We have seen good results after just a couple of sessions with John. Peanut is barking less and learning not to pull on her leash during walks. John is giving us good advice and training us to be better ‘dog parents.’
I recently hired John of Bark Busters in Naples because I was seeking guidance in training my spirited “hard headed “ 4-year-old Red Nose Pit Bull.
One of the most striking aspects of John's training methodology is his emphasis on "being the leader of the pack" and adopting a mindset of "thinking dog." Rather than relying on harsh or punitive measures, or inundating Darcy with treats, John prioritizes the establishment of a strong bond of trust and respect between owner and dog.. He recognized that Darcy thrived on structure and consistency, and he devised a training plan that aligned with her temperament and personality. By using games, interactive exercises, and real-life scenarios, John made learning both Fun and rewarding for both Darcy and me. I am happy to say that I actually enjoy walking my dog now and my family and friends are not drenched with kisses anymore. LOL
The results of John's training approach speak volumes! John prioritizes positive reinforcement and fosters a bond between owner and dog. He has a compassionate approach and commitment to empowering both canine and human clients which set’s him apart as a true leader in the field of dog training.

John is excellent! He listens and understands your specific needs with your pet and provides the best training activités to help achieve your goals. Follow up visits are extremely helpful to refocus on areas we need help with. We’re so grateful that John provides this for as long as we need. We’re making great progress and that’s all to John help! Bark Busters is a great place to go to break old or new habits. Highly recommend!
John has been great! His training techniques, work with both our dogs, and with us is top notch. It's just been a few weeks and we are already seeing positive changes in our dogs.
Thank you Shawn! remember to call with any questions.

We couldn’t be happier with our training experience with John! He is extremely professional, thorough and so pleasant to work with. We are confident that with John guidance, our precious Sailor will be such a great dog and part of our family!

Sailor is already on the way. What a wonderful dog you have. I look forward to our next lesson.

John is an exceptional dog trainer. He really knows what he’s doing. I have had only one training session so far, it’s day two and I’ve continued doing my at home training and have already seen a HUGE improvement with my dog. John doesn’t just teach you what to do, he teaches the background and fundamentals of WHY you need to do what you need to do and like with most dog training, the main issue was with how I was interacting with my dog more so than how my dog is behaving. I can’t wait to finish the program to see how well behaved Gunner is at the end of all of this!
Thank you Ricky. We've had to seek help from the very top, getting advice from Sylvia Wilson, the Lady herself, who with her husband Danny started Bark Busters in Australia, back in 1989. I should also mention Michael Konstantaras, a guy who is not only one of BB's top trainers in the USA but also took time to help me as I was learning. I say all this just to point out that if your dog has an issue, as Gunner did, we'll search the planet for the correct, gentle solution for your dogs needs.
