I don't even know where to begin or what words to use that could truly express my gratitude to George & all that he has done for me and my family. Our new puppy who was supposed to bring fun, happiness and playfulness to my home, brought division between my husband & I. And made my current dog miserable.
I don't even know where to begin or what words to use that could truly express my gratitude to George & all that he has done for me and my family. Our new puppy who was supposed to bring fun, happiness and playfulness to my home, brought division between my husband & I. And made my current dog miserable. My husband was often frustrated & angry with the puppy as well as me for bringing him to our once peaceful home. He often told me it was him or the dog....telling me to find him a home, this was heartbreaking.
Here's a little background.
I rescued a puppy. He and 4 other puppies were poisoned by the neighbor & was surrendered to the local vet. One sadly, died. My heart went out to them & always working on emotion, once he recovered, I took home a 9 week old puppy. I already had a " very well behaved" 3 year old.... Or so I thought.
George came to my home and helped me with a new puppy, we also at that point found a laundry list of issues I had not seen or had a " reasonable" excuse for since he too was a rescue.
George came in & explained these are not my "children" nor are they "brothers" & explained how that mindset could set us all up for failure.
Within the first moments of training I could see such potential in such a little puppy now only 3 1/2 months old. We didn't work much on the dog except for correcting constant growling in which I have never heard him do before. My husband attended sessions 2-6 & within no time we had 2 pleasant dogs who are currently quietly laying next to me with no command to do so. Leash training is almost seem less, down stays are 3-4 hours per day broken up throughout the day, dinner time is a pleasure. There are no food aggressions, no digging in the yard, chewing bedposts or molding ( yes, that happened) no bolting out of kennels no running out the exits.People who visit are in awe of what especially a puppy can do. Like them I had little to no expectations of what a puppy can do with training. I am amazed & trilled to have dogs that are well behaved.
So in closing I can only say THANK YOU LORENZO'S AND THANK YOU GEORGE for a happy healthy well balanced family.
Sincerely,
