We adopted our shepherd mix Stella from the pet network last summer. She was a sweet dog, but very…read morenervous around other dogs and easily distracted. She would not come when called when other dogs were present. She would bark and pace when visitors came to our house. We consulted with a trainer in Tahoe City where we live who told us to always keep her on leash and that it might be several years before we could even try to trust her off leash. This was disheartening, as I really wanted to be able to hike and let her run free. After some research and a consultation with the local owner of Sit Means Sit, we decided to leave Stella with Bob Webb at the Minden facility for a three-day program. Bob was incredibly personable and took the time to share his credentials and dog training philosophy with us prior to the session. He sent us frequent updates and even pictures during her stay. When we picked her up, I was impressed by the bond that he had quickly formed with her. She clearly liked Bob and responded to him. When we got her home, I could not believe how quickly she responded to the "come" command. She also could do "stay"- even when we walked out of her view. She understood "place" which we use to have her stay on her bed. She heels beautifully both on and off leash. It has been 4 months now since her training, and we hardly use the collar at all. I take her hiking every day off leash, and I trust that regardless of the situation, she will always come when called. Bob was a consummate professional who clearly has made his love for dogs his career. People constantly comment on how well behaved our Stella is, and we owe it all to him!

For decades Guy Yeaman has been offering affordable obedience classes through Northern Nevada…read morecities park and rec. Like other trainers, he has his own style, but certainly  knows what he's doing, and he makes a point of  keeping his classes at a low cost. He  does something I suspect no other trainer in Northern Nevada does: after paying for the initial 6 classes participants can  return FOR FREE as often as they wish until death do the dog part. And here's what I've learned about dog training: It's kind of like learning to play the piano, You can have the best instructor in the world, but it comes down to how often and for how long the owners train their canines on a weekly basis when they are not in class. Guy understands this, which is why he allows owners to return as much as they'd likeand why he spends so much time educating dog owners as part of his courses.     In the class I took,  Guy not only had students practice the basics with our canines - come, sit, stay, etc. but he was a wealth of knowledge who taught me a lot about how dogs think, behave, how to properly take care of them, etc He is a walking/talking dog whisperer.  Point in case: in the summer he talked about how to determine whether pavement is too hot for dogs to walk on, something the dogs aren't going to be able to communicate, and it's information like this I find useful.  We had a talk in class about using dog booties and  how to keep dogs cool (buy a baby pool for your backyard).  I would have never thought about this on my own.  And when my dog started digging holes in my backyard, Guy had an answer for how to fix that as well.  As a first time puppy owner, I had a lot of questions. When my dog stopped eating for a few days, I called Guy before going to the pricey vet. Guy always stayed after each class to address any individual issues an owner had, as most group dog obedience courses tend to be big.  Some say he's a big talker, which he is, but I find his information educational.  He will spend enormous amounts of time on the phone  addressing individual issues. He has gone with me to the pet store to advise me on what things to buy. He has come to my house for a private lesson,  stayed 90 minutes, but only charged me for 60. When I was injured in a car accident and could not walk nor take care of my dog, he came and picked him up and took him to his house where he not only took care of my dog,  but trained him at his home as well. Other kennels and dog-sitting companies charge a fortune for this boarding-training service and I doubt anyone is  providing door to door service, or at least they would charge extra for this. His fees were more than reasonable and he didn't charge for the pick-up/drop-off. And it's not just me. Guy treats all of his clients with the same dedication, so I'd recommend him without hesitation, whether it's for training purposes in a group setting, or with a private lesson at your home, which I found useful, because he showed me things like how to keep my dog from jumping on my bed,  something you can't learn in a class. He had all the members of my family participate in the at-home training so we all got to practice and learn.
