Robert is a very good dog trainer, the best one we have found yet. I would recommend him to anyone. Our little dog went from a nervous, barking spastic dog to a much more calm dog.

I am very satisfied with the service provided to me by Weatherwax Dog Training. The trainer engaged me in the process of addressing my dog's behavioral issues to bring about a positive change. He answered all my questions and concerns adequately in a way that I could understand.

Our two Yorkie boys (littermates) had suddenly decided they didn’t like each other anymore and were having absolutely terrible fights and we were having to keep them separated for fear they might kill one another. We had Robert Weatherwax come to our home and within 10 minutes he had our dogs side by side and after only 2 visits they are back to playing and getting along again! His training worked great! He was very professional and friendly and has some fascinating stories! We are so thankful to have found him and if we ever have any other issues he will be the first person we call! We would recommend him to anyone needing help with their dogs!

Mr.Weatherwax did such an amazing job with our puppy! He has taught her to stay and walk on a leash in no time at all. His wealth of knowledge is amazing. He is so kind with our fur baby and I am so pleased! Below you will see pics of her sitting and laying down while he is working with her. I highly recommend his services!

Words can not describe how much we appreciate Robert Weatherwax and all his dedication, hard work, care, understanding, kindness, knowledge and patience with our rescue Beauregard. Wow!!! After only a few months, we went from a wild uncontrollable outside farm dog to a in house, mannerly, tamed and manageable family member. He not only trained our Beau but helped us, trained us on how to deal with this type of dog. Not only that but we have 2 other dogs that we needed help with interact with and live with in peace. Robert gave us the tools and tips to help us at home. We also loved be able to tell Robert the problems we were having at home and he would work at our home on the issues we were having. With his help we solved these issues so we could keep Beau in our home and live in peace. Most dogs are on the streets and in shelters because people don’t take the time to find a dog trainer or take the time to understand why the animal is misbehaving. With the Robert you have his book or you can have him in person as well!! We loved having both options, plus after a few months, we have a new dog that fits in our house and we are one big happy family because of the Weatherwax way of training. We consider Robert part of the family now. Our Beau loves Robert and is so happy when Robert comes. We can not thank Robert Weatherwax for all he has done for our Beau, our family and ourselves. We are better people and better dog owners because of the Weatherwax way!! God bless you Robert!!! We are so blessed to have you as our friend and dog trainer!!! You are a true blessing!! Worth every penny!!

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
It's not complicated; I just don't want people thinking it can all be fixed in one lesson. See above for my pricing
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have forgotten more than most trainers will ever learn. I am intuitive in my training so I learn from every dog I work with...
How did you get started doing this type of work?
It was assumed that I would be a dog trainer before I even thought about what career path I would take.
