- [Keith] Oh my god, (dogs barking) what a nightmare.
Oh my god!
Oh, they're all doing it!
Except for the sweetie.
Look at her, she's just in a little ray of sunshine.
(upbeat music)
- Today we are switching dogs and
we're gonna dog-sit each other's dogs.
- This is just another episode of
the Try Guys learn about the different
responsibilities that each dog needs.
I already know that they a lot of responsibility,
that's why I don't have one.
I grew up with eight, at a time.
- This is my dog, Bean.
He is a two-and-a-half-year-old labradoodle.
He's my first child!
I'm excited to maybe try a different dog out
that is maybe a more chill temperament.
- This beautiful boy is Bowie.
Hi baby!
Bowie is my puppy, he is just a little over a year old.
I love my dog more than anything,
and I am more or less totally indifferent about most others.
- This is Emma, she's about nine-years-old.
This is Pesto, he's almost five: and they're my two pups.
They are brother and sister.
I'm very used to having low-maintenance dogs so,
I'm a little worried about having a high-maintenance dog.
- I don't have a dog so, why am I here?
Well, I'm still a Try Guy so I have to be involved
some way or another.
- We're going to be doing a dog-choosing ceremony,
cause it's not about us picking the dogs,
it's about the dogs picking us.
(dramatic music)
- Welcome to the dog-choosing ceremony.
Today, Bowie will choose a new daddy for a day.
Bowie is, you know, he's an active breed, he's hyper.
Australian shepherds are known for being really active.
- If I could be any dog parent,
I would not be the guy who runs hiking with his husky.
I like dogs when they're relaxed.
- He's an anxious breed, if you break from protocol,
it's gonna stress him out.
- If I have to babysit another dog that's really needy,
I'm not gonna be able to pay a lot of attention to them,
until the baby goes to bed.
- Bowie is too much to handle.
- Last time Bowie was at my place,
he wrecked it and shat all over my carpet.
- Are you ready?
Three, two, go get your daddy!
- Come here, Bowie, come on! - Come here, Bowie!
Come here, Bowie!
(collective aww)
(angelic harp)
- Wow, Eugene got Bowie, wow, oh no!
- You didn't even try, Kieth.
- Oh, I missed it, I didn't even hear it start.
- You didn't even call for Bowie.
- I missed the beginning, oops.
- The one thing that I lack with these two pups
is having a bigger dog, and I love big dogs, mainly cause
I like to do a lot of outdoorsy activities.
Bowie is the most high energy dog,
and in a ways I have a very high energy lifestyle,
so I'm interested to see how that pairs.
Plus, I forgot how hot Bowie is!
- [Zach] Yeah Bowie's hot!
- [Ned] Bowie's hot.
- I think I gotta like, model with Bowie a lot.
- Eugene, her you go, here's a treat pouch,
so Bowie has IBS, he can only eat these treats,
I know, I know, dude, if you give him anything else
he's gonna have a lot of diarrhea.
- He's just like his father!
- I think whoever gets him today
is gonna be surprised by how far he's come.
(dog bark)
- Okay Bean, it's time for you to
choose a new daddy for the day.
I am so excited for today because Bean needs this.
Ever since the baby was born, Bean
has not gotten enough attention.
I think whoever gets Bean, might be upset if Bean
barks too much because, he's used to protecting the baby.
- I think that barking is the most unforgivable
trait that a creature could ever have.
- I don't like it when dogs are running around
with their little nails on the floor.
(tapping)
Come here, Bean! - Go play!
- Oh, who's he gonna pick?
Who's he gonna pick?
- Me, me, come on Bean!
- Bean come over here!
- Go!
- [Zach] Beanie, come here!
And, oh god.
- Yay, he punched him in the dick!
(Ned laughing)
It's his, it's his! - He chose you!
- The old dick punch choice!
- [Zach] Bean was not my first choice,
I've never gotten to really bond with him, but
we're gonna love each other today!
Historically, I am a cat person.
I just don't care about most dogs.
But my goal today is to figure out
what the other guys love so much about their dogs.
- Zach thinks Bowie's the best
and that all the other dogs suck, and I'm over it.
I hope Zach gets Bean, cause then
he'll be forced to love him.
(dog bark)
- Hey, what's up?
