My trainer, Scott, was incredible! He took the time to listen to all my concerns and explained his training technique very clearly. We practiced these training methods on our first meeting and my dog, Luna, did fantastic! She was like a different dog. I already feel so excited for my dog and our relationship going forward. It has always been stressful to take her outside because she can be reactive towards other dogs. I avoid having people over to my home because Luna will jump on guests and misbehave. We made huge strides in such a short amount of time. I am excited to continue working with Scott and my dog to further reinforce these new skills. It gives me such hope for the future! Highly recommend!
I recently adopted a cute cattle dog mix mutt named Nellie. Although adorable, Nellie was teething and her nipping and biting behavior was a nearly constant issue. It was difficult to do any sort of training with her or to even pet her and give her affection due to the constant biting. I tried all sorts of techniques from watching YouTube videos, but nothing seemed to work. Scott showed me a technique based upon how a mother dog corrects her puppies' behavior. The results were instant and dramatic. It was like Nellie was almost a different dog. I was simply amazed and very relieved after struggling for weeks with the issue. I highly recommend Scott.
Scott is a literal dog whisperer! His training is unique in that he teaches you to speak their language so they actually understand and therefore respond to the commands! It just works. Scott is also very professional and committed to your dog’s success.
I was feeling a hopeless about my dogs behavior and had no idea how to correct it. Scott helped me understand my dogs language and how to communicate with him. He had me in tears seeing the progress my fur baby made within an hour! I am looking forward to a better relationship with my dog!
I have never seen such a quick response to training before, within an hour both pups were behaving noticeably better. My level of stress about having people in my house with my territorial pup is way lower.
We contacted Scott when our dog began having aggression towards her brother and other dogs when it came to resource guarding. Scott was completely amazing and has truly given us the tools to not only manage the problem but to actively improve both of our dogs’ behavior. He talked us through his methods even before we had to officially hire him, giving us all of the information upfront. We would highly recommend letting Scott and his team improve your dogs behavior!
I have been having reactivity issues with my shepherd mix Gizmo that have been worsening for the last few months. I have tried another dog training company in Denver in the past who came to my house and tried to sell me expensive e-collars and prong collars, without actually helping my dog's behavior. So, I was hesitant to spend money for another dog trainer, but Scott and BarkBusters has been worth every penny! What I love about Scott's approach is he teaches you how to communicate with your dog, and how to understand your dog's behavior so you can correct it. He has helped me build a new relationship with Gizmo, one in which he respects, trusts, and listens to me. The training tools that Scott provides (at no extra cost) are simple, easy to use, and cruelty free. After even just ONE session with Scott I could already see a change in Gizmo! Any dog parent of a reactive dog knows how difficult it is and how much anxiety it can produce (for both you and your pup), and for the first time in months I felt hopeful that change would actually be possible. So far Gizmo has made amazing strides with the help of Scott - he no longer leash pulls, he no longer has ball aggression, he doesn't bark when he hears a knock on the door, and his reactivity towards dogs on walks has significantly decreased. It is because he doesn't feel the need to be scared or protective, since he now views me as the pack leader when previously it was the other way around. I have a totally new understanding of relationship dynamics and dog behavior, which has been the key to having successful results so quickly. I am eternally grateful to Scott for what he's done for Gizmo and I, and it is so awesome knowing that if I ever need anything he is just a phone call away and will come for follow-up visits as needed for life!
Scott is a great trainer.
Our dog Velma is a rescue that is anxious and all bark no bite. When we first got her, should would bark her head off at every new person that came into the house, absolutely no way to calm her.
Since working with Scott, we have learned several tips and tricks to get her to be more calm and welcoming towards guests. We have been able to have little get togethers and family stay over with no problems now.
Before, on walks, it was so hard to walk her. She was nonstop barking and whining and we could not get control of her. It made me not want to walk her at all.
Now walking has been so much easier.There is still a lot work that needs to be done with walks but walks are no longer a battle. I know what to do in order to gain that control and her focus, making the walk stress free.
We appreciate Scott’s support during this entire journey. With this lifetime training, we know we have the support from Scott.
Scott immediately helped with my dog’s separation anxiety. I couldn’t leave the house without her and within three days she stopped barking/crying at the door when I left.. she obeys me and realizes that I am in charge :) thank you Scott! You changed our lives!

Scott at Bark Busters is incredible.
PermalinkI was blown away at how effective our first session was at correcting dominating and reactive behavior with my anxious 5-year-old cattle dog, Dallas.
No treats, shock callers, or clickers necessary! I’d recommend Scott and Bark Busters to anyone that needs assistance training their dogs
