Very simple to understand. John was very clear and answered all my questions. I saw a lot of progress just in one session. I really like that there is no shock collar or any punishment to the dogs, all dog communication. Permalink

Our trainers (Diane and John) were amazing and so understanding with both of our dogs and with us as well! They took the time to explain every bit of the reason behind the training techniques and the behaviors of dogs in general to help us understand how to communicate with our dogs. One of the dogs was very timid during the first meeting and they took things slower with her and never tried to push her too far. Every session was tailored to address the specific issues we cited in our initial call to Bark Busters and every technique they taught us started showing noticeable changes sometimes as quickly as one day after practicing it with the dogs. None of the training involved anything pain or treat related (no shock collar, treat training, etc) which we appreciated too! They just teach you how to communicate with your dog so that they understand what you want from them. Diane and John are absolutely amazing and thoughtful individuals and I would recommend them and Bark Busters to anyone! Permalink

Josh was so helpful with his guidance on the new training. He made sure I was able to practice with his tips while he was here which was beyond helpful. Couldn't be more pleased with the training session. Permalink

Trainer note from Joshua : Riley has been aggressive with Carly's roommate recently and also been hihgly reactive to sounds and noises. Today we addressed his aggression and barking, he responded very well today, and Carly was very pleased.

Reaching out to Bark Busters and Justin has been a great decision and I would 100% recommend it to anyone looking to improve they’re relationship with their dog. We reached out for help with our 4 month old german shepherd's pup a couple months ago. We were constantly being bit at home and dealing with leash reactivity towards other dogs outside. This created a lot of stress and frustration for us. We didn’t want these things to get any worse so we had to take action. Justin has been so understanding since the first encounter and was very honest with us. An advanced dog requires advanced leadership skills and we needed to build those. He gives us homework and exercises to do at home and constantly checks in with us. We have a very sensitive pup, but he is also very stubborn which can sometimes serve as a barrier to progress. Justin has been super understanding and humble enough to try different things. His focus is on finding techniques that will help our dog and not forcing a technique to work. I’m most grateful for his eagerness to help and having constant open communication with honest feedback. We don’t need someone to sugar coat everything for us, we need someone to be assertive and tell us what it is we need to fix. Our boy is a work in progress but we cannot be happier. He walks so much better, reacts significantly less to other dogs, and most importantly has a new found respect for us as leaders. Permalink

Our training session today was great! Nola and ourselves learned multiple ways in which our behaviors can be balanced and leadership understood. We practiced how to walk properly on the leash as well as be non-protective of the door and new people. Nola understood the messages today and we will continue to practice these techniques. Permalink
