Training Testimonials
Erich Grasso is a natural talent, born with a gift in understanding the psychology of dogs. Immersed in a household full of dogs as a child, Erich developed fundamental skills early on, beginning his journey and lifelong passion with canines. Over the years, Erich has trained and developed his talent and is able to yield extraordinary results. He has a quiet confidence and exudes a calm, positive energy.
We are not a facility and consist of a small, personable, hands on staff. When training dogs in our home, we involve them in normal, everyday activities, similar to what they will experience in their own homes. We train them to be "livable," a basic term that is so overlooked nowadays.
We train our dogs to be stable, neutral pack members, who co-exist with various types of dogs and livestock, located at our home.
Our training extends to taking your dog to various public places and socializing him or her. We take them on car rides to the park, visit friends' homes and immerse them in diversified social settings. This is a very important and integral part of our technique, resulting in a stable and trustworthy canine companion.
We are a family with six young children and live in a condo building among the skyscrapers of downtown Chicago. In our search for the family's first pet, we came across Grasso Shepherds. Overall, our experience with Erich and Grasso Shepherds was a delight and we recommend them to friends and family who are looking for an informed expert that delivers a top-notch quality product (and family member!)
I should admit that my testimonial will be biased because I consider Erich Grasso one of my few, very close friends. This relationship began over seven years ago when I asked the vet for a reference for a “dog trainer” who could assist me with my then 10-week-old German Shepherd. The girl at the desk handed me a business card and said, “Trust me, don’t call anyone else.” Thank God I took her advice.
Erich was recommended to us as the best dog trainer around. He lived up to that expectation and then some. In summary, engaging Erich to help us with Whiskey’s behavior was an unmitigated success. It is a pleasure for us to be a part of Whiskey’s vastly improved quality of life.
We've had a great time working with Mrs. Connecticut 2014. We were able to find her the perfect shepherd companion to compliment her family and lifestyle.
A very nice protection dog we sold to @frenchmontana that was featured in Billboard magazine.
