I can’t even tell you how much I’ve gone through to get Odin the Mali to the point he is at now. I never thought I’d make it with this dog.

It took me forever to figure out why he hated or aka feared or didn’t respect me.

I was terrified of him.

He had turned on me numerous times.

No trust for me was there at all with this dog.

I wanted nothing to do with him after the constant being growled at and actually having him turn around and hold his ground against me.

Then I figured it out….

He loves Gary, Odin decided that guarding Gary was his job after I went away with the other dog Maisey that I retrained and found a great home for.

Then I came home to Odin changed.

He is a retired police dog so super smart but he really is confused about his new life. Who does he need to listen to? Who is he supposed to lay his life on the line for? He constantly guarding Gary was the problem and now that we have realized that and changed all of that Odin gets to be a good dog with me and no longer have to think about just fully being on guard anymore.

Now Odin will lay with me, I’ve taught him some new tricks, gives his belly finally etc etc.

Now Odin has a home 🏡 because he isn’t a dog that can just go to anyone or anywhere.

Odin I’ll finally say it - you are home 🏡

Great day playing with our horses in Alberta at Triple 7 arena
