😍 big dogs I’ll be ur dogs nEW bff

I’ve been rescuing animals since I was 10. I’m the alpha of the pack.I work with a rescue team on my free time. I’m very affectionate and very very playful. I’m home full time & I train animals. my rescue team use to bring me in for the hardest cases bec I’m able to communicate with both cat and dogs. I’d do behavioral therapy with them. I was always allowed to get close to the most vicious cases.I have a very high fenced yard. I take dogs for multiple walk. We play fight/do toy time, & do yard play time. Your dog will make lots of friends because my pact is big. I have a lot of patience and I never show fear. . I was given a gift when it comes to animals. I can communicate & understand them so so well once I learn their souls language. Animals mean the world to me and I will do whatever it takes to care for them. I’m a very routined & organized person. I’m also very protective over whoever is under my care, as if they were my child in that moment . Nothing will stop me from protecting them against anything thrown at us. Your dog will be treated like family here. They will Sleep in the bed with me, be loved, kissed up, and played with all day. if your dog gets home sick it won’t be for long My gift to communicate with them allows me to transfer my energy Into them, which makes them instantly fall in love & be excited to be here. Other owners have seen this happen. Once your dogs soul & my soul bond It can turn into a life long friendship. That is full of ways to help improve your dogs mind body & soul. I have become my client’s voice because dogs can’t use words to communicate but they still speak & I understand them very well. I show owners how to hear them better. I have helped address many different issue’s & helped the owners truly & deeply understand what their animal was going through. I’ve watched the animal make huge huge progress after being their voice. The pact & I meditate together daily using sound healing therapy. It puts them in deeply relaxed state free of anxiety or worry. Helps them drop their guard & even handle overstimulation better. It’s spiritual playtime in a sense. It allows us to feel one another’s vibration when we are laying next to each other. I show them how our souls can feel the blasts of energy pulsing through & into each other. Just by staying in a deep meditative state with guards down.

This was the worst experience we ever had with a provider. Pior to the booking my wife and I discussed Loki with Cristina. We explained that Loki has anxitiy and some irrational fears. We belive he had some sort of trama as a puppy. Chistina assured us it wouldn't be a issue, and she's worked with other dogs with issues.We also told her he is a high energy dog and needs exersize - which will also help with his anxiety. She said absolutly. We aranged for a 4 night stay. After dropping Loki off at Christina's home, my wife immideitly started getting bad feelings. Within 20 minutes of dropping him off, She started telling us we should by CBD for Loki and get him on medication for anxitiy. As we got on the plane she messages us "he's relaxed now" and "we're doing wonderful" This was at 7pm At 6am the followi`ng morning we had a string of messages from her starting with "I can't do this, this is torture" and a string of complaints about his behaviour. A string of texts back to back with Christina just ranting. Even saying our dog was exibitting eggesive behaviour. We ended up having to make other arangment for Loki, having to get someone to pick him up and basicly ruiend a day of our 3 day vacation. Acording to our friend who picked Loki up ( also one of Loki's regular sitters when available) and my mother who we ended up leaving him with, (my mother does daycare for Loki when my wife and I work, so he's very familiar with him) he was a wreck and scared. Didn't even want to go in the backyard to go to the bathroom - this is at a house is is at almost every day. We have had Loki with 2 other sitters ( one with 4 young children) as well as PetSmart and never had a issue. Never any aggresive behavior. My fist though is she didn't properly exersise Loki, and he had pent up energy, and was "barking" because he wanted to play. Christina's handling of the situation was completly unproffessional. She should have found a way to address the issues, not stress out a client who is taking a short vacation.
