    Michael came to help with my 10 month old Australian Shepherd, who is mostly blind and hard of hearing, and my 6 year old Papillon/Springer mix. On day one Michael took the time to listen to all my concerns and carefully explain how to help and I saw an immediate drastic change, especially in my 10mo who was the main concern. I am blown away and so grateful for the help.

    We have had a fantastic experience working with Lydia thus far! We were struggling with our new dog's severe separation anxiety. We felt like we couldn't leave the home without at times. The tools we learned from Bark Busters changed EVERYTHING. We now have a dog that can be confident and independent on her own. The fundamenal tools they gave us made such a tremendous difference in allowing us to properly train our dogs. We're so excited to continue working towards new goals with the bark busters team.

    We have had one of the best experiences working with Michael as our dog trainer. We have three German Shepherds, a 6 year old, a 2 year old, and a 10 month old, and from day one Michael’s training approach helped us better understand our dogs and how to communicate with them.
    What we appreciated most is the technique Michael teaches. It is firm but not aggressive, and it really focuses on setting clear boundaries while still allowing you to build a strong relationship with your dog. As dog lovers, that meant a lot to us.
    We have worked with other trainers in the past, but Michael’s program truly stands above the rest. The difference in our dogs’ behavior and in our confidence as owners has been incredible.
    If I could give more than five stars, I absolutely would. Highly recommend Michael to anyone looking for a trainer who truly understands dogs and how to teach owners the right way to work with them.

    I met with Michael about two months ago and saw changes in my dog while he was still there! Since then I really feel as though I have been given a new way of communicating with Teddy. He is responding so well and his behavior has improved so much Since my bark busters training. I am grateful and recommend this method so highly!

    Was super patient! Let my mom and I ask all kinds of questions and never seemed to change his attitude. Was very good at calling us out for little things we should change while teaching us certain training techniques. Overall very excellent experience.

    Training with Michael has been incredible so far. I feel so grateful this is the company I decided to go with. The theory works.

    I had a great experience with Michael of Barkbusters. He was very patient and gentle with Teddy and left us with some great exercises to practice. Grateful to Michael for all his help.

    Michael did a great job training me and teaching me how to work with my dog to stop her from barking in the house, stay out from underfoot and not beg for food. She also became much easier to walk with his training! He is always ready to help with any issue that comes up with her. Bark Busters and Michael have been great to work with!

    Michael and the Bark Busters program is excellent. As owners of a new puppy without much experience, we felt confident after the first session and so did our puppy.

    Photo of Chanel, Dolly, Gigi Recently my daughter, along with our 3 dogs , and I moved from a large home with a large fenced yard to an apartment. This move had a very negative affect on our dogs who were never leash trained along with barking issues from many other dogs in the building. Heard great things about Bark Busters so hired them and had one session today. We already see improvement with the lessons we learned to guide our dogs into a happy, safe life at the new place. ( after the first day!)