You guys ready to go to a new uncle?
You guys ready to do it?
Alright, you guys ready?
You want my dogs?
Yes, Emma! - Emma!
(clapping) Emma!
- My ideal version of today is that I get Emma
and we spend the entire day being rich ladies in Los Feliz.
Carrying her tiny dog around, and drinking expensive coffee.
- I've never really connected with Pesto or Emma.
They just sort of sit there.
- I wanna wear athleisure, like we can wear
little matching outfit, I can have it under my arm.
- I mean I want a low-maintenance day.
I gotta focus on the baby and Emma's
the chillest of all the dogs, so I want Emma.
- I wanna take Emma on a rich lady trip
to Los Feliz where we will be rich ladies.
- Emma.
Emma.
Emma!
Emma.
She has a lot of anxiety, see, she's upset.
Emma, it's okay.
Emma, come here, it's okay, come back, come back, come back.
Emma is a darling but she has
a lot of weird emotional issues.
My theory, cause she's a rescue,
is that she was raised by an elderly woman
who coddled her and then died in front of her.
And so Emma was left with the woman's body.
Alright, you ready to release the hounds?
- Yes. - Yes.
- [Eugene] Alright, one, two, three, go get a new dad!
- [Ned] Come on, Emma!
Come on, Emma!
- [Keith] Emma!
Emma!
- Yes, Emma! (angelic harp)
- [Ned] Wow!
- I win, I won!
- Great! (angelic harp)
We're both stuck with each other.
- Pesto on the other hand, is pure dog.
He tends to be kind of lazy.
He knows how to sit.
That's uh, that's pretty much it.
(Ned laughs)
Alright well have fun with my pups.
- Thanks! - Oh, thanks.
- Bye, kids.
- Bye!
Okay, Emma, let's go get some coffee.
- Hey Pesto, just try not to ruin Ariel's house.
(dog bark)
- Come here, Bean!
Alright, you ready to have a...
Every dog has its day, you ready to have yours?
Me and Bean are getting along great so far.
- [Keith] Let's do this, Emma!
We're on an adventure!
You're my dog now.
Just left to get Emma in tow, Pesto
did not like seeing his sister leave.
Emma, we're going to the car, Emma.
- [Zach] Beanie, are you ready for me?
Oh look, he's so excited.
(laughs)
Pesto wants to come with me but you're not allowed.
(Bean barks)
Hey, hey! - Hey, hey!
- [Ned] Play nice boys, play nice.
- I don't know if Bowie's allowed to
car surf while I'm driving, but he has decided to.
I'm trying to make sure I uphold Zach's and Maggie's
billions of dog rules but, you know I want him
to have fun today, he's gonna have a good time.
- Just got in the car and Emma has done the weirdest thing.
She's like hiding from the world.
Look at you, so scared!
(Emma coughs)
Aw, what, don't, don't do that.
- Bean come!
- [Ned] Just say okay and start walking.
- Okay!
We're gonna try a little uh, a little bribery.
- [Ned] Yeah!
- A little old-fashioned bribery, see how that does.
Beanie, okay!
Aw yeah, that gets him every time.
(grunting)
Wow, he really doesn't want to come with me.
- [Ned] Come on, Bean, let's go!
- [Zach] Wow!
He's loyal.
I'm just gonna run away until he
realizes what's going on, let's go.
Bye! - Bye!
Have a great time!
- [Zach] Thanks!
I'm fine with Bean, he's a little jumpy,
he's a little yappy, but mostly
he just doesn't seem to like me.
I'm normally not one to bribe with treats but
I'm just gonna say that Bean and I are still in
the training phase so, everything I do
today is gonna be treat-central.
- So me and Pesto are going for a walk and,
oh my goodness, he is pulling at this leash like crazy!
Bean's really good at like just walking right next to me,
and Pesto is either pulling ahead of me,
or stopping to sniff every single little thing.
Oh, whoa!
Whoa, Pesto!
We are pooping!
(heavy sigh)
Eugene did not give me any poop bags.
(toy squeaks)
- [Eugene] Ready to play, Bowie?
All of this treasure is yours now, it's all yours, Bowie!
Here's my apartment, and Bowie is excited cause
I think he knows we're gonna start playing soon.
Aw, Bowie!
