My review is not based on actual training but the process in trying to get ahold of anyone. I've tried multiple times to reach out to this business for dog training services, but unfortunately, they don't seem interested in getting back to potential clients. I left a voicemail and placed a few calls over the course of a couple weeks, and not a single one was returned. If this is how they handle inquiries, I can only imagine how unreliable they might be when it comes to actual training sessions. I would strongly urge the owner to not market your services on Yelp if you don't have a good intake process for handling inbound calls for potential clients to eliminate bad reviews on the poor communication and lack of professionalism in getting back to someone! read more

Tried this obedience school after talking to people that had both positive and negative experiences. I must say, although the trainer is knowledgeable, this was overall a negative experience. We brought our six month old golden retriever puppy, and were very clear with communicating to their team ahead of time It is is his first time with any kind of formal training. The main trainer, no names mentioned, was very rude, and made my wife feel uncomfortable. I'm not going to list them here, but there were several put downs that were sent our way, as if we were "bad" dog owners. Unless you have extremely thick skin, and are able to deal with a very brash and rude person, I would seek for other obedience schools in the area. Now that I read the reviews more in depth, our experience is not unique. read more

We have been training with Robert for the past 6 weeks and I could only say positive things about his training methods. My dog is very reactive and had poor leash manners. We wanted her to train around other dogs to work on acting acceptable in a public setting. After 6 weeks in basic obedience with Robert, my girl has made so much progress on her walking and behavior around other dogs. I can see how some people get offended when they feel that Robert is calling them out or criticizing the way that they are training but honestly he is here to teach you how to train your dog, not sugar coat it so you can continue to do what you want and not help your dog progress. If you are doing something wrong he will correct you to help you correct your dog because you have to be trained first then your dog will get trained. Look at how well trained Roberts dogs are and think if you can get your dogs to that kind of obedience. We are so impressed with the progress that we will continue to go to their group classes and hopefully see more great progress in our dog. read more

Robert is awesome with both owners and dogs. He is patient and gives goals for you fur baby to reach. He holds great classes and both Maggie Mae and I really enjoy the training atmosphere. Would highly recommend to anyone who wants basic obedience or for show. He will guide you to whatevee you choose. read more

Robert and Karen are such amazing people!!! I took my Catahoula puppy to the beginning and intermediate group classes and my dog learned so much! We went back to got our CGC and Trick titles. They are super educated and very honest. I totally recommend Robert and Karen! read more

I went to unlimited obedience to get some beginning agility training for my dog. He is a well behaved dog that has a tendency to get excited and bark at other dogs. I had talked to Robert before the class and he said he could work with that. When I showed up for our first beginning agility class, he told me that all of the other dogs in the class had been doing agility for a while and that my dog was behind. Which confused me since it was the first class of a beginning agility class. This was my dog's first journey into Roberts area and first time seeing these other dogs and he was a little excited. He loves other dogs and would bark at them when on leash because he wants to play. Robert told me that my dog couldn't do that and that if my dog got into his dog Joker's face he would not be responsible for what happens. Which made me extremely nervous. Every time I tried to work with my dog he would yell at me for doing something wrong and ask me how is that working for me. Then after yelling he would say it was nothing personal and that this was the way he trained. It was not what I was looking for so we did not continue on with the class. After I left the class I was really disappointed in myself and upset at my dog which after thinking about I shouldn't have been and I didn't want to continue on in an environment where my dog and I both didn't learn and have fun. After all, that is what agility is supposed to be about..right? read more

If you have a dog, and you want it trained this is where you go. I was at the same class as the other "Heather" and I never heard Robert cuss or treat anyone disrespectfully. This is our 2nd time through his class with 1 repeat dog and 1 new student. Robert is AMAZING!! The dog's and owner's safety comes first-something he repeats to us always, as others are not aware that some dogs aren't dog friendly...like ours...He takes on dogs and owners I think are hopelessly lost and by the end they are obeying their owners and doing as commanded. It is amazing!! I have referred at least 12 of my friends to Unlimited Obedience with amazing results. And the cost is DIRT CHEAP! Seriously, how can you own a dog and not be able to spend the little amount of money on it. If you have a dog and want it trained - please go to Unlimited Obedience! You won't be disappointed!! The other "Heather" stated my review was not factual but due to me being a friend of the trainer. That is not true. I am a repeat customer and will continue to be so as long as I am a dog owner. I was there that night that the other Heather was there. She was unwilling to listen and unwilling to learn, we were all better off by her leaving. Our class continued and I have 2 well trained dogs. read more

If you are considering taking one of Roberts classes please know he only wants you and your dog to be safe and learn. Be honest with him about your dogs behavior and problems. LISTEN to what he has to say and know everything he says and does is what he feels is in the best interest for you and your dog! Give him the chance to help you and show you how to best handle your dog. If you do, I promise you will get the results you want. read more

So the time that I brought my dog here was about three years ago, however as I drove past it today i felt compelled to leave a review and perhaps save someone from wasting their time and money here. I have the world's happiest dog and this guy had us both leaving with our tails between our legs. for starters, the presence of his own dog left me very uncomfortable. The dog looked nervous, on edge, and was definitely not enjoying herself. However, I pressed on. I knew I wouldn't be coming back when he HIT MY DOG. Without even asking me for my permission, he smacked my dog on the nose. I may not be the "professional" but after I left and never came back, I was able to train my dog how to sit without smacking him on the face. If you want your dog to be terrified of you, this is the place to take your dog. Otherwise, look elsewhere. read more

We just finished beginner classes with my 6 month old husky pup. I have brought both of my adopted huskies to Unlimited Obedience, and I could not be happier with the results. Robert is so knowledgeable and is able to teach you so much in such a short period of time. The only reasons someone would complain about him or the class is if you cant take a little constructive criticism, or you don't implement what you are being taught. This is the best training you can receive for your money. Since we can't attend Tuesday night intermediate classes, we will be scheduling a couple of private classes instead. read more

