If youāre lucky enough, youāll have the privilege of getting a dog who totally shifts your views on dog ownership.
Iām not talking the puppy woes, those are inevitable. Iām talking reactivity, selectiveness, pure athleticism, smarter than you style thinking, and so much more. These are the dogs we get thinking, weāre going to do so much!!! And then are slammed with the reality of how much work it is just to do the bare minimum.
So youāre reading this thinking, how is that lucky? Well you see, youāre going to learn all the ins and outs of your dog, Iām talking no secrets. No one will know your dog better than you and the trainer you inevitably hire. You will become creative in your exercise plans, mental and physical. You will become hyper aware of your surroundings while remaining as calm as possible. You will learn to communicate with your dog in a way you maybe didnāt think possible. You may even find yourself dabbling in dog sports. Thatās why youāll be lucky.
And to those who have been blessed with the easy dogs, no shade! A happy little idiot is *chefs kiss* š¤š¼ But the happy little idiots arenāt everyoneās experience in dog ownership.
Bauer, the boy who shifted my views of being a dog owner & trainer, I love you forever š¤š½
