We would highly recommend Bark Busters! They have exceeded our expectations. Ryanne has given us the training and the tools to be better dog owners. Our dogs have not only improved their problematic behaviors but they are now secure and confident in their environment. Ryanne has helped us work through dog to dog aggression, resource guarding, jumping, mouthing, passive manipulation and introducing a new puppy to the home and resident dog. Ryanne is very knowledgeable, professional and a pleasure to work with. Her follow up and follow through is top notch! Excellent value and we are so happy with the results.
Hi John & Carissa! We’re grateful that you took the time to leave us a review. Hope the pack is well and everyone is thriving together :-) pls reach out at any time.
Our dog Henry is a great dog (yellow lab, 5 years old) and he listened so well when we first got him (1 1/2 year old) Over time he started ignoring us more. Or did things on his time, when he wanted too. He was definitely running our home! (he was alfa!)
Soon he became more and more aggressive!
To the point we all (dog included) didn’t trust each other anymore!
We love our dog so much, We ignored all the signs! (frankly, we just didn’t know what our next steps should be or how he would react if we continued this way!)
We made the decision to write to Bark Busters!
AND WE ARE SO GLAD WE DID!!
They were very attentive, answer back quickly, very friendly and understanding!!
They treat every family/dog in their home (where it’s comfortable!) even in unique situations! (like ours!)
Ryanne (who came to our home) has set us in the right direction to building back our trust with our dog!
It was awkward at first but we trusted and followed the process!!
AND after 6 weeks we have seen such amazing progress! (dog and us included!)
Sometimes having a loving, healthy relationship with your dog looks a little different then what we expect. (or from our previous dogs)
We are learning our dog needs a little more attention BUT in the right direction by his trusted owners!
We are learning to trust him and for him to trust us back!
This was a change made for the better!!
We highly recommend!!
We would do this all over again!!
We are all happier because of Ryanne and Bark Busters!! ?
Thanks for sharing your story Amber! Its been a pleasure to work w/ you, your family and Henry! I love seeing my clients have success and I especially love knowing that I have given you the tools you need to keep building a better relationship with your dog. The success you see is due to your time & effort working w/ Henry! YOU are doing an excellent job! Reach out anytime you need more support! Thank you! Br, Ryanne

Ryanne has been a such a gift to me and my 2 year old adopted Shitzu, Ollie. Until we met, Ollie was not housebroken, jumped on me and everyone he met, nipped like crazy, pulled and ran all over when on leash, escaped through the front door, and although being a very affectionate dog, was a terror. I was exhausted and questioning what I was thinking by adopting a dog! I tried other, less expensive, forms of training and nothing was working. Then I found Ryanne and Bark Busters. Her training has been worth every penny, and more. In 5 weeks my dog is now housebroken, walks beside me beautifully, doesn’t nip, jump, run through doors, sits, stays, and is a very well behaved little dog!! Ryanne has taught me the tools to correct my dog when needed and I couldn’t be happier! Ryanne is a real pleasure to work with, is responsive, somehow knows what Ollie is thinking, and our favorite Alpha!! Thank you, Ryanne!!!
Thanks Joan! Your diligent training with Ollie speaks for itself! Excellent work! I'm very happy to have been a part of your transformation:)

I’ve been trying to figure out how to give more than 5 stars but Google seems pretty particular. Suffice it to say Bark Busters, and Omar in particular, are MIRACLE WORKERS. 3 year old CUJO dog that is now calm cool and collected. After TWO MEETINGS. We were skeptical as it sounds too good to be true but our dog is living furry proof.
Thanks Christina! Its been a pleasure working with you guys and of course Bogart! Reach out ANYTIME w/ questions or for additional support!

I highly recommend training with Bark Busters. Ryanne has helped us tremendously with our two year old dog. He was definitely acting as “leader of the pack” around our house. The methods Ryanne is teaching us to improve our dog’s behavior is so effective you won’t believe it until you try it.
Ryanne and Omar have 100% changed my life! Before Bark Busters I was told that I would have to put my dog down or give him away because of his aggression. Now he’s happy and everyone else in my family is happy!
We have a large (50+ lbs.) 7-month-old German Shephard. Big dog but he is still a puppy (Teddy). After an initial consultation with Ryanne to discuss the behavioral issues that we were having, she was quickly able to help us establish ourselves as leaders for Teddy. After we learned to speak dog, Teddy began to respond immediately during the first session. We are continuing to practice with him and progress is moving along just fine. We would have never thought of a way to communicate with Teddy without using treats and discipline.
Thank you so much for the kind words! I wish you guys continued success w/ Teddy's training and can be contacted ANYTIME for support!

After just one session I noticed a huge change in my dogs behavior and felt like I had a variety of tools to support my dog. Ryanne is knowledgeable and friendly. She makes herself available for support between sessions and it’s clear she is truly passionate about what she does. I would highly recommend Ryanne and the Bark Busters model to anyone who wants support in having a happy and healthy dog.
I cannot say enough good things about Ryanne and Bark Busters! The training, support and guidance that Ryanne has provided for us and our dog Coco has truly changed our family! Our rescue dog Coco was struggling with her behavior when guests came over and encounters with other dogs, from the first session we saw immediate changes with Coco. We have a truly happier dog and everyone is beyond impressed with the changes. Ryanne is always willing to help and goes above and beyond - we cannot recommend Bark Busters enough!
Thank you Louise for the opportunity to help and the kind words. I am very happy for all of your success with Coco! Be sure you keep up with your exercises and CALL ME ANYTIME!

The change over three sessions has been incredible. Ryanne has been a joy to work with. Still more work to do...mostly on changing the humans.
