Working with Robert of Dogboy has been an excellent experience from the start. He listened to our concerns over the phone re: our one year old golden retriever and recommended we do a few behavioral training sessions. In only a few sessions we feel our puppy has made significant progress - she is much calmer and more independent, no longer uses us as chew toys and has stopped many of the behaviors we had hoped we could correct. Further, Robert gives us several tactics for working through each behavior, demonstrates and teaches us how to perform them, and often provides additional resources for us to read and utilize in between sessions. Perhaps most importantly, Rob has been extremely mindful of the fact that we have a baby on the way and truly seems to care that our dog is well-trained in regards to infant/toddler safety for the years to come. We are SO grateful for his knowledge and efforts, for squeezing us in when he has had last minute openings, and for fielding a frantic call from us during the holiday week when we had a new serious behavioral issue to address. We have recommended him to several friends and would absolutely recommend him to anyone in the area in need of dog training! He is personable, knowledgeable, professional, always on time and seems to genuinely care about our dog’s behavior.

We had a wonderful experience with Dogboy NYC! My dog Rupert came away with many new skills. The classes were broken out well and felt like just enough to take-in and practice at home each week. My puppy completed the classes while he was 7-8 months, which seemed to be just the right age for him. Everyone at Wag Club where the classes took place were also very friendly. Definitely worth the experience and many positive takeaways.

Business Response:

Thanks for the awesome review, Larisa! We had such a great time having you and Rupert in class, keep up the good work!

We've really enjoyed working with Robert to train Luna, our five year-old rescue. When we first brought her home, Luna was scared of everything and lacked trust and confidence. Through training with Robert, we've learned how to better communicate with Luna and build her confidence. After a few months, she's learned basic obedience and is a happy-go-lucky dog, strutting through the city with her tail wagging! We really appreciate that Robert assesses Luna's behavior and progress each step of the way, and provides appropriate guidance and training strategies for her and us. We have found his systematic approach to teaching commands and skills very helpful and easy to follow, even through virtual Zoom sessions. We highly recommend Robert and Dogboy NYC for any dog parent looking for training or behavior modification services! The team is easy to work with, professional, and communicates well.

Business Response:

Thanks for the lovely review, Ellen! It has been a joy working together and seeing Luna transition into a confident NYC dog. Your dedication and hard work is inspiring!

Robert was great, super patient and helped us address issues such as leash pulling and lunging at people - made all the difference! Would definitely recommend.

From the very start, it's been an amazing experience. Robert and his team are helpful and kind, patient and generous with their time. I recently rescued a dog and was a little unfamiliar with what to know and how to approach training this adorable new family member. Robert came to my home, met me in the park and answered all my (sometimes) frantic questions with a smile and a wonderful sense of humor.

Business Response:

Thanks for the kind review Sarah! It has been an equally lovely experience working with you and your family! Obi is one lucky dog!

We just finished a video training session with Robert and it was fantastic! Robert had helped us train our cavalier king charles spaniel (in person) 11 years ago, and when we got a new puppy, we reached out again. I wasn't sure how it would work over Zoom but it was great. My daughters and I had a lot of questions about how to deal with some annoying behaviors, and Robert had simple solutions for each of them. And he was able to demonstrate how to teach commands with his own dog on camera, which was really helpful to see. We took a lot of notes and will hopefully be showing off how much our puppy has learned in our session next week! I couldn’t recommend Robert more highly — so knowledgeable and really a pleasure to work with.

Business Response:

Thanks Susan! So happy you have enjoyed our online sessions as much as we have! It has been great to stay connected with our clients virtually. With dedicated humans like you, Ziggy is sure to thrive!

I am the adoption director of The Sato Project and we highly recommend Robert at Dogboy. He adopted one of our dogs and has worked with countless others. He is well equipped to handle dogs with issues. And he is always available to help consult on difficult cases. He also volunteered with us in Puerto Rico helping to spay/neuter/vaccinate thousands of animals from low-income communities after Hurricane Maria. Your pup is in great hands!

Business Response:

We love The Sato Project and especially our own Sato, "Josie". Thank you for the lovely review and all the good work you do!
