Bobs Pet Stop Inc.

Earlier this year I rescued a 10 month old Jack Russel Terrier Mix. Our rescue pup came to us unpredictable, high strung, and most importantly, aggressive towards men and other dogs. What changed the game was when she jumped up almost four feet and nipped a maintenance man in the arm. I was horrified and didn't know if I could even keep her. I called Mr. Bob of Bob's Pet Stop to come over for a consultation. On our first meeting, Mr. Bob didn't even meet our JRT. He first focused on what we as owners could be doing in terms of our daily interactions with her to establish control, which was a real eye-opener. During a different session, he showed me how to walk her, which I was afraid to do as she barked, lunged and overall stressed both of us out. Working with Mr. Bob and using the Gentle Leader collar gave me confidence to be able to walk her on my own. One of my favorite sessions, Mr. Bob brought his dog Sassy to work on introducing our JRT politely to other dogs, as well as walking without tugging and barking. He showed me how to combine the Gentle Leader and a prong collar, which has really made a HUGE difference in her behavior. He showed me our dog is not "un-trainable", just head-strong and excitable. With continued work, I look forward to years of joy with her! Mr. Bob doesn't follow one training method or the other, he picks and chooses whatever is best for your particular situation. Since meeting Mr. Bob, he has always been available via phone or email to give me advice, which to me is almost priceless. Even when my vet recommended we put our dog on medication, Mr. Bob was there to talk me through this decision. I could go on and on detailing why you should trust Mr. Bob with your dog and HIGHLY recommend him! Thanks Mr. Bob!! Maria and Cannoli

Bob is a fantastic dog trainer. We recruited Bob to help up get our dog's jumping, tugging, and biting under control. Within four lessons my wife and I understood what we had to do to change the behavior. Every bit of it worked. Bob doesn't come in with a set agenda; he sits with you to understand your own situation and goals and develops a plan to tackle the issues. Although his services are not cheap, they are well worth the investment. If more issues come up we will certainly be returning to Bob for help. Thanks!

My year-old golden retriever was completely out of control. Walking her was a nightmare- pulling and jumping. Bob fitted her with the gentle leader and showed me how to use it. It was a miracle. She walked by my side, stopped picking up every piece of trash in the street and I am able to control her and keep her from jumping on the neighbors. Another problem was that she would not come when we called her. Bob taught us how to use the field trainer and reward her with treats. Thanks to Bob,I am now enjoying my dog rather than just struggling with her.
