Client Reviews and Testimonials

I learned as much as my pet and am now certain that I have a good dog - it's my pleasure to recommend Bark Busters. Permalink

Hi Maril, I could not wait a few weeks to give you an update! That innocuous little collar is indeed amazing! We went on our usual early morning Sunday walk over to the field and she walked like little lady for most of the time and even then just got 6 inches or so ahead of me. No pulling, no choking! I changed my gait and turned a few times both going and returning and she was right with me. Very few corrections were needed. When we got back to my driveway I let her on a long relaxed leash and she never once tried to go in front of me - MAGIC! In the house she has been calm. I throw in a lot of petting sessions when she is not asking for them. She really "gets" that she needs to wait for me to go through the door 1st. I will practice the door charging with visitors today when my neighbor "comes over to visit". I will work with her recall tomorrow. I am so impressed at the great effects of what really, after all, are small changes. Thank you so much for your time and I will keep you informed! Permalink

We didn't know what to expect and we were pleased with the results. Permalink

Patrick Logue did a wonderful job with Sadie. Now we must duplicate his training. We recommend Bark Busters. Permalink

This was a fun & enjoyable experience - our dog responded well and is doing great! Permalink

Amazing! For two stubborn bulldogs, the results are unbelievable!! Mark is fantastic! Permalink

Carol will taught us how to be good "pack leaders" which made both us and our dog happy! After just one session we saw a noticeable change in our dog! People now comment on how well behaved our dog is, and what our secret is...it's Bark Busters! Permalink

Leigh Ann answered all my questions and helped me further understand Bark Busters training techniques. I observed noticeable results by the end of training- even within the first hour. I was very pleased with the natural training techniques used by Bark Busters. I couldn't believe that you could actually get a dog to understand your commands without a treat, but you can. I found the training experience to be interesting and enjoyable. There was never a tense moment, and we always felt at ease. Leigh Ann Falconer exceeded all my expectations! On our first meeting, she was relaxed and made us feel at ease. She was always very knowledgeable about different techniques, and was willing to take the time to make sure we fully understood. Plus, she was always so positive, which made us very happy! Thank you! Permalink

Hi Donna- Today went better than either of us had ever dreamed. We've been very much looking forward to you coming out since we called and set up the appointment, but had no idea things would go so well! Dixie was like a different dog today! We've never been able to walk her on a leash without getting rope/leash burn on our hands and coming home frustrated and wanting to give up! We feel so empowered to have the tools we need to be able to teach her what we want instead of just yelling commands at her and becoming frustrated when she doesn't understand what we're trying to say. "Bahhh" has been used so often today in our house that even Levi [18-month-old] keeps saying it to her (haha!). There's no doubt she worked hard this morning, she's been much more calm and relaxed all day and is content just laying at our feet rather than jumping in our faces. I did have a few ladies come over this afternoon so we worked on her waiting in the living room until we opened the door. It didn't go quite as well as this morning did, but we are confident it'll get better with time. Very excited to put what we learned today to use every single day until our next appointment and really hope to impress you with our (and her!) progress. Thank you so much again! Permalink

Kathy Stetz and Betsy Foglia changed our home life! They relieved all the tension surrounding our two dogs. Specifically, we were ready to give up on our 4 year old severely troubled Boxer/Pit mix. She was nervous around all strangers and aggressive to other dogs in the neighborhood. Bark Busters was the last chance for Tootsie. If she didn't improve her behavior, she was going to the Animal Warden. After three hours of working with Kathy & Betsy and 3 weeks of practicing the techniques we learned, we have a new dog! We can walk her with confidence knowing she isn't going to charge or act aggressively toward other dogs or children. We can invite visitors into the house knowing Tootsie will play nice. After working their program, Tootsie now even allows strangers to pet her. We have a completely new and intelligent dog. We just needed Kathy, Betsy and Starr to help us find her!! Kathy and Betsy were so personable and easy to work with. They were professional and cared enough about Tootsie to be tough on us. The made multiple follow-up calls to check on our progress and offer reassurance. We would recommend Kathy and Betsy to all dog owners, they are dog miracle workers. Thank you so much! Permalink
