Testimonials from Our ClientsThe following are true testimonials from our grateful clients.
Hi Rick, Thank you once again for all that you did for my little Ruffles. As you very well know, Ruffles is everything for me and has saved my life so to speak. Having this with his sudden behavior problems and anxiety, I thought that nothing could be done, but you and your training proved me and all the vets wrong. Thank you for having my little Ruffles back to the sweet guy he has always been, and for helping him learn such valuable lessons. Here is his Dogster page, so you can keep an eye on some of his activities: Dessi
Dear Rick, We are writing to let you know how grateful we are to you for your help with Boxer and Diggetty. Since they attended Level I and Level II they have been a delight. We still have a hard time believing that you were able to transform the behaviors of our six year old dogs without dampening their spirited natures. They are still playful, fun-loving, cuddly companions yet now they behave well within the limits we've set for them. We are able to take them out for walks without struggling to maintain control and without having to worry that they will erupt with anxiety when we see another dog. We'll never be able to thank you enough. Please don't hesitate to let us know if we can ever serve as testimonial witnesses to your talent and hard work. With our many thanks, The Jacklin Family
Just wanted to tell you that Cash has grown up and has become the perfect gentleman. I feel totally confident that I can take him anywhere without a problem. We go to horse shows and he interacts with other dogs, big and small, and he can go to the dog park without any problems either. He's a changed dog! Thanks for everything. Jessica Lundgren
Thanks so much for the difference you made in Abbie's life. Your training has enabled her to look at people as possible friends instead of being convinced everyone was out to hurt her. Also, your suggestions regarding ongoing socialization have helped her to be calm in large groups of people, such as on charity walks, and calm at the dog park when other dogs are misbehaving. Before we brought her to you we were not able to have groups of people visit our home. Now she welcomes visitors politely by sitting and offering her paw (instead of lunging at them to bite). Thanks. You saved another dog. Debbie and Paul
I wanted to send you an official 'thank you'. What can I say? I have a new dog and I have you to thank. Oscar says 'thanks' too. He had the best time with you and Jasper. Thank you for teaching us both and helping us find our new found confidence. We look forward to Level III and getting together for a trip to the beach. Thank Kerry for being Oscar's 'mom' while he was at your house. Oscar and I are so glad we found Trinity Dog Training. Thank you for being such good friends too. Francine Macaluso
We cannot begin to tell you how much we all appreciate what you have done for our family. Micki has always been a loving dog, but now she is calm and obedient. She seems to enjoy being the dog and we are enjoying being the leaders. We never imagined things would be this nice. We are now able to take her on outings we wouldn't have dared to before. We have been to the park and for walks outside our neighborhood. The three of us go on walks almost every night. You have opened up a whole new world for Micki and for us. We can never thank you enough. We recommend you and your training company to everyone we know that has a dog. Micki's been meeting the other dogs in the neighborhood - we think she's telling all her new friends about you and Jasper. Bob & Cheryl Wildasin
Hi Rick, we want to thank you for all that you have done for Samson and for us in helping to guide him. He is really a wonderful dog and we now understand what we need to do to keep him happy and safe. Amy Pointer
Hey Rick, I just wanted to say THANK YOU for all of your help. Boy I sure learned a lot, but my pack leading Momma learned a lot more and we sure do get along great now. We understand each other. The whole family is a lot of fun now. Boy they pick up pretty quick on the training. Ha, they thought it was me that had to learn. Anyhow, tell Jasper he will always be my buddy and thanks for the help. He's a pretty cool dude. Your pal, Muddy Muddy (owner Karen May) - Graduate of Level I and II
Rick is an amazing guy. I previously took Soldier (my miniature pincher) to obedience classes where he failed miserably. Within 5 minutes Rick had Soldier walking in heel, sitting, and actually paying attention. He taught my heathen some manners. More importantly he taught me how to keep it up. I tell everyone I know with a dog to get in touch with Rick. Michelle Umstead
Our 4-year-old Bloodhound, Madison, began regularly chewing on inappropriate objects in the house. She also was aggressive to our other dog in the presence of treats or food. In addition, the move from a large, private yard to a neighborhood with a large dog population and lots of community property made leash-walks a hair-raising event (literally!). Between destroying new bedding ensembles and being uncontrollable on a leash, I had had enough, and began doing research on dog trainers in the area. I have to admit, I was skeptical about anyone being able to train Madison as she presented several key challenges to training. Previous efforts at training her had revealed that she had little drive to please people, was not food motivated, and was often fearful of new people or in new situations. During hours of searching, I perused Trinity Dog Training’s website and was impressed by their training philosophy and experience... I particularly liked that Trinity Dog Training stood behind their training