Dog training reviews

Like a new dog. I can't believe how simple it really is. I loved the "no treats" method and how there was no physical contact needed. This was a wonderful experience. We now are sure that we can have a happy and obedient dog. Permalink

We saw results during the first visit. I like that the training is through commands, not excessive amounts of treats or devices like shock-collars. The training is easy to learn and Bark Busters does a great job teaching you and making sure that you are retaining the results that you want. I especially like the e-mails and phone call follow ups. We have 2 dogs, Luke and Sadie, a Mastiff and Pitbull. These are 2 kinds of dogs many people fear, so I realized they needed to be disciplined. Luke was not "my" dog, my boyfriend had him before I moved in. I ignored him, and we never interacted much. Then we got Sadie and she is very excitable. I decided to use Bark Busters over other trainers and since the training began, there is a very noticeable difference with them. Luke and I have bonded, and I can even take all 150lbs of him for an enjoyable walk! I am very pleased with the results thus far, and I know it will only get better because of the continued support of Bark Busters. Thank You! Permalink

James and Michelle are extremely helpful, personable and fun to interact with. They were available, good with the dogs and better than the other options. Bark Busters communication has completely revolutionized our dog training. Before James and Michelle came along, I was resigned to believing that I'd never be able to take Paz, a stray we had for about a year, anywhere. He simply was terrified at the sight of a leash or collar. After merely 3 days of following BB's instructions, Paz was walking right next to me on a leash in the backyard!! Within 2 weeks we were walking the neighborhood. It's a true miracle as far as Paz is concerned. They took a terrified, un-domesticated dog and turned him into the perfect pet! Bark Busters has been a true miracle for our relationship with our dogs. I would recommend them to anyone committed to a REAL relationship with their best friends! Permalink

Everything was easy and the 15 minutes per day follow through fit into my schedule. Even my visitors felt the results were apparent quickly. I like that I can give my pup treats just for being cute and cuddly rather than following commands. I felt James and Michelle were a great combination of work and fun. I have had my own friends recommend them to co-workers because of the changes they saw in my dog! The encouragement that I received from James and Michelle was sincere and made me want to challenge my dog Sammy J and myself even just a little bit more. I liked the offer to take my training to any level I chose. What I wanted and am working towards is not a quick fix, it is an advanced trust with Sammy J and I. Sammy J brings even more joy to my life than before the training. It was a lot of money for me to spend on training, but it is worth every penny when Sammy J and I are happy on the beach or just hanging out. I would do it again! Thanks for everything. We love you guys! :) Permalink

The Bark Busters Home Dog Training method has given me a lot to think about to help Dolly be a better dog. Patrick explained the pleasing, natural training techniques in a way that was easy to follow and understand. I recommend Bark Busters. Permalink

Patrick made the training experience interesting and enjoyable. We saw noticeable changes in our dogs' behavior by the end of the initial lesson. Patrick explained the natural, pleasing techniques used by Bark Busters Home Dog Training in a way that was easy to follow and understand. Permalink

Rebecca taught my wife and I a few simple techniques for our dogs (Cooper and Andy) to learn from us as the new "Pack Leaders". Within six weeks, we went from out of control dogs barking non-stop, chewing things in the house and being aggressive towards other dogs, to walking/running with the dogs by our side, sitting at attention when we ask, and paying attention to the "Pack Leaders." Our dogs really took to this approach. Permalink

I have had the honor and privilege of observing David's work with a family who adopted a rescue dog from me. The session was packed with logical, practical approaches to solving problems. Results were obvious within minutes! David gave me new ways of looking at issues, and simple, clear-cut ways of solving them. Since then, I have referred all my clients whose dogs have behavior issues to Bark Busters with complete confidence. I am so grateful for David and his work because I know that so many owners and their dogs just need to communicate properly. I have faith in David to give owners the tools to do so. Permalink

When Kurt first came to our home, I was very skeptical about the information we were given. It seemed too easy to actually work! We have a chow mix and pom/min.esk mix. We had various degrees of aggression concerns with both dogs, barking issues with one, and one was tearing up my house.---I noticed changes in our dogs after the first visit! The techniques Kurt showed us really worked. If I did not see this with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe it. ---The trainer is professional and will assist/observe you and your dog(s) and advise you on how to train and interact. My dogs were out of control, which was causing a strain on us as a family. I can honestly say, after the training started, our lives have greatly improved. I recommend Bark Busters to everyone! The price is fair, and it is so worth it. These techniques are amazing! Thank you for giving us our home and peace back! Permalink

I absolutely observed noticeable results by the end of training. Instant improvement. Robin worked really well with my dog, Lucky. He responded very quickly to her techniques. I got exactly what I wanted out of the Bark Busters training. Permalink