(laughs)
I got it, I got it!
- Got a leaf and a stick here.
Ew, Pesto, oh one of them's really slimy.
(deep inhale)
- So we are gonna go for a hike, right Bowie?
Are you excited?
Yes you are, oh yes you are!
Okay.
Okay, okay, wow.
- Okay, I got the poop, oh dammit, Pesto!
- I am all ready for the hike and we are
gonna go get our exercise on, gotta get some
of this energy out of you, right?
Alright, let's go, (clicks tongue) come on!
Good boy!
(retching cough)
(upbeat music)
- We are in beautiful Los Feliz, just
me and Emma, she does not like cars.
I'm walking through in my athleisure, with a cute dog.
Emma is finally chill, hanging out with me.
Ice coffee.
Can I just get the veggie burger,
with a side of the potato salad?
Taken Emma off of my lap because it's time for me
to have my garden burger, and potato salad.
Cause I'm watching my figure, we're fancy ladies.
- I know Ned really wants Bean to
respect doors and boundaries so since
I've seen him do this, Beanie, sit.
(gasps)
Okay, he's checking it out, he's smelling the scents.
- [Ned] We finally made it home!
Let's say hi to the baby!
(baby gurgling)
Look, it's baby Wesley!
(Ariel laughs)
Pesto.
It's like they're facing off, and both about the same size.
- Beanie, come!
Kay, let's take a poop together.
Bowie can only play with certain toys,
but I actually have all of these
sock toys that he never gets to play with.
- [Ned] Pesto, that's Bean's food.
What are you doing?
This doesn't feel right.
(crunching food)
Zach is taking care of Bean today.
- Oh, I bet Zach's having a great time.
- [Ned] Yeah, I think he is.
- [Zach] Oh!
(nervous laugh)
- So, we are almost at Runyon Canyon, which
is a hiking trail, and sometimes Pesto and Emma
can't keep up with me if it's too hot, so it would be
nice to see if we can get Bowie some cardio.
Are you excited buddy?
(energetic music)
So we start running.
Whoa, okay, this is gonna be our hike.
- You know, I'm a little disappointed
some things aren't going how I wanted them to.
I wanted to put Emma in my bag, and
I tried to put Emma in my bag, and she wasn't in to it,
and there were people looking, I got embarrassed
cause it looked like I was abusing the dog.
(Bean barks) - Don't bark at the door!
Uh-uh, Beanie!
See this is what I'm talking about.
Why are you being, you don't even live here,
why would you bark at the door?
(energetic music)
- [Eugene] Let's go, come on!
(laughs)
Good boy!
Alright, here we go.
(deep exhale)
- I think I have to drive back to the office just to
use the bathroom, cause my apartment doesn't allow pets.
(toy squeaking)
- Squeaky toy, squeaky toy, you ready?
He doesn't trust me, I can tell.
- [Keith] Emma, you can't lay on the floorboard where
I drive, that's really not gonna work.
Emma!
- So Bowie did an amazing job, we made
it in record time up the mountain.
How're you feeling, buddy?
He's doing good.
Come on, boy!
(energetic music)
Catch up with me, Bowie!
- Here's what I think about Emma,
Emma's such a nervous dog that her anxiety
gets in the way of her just doing a lot of normal things
normal dogs should do like walk across a street
When I get back to the office, I'm gonna use the bathroom,
relax, maybe we're gonna hang out, take a nap,
and then I think I'm gonna just de-stress her
with a nice relaxing bath, you know, rich ladies,
elegant ladies like to unwind.
- There's been times where Bowie doesn't know the
boundaries and so Bean snaps at him,
and so yeah I've not been the nicest to Bean sometimes
cause I'm protective of my dog.
I can see that, there's an issue of trust between he and I.
I think I need to do some things
to make him more comfortable with me.
Alright, we're going old-school training.
I got my clicker, I got my treats,
and I'mma teach this old dog some new tricks.
- Kay, Pesto, we made it to the dog park, are you excited?
Yeah!
(fast-paced music)
- [Zach] Weave.
- [Keith] Good, Emma, yes!
Wow, who's she?
- [Ned] Catch it!
Oh!
Play nice, play nice.
- [Keith] Oh, oh okay, that's...
