Bobby is an excellent trainer! He was the 3rd trainer and the Only one who actually helped my dog! My dog had so many issues with fear , aggression reactivity, anxiety etc. Previous trainers told me some dogs just can’t be helped especially mine. Bobby broke the barriers ,my dog is so much happier and better . I wasn’t able to hug or brush my dog without her growling or snapping at me. She is a more confident thanks to him! I am so glad I found him on Ticktock and took my chances. Bobby helped me be a better dog owner, gave me tools to use. I also used him when I had surgery so she spent a lot of time with him. Everyone who knows my dog is so amazed in the change in her . Bobby is one of the only trainers who actually cared about my dog and didn’t feed me Bs. I’m so bummed he moved out of State because my friends wanted to send their dogs to him! I tell everyone about him and wouldn’t hesitate he is the best . Bobby knows dogs ,he has a connection with them and loves what he does!

Been doing virtuals with Bobby for a while now. Def knows his stuff, and will help if you are willing to put in the work. One of the bluntest, no “frills” or coddling trainers out there, and it works!

Bobby is a remarkable trainer. He was with my dog since he was a puppy. His leadership and skill continue to be a mainstay in my house and my relationship with my Rottweiler Brandt is what any dog owner would dream of. The skills my dog has makes him an absolute joy to be around and continues to impress everyone that meets him. My dog and I would not be as close as we were without Bobby. Can not recommend him enough!

Always very knowledgeable. No frills. If you're looking for someone to sugarcoat it, hes not your guy. But if you want your dog trained and real tangible and usable results, go to him. I reccomend him to everyone that needs a trainer.

Best dog trainer ever!!! We had a very intense case with our pitbull and no trainers would wanted to help us, luckily we were able to work with Bobby at Ruff & Rowdy he helped build our relationship with our dog. It has been a game changer and we have seen our dog have more confidence and issues have drastically improved! We are so happy with the training we received and would highly recommend Ruff & Rowdy for you and your pup!

Bobby is absolutely spectacular! While, I've been training dogs for almost 15 years, while dog trainers never stop learning it definitely starts to slow down on what you learn from others. That being said in the past couple yrs that I have known him I dare say I have learned more from him than any other trainer. If you are looking for someone that is highly intelligent(not just when it comes to dogs), is going to care for your dog as if they where his own all while using a no nonsense attitude but lots of love and empathy, getting rock solid results all while your pup falls in love with training, this is your guy!
