Hike Doggie, the premier dog hiking service dedicated to enriching the lives of dogs through adventure and companionship, is hoping a recent customer review submitted by one of their doggie clients is about to go viral for all the right reasons. “Gunnar,” a four-year old Black Labrador Retriever whose mom is local Denver resident Kristi Gacke, was recently introduced to Hike Doggie and left an epic 5-star Yelp review about his experience on a daylong hiking adventure back on June 16. What he initially thought was just going to be a routine walk around the block in his own neighborhood ended up being, as Gunnar states without a hint of exaggeration, “…the greatest adventure of my life.”

“This first-person pup review on Yelp is definitely a first for us,” stated Kath Allen, founder of Hike Doggie, a franchised business that offers pet parents round-trip excursions to the great outdoors where their soulmate companions receive professional daylong hiking services filled with adventure, snacks, social media snaps, and branded gear, concluding with end-of-day baths. “The moment we spotted the post, we just knew we had to share Gunnar’s five-star review with as many people as possible. What he wrote in his awesome Yelp review perfectly encapsulates what makes our full-service hiking adventures so special for dogs, capturing the very essense of our brand’s mission statement to ‘make dogs as happy as they make us.’”

Written from Gunnar’s own perspective, the review begins with a disclaimer that he’s a real canine and not a paid spokesdog, before launching into a detailed and descriptive narrative of his experience as a Hike Doggie client. Not one to mince words (or barks), he shared that the all-day adventure was the “greatest day of his life, narrowly beating the time he found a half a chicken nugget in a parking lot.” While being transported away to the Rockies in one of Hike Doggie’s climate-controlled “Big Blue Busses,” Gunnar explained he was so excited for the trip itself that only moments after departing from his human owner, he felt he was “…already gone emotionally.” Pretty deep thoughts for a four-legged furbaby.

Less surprised about all the sudden fuss is Gunnar’s dog mom Kristi Gacke, the director of sales and marketing for Denver-based HHM Hotels. “To say he’s still pretty amped up about the experience is an understatement,” she shares. “But Gunnar has always been a very expressive doggie, quite vocal, even back when he was just a puppy. Honestly, I’m really not all that surprised he’s gone and done something viral - he’s kind of been destined for greatness from the day we got him,” she added.

Aside from being humorous and tongue-in-cheek, Gunnar’s Yelp review does include a few specific observations about his daylong hike in the woods. According to what he experienced on that hot day back in June, he discovered 17 sticks, catalogued 43 different smells (some new), and encountered numerous squirrels along the many unique trails they explored. After hours of stimulating fun, Gunnar finally returned back home safe and sound, where he “…collapsed face-first on the floor, slept for six hours, barked once in his sleep, dreamed about chasing a squirrel, and woke up with a leaf still stuck to his butt.”

Gunnar winds down his five-star Yelp review with only one complaint - the fact that Hike Doggie eventually had to bring him back home. He signed off on the post with a signature file of his own, describing himself as the “Founder & CEO of Barkshire Hathaway, as well as the Director of Sniff Operations/Lead Squirrel Intelligence Officer, Good Boy, First Class.”
