After a long search to find a trainer for our pup "Lou", we decided to contact Bark Busters and it was definitely the right decision. We needed some help with Lou with severe separation anxiety as well as overall behavior such as jumping on people, chewing and biting, and leash training. James met with us for an initial long training session and after that we could already see positive results. The follow-up sessions with James in person and through text have been so helpful and it is so reassuring to know that we can call James anytime with any concerns. The techniques that James offered are amazing and it was great to be able to see James work with Lou and then help coach us through the training methods as well. We have a ways to go with Lou but everyday we see improvement and are able to reinforce with proven methods that work! Thank you Bark Busters!
In less than two hours, James at Bark Buster's taught us how to create boundaries with our one year old yellow lab/golden retriever rescue pup. Lilly would jump on me ALL THE TIME and now we are able to sit at the dinner table without a single jump or nudge. By teaching us effective communication skills, Lilly has manners when greeting guests, no longer nibbles on fingers and is a calmer dog who loves her snuggles and belly rubs. we are in awe in the quick transformation we have seen and are grateful for James and the training philosophy of Bark Busters.
Honestly, we were about to give our puppy up. She was unruly!!! Unwalkable! And not sociable at all with both other animals and humans! But in just 2 sessions (2 weeks) with James at Bark Busters... Her behavior has improved immensely. On walks.... She no longer pulls my arm off, no longer bites the leash, no longer chases cars, and no longer lunges agressively at other dogs & humans. She will actually sit, pay attention to me, and not move until i say ok when other dogs/humans walk by. Guests.... we can now have guests over without crating her and her going wildly crazy in the crate!! She can sit with our guests too without head butting them and licking them to death. In just 2 weeks, 90% of her bad behavior is gone. (She's still chewing a lot but she's still in her puppy phase... and we havent started working on that really.) Bark Busters impressively helped with bad behavior and all her cuteness/happiness is still there (just not obnoxiously anymore). Even the 1st session did wonders! I am so impressed and will definitely say it's worth every penny. I highly highly recommend them!
we had the pleasure of working with James for our 2 year old puppy Douglas. he was a very anxious boy who would spend his days barking at any noise he heard and would constantly pull on the leash. 2 sessions later our sweet boy is changed for the better! I would recommend him to any dog owner for any dog problems!
