    -------------------------
    All interactions between me and Apollo that might seem "dangerous" or inappropriate are a result of nearly nine years of living together. It took training, patience and nine years for me to be able to tell apart his actual frustration from his playful frustration, which is when he pretends to be growling while he is actually playing a role. No one else is allowed to interact with him this way, never. Angry, frustrated and growling dogs are not funny, and it's not something to have fun with.

    To live with a dog - especially with the rescued ones - is not (always) easy. But: to win the love and the trust of one of those wonderful dogs, is uncomparingly MORE than anything else.
    THANK YOU Valia, for these aspects!!! (It might be too intellectual for most of the people?)
    We ❤ you.

    What a beautiful tribute to such a wonderful dog! How blessed the two of you are to have found each other. The rewards of learning about each other far out weigh any issues. It seems to be in Apollo's case that "love conquers all".

    How I do love this video!!!! and Valia's explanations and experiences with Apollo. I remember the video, when he got lost just a few meter away from grandma's home. His behaving in generell and Valia's "reactions" shows us, how a perfect relationship between a domestic animal and a human being can be. Based on respect, common sense and the will to understand, Valia, I love you!!!!

    Villa,
    You make me cry & laugh!
    I have ny own current "problem child" I'm working with.
    A 4 year old pitty with a tough past.
    Anyway, he sounds like an amazing dog who found just the right home.
    Much as Star 💫 has.
    As a former vet tech I had to laugh 😂 at the "sacrificial vet" comment though-thought I was gonna fall of the bench!
    Be well ❤️‍🩹!

    Valia you made me cry at the end because i feel the same about the cat i have since 6 months...she is really complaining all the time and she is hostile to my newer cat who is only 11 months,but i love her so much because she has a good side that she does show sometime.
    She is like Apollo,very insecure and very anxious....and she look like a bully if we do not understand how she feel deeply...

    Another wonderful video from you. Thank you for sharing Apollo's story. My "problem cat" is the best teacher I've ever had -- learning how to listen and communicate and learning my capacity for strength and patience. If I didn't have to find a way to deal with her, I would not have learned anything.

    Ok, maybe he is not as cute as your little French bulldog who passed from old age (and she is still in many photos, even in this video), but Apollo has his charm in his own way. And I think Bob Dylan's song, "Forever young" fits here. Some dogs just stay teenagers... 🙂

      Not many things are more 'pretentious' than semi-literates using the word 'pretentious' --- do you even know what it means?
      Valia does help many animals - and she also makes kind and thoughtful videos too - is she only allowed to do one or the other then?
