Client Reviews and Testimonials

Rascal has done his best to live up to his name and the Westie reputation. He has exhibited a stubborness at times which has hindered his learning process and frustrated his owners from time to time. A major contributor to the difficulties has been the weather. Don't schedule training in December/January/February, especially this year. We are however persevering and will ultimately have a perfectly behaved Westie companion. Mark has certainly done a wonderful job in communicating the necessary skills and strategy to make this happen. Permalink

Lisa was very easy to understand and I love the resources left with us so we could remember. Both our dogs have already improved with walking on the leash. I love how praise is enough of a reward without using any treats. The training session was fun and our dogs were exhausted! I would recommend Bark Busters because I can already tell this is going to really help our dogs and us to be a better pack. Permalink

EXCEEDED MY EXPECTATIONS! I am so glad I found your website! Totally brought the techniques to a fundamental level - made it very interesting and interactive. I was a non-believer when he [John] said we'd see results. Boy, was I wrong! And happy! Permalink

I called Larry because Mia was barking uncontrollably, would not come, and was getting aggressive by charging other dogs and people. Larry addressed Mia's needs directly, one at a time. He demonstrated what was needed and showed me how to do it. I am very satisfied and Larry provided excellent advice. Permalink

Easy to learn techniques to put me in charge instead of my dog. Permalink

We could not believe the results we saw in such a short time. We highly recommend Bark Busters. I believe Patrick trained us so we will be able to control Buddy and have a normal lifestyle. Permalink

You did a great job. Thanks! Permalink

Friendly and very convenient; looking forward to follow up visit. Permalink

Christine Guth is a highly skilled professional dog trainer and animal behavioral therapist. From the moment Christine entered our home, we knew we made the right choice in contacting Bark Busters . Not only did Christine teach us skills to properly train our dogs, she also expanded our knowledge of animal behavior/traits-animal nutrition--much of which we were unaware of. Christine 's teaching skills taught us how to actually train dogs in a short time frame through a daily disciplined routine, which only takes minutes at each session. Because of Christine, we now have better control of our dogs-- we enjoy working with them more --we realize our responsibilities in owning pets--Christine gave us the tools and training aids needed to accomplish our goal, well-behaved dogs. The hands on training with Christine was and is invaluable to us. She is caring, prompt, thorough, precise, and offers endless answers/examples/printouts for problems/questions that arise about our dogs. We look forward to remaining in contact with her for a long time to come. Permalink

Jason is a different dog, went from a crazy puppy to a mellow pup. I would recommend Tom and his Barkbusters to everyone. Permalink
