‼️PLEASE PAY ATTENTION‼️
Before you watch The Heart of the Beast and immediately decide you NEED a German Shepherd because Odin is an absolute badass… let this be your warning. 😂🐾

Dogs don’t just wake up one morning knowing how to do the things Odin does.

That takes TIME. Training. Consistency. And then some more training.

When you’re tired? Train.
When you’re sick? Train.
When you’ve got 47 other things you need to be doing? Train anyway.

German Shepherds are incredibly smart, high-energy working dogs. They NEED a job. And if you don’t give them one, there’s a pretty good chance they’ll assign themselves one… and you probably won’t like the job they chose. 😂

Want alone time? Forget it.
Bathroom? You have company.
Shower? Supervised.
Cooking dinner? Quality control is present.
Walking from one room to another? Congratulations, you now have a 90-pound shadow.

And if you like dark-colored clothes…



Welcome to German Shepherd hair. It’s on your shirt. It’s in your truck. It’s in your food. It’s somehow in places the dog has never even been.

And it NEVER. GOES. AWAY.

They’re loyal, brilliant, protective, hilarious, clingy, hairy little psychopaths, and I wouldn’t trade ours for anything.

But Odin is the result of WORK, not just genetics.

So before The Heart of the Beast convinces you to bring home that adorable German Shepherd puppy…

Just know you’re not getting Odin.

You’re getting a full-time training partner, a personal bodyguard, a bathroom supervisor, a professional shedder, and a furry toddler with a set of teeth. 😂🐾

And, if you need help with your training…I may know a guy 🕵🏻‍♂️ 🤔

Signed,
Someone currently covered in German Shepherd hair. 🐕

It is with a VERY heavy ❤️ that I announce the passing of an extremely special pup. He was one of my first clients when I started my training business and did every level of training that I offered (puppy, basic OB and advanced OB) gaining his well deserved certificates along the way. His owner learned a lot along the way and even gained enough confidence and encouragement to take him through his AKC Canine Good Citizen test and passed with flying colors. Noah was given a very good life and couldn’t have asked for a better human to spend it with. You’re over the 🌈 bridge now Noah, where you’ll always be “such a good boy”! Keep smiling buddy ❤️ 🐕 🥇
