Who's Walking Who (Northern Nevada)

My labradoodle Luna was a normal three month old puppy, but we wanted to train her to be a part of our family. We looked around a bit and after interviewing Robert we put Luna in his hands. He took her for two weeks and there was a tremendous difference when we got her back. But the training did not stop there. As part of the package we get weekly training sessions for life and if we need Robert to consult on problems he will do that too. Most of the training sessions are really about training the owners more than the dogs. Luna is now about 10 months old and is a well adjusted puppy that walks well on the leash and likes other dogs and people. Luna is such a good dog and I credit the training Robert has given us. I am even starting off leash training and she is doing great on that also. I am very happy with the progress we and the Luna have made in our training. I recommend Who's Walking Who for anyone who wants a well adjusted dog to be part of your family.

After adopting Odin, a 2yr old Australian Sheppard mix from a local shelter, we realized quickly that we were in over our heads. Odin had exhibited extreme separation anxiety (like the chew through a wall kind of anxiety). We have now been with Robert’s program for about a year and what an incredible difference this training has made. We have built a trusting relationship with Odin, gained exceptional obedience skills and begun to unlock Odin’s true potential. This program is designed so that you get out what you put into training. Robert has a wealth of experience and knowledge and will teach you everything you could ever want to know. I would highly recommend Who’s Walking Who.

We have a 2 yr old German Shepherd with insecurity/aggression issues. Dahlia has been a challenging dog from the moment we got her. But we are not the kind that give up because things aren’t going as we expected.We have been through three different trainers/techniques and were looking for someone new. One of the trainers could not come near Dahlia because of her aggression issue and another trainer basically said she had problems and scribbled down a few suggestions on paper for us to try. That was a big expense and even bigger disappointment. Then one day I walked into our local Team Clips for a haircut and started talking with the owner about his well trained lab who greeted patrons entering the shop. He told me about Robert Webb and I grabbed a business card and looked him up on his website. Robert takes your dog for two weeks and goes out daily to socialize in many different types of environments and to do basic obedience training. Yes, it is a hefty cost $$ (for some) but totally worth the investment if you truly love and care about your dog. I wasn’t sure what to expect – how can you change a dog’s behavior in two weeks? But all the socializing he did with her had an impact on her mindset. She didn’t look at people and dogs as the “enemy” anymore when we were out on our daily walks. And I also noticed that when “strangers” came into our home, with her shut up in her pen in the living room, she didn’t act aggressively towards them like she did before. She would just lie in her pen and basically ignore them. That was huge! When our son and his wife came to visit we allowed her to remain "free" because they would be with us for a week. Dahlia bit/nipped him twice within 5 minutes! We called Robert and instead of just giving us suggestions over the phone, he came right on over. After observing Dahlia's behavior, he told our son to take her for a walk around the block and they became instant friends! I never would have thought of that!! Just the fact that he was even willing to come over to the house amazed me - and at no charge ($$)! He truly is committed to these dogs and their owners and doesn’t just leave us to figure things out on our own once he brings the dog back. Offering weekly training classes (at no cost) has also been a huge bonus. And making us sign a paper saying we will come to the classes forces us to commit to continued training – for the good of us and our dog!! What an understanding of human nature he has – the tendency we have to rationalize we are too busy to train our dog today or the weather isn’t to our pleasing, etc. His weekly group class keeps us and our dog connected to the training we both need! And another bonus to having Robert as a trainer is that all the dogs love him! My dog, with "stranger aversion" bonded to him right away. I believe dogs have a "sixth sense" about people and they definitely respect Robert! He has decades of experience training all breeds and has such insight to what makes your particular dog "tick." I highly recommend you give him a try - you won't be disappointed!

I have a 8 month old Goldendoodle and looking to have her trained as a service dog. I was trying on my own to train her but I was only able to teach her to sit. Robert Webb was able to help our puppy calm down enough to walk next to me. She no longer reacts and bark at other dogs on walks. I have attended my first Saturday class and amazed how confident my dog is around other dogs and their owners. Look forward me and my dog learning to work together.
