I'm Molly, a typical sushi, makeup, and fashion loving millennial girl who just so happens to be blind! I was diagnosed with Retinitis Pigmentosa at just 4 years old and began public speaking at age 5. I started just doing motivational speaking, but now I make videos and even model! Even though I can’t see, I know that there are bright spots in everything we face. Let’s find them together. 💕
Have you ever tried to give your dog a bath at home in your bathtub?! PS. Don't forget to follow me on TikTok! @mollyburkeofficial :D
I don't have a tub, so my boy gets a shower every month. My shower isn't unlike yours; it has those sliding gass doors, but mine is fairly narrow. My boy has a long, double coat, so getting him properly soaked is a bit of a challenge and takes time. I actually use a small coke bottle to mix some schampoo with water to dilute it and make it easier to work into his entire coat, and I schampoo him twice to make sure I get him like fully clean. Then, conditioner of course both for his coat to look fluffier and to make him easier to groom. Another pro-tip (I'm not a pro though!) is to actually brush a bit wile the conditioner is in the coat before rinsing, since it makes the loose hair come out super easy! I actually taught him the command "shake!" so I can tell him to shake lots of water off INSIDE the shower before he gets to get out. i toweldry him off as best I can, but I also blowdry him a bit, and try to comb a bit while I'm blowdrying him him to get yet more loose hair ou1 The process is nearly identical with my cats, minus the blowdry because that's where they draw the line!
Yeah I need a leash to get Y to shower coz the water in here is cold so yeah and Y hates cold things except for ice coz he loves eating ice but he hates showering but it's good if I have treats and yeah
@Anna Braine Same here! But my girl knows she gets treats after and she loves that part! lol
Yeah, every few weeks because she gets stinky as well.
Molly Burke my dog loves to go in the bath she lays down and splashes around
After watching her dog retirement video I am watching this bawling.
Just came from your most recent video, my heart is with you during this difficult time. 💛♥💛♥
Such a GOOD BOY Gallop! “Can’t find his brush”.... donates own hairbrush to Gallop. Lol same. Several of my cats’ brushes used to be mine. BTW having an extra long hose for a handheld shower head is awesome for bathing pets at home. My oldest cats is leash trained (heels, sits, shakes paw, gives high five, ...)so he used to get baths after hikes (but covid = no outdoor time for kitties)
Sorry this question must get asked all the time but is Gallop a Labrador?
Hello I am the owner of Doug’s dogs and you did everything right I am not just saying that to be nice it’s really that good!
Personal pets are so wonderful for disabled people.
53: he’s smiling 🥰
You have an awesome dog there!
19:05 molly thinking she covered gallop when he can still fully see is so wholesome
Molly filling the tub: THIS IS GONNA BE SO FUN Gallop: *doubt*
Omgosh he's such a sweetheart. 🥰
my sis has a birthday on may 2
Hahaha so cute!! I also shared mine🤣
They make a stretchy hose that can go around any shower head u can check out
Omg, i don’t know anyone who takes there GD to the groomers, just do it yourself. Surely you have to do it after a free run anyways.
the comments here: i would rather be blind, it makes live so much easier
The amount of professional dog groomer ads I got while watching this video 😂 you did a great job molly
Endless patience and understanding from you, your mom and Gallop. One of the things I admire most about you Molly.
We have the same brush!!!
My dog loves baths! She jumps in the bath to say ‘let me have a bath’ when she’s dirty or cold lol x
If he eats peanut butter then I'd rub some peanut butter on the inner wall of the tub while your bathing him. Keeps him occupied while your bathing him
Anyone else really want a gallop (personality looks etc) I’m a huge fan of black labs though
14:43 Gallop's melted my heart
The thumbnail was so cute!!! 😍🤣
Are seeing eye dogs allowed to play? How do they know when it's work time and play?
When it’s work time they have a harness on. Oh and it’s guide dog not seeing eye dog.
They are allowed to play! They are trained to know that when their harness is on it's time to work.
Gallop is so cute
My puppy will do anything for cheese too! 😂
Molly, have you tried to give your CAT a bath? That's when the fun begins! LOL! :D
As someone who occasionally does baths at my job in a animal hospital with a kennel, bathing without a leash restraint is so hard. I don't think I would be able to bathe a dog without having them attached to the wall with a lead.
Dear Molly, my brother is blind, so I guide him around. I am his little sister. Anyway, my mom bought your merch 7 days ago. It showed up in the mail yesterday. It’s the love yourself hoodie with the Braille on it. My brother doesn’t know how to read Braille quite yet. Anyway, I just want to thank you for inspiring us all! You’re amazing!
