Testimonials
“I found Dominic’s Kennel through an internet search. I had owned German Shepherds for most of my life and really wanted to have a go with a Malinois. It turned out I got really lucky finding Dominic on my first phone call. On my initial phone call with him, he really took the time to figure out what I was looking for in a dog and why I wanted to have a Malinois. I could tell right off that he genuinely cared about the animals and was not interested in just making a sale. This really resonated with me. At the time of the call he did not have any puppies available, and said he would be having a breeding soon. Fast forward a few months and I was meeting Freya(my female) for the first time! Let the journey begin! I didn’t realize at the time that this was also going to get me involved with a great group of dog enthusiasts and some amazing trainers, Dominic being one of them. The experience has turned out to be more than I ever could have hoped for. I now have two amazing dogs from Dominic…yes two!! And a group of wonderful new friends. I have learned so much about dog training and dog sports over the past year. It’s been an amazing experience. If you’re thinking about getting a Malinois or Dutch shepherd, or want to train the dog you already have, give NorthEast Detector Dog a call. You won’t regret it!”

“I have had the pleasure of knowing Dominic Rozzi for the last 25 years. For many years I have turned to Dominic for puppies for my training program. Dominic is someone I trust for his knowledge of dog breeding and training. Dominic is now a valued member of my North Edge K9 team training Military Veterans with PTSD dogs. He also shares his vast knowledge of PSA training, as a past judge and competitor. I am honored to work with Dominic and highly recommend his services.”

“I first met Dominic in 2015 while doing basic obedience training with my German Shepherd, Luna. In 2016, Dominic and his team began training service dogs for the nonprofit I am part of, K9s on The Front Line. Having worked with Dominic on a personal and professional level, I can say that his ability and passion for anything related to K9 training are unmatched. The guidance he provides to Veterans during our service dog training program is life-changing for them and his interest in their well-being and success is sincere and heartfelt.”
