Dear Dave:
We just wanted to let you know that having you train Quinn was the best
thing we did for him and for us. When we came to you, we had a recently
adopted 2-yr-old Great Pyrenees/lab mix that weighed 100 lbs. and was
sweet and cuddly in the house, but just didn’t seem to connect with us
outside on our walks. We couldn’t let him off leash because he would run
off after a scent and we’d spend the rest of our walk chasing after him.
He was a rescue, so we had no idea about his past, but he didn’t like to
make eye contact with us and would rather run off by himself than play
with the other dogs.
The two weeks he spent with you were just what he needed. When we came
to get trained that first Saturday, we could already see the difference.
He was making eye contact with us and listening to what we asked of him.
The next week, you met us outside your house with him off leash. We
couldn’t believe this was the same dog! Your photos and regular
updates on his training helped us feel connected to him. The photos of
him at the car dealership and at Petco sitting calmly by himself were
great!
We walk with a group of
other dogs and all our friend keep commenting on what a changed dog
Quinn is. He’s more balanced and happy. The best part is being able to
let him off leash and know that we can get him to come back whenever we
call him. Not only has he connected more with us, but he also plays more
with other dogs. Watching him sprint across the field or romp with his
buddies gives us such pleasure.
He was a dog that had a
rough start in life. No one wanted to invest the time and energy in him
and he came to us untrained and confused. Your training made something
click with him. You also helped us communicate with him. We are now able
to ask him to do something and he does it. It's a win-win situation! Two
weeks with you and our consistent training with him have given us a
wonderful, happy dog!
Thank you,
Andrea and Steve

Dave Raneri is a REAL dog
training professional. My dog had escalated to a dangerous state
with his nervousness and dominance. He was completely out of control. My
dog Alaska had bitten a few people, including my brother. I was
basically unable to have visitors in my house because he would act
erratically. He got loose one day and killed my neighbor's cat. I had
completely lost control of my pet. I had tried everything and I was not
ready to give up on my pet.. I had taken him to one local trainer who
told me I had to put my dog to sleep, I also paid for training sessions
with another trainer who produced absolutely no results. Before I found
Trouwe Hond I also brought him for an evaluation where they told me the
could not train him. It was a nightmare. I finally found Dave and right
away I had a good feeling about him. Even in the evaluation he
approached my situation much differently than the other trainers had. I
signed my dog up for the 2 week boarding program. Still doubtful because
of my bad experiences I arrived for my training session a week into it
and I was honestly amazed by what I saw. My dog was actually responding
to the training. I could not believe it. When I picked him up at the end
he was a completely different dog. He is fun to own again. I never could
even imagine that he would turn out this great. If he can rehabilitate
my dog he can help anyone!
I highly recommend Trouwe Hond K-9 to everybody.

My wife's dog was an absolute psychopath. It had no obedience,
whatsoever. By the very first night, Dave Ranieri knew he had his work
cut out for him. He hadn't seen a dog this bad in a long time, he said.
But he didn't give up there. He stuck through it, and the benefits from
his training are undeniable. Two previous trainers had recommended
almost immediately that we put this dog to sleep, but my wife was
determined to see this through. After some online research, she came up
with Dave's name. At first, I was skeptical. I honestly thought I was
going to pay for these services and get nothing more than a shiny, new
collar out of it. But I can admit when I'm wrong. This guy is the
Captain Quint of dog trainers. Don't get me wrong, he's not a miracle
worker. It's not a singular event. He sets forth the initial motions,
but the rest is up to you. He has instilled the proper lessons and
training into our dog, and it's up to us to see that he continues down
that path. But without him, we would have eventually had to get rid of
him, and I can't think of anybody that would have taken him with the
behavioral patterns he had. I would recommend Trouwe Hond K-9 to anybody
who is in need of dog training. No other dog trainer has shown us
results like Dave can. - Dan Levangie

I just wanted to give you an update on
Harley as it has been about 5 months. She is doing great. We are
extremely pleased with her now. While on the leash she is very good
and still obeys all commands. It has been a great pleasure now to
have her around. Even in the house she listens extremely well and
follows commands, and goes to place with no hesitation, sometimes
she doesn't stay for long periods but overall we are extremely
please. I am trying to work with her some on off leash in the back
yard, that is going to take some time I think, but she does follow
all the basic commands come, heel, down, sit, and place for the most part.
I wanted to
thank you for your work with Harley.
