    Photo of Charlie Thanks to James at Bark Busters, our 7 year old dog no longer lunges at other dogs when we walk her! James showed us great techniques that actually work and it was unbelievable how fast it worked. We were also taught what to do when we have visitors come to the door. We have a different dog! Highly recommend using Bark Busters.

    First, this is a must read review!
    I honestly at the beginning thought there was no way with how they set this up that is this EVER going to work. First, my dog was out of hand. Did not sit still for a moment! She is a rescue, 37lbs, 4 years old, NO basics (sit, stay, down, etc) and was not housebroken. Training her on my own was very difficult as she did not want to listen. I was seriously at my wits end thinking I could not do this. But…. I never give up on dogs. After our first training session with James, I laughed thinking nope, and he’s not coming back for 3 weeks? Wow. Well, let me say, this training ME to train MY dog, Morgan, was absolutely the most incredible thing ever! In 3 weeks, I had her listening, I had her under control, I had my space if needed, and our walks became soooo very enjoyable! She was used to eating everything and anything off the ground… even ate an entire jellyfish!! In those 3 weeks, she has not touched one thing on the ground!! She is so trainable now I almost can’t believe it!
    When Morgan first arrived, I had to have my bedroom gated for my cat. My cat ate there, drank there and litter box was now in my bathroom. My cat had full run of the house if he wanted it, but no way I could feed him out in the same room with the dog. Well, that has ALL changed too!. I have my bedroom back, litter box back out in laundry room and they eat together! It’s truly amazing. My cat and dog are best friends now.
    I 1000% recommend James and this training. Simply amazing is all I can say. I was not a believer, did not want to spend the money, but wow! It is worth it and I am a believer. If I can do this, anyone can. Our dogs are worth it! Don’t ever give up and this is simply some of the best training I have ever received!

    Photo of Stella Such nice and incredibly helpful people. Our dog is almost 4, and we thought we’d never be able to get her out of these bad habits that she’s always had. But they really helped us control her negative behaviors in a way that is not demeaning in any way. Our dog is thriving and we couldn’t be happier. Really worth the investment.

    Photo of Maple I cannot give enough high praise to James. He is knowledgeable, patient and empathetic. I saw a drastic difference in my girls behavior after the first session. The homework is manageable and you really see results. James helped me feel confident and reassured throughout the entire process. My dog and I’s relationship is the best it’s ever been now that I understand her behavior and can speak her language. For the first time I can see the light! Without James help, I’m not sure her and I would still be in each others lives in the long run. Contacting Bark Busters is the best decision I’ve ever made for her and I.

    Photo of Tighe & Bodhi Our family was all over the place when it came to training our dogs. I reached out to Bark Busters as I loved the idea that they would come to our home and work with us in our house. I also was impressed that they offer a lifetime commitment to helping us work with our dogs.
    James Rodriguez is our trainer. Our first visit was reassuring. He met with our entire family & our dogs. He explained the methods (loved that they don’t use shock collars) and how those methods help us understand how dogs think.
    We made the commitment and the results are very encouraging. I’ve had dogs my entire life and I recommend this method to anyone struggling with their pup’s behaviors. It works!
    James is knowledgeable, calm, encouraging and our dogs love him too.

    Well worth the money! James is so knowledgeable, honest, personable and magical with dogs. Trust him. Our dog now has No anxiety when we leave him to run errands, decreased incidences of barking to almost none- we are still in training and listens to our commands with the proper techniques taught to us :)
    So happy!! And so is our dog;).

    Today was my first session with Bark Busters. James came out and gave us so much information and explained the entire process. You could see his love for dogs and the opportunity to help with the training process. I would absolutely recommend Bark Busters to anyone with training needs. Thank you James for a great session. - Kathy Harrell

    Photo of Betty 4 stars because it’s a little pricey but worth it! We adopted our Betty when she was around 1 year old and knew she had the potential to be a good girl. But after a few months she started testing her boundaries and we started losing hope in her. We reached out to Bark Busters and James trained us how to train Betty. Now she comes when called, walks well on leash, and we know how to redirect her or keep her away when needed. It’s also great to know we can reach back out to Bark Busters whenever we have questions or issues.

    Photo of Levi & Maggie Michelle Rodriguez is wonderful! It's a process, not an instant fix and you have to do the work if you want to be successful. She's super supportive and the training is available for the life of your dog. Every time we run into a new situation she's there to help me through it. If you're willing to work on the training every day you WILL see results, this program works!!! And all without fear or punishing your best friend (or friends), just learning to be the leader of your pack!