We have been training with Unlimited Obedience for over 5 months now! My expectations have truly been exceeded! We looked and researched many different training options for our dogs! We more than happy with the results we are seeing! We can't wait to see what the future holds for our dogs! Unlimited Obedience offers such a fun, interactive and family environment! I highly recommend Unlimited Obedience! read more

Unlimited Obedience - Our lab practicing her sit stays! We are very happy with the level she is currently at! - Pet Training Near Me - Norco, California

We took our Akita (a.k.a. very stubborn breed) puppy Sampson to Robert years ago, and I can't tell you how much we learned from Robert and Joker (his personal dog)! He is very knowledgeable and extremely experienced. Since Sampson completed the class, we have recommended probably 20+ people to him, all have given us positive feedback. My husband keeps his business cards in his wallet, as so many people are impressed seeing how well behaved our 135 lb. dog is, and we get asked out his training ALL THE TIME. Our only regret is that we were unable to enroll Sampson in the intermediate class, since it conflicted with our schedule. read more

One star is being nice! One of the owners Robert is the most in-compassionate, impatient people I've ever met! First of all when someone shows up for dog training, telling them their bad owners because their dog doesn't sit or barks at people, within 2 minutes of being there, is disgusting. I heard him tell numerous people they did things wrong and make their dog sit. Did he forget this is intro dog training? What does he think we're here to learn? I also heard him use the word shit. He's very aggressive, and made my dogs very uncomfortable. I left within 5 minutes. I highly discourage people from wasting their time with these awful people! Update: it's funny because Robert is one of The other "Heather" friend! I'm pretty certain that review is bogus. Just as Mark said the exact same thing I did, Robert is very condescending and will tell you everything you're doing wrong. He got in my fear aggressive dog's face and made her very mad. Come to find out from a trainer who knows the psychology of dogs, that's the worst thing you can do, and she would have never trusted him. I'd only go to Robert if your dog is already trained. read more

I've been training at Unlimited Obedience for 4 years now with two of my dogs. We have trained in all of the classes offered: Beginner, Intermediate, Open, Rally and Agility. Without the help, support and guidance from Robert I would not have been able to compete at the National level with my Border Collie. The training we received at Unlimited Obedience has not only helped us with competing, but also with training a dog that we can live with and take out in public. read more

We took our Bouvier, Sherman, to UO several years ago as an 18-month-old. A wonderful in-house, family dog but he was out of control on walks, dog and stranger aggressive, and too big and powerful for me to handle. By the end of the 6-weeks, I had a dog that was obedient, sit, stay, heel, and come. Robert encouraged us to practice every day with Sherman and repeat steps when he disobeyed. Sherman is now 7-years-old, goofy, fun, family dog that my 4-year-old granddaughter can easily help walk and give commands to. I highly recommend UO for basic dog training and agility classes.

It's only 4 stars at this point because I've only had one lesson, but let me start out by saying that one lesson has made a huge difference already. Not just for my dog, but for myself. Yes, Robert is a no nonsense guy. Yes, he did point out to me the things we did wrong upon showing up. However, I didn't even realize they were happening or that they were wrong. I came to learn. He is there to teach. I have a 5 year old Husky and it was not easy for me to know that all of my efforts have been simple reinforcing bad habits. Robert taught me some very good basics and now that I know what to do, my stubborn dog is willing to do it. I am beyond happy and excited that I will be able to really enjoy my dog, instead of our time together leaving me out of patience. Our practice session this morning was great and I know they will keep getting better. Robert was very supportive, but he didn't coddle me OR my dog. I am adult enough to admit that I was doing it wrong. If you can't handle that, then maybe he's not the right trainer for you. If you can listen and learn, then he is your guy!!!! read more

I am bringing my 8 month Mastiff here and LOVE Robert. He is a no fuss, no muss guy. Pet training is really people training. Owners need to be consistent and firm with their animal to get results. The low reviews here are false in my opinion. Robert knows what he is doing and how to get results. He is very approachable and provides clear instruction/constructive criticism. I think those that aren't used to that would have a hard time. Our dog is progressing great. The kids also come so they can see how they need to behave with the dog. I highly recommend him but if you aren't going to work with your dog and be the leader for your pet, don't go. read more

You want your dog trained then come here. Brought my 1 1/2 year old pit bull here for obedience training and Robert does a great job.

Wow. This place is hard core in a good way. They ask a lot of the dogs and the dogs respond, at least most of the time. One suggestion, start here from the beginning of your training or you'll have a couple things to unlearn and relearn. read more

Unlimited Obedience has the greatest trainer. They care about the progress of not only your dog, but how you the owner handles your most prized possession. This training is better than any other possible option on the market. The price is unbeatable, and the acclimation to other dogs truly helps you and your dog get comfortable with distractions. read more

We took our dog in for a private lesson, and Robert was rude the entire hour. Both our newly adopted young pup and us were beginners, and Robert's teaching strategy was to yell at me whenever I did anything wrong. I left there feeling horrible, and my dog was very anxious. He said he "didn't sugar coat" but he was just downright abrasive and rude. Plus Robert's dog that he used as an example was shaking he was so anxious waiting for Robert's command, and seemed almost robotic. We wanted our dog to be obedient but not to change who he is. We ended up taking our dog somewhere else for obedience training and he has done so well, and is still his same happy self! read more

Just finished a 6 week class and all I can say is WOW. I listened to what Robert said and worked on the homework and my dog is fun to have around. He is walking on leash and not dragging me down the street anymore. Really worth the time. read more
