    Photo of Harley Josh is a wonderful trainer. Our dog immediately responded to his leadership and direction. We look forward to more training sessions in the future.

    Harley is a great pup he is learning the basics in the house and also on the leash. He responded very well during our first session. We also addressed his leash reactivity! I am looking forward to his progress in over the next few weeks.

    Photo of Murphy It was a lot of overwhelming information. However, I am glad Josh was there and never felt like questioning his methods. It was a wonderful experience and Josh is very knowledgeable and kind! I am very grateful to have found Bark Busters.

    Our first session went really well today! We worked on recall and a few basics. We also addressed his separation anxiety and reactivity to dogs. I am looking forward to his progress over the coming weeks! With Christin being consistent he will continue to improve.

    Zeus is a really great dog overall he has just been struggling in the home with barking at sounds and people. He is also reactive when bikers pass by. Today we addressed his barking and he responded very well! Daphne was very pleased with his response. She will continue working with him and I will be following up with her soon! Looking forward to his progress.

    Photo of Tinley / Rufus Josh was very patient with myself, and my two dogs Tinley saw improvement right away with using his senses. I learned about the importance of food ingredients. I am looking forward to living a better trained and controlled lifestyle with my dogs.

    Trainer Note:
    Tinley and Rufus responded great during our first session. We went over several basic exercises and also addressed his hyperactivity. Tinsley being a German short haired pointer needs a lot of stimulation and I taught Alicia sever games/ techniques to do so. We also addressed Rufus leash reactivity and leash manners. I will be seeing them soon and am looking forward to their progress.

    Photo of Rex Knowledgeable, learned about my dog's personality, and nutrition facts!

    Trainer Note:
    Rex is a great pup but has found himself the leader of the home. With the stress of that position in the home he has started barking at all noises and people interning the home. Today was the first time he was calm in the home and didn't bark as someone entering the home. With Iris taking charge he can now finally relax. With them being consistent he will continue to improve.

    George is a great pup! He is learning very fast and was responsive during our first session. We addressed his leash manners and leash reactivity. We taught his front door manners and personal boundaries; Michelle was very pleased with how he responded. We are going to continue working with him in the coming weeks. I am looking forward to his progress.

    Photo of Lily I learned so much in just a few hours that I can definitely apply immediately. I am already seeing results. I am so grateful for Joshua and his vast knowledge.

    Staci was really great to teach and work with her pup Lily is a very smart pup. We are teaching her some basics and addressed her barking. I gave her mom Staci several exercises to simulate her mentally and also address her behavior. With consistency Lily will continue improving.

    Photo of Moose / Argo Josh was absolutely amazing! He took his time to explain his entire method to us and really helped us to understand not only *what* to do, but *why*. He answered all of our questions, and our dogs responded to the training immediately. They were seriously so good within MINUTES of Josh's arrival. My husband and I feel fully prepared and confident to continue our dog's training after Josh taught us what to do! Thank you so much!

    Photo of Freya Josh was positive, inviting, and easy to talk to. He really explained a lot about why our dog behaves the way she does and how to correct it. He also helped us do practical training ourselves, so we can repeat them ourselves.

    Trainer Note:
    Rebecca picked up our training techniques very quickly and her dog Freya responded very well to her. She was very surprised in how her dog reacted. Freya had been very reactive on leash, and she had been struggling to walk her. Today we addressed it and she was calm walking past and around dogs! Mom was proud!