Gallop is so cute ❤
I wash my dog in the shower. I have one of the detachable shower heads so it makes it so much easier...and he likes drinking the water from the shower head 😂
My dog always jump on my bed when she is clean. It’s like “ I’m clean and fresh, now I can sleep on the bed” and she is always playful
Oh also does ur dog like a NEW TOY for 10 minutes then never touch it again :p
Is it just with my dog or when u get a box he wants to take it to the recycle bin
She should film a movie that’s similar to a dogs purpose but about what gallops life has been like from training to molly and included hashtag blind girl moments
Gallop is me when I take my anxiety pills in the beginning 😂❤️❤️
This video made me want a dog so much. I’m not allowed to have a dog, one reason is cause we have an old cat.

A little late to the conversation, but when bathing a big dog in a bathtub it is much easier if you have one of the shower heads with the hose. They are easy to install, also your maintenance at the complex may be willing to install it for you if you supply the shower hose head. When I had my mobility dog who would prevent me from falling, I would bathe him in the shower all the time. He was over a 100 lbs. (Great Dane and Bull Mastiff mix). It was a workout to get him in there, but we got through it each time. The hose style shower head made it much faster and easier. Unfortunately, I am between service dogs right now, but I did take on my parents pooch when they could not longer take care of him at 7 years old, and at 8 lbs. he is so much easier to bathe. I just put him in my kitchen sink. You did a great job! Definitely a hose shower head just in case you ever need to do this again yourself. When I would finish with Copper the Dane/Mastiff mix the entire bathroom and I would be as wet as he was!
Suddenly "We're all in this together" pops up in my mind 🎶😂
Your awesome and love you videos. I know u can see this. But I love u. Sorry. Not trying to be rude
She can’t see it though, she is completely blind so she uses voice over on her phone.
During quarantine we basically just let our dogs smell 😂
My dog actually jumped out of the bathtub while he STILL HAD SOAP ON HIM and I had to pick up A soaking wet 70 POUND DOG and I’m 11 so ya and he got soap all over the bathroom
I hope gallop out lives me so I don’t hear that he died
Gallop is a very cheese-motivated dog . And he is a silly Gallopy Goose . Love your vids Molly and Gallop is very very cute
When I give my dog a bath it’s always so gross because I get clumps of dog hair all over me and I end up having to put my feet in the bath and then they get all wet and gross lol
I groom my rescue dog in the bath every week ( not a wash every week, just when I do a big dry brush to contain the fur), and she's about 85 pounds. She wasn't a fan of grooming and the bathtub so we set up the bath to make it the best experience possible, with a grippy floor matt, and peanut butter on the wall for her to lick! I've got to be efficient, but it distracts her long enough to get the job done. After a bath I usually make her look like a seal with the towel, and apparently, if you rest your hand on the top of their head they won't shake until you move it? I also usually have to deep clean my bathroom afterward, but at least it encourages me to clean more!
Aw my birthday is on the 23rd
Is it me or has gallop grown 3 sizes....never realised how big he was till now
He's always been a big boy
If half to use baby wipe to keep him clean it works I did for my dog till you get use to the tub ok
This reminds me of bathing my 9 year old, 77lb dog! He makes a mess but is a good boy. Then afterwards he prances around like he's hot stuff. 😆
Gallop and I share a birthday 🎈💕
Gallop was so adorable taking his bath! And he shares his birthday with my dad!
When galopp i guiding you how does he know like witch store you want to go in to or witch resturant or when you want to leave the mal or go to the train station and how does he guid you there??? Love you😊❤😊
As someone with 4 small dogs (12-24 lbs) watching this video I'm very grateful for their size on bath days. They're so easy to get into the tub and most of the time they wont attempt to get out since it's a much bigger jump
Why does Gallop always have a little smile n his face?
I just realized how.big Gallup's head is and i think it is so adorable ❤😂
guys no joke when you were talking about gallop smelling bad i suddenly smelt a dirty dog... and then when you were talking about baths i smelt soap...
