    Our rescue dog was nipping and aggressive toward my husband. Our first visit with Heather gave us tools to practice that will lead us back to a warm, safe home. We are committed to practicing these tools so our dog no longer fears us, but knows we are his pack!

    Heather was amazing! We have a rescue and he was attacking dad and me (family friend). He was close to having to be returned because of the fear of him attacking the kids. After just one visit he was coming up to the dad and receiving praise from him. It was amazing to watch. He will be a great addition to the family. Thanks Heather!!! 😊

    Thank goodness for Randy, or Burke may have ended up back at the shelter. I live in an apartment, and the neighbors were complaining about the incessant barking. Burke's separation anxiety and anxiety in general was off the charts. Thanks to Randy's methods, Burke is much calmer and can stay at home happily by himself. I really liked that it didn't involve prong collars or anything harsh. 10/10!

    Photo of Maxx Amazing! Something so simple and so effective. Maxx responded wonderfully. It wasn't Maxx that needed training it was us. Orlando made it so easy for all of us. Highly recommended!! Your dog deserves this!

    Ryan gave us results with both of our dogs the very first day!! We were struggling with new people entering our home and not getting barked at or bombarded with jumping and aggression!He gave us skills that worked right out the gate! We also have been able to take them on walks without fear of barking at other dogs or the constant pulling!! The skills we have learned are invaluable and has made all of us much happier humans and pups!!

    Bark Busters and Johnny, our trainer is AMAZING! He takes time to listen to the client and time to get to know your pup. He was patient, caring and easy to learn from. My girl had some "issues' from previous owners (3) prior to me rescuing her. Johnny was excellent at evaluating our situation, and helping me to learn how to help my girl gain confidence, deal with some behavioral issues and relax in her new home with me. ALL of Johnny's instructions are clearly explained, and practiced while he is here. We never feel rushed, but rather that we are his only concern. Each visit is productive, and addresses behaviors as they arise. Once you have established your training needs, he is readily available, quick to respond to text and make appointments to work on specific things as time goes on. I couldn't be happier and I recommend Johnny 100%!!

    (Lengthy but TRUE!) Chris is amazing! I adopted my 5-year-old Pitbull in November 2024. He came with a troubled past—and the scars on his face told part of the story. Despite that, I could see he was a sweet dog who just needed some extra care and structure. I reached out to Bark Busters when I was at a breaking point. My dog had already attacked my boyfriend twice, and I was seriously considering returning him to the shelter. That’s when Chris stepped in and truly changed everything. The in-home training with Chris gave us the tools and techniques we needed to succeed—not just inside our home, but out in the real world too. With consistency and dedication, my dog has come such a long way. He now listens well, respects boundaries, and sees me as his leader. I really appreciate that Chris’s methods don’t rely on e-collars or any harsh tools. It’s all about communication and leadership, which has made a huge difference. Chris has also been incredibly supportive outside of our sessions—always just a text or call away when I need guidance. Thank you, Chris, for helping us turn things around. I truly couldn’t have done this without you!

    Photo of Daphne I trained with James to help with my fearful/anxious GSD rescue, Daphne, and she has made incredible progress! I really appreciated the personalized training recommendations and plans for practice at home and follow up by James. She now is okay with meeting new people in our home and has began to bond with friends who we have over more often!
