"Here?s the thing- it all comes down to trust. Who are you going to trust with the most precious thing in your life? Let?s face it ? our dogs are like our kids, right? I met Ross and Kelly at the park seven years ago after I got my very first dog. I watched them with their ?pack? for weeks. I thought, ?Who are these lunatics? How come they are running and jumping and laughing and rolling all over the ground with their dogs??!? I looked around at the other dog walkers who were walking around the park with their dogs as if they were underwater (while talking on a cell phone and smoking at the same time!). My dog joined the pack right away and then I began to see such amazing changes. The pack socialized her. They taught her how to become a well-rounded dog in all aspects. As the pack leaders, Kelly and Ross over-see all of their ?play? and make sure things stay friendly, let the dogs work things out amongst themselves and learn from each other and, of course, they always know exactly when to step in when things start to escalate.
They know SO much about ?all things dogs?. They live, breathe and sleep dog. I?ve never seen people work so hard to continually keep these dogs physically AND mentally stimulated.
I then got another dog who was very unsocialized. Through much patience, Ross and Kelly (and the pack!) taught him how to be a better dog - and he is now great with other dogs.
My dogs come home happy and tired. They eat dinner and pass out. I know for a fact that a good dog is an exhausted dog!!!
