My dog would jump at the glass door when she wanted in. After participating in the door manners exercise, the behavior ended. Interesting & useful real life examples. Alex D., --Indianapolis, IN
As long as you 'think like a dog,' this is very common sense. An easy, natural way to train your dog. --Nichole T.,Indianapolis, IN
Deb was very easy to understand. Toby seems more calm. Very good program. --Nancy C., Fishers, IN
I like the "no violence" correction. Our dog -- or any dog -- will respond better, and I think it teaches him not to nip, because we don’t. I love the lifetime of the dog guarantee. I feel better knowing I can call to keep us and the dog in the best training environment. --Stacy B., Indianapolis, IN
Deb does a great job! --Jason P., Carmel, IN
Easy & fun. --Bonnie S., Fortville, IN
I did not want to use force or prong collar, and I was glad to see results with such a simple technique. --Sharon S., Carmel, IN

Deborah was very knowledgeable and patient. Our dogs showed amazing improvement by the end of the training. We still have much more training to do but the techniques really work. --Bobbi E., Indianapolis, IN

Very understandable and helpful. Easiest system we have seen. --Steve S., Pendleton, IN
Deb was very patient with me and three dogs. Thanks, Deborah! It was incredible to see the change was instant. All 3 responded to the training w/o being physical with them. Easy to follow and the dogs seemed to enjoy it too. They [friends] have commented what a change the training has made. I definitely made the right choice. The change has decreased the stress in the house and my 2 females haven’t fought in 4 weeks—amazing change. Happy dogs=Happy families—this is so true! --Deb B., Fishers, IN

Our friends know firsthand how crazy our dogs are, so I’m fairly certain the quality of training will speak for itself the next time they see the dogs! --Molly W., Noblesville, IN
If I can get it, anyone can. We laughed a lot -- especially when the trainer played the dog. Easy directions -- no treats used! Puts the responsibility for success on the owner -- emphasis on leadership by owner-necessary for safety. --Sue Ann K., Indianapolis, IN
Because it is effective and easy. --Rebekah F., Indianapolis, IN
Because I noticed results the first day. This is a very unique system that shows improvement in two hours. --Jessica R., Indianapolis, IN

So far, I have noticed a significant improvement in my dog’s demeanor. With continued training I am sure she will have continued improvement. --Rebecca O.-Indianapolis, IN
I saw an immediate improvement in dominance issues had between my dogs. I was very pleased, having terriers can sometimes be very challenging, this was a much easier method for them. I think it is very user friendly. I think anyone can use this system with their dogs. I work in a vet clinic, I would certainly recommend for behavior problems. --Elizabeth W., Indianapolis, IN
I believe it is an excellent system that is extremely effective. It was unbelievable how effective the training was for our dog. Deb, our trainer, was very knowledgeable and patient. --Kellie K., Carmel
In just two days I have noticed a dramatic improvement in my dogs behavior, especially with barking! Thanks so much for all of your help. --Leanne F., Indianapolis, IN
Amazing difference from start to finish. We have struggled with behavior issues for a very long time and this has been very informative. In home training is the way to go! I wish I would have heard about this sooner. --Molly D.,Noblesville, IN
Does seem to respond well and almost immediately. --Jennifer L., Oaklandon, IN
Good methods-not mean to the dog. We were very pleased with all of Deb’s help. --Tricia C., Fishers, IN
I have recommended Bark Busters to four clients who have gone through the training. They are amazed at the results. --Leon Freeland DVM, Carmel, IN
All the training tips & techniques made a lot of sense to us. I think you traded in our dog for a new one. It’s teaching us to be patient. Our dog is learning faster than we are! We had fun & it wore our dog out! Great for anyone who needs help w/ a 'bad' dog! Bark Busters taught me that my dog really is a great dog, but I was the one who needed training. --Louise P., Carmel, IN
She was very good to go over things again when we had questions or were unsure. Like the positive reinforcement given to the dogs. We have seen improvement w/our dogs. Deborah has called to check in & has come to the house an additional time. --Lisa C., Indianapolis, IN
Very patient! Very beneficial-the dogs had a remarkable response-amazing they listen. Easy to follow-simple directions. --Rebecca P., Walpole-McCordsville, IN
She was very good and thorough, constructive with her criticism. It is a helpful way to learn to have your dogs obey you and have the quiet home you want. The tips were very helpful and made us feel more in control. --Rachelle G., Noblesville, IN
I was not able to accomplish by myself. I felt very comfortable with the instructor. --Sandy S., Fishers, IN
Natural training techniques not related to food or physical means. --Kira V., Noblesville, IN
Max was doing great! Great way to teach a dog without having to leave home. I believe that our dogs will show so much improvement with this training-they already have in 1 day! --Allison J., Westfield, IN
’cause I saw it work with my own dog. In just 2 hours he was already acting like a new dog. --Amanda H., Noblesville, IN
Door control-sit/stay was immediate result. Results-it works. --Robert L., Noblesville, IN
She was definitely responding to the bah. It makes me feel like a better 'mom' now that I don’t have to raise my voice to my dog to get her to listen. It makes things much calmer. I think it’s very helpful to have that extra 'push' and support of a trainer. --Kristen A., Noblesville, IN
Deborah Harlen was very patient with us and consistently ‘trained’ us to train our dogs. Thanks! My extremely dominant female dog was in complete submission at the end of the training. I could not believe it!! Though it has taken serious commitment, the complete change in the dogs’ behavior has taken away so much of the stress & anxiety I used to have! --Michelle G., Indianapolis, IN
Deb took her time w/us and was very patient. Also because I can call her anytime w/questions. It has been only 4 days since she came and she is coming back to help me and I didn’t even ask her. I have never owned a dog, so I have lots of questions. I am thrilled with the natural method that Bark Busters uses. The previous owner of Gracie used a shock collar-yuck! The Bark Busters training is worth every penny! I know that we will have a well trained dog and a happy family. --Erin K. M., Pendleton, IN
