We are so proud of our superstar grad Kahlua! Thanks Heather!
Stephanie C.

We did 8 weeks with Heather and boy was it worth it, we not only have a newly obedient pup but we (hubby and I) are more in sync with our knowledge and commands so it's less confusing for everyone involved and Kahlua is much better off for it. Heather is such a cool trainer, super responsive via text in between our sessions, made everything palatable and effective, and just really knows her stuff here. 10/10 love you Heather !!

Buddy is excited to learn & meet new friends at Rob's.

Buddy will be in great hands. I'm pleased with the informed professionalism of the staff. Ian (a great listener) took time to get to know Buddy & offer recommendations based on his needs. Watching the staff work w/the pups was impressive. We are delighted to begin!

I sent my dog for a week of board and train. He is 8 and still have some behavior issues that needed professional help. After picking him back up, and completing a lesson of my own, I can't believe the improvement!!! My boy is focused and calm on a leash. And, for the very first time, we have voice recall. I received regular updates of photos and videos. What a great experience for both of us! Shayla and Michael were awesome

Was so impressed with the training by Rob's Dogs! Our Boarder Collie is a great dog, but just a few problems we had with her and I needed help. Erin and Gabrielle were the trainers for our "Zipper", and all I can say is, this is a great way to train your dog. I took her out today for our first walk since arriving home, and she did everything that has been shown in the videos and more! Thank you Erin & Gabrielle and Rob's Dogs LLC

Brought my 2 year old reactive German shepherd here for a week of board and train. At time of pick up I received my boy in a whole new form. He has had so many successes since attending this training center as well! He's a slick boy these days. I bring him places with me much more often with much more confidence. His trainer Andrea was so knowledgeable and helpful when we picked him up. She provided follow up as well to make sure Theo was thriving out of the training center as well. I'm insanely happy with the results we got from Andrea and the team at Rob's Dogs. It changed our lives completely and for the better!

I cannot say enough amazing things about Rob's Dogs and our experience with our trainer, Victoria! Before Rob's Dogs, Georgia was unable to go out in public due to reactivity and extreme pulling! After private lessons with Victoria, Georgia went to her first farmers market and did AMAZING! At restaurants and stores, she now gets compliments. She is able to meet everyone better now. Her reactivity is so much better since she is able to focus and we can communicate with her now through the tools given to us. Plus, we no longer get pulled everywhere! From the first lesson, we noticed an enormous change. Victoria changed Georgia for the better and we cannot thank her enough for all her guidance getting us to where Georgia is now. We are so so happy we chose Rob's Dogs!

I was very excited to get my new rescue puppy last month and quickly realized that we needed a little more help getting her adjusted. I had seen several ads for Rob's Dogs and figured I would reach out to gather more information about the process, what would be a good fit for us, price, etc. So I used my break to fill out the online information questionnaire since I knew I was limited on time and shared that email is my preferred method of communication but still gave my phone number as I figured it would be needed eventually. I made sure to state that if they could email me with several options to schedule a time I would then call them with one that worked. I pretty quickly get a call which I had forwarded to voicemail since I was back at work. I realize it's from Rob's Dogs and found a second to call back to reiterate that email was a lot easier for me to schedule times if she could do that. Literally first words out of my mouth was "you just called but I'm at work and will be until after 10p and email is a lot easier for me to communicate to schedule". My goodness you would have thought I was asking her to build a computer from scratch from playdoh, and the attitude that she had with it. I was informed very rudely that they aren't doing evaluations anymore, but also was told "after you schedule your training the evaluation will happen before the first session. But I can schedule for a time for me to call you back when you have more time". So not only am I confused by this statement about the evaluation because it wasn't making since, but also am I am trying to get her to email me the the information so that I can call them back when I am not at work. With her just repeating that they don't do evaluations anymore and I needed to schedule I realize this wasn't a place I felt comfortable to have them train my pup, since communication clearly isn't a strong suit. So I simply said never mind I will get her trained myself with another company. I eventually had to hang up as I was getting frustrated and needed to get back to work. 10 minutes later I got a text basically upset at me for trying to get the information about how things work and why would want an evaluation if I didn't want any dog training? To say I feel attacked is an understatement. Her level of unprofessionalism is unmatched by feeling it was okay or appropriate to text me after our last interaction. She not only chose to ignored my request for email communication, called and left a message (which was not an issue to be clear) but then was rude to me over the phone when I ask for email correspondence with the information needed, then had the audacity to then text me with your rude attitude after I said I would find another company to help me. I don't know if it's just her and she needs some restraining herself or if the whole company is like this but I'm not one to risk it to hope I'm wrong. I would not recommend this company as there isn't even a way to make an appointment for information to learn more that what's on the website if you're having dealing with Julianna unless you enjoy being disrespected and attacked. But who knows these days companies hire and keep like minded individuals. Just my experience please make your own decision for yourself and your preferences.

Before I discovered all American K-9 I was 100% disappointed and discouraged with all of the…read moreprevious training and gadgets that I had tried. I could not figure out why nothing was working. A colleagusuggested that I try a dog trainer named Bob Solomini that he had used in the past. His passion and confidence in Bob convinced me and even though I was very skeptical and worn out I decided to give it one last try. I am excited to tell you about my invaluable experience and what I learned from it: -my dog was only a small part of the problem, but the majority of the behavioral problems stemmed from me. Dogs aren't born knowing how to behave the way humans would like them to, so we as responsible dog owners need to teach them. -we don't automatically realize what we are doing wrong and unless a true professional who really cares can teach us the correct way we can't be sure that we will ultimately have a happy relationship with our pet. -after four years of pulling my hair out and stressful walks with my dog I wound up moving to a new neighborhood, and my dog was totally out of control when I walked him. When he saw people with dogs, he went crazy and I could not stop him from barking and pulling. In fact, he pulled me down a couple of times where I sprained my ankle and another time where I hurt my knee. In fact, most of my neighbors walked the other way when they saw us and complained about my dog's bad behavior. After the first lesson, I immediately knew that I had found something different. Humane, focused,, professional, and results driven. I am so lucky that I found all American K-9 and especially Bob Solomini. I love walking my dog now, and all of my neighbors have praised the incredible transformation that they see. This was literally a life-changing experience for my dog and for me. I am so thankful that I found somebody that really knows what they're doing and really cares -not only is Bob a great person, but also the Best dog trainer that I have ever met. I highly recommend this trainer and business to anyone who is serious about having a great dog!

