Trainer Note:
Spike and Pippi have been really struggling in their new home. The move for them has been very stressful and has led to dogs becoming very reactive to sounds around them in the home. Mackenzie has been really frustrated because she did not know how to show and guide her dogs that everything is (OKAY). Today I taught her how to teach and guide her dogs and they responded very well! They didn't even bark at the doorbell!

Trainer Note:
Really great first session. We addressed her separation anxiety and jumping on guests. She responded very well during our session. She has also started to develop some aggression; we have identified the underlying triggers and are teaching her that aggression is not the response and to trust Yalda's lead.

A lot to absorb for me (not the dog). Josh is very knowledgeable. Hoping for the best! Everything makes good sense!

Trainer Note:
Barklee has turned to marking all over Jerry's home. This has been driving him crazy, but today was the first paw in the right direction. Now that Jerry has the tools and the knowledge, we will get Barklee on track!

Josh speaks "dog". We saw Trouble come around in just a few minutes with him. He really cares for animals and it shows.

Trainer Note:
Trouble has been very aggressive with her handlers and new people in the home. She really struggles on walks and in the home with dogs and people. Today we addressed her aggression and overall behavior. Today Mark and his wife were able to move freely through their home without her attacking their feet.

Really great first session with Kandi! She is a very great puppy, and we are now creating a plan for a really well-behaved dog. I am looking forward to her progress over the coming weeks and months!

Extremely informative session. Joshia is very knowledgeable and made learning very understandable. We saw immediate behavior change with our puppy.

Joshua taught us so much on how to interact with our dog and restructure our behavior to train her and make her feel safe in her environment and with us. We are excited to apply what we learned and continue working with Bark Busters!

Trainer Note:
Mia has a new home and today we addressed how to make her feel more comfortable. We also worked though her separation anxiety today and created a plan to help her be calm and relaxed when left alone. We also worked on her aggression and reactivity to people. She responded very well, and Eliza was very pleased with our results today!

Hazel hasn't been able to walk outside without barking at trucks, trash trucks, and dogs! Today was the first day we walked past several trucks, and she was calm! Lynn was really pleased and so was her husband! Now they have the knowledge and tools to be consistent.

Trainer Note:
Sky has been anxious in the home to the point where now she is barking at everyone and every sound. Jennifer has felt trapped in her home with her dogs Sky and Zues. We addressed her barking and leash reactivity and had great success today. We also worked on Zues's leash manners and door manners. Jennifer was very pleased with our results today!

Indy came around quickly. Training methods got results to wearing/ walking on leash. After a couple of attempts walked right into crate! Started to come when called!

Trainer Note:
Indy is an amazing dog, but after being in her new home she was really struggling! Mike called us because it had been two months and he couldn't get near her to put a leash on. She wouldn't come to him and would always run away when he engaged her. Today all that changed, she came when called! He walked her for the first time. He was able to interact with her and spent a lot of the day interreacting with her. Mike was very happy to be able to start to build a relationship with his dog Indy!
