Nina has learned good obedience on and off leash. She heels now and I can enjoy walking with her. Dave has truly mastered training.

We can't speak highly enough of David and how much he helped our family. My boyfriend and I have a…read more2 year old Bluetick Coonhound, Charlie. Starting when he was about 6 months we were having behavioral issues with him in the home. It started with resource guarding and food aggression, and overtime escalated to aggression toward us. We constantly walked on eggshells around him. It even got to the point of when we would come home from a walk Charlie wouldn't let us take his collar off. He would growl, snarl and bare his teeth, and turn on us. We had to use a baby gate as a "shield" to get to our bedroom. We didn't feel safe in our own home and no other trainer was able to help us. I had been bit twice up to this point. We debated rehoming Charlie, had almost lost all hope, broken hearted, and felt like we failed him. Upon reaching out, before we even met David, he reassured us he would be able to help. During our in-person evaluation with David he told us Charlie is a dominant dog and he is at the top of the pack. We needed to train with Charlie to regain our place at the top of the pack. Not only would it strengthen our bond with him but we would feel safe again and regain control of our home. Charlie spent two weeks at Trouwe Hond and came home yesterday. The confidence we have gained with David's training can't be put into words. Charlie is completely different, he is happy again and our family is whole again. We are SO grateful for the time and dedication David gave not only Charlie but us as well. We still have a lot of training ahead but we are so excited to continue learning with our boy.

This is my first puppy, and she taught me how to be a good dog parent as much as she taught my pup. We first had a terrible experience with a trainer who used punishment techniques and pinch collars.

We are so thankful to Robin and team for all they've done and all they continue to do. We're getting a 2nd dog this week (another Entlebucher mountain dog) and will be bringing him in next week.

During a storm she…read moreeither did not show up or failed to contact me when she arrived at my apartment then charged me for a missed appointment/late fee ON TOP OF the class fee that I did not even receive, for what she claims not waiting for her arrival at the door. Claims she called but I contacted her and left a VM and heard nothing and had no missed calls from her and explained that and she still charged the fee. Clearly just a miscommunication somehow but shows very poor business management and customer service on her end. That just didn't settle well with me. Worked out anyways as I have sense found a trainer that is less pricy, and takes more integrity in her training/business. Have had much more efficient results at a fraction of the cost! Will be referring people to her instead unfortunately after this extremely unsettling experience.

My boy Apollo gets the full treatment every 8 weeks. However, she introduced me in May to Eric Matthew who is expert in terrier grooming, and after yesterday's appointment all fears were vanquished. He did a superb job and I feel totally confortable continuing Apollo's sessions with him every eight weeks.
