    Johnny helped us with our 2 dogs as we transitioned into our new home. One of our dogs is super anxious and reacts by barking and gets our other dog worked up to the point where they are both always on edge. Johnny was great at showing us techniques and drills on how we can work with our dogs to help with the reactivity and anxiety. One of our dogs is not food driven so we thought this was going to be an issue but Johnny was very patient and found the reward that motivated our dog. Johnny spent multiple sessions at our home learning about our dogs and we saw progress after the first session but even more so as we continued working with him. Johnny helped us be more confident as owners and our dogs more content in their new home. Thank you Bark Busters!

    Photo of Cowboy 10/10 would recommend Ryan and his team. It’s very evident from our first lesson and follow up that he truly understands dogs and their behaviors in addition to their humans! We had a follow up with Ryan since our guard dog has been picking up a new behavior (barking and charging the fence when people walk by) and pulling on the leash. Ryan came out to us within the week and was able to help us get the behaviors back under control. We thought we were doing everything right and it turns out myself and husband were missing a crucial step in his training. Cowboy was more placating us instead of listening/respecting. With the help of Ryan, we are all back on track and doing great!

    We've been very pleased with Sharon at Bark Busters. This is our first puppy....in 25 years...so it's been great to relearn the do's and don'ts, especially now that we're retired and have more time...to pay attention :) Would highly recommend them as a solid INVESTMENT in making your long-term DOGGY relationship, the BEST it can be. It's great knowing we can get advice...whenever we need it.

    Pam was wonderful to work with during a really emotional time for our family. After our dog Oakley bit me on the 4th of July, Pam helped us understand Oakley’s behavior by explaining things in a way that was simple and easy to follow. She took the time to listen and was incredibly understanding of how upsetting the experience was for me.
    Oakley loved her right away, which made the process feel even more reassuring. Pam showed us a few simple techniques that made an immediate difference, and we started seeing improvements right away. We’re so grateful for her patience, compassion, and expertise.
    We would not hesitate to recommend Pam for any of your dog training needs. She's simply the BEST!!

    Sharon at Bark Busters has really helped me develop the right behaviors to bring out the best in my beautiful Bernie doodle...BAYOU. I've never really trained a puppy before, but Sharon breaks down the skills and demonstrates them so well... we get a nearly instant response. Bark Busters can help you with short-term issues...or like us...you can have her be available for the life of your dog....as their (your) needs change. It's a GREAT INVESTMENT in a well-behaved and happier fur friend.

    I had such an amazing experience with Jared and it’s only been 2 lessons so far. My original concerns with Luna (my dog) was her excessive barking and separation anxiety. During training, I remembered that she also has no recall, LOL. Anyways, Luna’s 7 years old, she’s the first dog I’ve ever really tried “training” with, and she only knows your basic commands (sit, down, paw, stay, leave it) but I had absolutely no idea what to do about her separation anxiety or barking. She’ll bark at whatever sounds she hears and whatever she sees outside of our apartment.

    Our first lesson with Jared was great, he taught me how to correct Luna’s behavior and how to read her body language. He actually even showed me that Luna actually knew how to heel and was really good at walking (with Jared at least.. LOL). He showed me some practices/training I could do with Luna on my own time. He’s extremely knowledgeable and really patient. There were times where I just didn’t catch onto Luna’s body language or I didn’t know when to correct her and Jared was there to help me recognize those behaviors.

    After the first lesson, Luna hardly barks at the sounds she hears and the people, cars, and/or animals she’ll see outside of our apartment. Surprisingly, this has lead into her separation anxiety as well. She hardly cries now when we are gone for work, which we are so grateful for. It was extremely stressful for us when she was gone. Now we’re currently working on her recall and honestly, it’s been going great so far. Even with all the YouTube videos or advice all over the internet, I just couldn’t get a grip on what to do with Luna or how to get it to work — until I found Jared!! I honestly couldn’t recommend him more!

    Karen is awesome.
    The lesson plans worked. I was surprised how quickly I was able to see the changes.
    Over the last couple months my dog changed a lot.
    The loud barking behind my head when on my computer. Fixed
    Pulling and biting the leash on walks. Fixed
    Chasing my cat, jumping on me, stealing the other animals food...etc
    He is now the dog I wanted when I got him.

    Thank you Karen!

    We started with Johnny to help with our first dog, Elroy about 3 years ago. He was a 1 year rescue Pitbull with no leash manners, reactivity to people and dogs, and serious resource guarding. Our sessions with Johnny gave my wife and I confidence to know that Elroy was safe and able to work with and improve. Through the right guidance, training, and tools Elroy is now an amazing family dog who loves going hiking and enjoys going out almost anywhere with us. With much consulting with Johnny we decided Elroy was ready to bring another dog into our family, so about 7 months ago we added Apollo, a 2 month old Rottweiler. Johnny has continue to support us from introducing the dogs to each other, each stage of Apollo's puppy development, and now continued training and development for both dogs together. Johnny has been extremely supportive with any dog related questions and we love that he is able to help us with anything we want to add to our dogs skill set as well as encouraging us to try new things to enrich our dogs.
