Initial Bath: Walter's grooming begins with a thorough bath. Despite being his first grooming session, Walter handles the shower well, although he is hesitant about getting on the grooming table.

Shedding and Deshedding: Walter sheds heavily, requiring multiple canisters of the de-shedding solution to manage his thick coat. The groomer uses special tools to remove the excess fur and debris from his coat.

Drying: Walter is introduced to the dryer, which he finds a bit intimidating. The groomer uses patience and care to help Walter adjust to the noise and sensation.

Reluctance to Climb on the Table: Walter is reluctant to get on the grooming table, leading the groomer to adapt and groom him at floor level.

Matted Fur: Walter has some matted areas, especially around his back end, which require careful shaving and dematting.

Nail Trimming: Walter's nails are long, with some resembling "Velociraptor" claws. The groomer carefully trims them while ensuring Walter remains comfortable.

Breed Characteristics: The Leonberger originated in Germany and was initially bred to be a companion for royalty. They later became versatile farm dogs and are known for their gentle nature and suitability as therapy dogs.

Personality: Walter exemplifies the Leonberger's reputation as a "sweet angel," showing a calm and gentle demeanor throughout the grooming process.