- I'm such a proud doggie daddy
right now, Pesto is making all the friends!
- He really doesn't trust me at all.
(Bean barking)
Maggie is home, oh no, Bean, Beanie!
Beanie, Beanie, Beanie!
- Come on!
(toy squeaking)
Come on, sit.
Yeah!
Lay down.
- I literally have been with him here
for like 25 minutes and he has not played with me.
Why?
- [Maggie] Yes!
Weave.
- [Zach] Wow!
- [Maggie] Over here.
Yes!
Weave.
- [Zach] He's so much more comfortable with you, Maggie.
- [Maggie] He wants more cuddles.
- Now that we've bonded, okay, come here, Beanie.
Come here!
Come on!
Yeah, good boy!
Okay, weave.
Yeah! - Yeah, he's getting it!
- Fuck yeah, woo!
No, no, no, no, no, not that, not that.
Kay I guess you're a good boy.
I think we bonded today, he really
didn't like me in the beginning of the day.
I think some dogs are afraid of men,
and like I'm a really manly man, so I get it.
(Maggie laughs)
- Just got back from our hike, I took a shower,
and one thing that Zach asked me
that I should try with Bowie is just cuddling.
He seems pretty pooped after that really long hike,
so we're gonna try to take a little bit of a nap.
Yeah, there we go, there we go.
- Aww this is what I want, we're just gonna nap, is that
what I'm doing in a Try Guys video today, I'm just napping?
- It's a very successful outing to the dog park.
I got Pesto's vibe a little more.
You know, he's just like a chill party dude,
having fun, doesn't really care about the rules.
- You know ever since they had the baby, Ned and Ariel
don't get to take Bean out as much as they used to,
so I'm gonna give Bean a nice time, let him get some
of his energy out, see if I can win him over.
- It's a cuddle-bug.
More like cuddle-Bowie, I didn't expect
Bowie to be so cuddly.
- [Kieth] Bubbles!
(water splashing)
Emma!
Come on, Emma!
- You wanna pet Pesto?
Oh yeah, look at that.
(gasps)
Yeah!
Pesto does not care.
Bean would never let this happen.
- Go get it!
Bring it back!
And, come back, and drop it, drop.
Yeah, good boy!
- Nice and easy.
In the bath, (flustered mumbles), get in the bath.
Get in the bath!
It's okay, it's okay, no Emma, Emma, it's just a bath!
It's just a bath.
I had a good time with you today, Emma.
This is a perfect way to end our nice, pleasant day.
She's too nervous even for me to look at her.
Okay, let's get you out and get you dried off, huh Emma.
(dog bark)
I watched Emma to a T, and by that
I mean mostly we sat and laid down.
Pretty much what I expected, she does like to sit
in your lap, she likes to hang out and be docile,
but what I didn't expect is that
she's so nervous that sometimes it
debilitates her from just being a dog.
- My day was great!
I really enjoyed my time with Bowie.
You know, the last time I've actually spent a lot of
quality time with Bowie was actually when he was a puppy.
But, uh he's way more relaxed and way more sweet than
I thought he was as a pup before.
- I was pleasantly surprised by Pesto!
He's just a cute little weirdo that loves to chill,
he really doesn't give a fuck about anything.
- Bean is incredibly well trained.
At the end, Bean was really sweet with me.
We just got back to the office,
and he came and he sat under my desk,
I don't have any footage of it, but it was really cute.
- I did actually learn a little bit more about dog rearing.
Every dog certainly is different,
has their own little quirks.
- [Eugene] I took lots of pictures throughout the process,
I changed to a new outfit, and I got my neighbor to come out
and we sat on a stranger's porch and took pictures
really quick because we don't know who lives in that house.
Very Instagrammable dog, I see now why
Zach so annoyingly takes so many pictures of him.
- [Ned] Yeah, maybe I didn't have as much fun,
but by the end Pesto is part of my family
- [Zach] I didn't give Bean a fair chance,
I guess I don't give many dogs a very chance.
Obviously, I still love Bowie more than I love other dogs,
but it doesn't mean I can't love other dogs too.
(playful upbeat music)
- I took a bath at the office, you know, in California
you don't have to have HR until there's about 32 employees.
50?
We'll never get there!
I'll be taking baths in the office
with dogs until the cows come home!
