Robin,
Ursa has made HUGE strides since her last visit with you and Robert.
She backs off completely if I tell her "enough" and has let multiple
people touch her (against my instructions to the contrary!). Her
"place" command is so rock solid that once time I forgot that I had
placed her, went upstairs and came back down 20 minutes later to find
her still waiting for me!

Hi Robin,
I just wanted to finally check in with you regarding Molly's progress. We
just came back from our camp in Maine and Molly behaved so well. We were so
proud of her. There were even two other dogs up there this year, which she did
not know and she played with them in our yard the whole time. We didn't even
have to use the button on the collar very much. It's like a dream come true. I
just wanted to thank you for all your help with her. It sure makes a
difference. Enjoy the rest of the Summer.
Gen, Mark and Molly

We contacted Robin when it became apparent that we could not train our
Maltese mix on our own, being first time dog owners. Robin's response to
our e-mail request was prompt and she scheduled an appointment right
away. her very reasonable fee is for one hour of training, but she
always gives us more time at no charge, and we certainly appreciate that.
Robin is extremely knowledgeable and has lots of experience and
patience. her personality is very warm and kind. Robin
has trained us to train our dog and we couldn't be more pleased. Scooter
has made great progress in just a few weeks. We would highly recommend
Robin Rubin to anyone who wants to have a "mannerly mutt".

To Whom It May Concern:
When I first began discussing training options with Robin of Mannerly Mutts,
the e-collar would have been the last thing I would have decided on.
As a dog lover, I just could not get my head around the idea of using this
corrective collar in training my dog, Tyler. Since I knew Robin's
experience and love for her own dogs, I trusted her opinion and decided to go
forward with the e-collar training. I knew she would never suggest
something that would be harmful to my dog, let alone any animal.
Robin worked with Tyler on the e-collar and sure enough began to see great
results. Before the e-collar, you could tell Tyler to come, he would stop
in his tracks, look at you, and bolt the other way. It wasn't
because he didn't understand the command but that he knew there were no
repercussions for his actions. Once Tyler was trained with the
e-collar, I was able to give him a command and he would follow the command every
time. Very rarely do I find myself even having to correct Tyler with
the collar because he knows his commands and he listens now.
Since I have begun his training with Robin, Tyler is more disciplined and
well behaved. He is still the outgoing happy dog that he has always
been now he just listens to what he is told. It's a great relief to
know that you actually have control of your dog and his actions, and I owe a big
part of that to the e-collar training.
Sincerely,

"Little devil": Robin has been our pet sitter/ dog walker for
several months now. We FINALLY found her services after meeting
practically every other dog walker in our area, and working with one who
just couldn't handle Cerberus's "exuberant" German shepherd
puppy behavior. Plus, he's had the added challenge of being born with
elbow dysphasia, and needed two separate (very significant) surgeries,
which required extended confinement time during his crucial puppy
socialization years. This all has resulted in a dog who's sweet most of
the time, but has some serious aggression issues part of the time.
Robin has been extremely trustworthy and dependable, and we feel
completely at ease knowing that she's going to be checking in on our
"wild" baby. We know she can handle his energy and the
challenges he throws her way.
Recently we've consulted her for training advice regarding Cerbie's
aggressive behavior, and she has proved to be extremely caring and
patient with us. She has seen our unique predicament and has adapted
training to suit our personalities (as owners) and Cerbie's personality
(as a mostly sweet/ sometimes aggressive 1 year old shepherd.) She has
encouraged us and made us feel she really cares and is 100% there for
us- which has made us feel able to handle the challenges this dog has
brought to us. With Robin's encouragement we have found new hope for our
little devil!!

Young dog - "older parents": Thanks to Robin and her great
teaching ability, we were able to get our field spaniel, Maggie, which
we got as a rescue, trained and become "super queen" of the
house. Everyone one loves her. Robin's ability with animals and their
owners is amazing. Made a "mystery" job easy.
Couldn't recommend her more, just sad that she left central MA and is
now in Maine, but at least we can visit.

Lifesaver: Robin saved the life of my 8 year old
springer. The dog had
suddenly begun attacking her sister. Our vet told us we would have to
put her down or give away the other dog. Robin was able to train them
(and us) as well as to give us some excellent advice about geriatric
health care. We have our happy home back, now. Additionally, her
boarding is like sending them to a spa! They receive wonderful, loving
treatment and training reinforcement.
