FirstBarkThis has been a fantastic experience for me and for my dog. My dog is learning structure and obedience, and I'm learning not just what to say, but how to say it. This one-on-one training has been very informative for me, and has really changed my dog for the better. And the training itself has been just as advertised: gentle but effective.

We consulted Robert for a behavioral assessment on Big Boy, a pittie mix we were fostering. He fit us in at the last minute. The visit was amazing. Not only did he confirm that Big Boy was not aggressive, he spent time and gave us instruction on how to diminish jumping and pulling. Big Boy was taking instruction almost immediately. I swear it was like going to the Dog Whisperer. Robert even recorded a video message for Big Boys new owners. Highly recommend!

My daughter adopted 5 year old Roadie a few months ago. We had no idea how he and my spoodle Kolbi would get along and unfortunately we had quite a bit of aggression from Roadie. I remembered meeting Robert at Market Basket in Orange and looked up his company. Once I called him, he had no problems coming out to our place to work with both Roadie and Kolbi. Robert has been phenomenal in making sure both my daughter and myself are completely comfortable in their training. The dogs are now lying next to each other and not engaging at all. The barking and jumping have stopped and we are making exceptional strides of progress. In my photos we’re using soft muzzles but they’ve been removed from both dogs with no issues whatsoever. If you’re looking for someone to help with training for your pet, I can promise you will definitely not be disappointed in Robert’s abilities.

A few months ago I adopted 5 year old Roadie. He had a troubled background, always being moved from family to family, possibly abused, and had anxiety and obedience and aggression issues. Mr. Robert has gently worked with us both and helped us to develop an easy, calm relationship, and we are in the early day of assessing Roadie’s potential as a service dog. Mr. Robert has truly made this loving partnership between Roadie and me possible.

Robert has been working with our blue heeler Smokey for the past 2 months. Our goal was to get Smokey ready for foster children to join our home. Robert has done wonders with training Smokey on obedience and socialization. My favorite thing about Robert is his patience. There are days Robert shows up and Smokey does not want to listen at all but instead of getting frustrated, Robert quickly gives Smokey a recap and continues with that days lesson. And to add on to all of that we’re always happy to support Veteran owned businesses!