for the life of the dog; if I had a problem in the future, I could call them up and receive advice at no additional charge. As the weeks progressed, Madison looked forward to her training sessions, and her behavior at home improved and her confidence grew. The training principles were common sense, fair, and easy to implement at home. At last, Madison understood her place in our home and what was expected of her…and I could walk Madison and Moose in our neighborhood without fear of a situation getting out of control. Within a month of beginning training, the destructive behavior ceased. In addition, our relationship changed. She began to respect my husband and me. Staff members at work began to notice that Madison’s shyness was lessening. We are continuing to work to lessen her fear of strangers, but her progress has been remarkable since we began working with Trinity Dog Training. Based largely upon the success with Madison, I have referred many clients to Trinity Dog Training and am thrilled to say that they report great satisfaction with their experience. I feel that canine companionship is not a human right or even a necessity - it is a luxury, and as humans the onus is on us to provide for our canine companions. If you want the best possible relationship with your canine companion, consider training with Trinity Dog Training. Donna M. McWilliams, DVM, MA
I wanted to take a brief opportunity to Thank you for all that you have done to help me with Taylor. As a single guy with no kids, my dogs, Taylor and Chelsea, mean the world to me. I used to be ashamed when people came to my home to visit and Taylor would jump up. I knew that she was not being aggressive, just friendly; still I used to dread having people come over and be assaulted by her greeting. I am now very proud of her behavior when we are at home and in public. The greatest complement I got came from my 11 year-old nephew. During the holidays, he commented on the difference and said she was doing very well. Our training sessions have now progressed to more public areas and I am happy to report that she does very well and doesn’t break her commands. I will be starting her work as a therapy dog soon and hope that I can bring some joy to people who may need some cheering up. I have also had great success applying the same principles I learned in our lessons with Taylor to teach Chelsea. Thanks again for all the help. Mark Downing, DVM
Deb and I would like to extend our sincerest 'thank you' for the amazing job you did training Chappy. I have to admit, despite your claim that you could train 'any dog,' we were skeptical and, of course, believed that our dog would be the exception to your rule. How wrong we were! In just 10 short days, you turned our little monster into the nicest, most disciplined English Bulldog in Orlando... Before we sought your services, we were at our wits end and were very close to finding a new home for Chappy... ... We just didn't have the time, patience or skills to break his bad behaviors. Fortunately, you did. Now Chappy is in our family to stay! Chris, Deb, Isabelle & Chappy Oliver To read more about Chappy's Boot Camp story click here.
You have motivated me to work more consistently with Rusty. It is amazing how much difference just a little practice makes! ...He was going for the street and a car was coming...I called the come command and he did respond... he made a bee line for me as the car passed. It was like in slow motion or tunnel vision – I was so focused on Rusty. I gave him lots of praise when it was over and he responded to that. It was amazing!... A little practice goes a long way. Also, there is a huge difference in how he reacts to strangers. Nancy
Thank you so much for the wonderful pictures of Hank. He misses you tremendously. Hank is doing such a great job! We incorporate his training into our daily activities with him. Thank you so much! Our friends were so impressed with how well behaved he has become! Hank sends you a hug and a kiss! Jen and Bill Pascual
Charley wanted me to send you a note that he has been practicing on a regular basis. I might say he is really responding. He does love to take his walks and I know that he does miss his #1 trainer in the whole wide world. Charley and I both thank you for training us. You are very good at your profession. We hope all is well with you and your business is thriving. Thanks again for all you did for Charley and myself. Also Kodi says hi. John McFarlin
I WANT TO THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART FOR ALL THE HELP YOU HAVE BEEN TO US IN TEACHING CLARA SOME RULES AND THE RIGHT WAY TO BEHAVE. I DON'T KNOW WHAT WE WOULD HAVE DONE WITHOUT YOU. YOU WERE AN ANGEL SENT FROM HEAVEN FOR US. I DON'T HAVE TO WORRY WHEN PEOPLE COME TO STAY NOW BECAUSE I HAVE MUCH MORE CONTROL OVER HER. SHE IS A VERY LOVING DOG JUST A BIT HARD FOR A 72 YEAR OLD LADY TO TAKE CARE OF. YOU WERE WONDERFUL AND I HOPE YOU'LL STAY IN TOUCH WITH US. Carol & Bibbi Sonzogni
My name is Bongo Rosas and I'm a boot camper graduate. I was in boot camp because my parents love me very much but were a little confused on how to talk to me. I'm glad they sent me to you. You are able to talk doggie language and I felt like I was finally being understood. I learned that it's okay to listen to humans because the more I listen, the more they love me. The best part of boot camp is that you taught my parents doggie language as well! I feel like my parents and I understand each other better and enjoy each other more because of it. Now they know that my frowning face is only because of all my wrinkles...not because I'm unhappy! I really miss learning from you, but enjoy home more after you came into our lives. Thanks! "Bongie" Rosas |
