.
Wouldn't have met him if it wasn't for YouTube. Mike and Brittany. Charles and Thor.
Kasha from Creative Pet Keeping.
Thor Unleashed, Creative Pet Keeping. Press Record, Paw Record.
Sushi and Runt, RFS Dan. There's so many.
We went to VidCon and I finally got to meet Shonduras.
I don't know how many of you watch his channel and see him and what he does,
but I had the opportunity to meet him at VidCon, which is really cool because
we follow each other on Twitter. He's watched some of our videos. We watch Best Day Ever all the time.
So, that was really cool.
Who else? Phil DeFranco. Because, I mean, come on. You gotta watch Phil DeFranco.
We met him last year at VidCon, which was really cool. Michael Buckley.
He's a friend of mine from YouTube. There's so many people that
I mean, I could literally just say all these different people that we know
from YouTube. So, I have to say, like, I guess to answer the question
correctly would be the people.
By the people, I mean everybody. Like, you guys, our friends that we've made
that are fellow YouTubers. That's probably been my favorite part.
And then, of all of that, my next favorite part is the fact that
you guys are so awesome and support who we are and what we do, that we can now do this
full time. We get to spend even more time with our dogs, which is great because
dogs have very short lives and we get to spend a lot of extra time with them because
of what we do. I hope that was a good answer. I feel like I was talking for a while.
Boneless wings for dogs? That's a cute idea. Make them not spicy.
Dip them in peanut butter.
Does Oakley have leg and joint problems?
Or is it just because of old age? She does have
leg and joint problems. She has arthritis.
She has arthritis like all down her back.
Which is kind of crazy.
We have done wheat free treats. We have a whole playlist of treats. We've done gluten free treats.
We've done frozen treats. We have a lot of wheat free treats. We've done all kinds of different treats.
Is it rare for Huskies to have brown eyes? Nope! This is something else
as funny as it is. I get asked by you guys, not necessarily you guys, but
people that are new to the channel in the comments quite often. It is not rare for Huskies
to have brown eyes. Huskies can have brown eyes, amber eyes,
blue eyes. They can have party eyes, which is like an eye with blue and a little bit
of brown in it. They can have dark brown eyes. They can have light brown eyes. They can pretty much have
any color eye. None of them are rare. The most common you usually
see is the blue, because a lot of times like backyard breeders think
everybody wants blue eyed Huskies, so they over breed the Huskies with blue eyes
and then you end up with lots of blue eyed Huskies. That's usually why you see them more.
But is brown a rare eye color? No! Pretty much Memphis' entire
family has like brown and amber eyes. Very few
of the Huskies from her family have blue eyes.
But some of them do. Dog lollipops. That's a cool idea.
Peanut butter pancakes. That's a cool idea too.
Wolf Crest 99. This is amazing!
These socks are amazing!
Super Carlin Brothers. You watch them? That's funny.
Flavored ice. Chinese food for dogs.
Look it. See? They played. They had some fun and now
they're like, okay, we're done.
Carob brownies for dogs. So yum! Yeah, that's a good idea too.
Poor Oakley. Tell her that I love her. Hey Oakley, Elise loves you.
Is that what it said? I think that's what it said.
Have any of your dogs been stung by a bee? Yes! We actually have a
video on this channel I think or the vlog channel where the dogs got stung.
Shelby got stung once and Memphis got stung once.
Do you dress up your dogs for Halloween? Again, go search our
main channel page for Halloween costumes and you'll find all the fun videos
we've done every year of the dogs dressed up for Halloween.
Do your dogs get Christmas dinner? Yeah! Our dogs get pretty
spoiled. Dog pasta. Dog pasta. Gummy worms for dogs.
You guys come up with the greatest ideas for treats. More Frappe dog treats.
We did the unicorn Frappuccino thing.
I was gonna do... There was another one that I was gonna do.
We did the Pina Colada Kong I think it was.
But yeah, we might do more of those as well.
What you do if the dogs get hot? Turn on the air conditioning which I'll do in eight minutes when the
live stream ends.
Do you have any tips for cooling off your dogs in the summer?
I have multiple videos on our channel for that. Tips for how to keep
your dogs cool in the summer. Just go to YouTube.com slash Gone To The Snow Dogs and type in
keep dogs cool in the summer in the search box on our actual channel page.
