Denise reaches out to me after her family adopted a “Potcake” puppy from a wonderful organization in the Caico’s Islands.
The organization takes in stray/ feral dogs that otherwise roam the streets and are often times subjected to abusive situations.
Generally when a puppy is exposed to this type of treatment at a young age it results in a fearful and under socialized puppy.
I could not be more proud of Denise. She was determined to make sure that Gracee’s past will not define her future. Through several trainings with me I had the pleasure of watching Gracee and Denise form a strong relationship.
First starting slow with neighborhood walks and eventually trips to the bookstore, pet store, and even the airport to board a plane!
Denise did a wonderful job of practicing everyday to build Gracee’s trust and confidence. Taking every opportunity as a chance to show Gracee something new.
Today I am happy to announce that Gracee enjoys playing with children, other dogs, and spending time with her family.
