    Photo of Janie & Maddie My husband and I learned so much from our very first visit with Amanda! Not only did we discuss techniques to lead our dogs, but a lot of the reasons that might have been causing some of the behaviors in the first place. We already have been able to replicate the strategies with very promising results! The energy level in our home is much different and more gentle this morning than yesterday before our first session. Because our impetus for calling was several yard escapes, this training we are getting could save our dog’s life- and there’s no dollar value for that! Thank you Amanda!

    Amanda is wonderful. We recently rescued a 10-month-old dog 5 week ago, we were struggle with walks, calling, and anxiety (pacing within the house). We had our first session yesterday, immediate results. Amanda taught us how to communicate with our dog, and it was an instant change. She sent us great documentation afterward for us to continue working with our dog. Our cat even noticed the change, stopped hiding from him and was able to play with her toys for the first time in 5 weeks. We are super grateful to Amanda, and I would highly recommend her if you a getting a new dog, recently got a new dog, and/or have had a dog for awhile and need assistance on training.

    I'm so pleased!! Ivy's been a ball of anxiety for months and I had no idea of how to deal with it. After the first session, she's staying clam around her biggest triggers (cats, doorbell, me doing anything). She's always been a good dog, but now she's absolutely perfect

    Amanda is amazing! Not only is she a fantastic human and made the entire training process super easy, but she KNOWS dogs and provided great feedback throughout the training appointment. After only one lesson, Roxy and Buddy are completely new dogs! My house is now a calm, relaxing space free of dog drama and barking! I can't recommend Amanda more!~ She will absolutely be able to help with any issues you have big or small!

    Amanda is amazing at what she does! Within seconds of her arriving, my 8 month old puppy was behaving better than ever before. She is attentive, walks through all the exercises with you and takes the time to address any additional concerns you may have. She helps instill confidence in you/your ability to execute the exercises on your own. I am very grateful for her help and definitely recommend her services!

    Photo of Pancho Amanda had complete control over my two year old Sheltie during her first visit. She became the Alpha Dog and Pancho was demoted to just a member of the pack. His behavior became much less anxious and more relaxed. My initial efforts at applying the Bark Buster techniques were met with some limited success, but behavioral training between me and my dog is something that will take time and effort. It is up to me to spend the time using the Bark Buster techniques and I am highly confident that we will be successful. There are no gimmicks. Just a solid understanding and implementation of the proper relationship between you and your dog. Amanda was great and I recommend her to anyone.

    Amanda has been awesome! She took the time getting to know my family, our fur babies, and the issues we are having. She explained not just the how of dog training but the why. She taught us how to communicate with our pups and didn’t leave until we were confident in ability to complete the ‘homework’. What a pleasure and wow, different dogs before she even left. I would recommend her and would use her and Bark Busters again.

    Photo of Stella My dog Stella and I just began training with Amanda last week. I was amazed by the difference Amanda's techniques were able to produce even from the first session. Stella has been showing improvement already. I can't wait to see the end result. In addition, we have had some minor issues; however, Amanda was very reliable and quick to respond when I reached out. Amanda is super sweet, friendly, and works great with dogs. I would recommend her to anyone with a difficult dog.

    Photo of Lucy and Ruby Amanda is a terrific and amazing trainer! During our initial training session, my dogs made such huge process. Lucy (my one year old Siberian Husky/German Sheppard mix) was starting to act dominant over my older dog, and with Amanda's training methods, that all stopped after the first training session! My dogs have had no further issues after only 2 hours with Amanda! I have continued to follow all of the great advice, materials and training tools that Amanda provided, and my dogs have responded so well! In addition to addressing dominance, we have worked on jumping, door control, leash walking and other actions, and Lucy is a completely different dog after only a few weeks. I am so happy with this training, and highly recommend Amanda! She is the best!