Don't get it twisted - it is just as much work and training for the owner as it is for the pup!

Thank you Bob for giving me and my sweet boy the gifts of safely going on walks and enjoying parks!!!

I tried a different training program shortly after I rescued her which made her reactivity worse. I knew I had to find someone who could provide the type of training my dog would respond to. Brenda did a consultation with us and she really listened to what the concerns and goals were, and came up with a personalized plan for us. My frenchie is a different dog now in the best way possible as a result of Brenda's training methods. We had four sessions, and my frenchie can see another dog on our walks and not lunge or jump at them. It's brought a new form of connection for her and I as well because we can enjoy our time outside of our home together!

He was 3 years old and completely untrained when we adopted him. We got the basics done through PetCo but we still had some troublesome behaviors we were having trouble addressing. We did 4 sessions with Brenda and the change has been remarkable. She came to our house, which helps train him in a comfortable environment and she adapts her training to the dog. A big part of training is also for us to learn how best to reinforce the commands; Brenda left us with homework for the week to practice. Woody still has some stuff to learn but we have a strong foundation to continue his training journey and a lot more tools in our toolbox. Highly recommend Brenda!

Zoom Room Dog Training

Unfortunately I trusted the Zoom Room website that their trainers would ensure a safe environment…read more My 11.4 pound puppy attended a puppy playgroup and less than 10 minutes into the session was stepped on by a very large Great Dane puppy. My puppy screamed in pain and the "trainer" started yelling at me to "get out!" and as I carried my screaming puppy out he mockingly shouted to all the other owners "She's just a drama queen!" My puppy would not bear weight on the injured foot. X-rays showed there were no broken bones, so the veterinarian bandaged her leg and we waited a week until the bandage was removed to find out if she needed an MRI to assess ligament injury. Fortunately when her bandage was removed she was no longer lame so no ligament injury. We had an almost $500 veterinary bill from her injury at the Zoom Room and the owner/manager never contacted us. The "trainer" said he would refund our $25 puppy play group fee and did not.

We were impressed with how clean the place smelled. Most places involving dogs, there is always a faint or not-so-faint smell of dog, but with zoom room, you never could tell dogs were in there when it came to smell. Also a bonus is their amazing selection of dog treats and toys! The staff is very friendly and helpful. We met Colin, the owner and trainer, for orientation and he was awesome at explaining everything from training to their philosophy to what is expected of dog owners and what we need to do to see results with our puppy. With our schedule, we have been mostly in training classes with Ray (sorry, if I misspelled that!) and she is amazing! Gatsby loves her and so do we! We and Gatsby are always learning something new with each class that we never would've picked up from online or trying to train by ourselves. The trainers are very passionate about dog training and it definitely shows in classes. The best and most important part about Zoom Room, that we love the most, is their philosophy on only using positive training techniques and avoiding negative ones at all cost. We highly recommend this place if you're looking for a clean, safe facility with friendly and kind staff, and passionate trainers for your pup!

Regardless of his illness, Michelle sends many pictures and text updates on how things are going with all the dogs. As a very protective momma, I trust Michelle completely with my furbabies and home. We love having Michelle take care of our babies... so much so that when we were planning the August trip we just completed, she wasn't available on our original dates, so we moved our trip to make sure she was available.

They are a wealth of knowledge and I successfully implemented many of their suggestions. For example, a "softer" approach to the prong collar I was using, and better timing with the remote collar. I now realize I talk too much to my dog and should use more indirect, non-verbal "pressure" to communicate commands to my dog. Jose and Monique of JD Powerhouse offer a 6-week DIY Saturday afternoon basic obedience class. I enrolled to "refresh" my ability to "communicate with" or effectively handle my dog. I have participated in various obedience classes with my dog over the years, so my dog was somewhat trained. She's a 4-year-old, American Pit Bull Terrier, with no major behavior issues. Although, she did not like when other dogs barked at her (or me) and would react for short bursts until they passed us on our daily walks. Since my dog is a 70-pound, square-headed, somewhat muscular dog, she appeared the aggressor. Jose and Monique increased my confidence and ability to maintain quiet control of my dog during our neighborhood walks. As always, I needed the training, not my dog

What I really appreciate in addition to their expertise, clear direction and upfront approach is that they didn't sell me on what I didn't need. José made it clear very quickly that it would not be the best use of money to board and train my dog, Piper. Instead, he offered me a customized package that would maximize the training and my money. That's badass. I have gone to other evaluations where trainers were trying to scare me into pick the most expensive package by over inflating the concerns I had. I left those feeling overwhelmed both by the price and by the evaluation itself. That is NOT the experience I had with José and Monique and it made the decision to choose them so easy. I highly recommend JD's Powerhouse K9 Bootcamp because you can trust that José and Monique truly care about helping you to be the best owner you can so your dog can trust you and be their best. I am quickly gaining confidence and I can see Piper is too. Also, as a side note, they are amazing humans. They do great work work shelter dogs and I know I've found my training home. Thank you so much to José, Monique and the rest of JD's Powerhouse K9 Bootcamp. You are the BEST!!!
