There are two types of people when it comes to getting a dog….
The first type? They’ve got a vision. They see the life they want for their dog, and when they finally get that dog, they don’t play around. They go all in. They make it happen. It’s not just about getting the dog—it’s about becoming the kind of person who can raise that dog right. They make sacrifices, they change their routines, they learn what it takes. They put in the work. Early mornings, long walks, training sessions—they do whatever is necessary, because they know if they want the dog to thrive, they’ve got to grow too.
But the second type? Yeah, they have a vision too. They want that perfect picture of life with a dog. But when it comes to doing the work, being honest about the situation they are in and making the personal changes? They fall short. They do what they think is enough, but they don’t push themselves. They’re not willing to change. They keep living the same life, expecting the dog to just fit in. They don’t realize that growth is a two-way street. You can’t expect your dog to evolve if you stay the same. Dogs need leadership, structure, and attention—and that requires you to level up. If you’re not willing to change, don’t be surprised when your dog starts to show the gaps in your effort. It’s not the dog that’s failing, it’s your commitment. If you want that dream relationship with your dog, you have to put in the time, energy, and love to build it.
Listen to me—if you’re gonna get a dog, you’ve got to commit. It’s not just about the dog fitting into your life. You have to step up, make adjustments, and show up every single day. Be the type of person who does what it takes. Don’t just have a vision—live it, breathe it, and put in the work. Your dog deserves that, and so do you. I love you guys and I want to hear from you— I am here to help you level up! #judgementfreezone
