Quotes:
“He’s the most important pup that’s here.”
“This is the highlight of his week. This is what he lives for and enjoys, we’re not going to take that away from him.”
“When Bryce first started coming in, he was a little biter, and he just was a little timid, a little scared. That’s why he bit. And after weeks of training, you could just see that he and our trainer had this bond like he never bit her. When he saw her, he was in heaven. And with her kind guidance and all the skills that she taught him, he just really thrived and flourished.”
