FirstBarkRobert is a brilliant dog trainer! He worked miracles with my 150lb mastiff that hates everyone. Thor has come light years in a short time. I recommend Robert on the highest level.

Robert is great. He cares so much about the dogs and people he trains. It's great to listen to the knowledge he has acquired over the years. He is totally committed to helping you achieve the goals that you have with your dog

I consulted Robert, in a last ditch effort, to train a 3 year old canine, as a service dog for my wife. I realize this would not be easy, as we have had this dog since he was a pup. So we had inadvertently, allowed the dog to create some bad habits. Upon completion, of just the first session, our dogs entire attitude, and focus changed dramatically. After a few more sessions, our dog is obedient, responsive, and devoted, to alert me if my wife has an episode. I could not be happier. He is a True Dog Whisperer!
Robert fixed both my dogs (superhigh) aggression, best dog trainer ever.

We got our Bailey after her breeder was done breeding her at 4 years old. She came to us with having had some good training like house trained. Her personality was submissive and very gentle so she has been easy to handle for the 2 1/2 years we’ve had her. She experienced anxiety with only certain members of our extended family. Robert’s classes were very helpful. He spent a lot of time in our home observing and working with her, especially with the family when they visited. Her symptoms of anxiety have improved over time and it will take time for this issue to resolve. She has no problem being in public places around people and no problem with anyone who comes to our home or we to their homes. It’s a very individual problem which remains a bit of a mystery. We see Robert’s expertise with handling not just the dog’s issues but the owners issues. He has a wonderful, relaxed approach that is very impressive and he gets the job done whatever the problem. It’s evident that he has a real gift when it comes to ‘reading’ dogs minds and changing their behavior when necessary. His time and availability is accessible as much as you need him. He is a good person and dogs know that.
