Dog Training Credentials
Why book your virtual dog training lessons with Ralf?

Experience Matters!
Ralf has extensive experience working with dogs of all breeds—common and rare. People know Ralf for German Shepherds, but his work with obedience and behavioral cases includes many others, including pretty much all bully breeds you have heard of. Before any specialty, Ralf is, first and foremost, a professional dog trainer. Ralf has trained over 1500 dogs in over 18 years. Especially his experience of working with fearful and aggressive dogs is well-known in the industry, and he has often been the trainer of last resort. Many dogs are only alive today due to Ralf’s efforts. This experience matters when offering virtual dog training lessons. In addition, Ralf has helped resolve hundreds of other behavioral problems over the years. There is no substitute for knowledge and experience. It particularly makes a big difference with virtual dog training lessons.
Ralf is familiar with all ways of training dogs you have heard of and is fluent in all methodologies. He understands all training tools on the market and what they should and shouldn’t be used for. Ralf mostly works with play these days but has long worked with food and understands all aspects of training dogs with food, toys, or leashes and collars. In addition to dog training areas, which most people are familiar with, Ralf used to run advanced dog socializations for timid and aggressive dogs (this was the Doggy Social Club). Further, Ralf learned how to train cancer detection dogs and ran group classes in-person and virtually that actually produced results. Ralf, with his partner Sarah, now also trains highly reliable service dogs.
