This is a google review a client of mine left that Google flagged and took down. Worth the read 🤣❤️
Vic is the reason I'm still married.
One beautiful fall afternoon, after consuming too many edibles, my husband convinced me to get a German Shepard puppy. In a better-than-usual mood, I agreed. I've had dogs before, and I am an animal lover, I knew puppyhood was a little annoying but it's never really that bad. WRONG.
German Shepard puppies are Tasmanian devils on amphetamines and no one tells you that until you get one! And then they all chuckle about it like, "Haha! Welcome to the club! Just get through the first 6 months and you'll be fine!" Well, I'll tell you the truth since no one bothered to tell me: You better have a stellar level of physical stamina and endurance, a war chest of mental agility and fortitude, a therapist on standby and some kind of pharmaceutical grade relaxant. Once you get that god-forsaken heathen it is you against a wild animal with limitless energy, an insane level of intelligence that shouldn’t be allowed and an unbreakable will. It’s like the Hunger Games on steroids. May the odds be ever in your favor.
After 4 months with the hellhound on wheels I no longer recognized myself. I looked like Obama coming out of office. My hair had greyed and fine lines appeared on my once youthful face. What’s worse is that I had so many mental breakdowns that I lost touch with reality and no longer know who or where I was. Eventually, God had mercy on my soul and led us to Vic.
If it had not been for Vic, I would have left my husband and cushy lifestyle on the grounds of intolerable cruelty and moved into a studio apartment in a shady part of town just to escapade the sheer madness. I had lost all hope. My world had been cast into shadows. Vic was like an angel floating down from the heavens to lead me through the valley of despair. Miracles are real and I am living proof.
Our puppy got weekly trainings until she was old enough to go to board and train. When she came back she was like a cute little soldier. I couldn’t believe it! Not only had she become bearable, but I quite enjoyed her! Over the bast several months, that little bu****le has really grown on me and I can’t believe I’m going to say this but… I actually love her! And she has become one of the best dogs ever!
Now, don’t get me wrong, I’ve had to put in the work. Just like a willful child you kind of have to beat them into submission and break them like a wild horse. But man, when you do! Our German Shepard, whose name is Nymeria the Direwolf of House Polo first of her name Queen of the Hellhounds, is such a fun dog that I’ve almost forgotten that I went temporarily insane for 6 months!
Thank you Vic, you are a life saver and the most majestic dog trainer in all the land! 10/10 would recommend to anyone losing grip on reality because of a working breed puppy!!!
