Hi Sheri, Just wanted to say thank you! Wow, she is already better. the towel is on the stove and she is leaving it alone. Until next time, we will do our homework with our big fluffy cute cute girl. Permalink

Great technique. Very surprised about the quick results. Can't wait to have silence when delivery men come by! Permalink

It was a great learning experience all the way around. Very effective! We will learn to address the digging and chewing as we progress. Permalink

My wife and I have two dogs that loved to bark. When guests were not over it was manageable, but if anyone ever stopped by it was nonstop until they left. Within the first 15 minutes of our session Brad quieted our dogs down, which gave us an opportunity to discuss the Barkbusters method. During this discussion my mother was over, an event that normally would have the dogs barking if they were not with us. For the first time in as long as I can remember the dogs were behaving downstairs while we talked upstairs. Within the first week we have had multiple guests over and our dogs have had minimal distraction.....we finally have our home back and can have friends over without nonstop barking!! Although somewhat costly, I fully endorse this program and especially Brad (he was extremely friendly, great at demonstrating techniques / explaining the program, and was obviously a dog lover)...ask yourself how much a calm/safe home is worth? How much is a happier dog worth? Is it really worth having a nice TV to watch games if your dogs are constantly barking during it? Is it worth having a nice new couch if friends/family can never come over and sit on it? We are still practicing with our dogs and still get to pet them/show them our affections and let them lay with us on the couch, something we worried about with other programs!! If you have any behaviors you would like to fix give Brad a call right now! Permalink

We were very pleased with the techniques and tips that our trainer helped us to learn. He was adept at identifying the reinforcing behaviors we were providing that increased Gryffin's issues. With his help Gryffin has decreased pulling, barking incessently, and showing aggression to people when they rang the doorbell. Permalink

When we first reached out to Alison we had recently adopted a nearly one-year-old Golden Retriever. We were new dog owners and he wasn't trained on a leash or well socialized. We were finding it hard to control him when he became excited around visitors, other dogs and really anything he came across. He'd jump, pull and ignore commands. Alison worked with us and gave us creative yet very practical and effective techniques to take control of the situation and better communicate with our new pup. Alison is a delight to work with -- she is patient, non-judgmental and gets results fast. After just a few fun training sessions we could have guests over and not worry about him scaring them away, and walks are now enjoyable for everyone. It's all about understanding your dog, learning to speak his language and setting up the chain of command. Alison is an excellent teacher at all this and we recommend her to anyone who wants a better behaved and happy dog. Permalink

Our Bark Busters Trainer explained the entire process with us and our children. Our dog showed immediate response to the training techniques. We couldn't be happier with Bark Busters. Permalink

Very pleased with results! Permalink

I interviewed a lot of trainers, all with different methods, this is a method I really feel like I am communicating with my dogs. Within minutes I noticed a difference, they were staying away from a room I did not want them in. The technique is respect, mutual respect. Permalink

Very common sense, easy to do... It works! Permalink
