We thought we had a "good dog" that was just going through the puppy/young adult phase of being restless and rambunctious. Our 1.5 year old German Shepherd was very impulsive, easily overstimulated and quite reactive (He came from a working line). Following a poor interaction with one of his owners he began expressing some dominance/aggressive behaviors - which led to a bite that didn't break skin and ultimately changed the home dynamic to the point where dog and owner could not co-exist due to the loss of trust on both ends of the relationship. A 6 week board and was recommended and we scheduled a dropoff date. Myles and Courtney encouraged us that they were confident the relationship was salvageable. They pointed out not only what our GSD needed to work on, but more importantly what WE needed to work on - as there were also things we were doing that were further reinforcing these negative behaviors. Today marks Day 11 of having our GSD home and we have had zero issues. Doggo has been reunited with his owner and they are back to being best buds but with a new respect for one another. Myles and Courtney were very responsive through the process, we had multiple visits during the 6 weeks and a house visit on the last day where our dog was dropped off and we went over a few last details. We have seen significant changes in the areas we sent him for and have made sure to continue to reinforce everything we've learned and it has made for a very easy transition back into our home. I would most definitely recommend these services. Thank You!
