Romeo Bradeanu
Specialist Dog Trainer at Royvon
Romeo is a skilled trainer at Royvon Dog Training & Hotels, specialising in obedience and addressing behavioural challenges such as reactivity, anxiety, and aggression. He’s known for his completely force-free approach, ensuring dogs learn and thrive in a supportive environment. Unlike balanced trainers, Romeo’s methods are entirely punishment-free, focusing on building trust and positive behaviours without the use of aversive techniques.
Surrounded by dogs from a young age, Romeo’s journey began with his first companion, a Doberman, sparking a passion for understanding dog behaviour. With a family background in professional dog training and grooming, he developed a deep expertise in handling all types of temperaments, working effectively with both anxious and aggressive dogs.
For over 15 years, Romeo has been dedicated to training dogs using modern, gentle techniques that create happy and well-behaved companions. At Royvon, he continues to expand his knowledge through IMDT workshops as he works towards full membership. Romeo’s commitment to positive, force-free training fosters confidence and well-being in every dog he works with, helping them build lasting bonds with their families.

What Customers said on Mimi
Mimi was amazing. Now both my dog and I understand each other a lot better. Whenever I say Mimi’s name, my doggie gets so excited. I strongly recommend Mimi if you have an introvert dog like mine.

What Customers said on Anna
I cannot recommend Royvon Merthyr Tydfil enough, and in particular Anna. Her knowledge of all things GSD is phenomenal. She has shown us, guided us and continues to patiently mentor both my husband and myself, in helping our gorgeous boy, Iori, with his reactivity. If I could bottle her up and take her home I most certainly would.
Izadora Mee
Iori's Owner
Very professional and knowledgeable. Helped me immensely. My puppy is now much calmer and wounds are healing nicely with no new ones. Would definitely recommend.