You'll come up with all those videos. We have quite a few of them that we've done over the past years.
We've done cinnamon rolls for dogs. Again, same thing. YouTube.com slash Gone To The Snow Dogs
or just type in Gone To The Snow Dogs cinnamon rolls in the YouTube search
and you'll find them. We did those for Christmas one year.
Oh my goodness! They're all going so fast!
What? We're almost done?
Have you ever heard of entropion huskies?
What? Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on.
Have you ever heard of an entropion in huskies?
Oh yes! I believe that's a genetic defect.
That sadly comes from improper
breeding of dogs.
Where do you find...
Where do you find the board where the dogs sit on
when they get their... Oh! That's a table. In our grooming video
we actually... Actually, if you go down to... In the video description to our Amazon
store link, the table is in our Amazon store. That's a grooming table.
We got it from Amazon. I bought a lot of things from Amazon.
Unicorn preppies for the dogs! Yes! We've done unicorn preppies for the dogs.
I know, now I want cinnamon rolls too. That sounds amazing.
Tacos for dogs! Shelby!
I'll show you guys Shelby. She's over here having a fit.
Can I help you? We'll turn it back on in a minute.
That's weird. In six minutes.
We do treat videos every other Monday. If you're asking for more, have you watched all
76 of them that we've already done? Can you believe we've done that many?
We used to only do treat videos once in a while and then they just
started to get more and more popular and that was what a lot of you were asking for. So, I started doing them
once a month and then I upped it to every other Monday. We've talked about
doing it every Monday, but that's just crazy. Every other Monday is good
for the treat videos. At least, I think so.
Whoa! Don't scroll
that way! I know, sushi for dogs. A lot of you guys
have said that. We will do sushi for dogs.
Hot dogs for dogs? Ice cream sandwiches for dogs
would be interesting. That would be cute. We could do that.
We actually could make ice cream sandwiches for dogs.
I could use the recipe that I used to make the dog Oreos to make the ice cream sandwich
tops and bottoms. That's a cute idea. That might have to happen.
Somebody said, I just subscribed. Welcome to the channel!
Pineapple treats! Pineapple treats! Bacon treats!
So many treats!
What? What? What veggies or fruits do the dogs like?
Oh gosh! Shelby doesn't like any fruits or veggies without dip.
What? They don't like
apparently strawberries without dip. Except for Memphis. Memphis likes everything though.
We've done Pokeball treats before. What?
I don't understand. Memphis is like, hey Oakley, do you want to
play with me? I would play with you, if you would play with me. Would you play with me?
Piggity!
She's like, hey can you play with me? Are you needy?
Can you tell me all about it? Want to sing? Sing!
Sing it out loud! Sing! Sing! Sing!
Sing! Oh now Memphis is thinking about singing.
Shirley says, you have unleashed the beast now. I will try my hardest to find Dutch dog treats
and send the girls. Do it! Totally! Yeah!
They've had kangaroo treats that somebody sent from Australia. It's actually
a really neat idea to actually do that. Dogs try from like
try different treats from different places. That would be kind of neat.
They've had kangaroo. They've had alligator treats.
So, why not? We'll make it a thing.
Should that be a thing? Let's make it a thing. It's like Explosion Wednesday. Is that a thing?
WheezyWaiter, anybody? I got to meet him at VidCon too. I've watched him for years.
Stoddies04, thank you for the super chat.
Moon pies for dogs. That would be funny.
We do know how to make marshmallows for dogs, so we could make that
happen. Mini apples for dogs. We've done apple treats
for dogs, just specifically for Oakley. Why are they whimpering?
That's Shelby. She's just being vocal. She likes to do that.
Alright you guys! That is going to be it for
today's live stream. We have live stream for almost
an hour. We are going to end this now.
If you haven't done so yet, down in the video description below, there is a whole bunch of links
to a bunch of different things you can go check out. We have our new
Amazon affiliate store, where you can see a bunch of the stuff that we purchased
and we use with our dogs. We have the harnesses and equipment link
so like where we get our harnesses that we use for our dogs and
like the camping picket line and things like that. There's a link for that plus
a coupon code for 10% off. The music we use in the videos, down in the video description

free to use Epidemic Sound. And then there's all of our other social media sites down
