I m not really the type of person who writes reviews but my experience with Best in show pet resort has really inspired me to write this one. My dog Bennie is a rescue that was saved from a beach in Puerto Rico where he was dumped like garbage and left to die.
Needless to say, when he came into our lives, he was insecure, fearful and timid and we had no experience with rescues or these behaviors.
The fearfulness quickly turned into aggression towards anyone that didn t live in my house and severe leash aggression developed towards other dogs.
Anyone who has a dog with aggressive tendencies knows how it can turn your life upside down.
We have had him for two years and have had to alter our lives to keep everyone safe.
We hired a couple of trainers who had no idea how to work with Bennie and one that told us to euthanize him because he is too much of a liability.
We love our dog and adopted him knowing he wouldn t be perfect and not giving him a chance was not an option.
Our family has had to vacation separately since we adopted him because all the boarding places I have contacted either wouldn t take a dog that was not friendly or would kennel him with no human interaction.
A friend mentioned to me that her Rottweiler, who can also be unpredictable, had gone to Best in show Pet resort and they were completely accommodating so I called and made an appointment for Bennie.
Carlos and Joe came out to greet Bennie for his evaluation and as soon as Bennie saw them he lunged aggressively and was trying to bite them.
Unfortunately, they weren t able take his leash and l knew exactly how this was going to go for us since we had been turned away from numerous places before.
I was beginning to lose hope, but instead of turning us away, Carlos just said to me every dog is different and Bennie is just going to need a different approach.
The staff at best in show are true dog lovers and really care about making every dog feel welcome regardless of their issues.
Carlos has been working with Bennie for a couple of weeks now and never in my wildest dreams could I have imagined that Bennie would come this far in such a short amount of time. Carlos took the time knowing how unpredictable my dog was and was willing to give him a chance.
With time and patience, Bennie has learned to trust him and has acclimated so well to the facility.
While Carlos has mainly worked with Bennie, he has gained enough trust to allow Joe to walk him and interact with him as well.
Bennie is slowly learning to trust all the staff members who are all equally caring and patient.
Best in show Pet resort has given my family hope that we can have relatives over for the weekend or take a family vacation in the future and know that our dog has a place to go where he will be happy, safe and surrounded by people who love all dogs despite their flaws.
