Dog Training Review by Leanne D.

Ralf is a fabulous trainer. We sent our German Shepherd puppy, Zeus, to him when Zeus was about four months old. He worked with Zeus and spent the time that our dog needed. I really liked his combination of play reward, positive reinforcement and only when needed a bit of the negative reinforcement. He spent several session with my son teaching him how to continue to train Zeus. The results were great. It did take time, as he told us it would, for Zeus to settle into his new routine at home (after all he is a dog and you can’t tell him, “continue to do what he said….”). We did have to learn the new vocabulary and commands and continue to use them daily.

Right now, Zeus, at 8 months old and 85 pounds is calmly sitting on the floor, relaxed, and staring at me. He is still learning to “leave it” with the cat but she is starting to be able to walk around on the ground when he is in the same room without him trying to chase or lunge at her. This was a big deal for me to have him well trained enough with commands that I could train him not to chase the cat and our other small dog. Overall, I would highly recommend Ralf and his Happy Dog Training program. Zeus it truly a happy dog!!
