Many of my clients have come to refer to me Uncle Bob as I have built close working relationships with them and their dog(s).&nbsp; I have over 25 years of dog training experience.&nbsp; I have earned multiple certifications in dog training (Animal Behavior College, No Limitations School of Remote Collar Training) and attend ongoing training seminars.&nbsp;

While I believe that the dog teaches me how to recognize and address their individual needs, it is important for you to understand my basic foundation of training.&nbsp; With this is mind, I have listed below some of the various blog posts that I have created over the years.&nbsp; In this way, you can get a sense of what I do and why.&nbsp; I believe that you will see that I am a genuine person who cares deeply for providing the best training for you and your dog.<\/p>\n<h3>Core Fundamentals<\/h3>\n<h4>Why should I hire you?- methods that I use<\/h4>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/sitmeanssit.com\/dog-training-mu\/palm-beach-dog-training\/hiring-a-dog-trainer\/\">https:\/\/sitmeanssit.com\/dog-training-mu\/palm-beach-dog-training\/so-why-should-i-hire-you\/<\/a><\/p>\n<h4>Breaking down issues so to train the dog better<\/h4>\n<p><span id=\"sample-permalink\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sitmeanssit.com\/dog-training-mu\/palm-beach-dog-training\/breaking-down-the-problem\/\">https:\/\/sitmeanssit.com\/dog-training-mu\/palm-beach-dog-training\/<span id=\"editable-post-name\">how-do-i-get-my-\u2026down-the-problem<\/span>\/<\/a><\/span> \u200e<span id=\"edit-slug-buttons\"><\/span><\/p>\n<h4>When using tools, how do i utilize the remote training collar?<\/h4>\n<p>&nbsp;<span id=\"sample-permalink\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sitmeanssit.com\/dog-training-mu\/palm-beach-dog-training\/is-the-remote-collar-for-me-a-matter-of-perspective-and-understanding\/\">https:\/\/sitmeanssit.com\/dog-training-mu\/palm-beach-dog-training\/<span id=\"editable-post-name\">is-the-remote-co\u2026nd-understanding<\/span>\/<\/a><\/span> \u200e<span id=\"edit-slug-buttons\"><\/span><\/p>\n<h4>Who is to blame when my dog does not behave or listen?<\/h4>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/sitmeanssit.com\/dog-training-mu\/palm-beach-dog-training\/who-is-to-blame\/\">https:\/\/sitmeanssit.com\/dog-training-mu\/palm-beach-dog-training\/who-is-to-blame\/<\/a><\/p>\n<h4>The importance of patience and consistency in training<\/h4>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/sitmeanssit.com\/dog-training-mu\/palm-beach-dog-training\/be-consistent-in-your-training\/\">https:\/\/sitmeanssit.com\/dog-training-mu\/palm-beach-dog-training\/be-consistent-in-your-training\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>While these are not all of my training blogs, they are some of my favorite ones that do showcase certain attitudes and beliefs that I have.&nbsp;
