🐾❤️ Why reactive & working dogs will always have a special place in my heart…
Growing up, I spent as much time as I could on farms, riding quad bikes while the dogs rounded up sheep and cows. 🌾🐕 Being around working dogs from such a young age gave me a real appreciation for their instincts, intelligence and needs.
But my passion for reactive dogs is a little more personal. ❤️
My grandma and I have always had a soft spot for the dogs who need a little extra love. Our beautiful Cassie was highly reactive and had been trained as a fighting dog. Although she never completely overcame her struggles, with time she mellowed and began accepting more and more people. She taught me that patience, understanding and compassion can make a difference, even when progress comes in the smallest steps. 🐾
That’s why at sofetch, I believe every dog deserves to be understood, not judged. Whether they need space, confidence, patience or an adventure to burn off that working-dog energy, I want to help them feel safe, fulfilled and happy. 🌿❤️
Every dog has a story, and I want to help them write a happier chapter. 🐶
Have you got a reactive pup or a working breed at home? I’d love to hear about them in the comments! 👇💕
