We LOVE BarkBusters! Brandon and Marlene have been outstanding in their training and response time when we have a question/concern. We adopted our puppy when she was 3.5 months old and wanted to start her training with a method that worked for us. Brandon came to our home and got us started and the subsequent zoom calls have been nothing less than life saving. The guidance we get is basic common sense and the redirection is for us as much as it is for Charlotte. The harness and collars really work and are easy to use without hurting or scaring Charlotte.
My husband and I highly recommend using Bark Busters! We are planning to be life time members to ensure if any new 'bad' habits arise we can get them address as soon as possible. If you feel on the fence about reaching out to Bark Busters...don't be, just email them for a chat and you will see for yourself how good having a dog can be.
Brandon has been very helpful and wonderful to work with! He has provided me with a lot of great support in how to improve my dog's separation anxiety, timid behavior, walking, potty training, and much more. He is extremely knowledgeable and has great communication in between sessions for questions or concerns. I highly recommend using Brandon and his team for training! I have seen great progress in a short amount of time and am excited for the new skills we will be working on together!
My rescue dog (Dusty) has a lot of anxiety issues and we were having problems with house training her; Brandon was so amazing with teaching us how to communicate with Dusty and helping us understand what she was feeling. We had 3 sessions with him over the span of 6 months and in that time she became a completely different dog! All of the teachings are easy to understand and implement; plus they're all positive reinforcement (nothing involving shock collars, shouting, or getting rough with the dogs at all). He was also available whenever we had any questions via email, phone call, or text in between sessions. I can't recommend this service highly enough!
I have had only had the initial visit with Brandon and I am truly amazed! Not only is he wonderful, his knowledge and teaching style is wonderful! I have two German Shepherds who are litter-mates, a male and a female. The immediate response I got from the dogs were amazing. One example is when they were pups, I got them when they were 12 weeks, they are now 2.5, they were allowed on my bed. However, as they grew and began shedding more I no longer wanted them on my bed. I could not keep them from jumping on my bed so I used a baby gate to keep them out of my room. For the first time ever that night after training I took the gate down and they did NOT jump on my bed but slept next to the bed. It seems like a miracle to me lol. Thank you Brandon/Bark Busters!
Brandon worked with my 6 month old puppy for about 2 hours...I couldn't believe how quickly his techniques worked. Brandon explained the philosophy of Bark Busters and taught us how to do it...I am so glad that I decided to use them for training ....I look forward to more interaction and help with Buckshot...thanks Bark Busters..