My family dog does that in between the leg thing too! Its weirdly his comfort spot. He likes it if you put pressure on him with your legs and then I'll lean down and hug him with the rest of my body too. Its adorable and his cure for anything from feeling insecure to being afraid of gun shots (we live in the country). But it's less adorable when he's either been skunked or rolled around in horse crap and he's feeling insecure because no one will touch him and is giving him a wide birth lol But it's just one of the many endearing quality's I love about him. Dogs truly are so amazing. I may never be a mother but being a fur momma helps fill any void I would have otherwise. I'll never not have a dog in my life. ❤🌻🥰
Always wash the head last because if you do it first he will be more likely to shake and soak you guys
My puppy loves his baths. Whenever he sees a bathtub, he hops right in even if he's already had a bath that day.
Ninety- Ninety Five- Ninety five pounds? My dog, a lab, is barley forty pounds, she’s a small baby...
I would watch ASMR of Gallop eating treats and cheese. Such a stunning, handsome, sweet, smart boy. Gallop is such a good boy!
I think you do it better than any other groomer I wish my dog took treats in the tub
holy shit, Be is my idol.
❤️
as a professional groomer i can say you did a wonderful job and was really thorough! he looked wonderful and did great with you in the tub!
I love gallop so much
this video has brighten my day
The make doggie deodorizer if my pups gets stinky from rain and stuff and I dont have time to give them a bath I just spray it on their fur and brush them so it spreads thru their coat
His whole face during that bath was a whole mood
My grandparents' old dog used to hate getting into the bath but loved it after she got water on her. She would stop resisting, wag her tail and even jump back in after she got some water on her. It was just the first getting-her-into-the-tub that was difficult. She wasn't all that big of a dog so my dad or grandpa could pick her up easily when she was younger, but when she was fully grown, even though she was a middle sized dog, it got a little harder.
did anyone else notice how cloudy glaops eyes were at 19:16
I am in a pre-vet program and will be working on my master's in canine behavior , hoping to train service pups like Gallop some day! One little thing that stood out to me was when you said Gallop gets extra dandruff-y when you travel on planes a lot. The hypothesis of the dry air on the planes is a really good one, but some research shows that dandruff can actually be a stress response in dogs. The extra attention to his bath schedule and nice shampoo can never hurt. Airports/planes can be intimidating for all of us, even our pups!
He protec He attac but he also love a chessy snack!!!!!
My dog loves perfumes and sopes I am not joking
Gallop: the only reason I tolerate this is cause I get CHEESE! 🧀
You should try the furminator!
hey molly you should try baby shampoo on gallop. worked wonders on my two. they have never been more soft,smelled better,and hand much better skin. its also usually cheaper then dog shampoo. i can bathe them more then once a day no without drying them out if i need to. i found they also wernt shedding as badly when i used it. just a thought :)
Can I still go there and get a dog even if I’m not blind
Molly: it’s going to be so fun. Gallop: 👁👄👁
Petsmart sells a purple rubber hair catcher for the drain. It sits on the drain and has a few little suction cups around it to make it stay. My dogs shed a lot in the bath too, you should definitely check it out. Love you Molly and gallop!!
Omg even I’m proud of gallop 😍
You look stunning in this video. and galloper goose? Ohh my heart. Love it so much
I love playful Gallop!!! Most people may think that he's just a chilled out kinda old dog and we never see this side of him but he gets do into it while he's playing and it's adorable 😂♥️
I love the way Molly always says we as in her and gallop. It is sooo cute!!
Omg! I had the same brush And I use it for my cat!
Has gallop always been so enormous? Why does he look so big in this video? Not fat just large.... I love him though no hate.
He’s a labrador so what do you expect?
My Birthday is May 2nd like Gallop I just had my Quarantine birthday!!💖💖
Kate LaBorde happy birthday 🥳 for the other day!!
Everyday *taps nose*
I love that his bestie is a pit 😭
What might help him like it more is spreading peanut butter or something pasty on the side of the tube for him to lick off also, mixing soap in some water and using a sponge can help the soap spread better.
16:31 that dirty bath water tho 🤮🤮🤮
IKR
Love gallop squad | | √
Loved his growly playing noises. We used to have a small poodle cross and our basset hound, and when they played together you'd think they were killing each other, and I'm like no they're fine, he's just the noisest player ever lol. Also last night my 4-year-old son was having a bath and he got up and closed the door then I heard these not so happy meowing noises and sure enough, he had our 15 pound, super fluffy cat in the bath with him!! ...again!!! 🙀 Gallop did great!
I got a cheap brush for dogs and cats and it has a button which i press to get the hair out it's very nice it does the job but it's pretty small..
Dude! We have the same birthday month! May 31 is my birthday! Can't wait lol, tho.... I wish I could've spent it with my friends... But I have Asma so leaving is IMPOSSIBLE....
