David Ranieri is, without a doubt, all that his 5 star ratings and testimonials portray. My husband & I adopted a 1 1/2 yr. old bully breed from Friends of Falmouth Dogs rescue (another 5 star operation). We live in RI. Within days of adoption, Mickey began exhibiting unpredictable, (towards people) aggressive behavior. We immediately sought the help of a recommended RI "expert" pit trainer and a Ma. "Behaviorist Vet". One placed him, prematurely in a group class; the other on Prozac. A $1000. later, we saw little difference. David Ranieri was recommended by a friend, whose family was trained by David. David saved our family, with his persistent, patient guidance & probably, Mickey from an unfortunate end. He is a true behaviorist who worked with Mickey on his issues and us on proper handling. Today, we confidently are able to walk Mickey in public parks and in pet stores. He is a complete gentleman and non reactive to people and other canines. Thank you, Dave Ranieri!

I highly recommend Trouwe Hond K-9 - Having Two Uncontrollable Old English Sheepdogs Leave The Household & Return As Two Controlled Old English Sheepdogs Was Amazing. I would have thought they were someone else's. Thank You Dave For Returning The 2 Challenging Children - "Oakley & Kodiak" to us & they are no longer Challenging.. I know The Boys Loved It Too - even if they protested a bit. Again Thank You Oakley & Kodiak

Provided by YP.comWe adopted a one year old black lab from a shelter. After a month or so of trying to train him ourselves, we realized we needed professional help. We could see Raven's potential but he appeared to have ADD. He also exhibited lots of "mouthy" behaviors which made us nervous as we have many young family members. We adopted Raven as we wanted a family dog. We contacted Trouwe Hond and told the owner about our situation. We made an evaluation appointment with him. We discovered our dog didn't have ADD; he's very dominant and was disobeying us on purpose. We agreed to a three week training period with the owner. Each day the owner, Dave, kept us updated with photos and emails. At the end of the three weeks we went to pick Raven up and much to our surprise he was actually sitting, listening, obeying.... We were thrilled but nervous that we wouldn't be able to keep up the training ourselves. Dave has worked with us several times since then and we can call him or email him anytime with questions. We now trust Raven in our home and he's much calmer around small children. He no longer nips at all. Highly recommend this facility. The kennels are so clean, we booked one for Raven when we go away this winter. I feel like Dave, the owner, really cares about our dog!

Provided by YP.comPlease excuse this lengthy testimonial. But my wife and I feel so strongly about your training that we want to share it with whoever may come across it when researching a dog trainer. We hope that this will make a difference for those dog owners out there looking to take their dog to another level of obedience and good manners before they waste their money. As you know, we live in Rhode Island and only learned about your services through your web page. After pouring over your testimonials and speaking with you over the phone, we took the chance and enrolled our 10 month old German shepherd dog, Cyrus, in your three week board and train program. Even though we live 3 hours away we had little choice but to reform Cyrus or get rid of him. Read our complete Testimonial at www.trouwehond.com

Highly recommended for many reason, Trouwe Hond K-9 has much to offer. This is the only place I have found that was able to give me positive results. Dave from Trouwe Hond has been able to tackle a large project with my dog in both obedience training and protection work. He has been able to use different training styles and techniques to get through to my dog and myself. This has been a positive and extremely enjoyable training to do. I would recommend anyone to train here, and see amazing results the first time you go see him.
I enthusiastically recommend Dave to anyone with a dog. He helped us rescue our boy from some bad behavior. When you see his place you see a clean, heated set of stalls, with doors to outside, plenty of equipment for training as well as a large outdoor area complete with a "doggie playground". When you meet him you see a substantial man who is relaxed and friendly with dogs and dog-people. Our dog Jake LOVES him and so do we!
Trouwe Hond K9 offers me a full range of canine services. I have boarded my dogs there, the cleanliness and love for dogs made leaving them for the first time much easier. Training there has taught me how to communicate better with my animals, and even allowed me to put a CGC on my caucasian ovcharka. (No easy task.) Dave maintains a friendly, safe working environment during group training sessions, as well as offering private sessions to get new dogs up to speed. Once you see Dave work his dogs, you'll understand why I highly recommend him as a trainer in any K9 field. This is truly a first class kennel, and training facility.Barbara T.
Bringing our dog to Dave was the best decision we ever made. Thank you for giving us back our family pet.
When I picked up my dog he was a whole new dog. Excellent training skills!!!
