    Before bark busters, it was nerve racking taking our reactive dog on a simple walk, although she’s not finished training she has come such a long way in a short time and we will forever be thankful for the work Randy has done with us. He’s helped us get to the root of her problems and solve them in a way that helps her feel safe and keeps our mind at ease. He is also so patient with our puppy and gave us pointers on when to shut down bad behaviors, we are so thankful!

    We needed some dog training after we brought our first child home from the hospital. Before the training our dog was not listening well, and we were concerned for our baby's safety. We were nervous we were going to need to rehome our dog (which was a last choice for us). Once Noah came out and helped us, we were able to have our dog and baby on the couch together without worry. That was our main concern and it was addressed, and we couldn't be happier. Not only did our main concern get addressed, but our dog now has better door manners, doesn't bark out windows as much, and he is now working on leash walking. Noah had us do an exercise with a fake dog (our dog is dog aggressive), and we were blown away at the behavior of our dog since we have started the training. We never imagined the great progress he had made in such a short time. The service is well worth the price, and Noah is always available to help when we have questions. Be prepared to make an effort to train your dog, and you will be so happy with your results.

    I've had dogs my entire life and thought I was a great "pack leader" until I adopted Lupe and Rosa. I was ready to throw in the towel after 3 years of trying what I knew and what I could find online. Then I stumbled upon Pam Kars at Bark Busters. I was hesistant to sign up at first, but I needed to do something. My first session was 3 hours! Pam laid out everything we were going to work on and why, explaining how my dogs see me and their psychology. I was hoping for some instruction and some long hard practice with them afterward before I'd see anything noticeable. Boy was I wrong! Just that day alone was a significant transformation in my dogs and how they behaved. I could now walk them AND enjoy it!. Pam was there to check in and coach and support me every week and a follow up visit after 4 weeks was awesome. She coached me on something I wasn't quite doing correctly and what a difference that made. Pam is there to support me and answer questions and even come back for a visit to give hands on training. I am still on this journey, but the transformation has been nothing short of phenomenal. There's no need to go anywhere else for training and the money is well worth it, you even get lifetime support, even if you move!

    Photo of Caerus and Tito My dogs have been victims of the Pitbull Stigma for far too long. The odds have been stacked against them from day 1.Caerus was scheduled to be euthanized after 3 years on a chain, victimized by the dog catchers, and finally left behind he was labeled a bad dog, a vicious pit bull. Once we saved him, he came with much baggage; fear of men, insecurities, and the desire to escape when no one was home. Michelle helped us to understand Caerus' thought process and the canine mentality and break down the situation to that we could better understand the needs of our boy. She taught us the manipulative ways our dog tried to control us without us knowing. She helped us understand situations the way our dogs perceive them, not us, because often, we misinterpreted the message our dog was given. She gave us methods to help our dogs so that we could avoid a fight between the two of them and avoid aggression toward strangers. I am so grateful for this training it will change the PITBULL STIGMA and rewrite my dog's narrative. If dog mom/dad worry consumes your life, as it did me; then the first step is contacting Michelle. You can control your pups, and your peace of mind.

    Photo of Boomer, Benny & Bella We learned how to properly communicate with our dogs since they can't speak English. Our anxious & chaotic dog acted calm & still even with a stranger in the house.

    Photo of Axel & Bruno Robert was knowledgeable and patient. He understood our concerns and was able to make suggestions on how to improve behavior. My dogs responded to him immediately and he coached me and my daughter to deliver the commands in a confident way. Robert is amazing!

    Highly recommend training with Chris! He is very knowledgeable and was extremely patient with me and my adolescent dog, Frankie. I have learned so much in this training process and we've made a lot of progress. No more pulling when walking or barking when someone comes to the door. I also have two cats and Chris helped me integrate them into each other’s lives. If you're considering dog training, Bark Busters is the way to go!

    It all started when I noticed some food aggression from my Doberman. Since I also have a 4 year old this was a concern of mine. So I googled food aggression and barkbusters was the first one that popped up. They sent Noah to me and after two sessions he could tell a considerable difference in my pup. It was nice having an in home trainer to teach me how to train the dog. And the fact that it is good for the life of the dog sold me. Noah was very patient with me and was very professional. 5 stars!!!

    Sharon came to my home for Louie’s first dog training session and he literally fell in line with the training in the first 2 minutes! He did so well on this training, it brought me to tears watching it all unfold. I really had no idea how to communicate with my dog before this training session. It was nothing short of miraculous!! Sharon spent almost 4 hours with us.. training me on how to communicate with my sweet dog. I didn’t realize that Louie was always so “stressed” out and I truly didn’t realize he had the weight of the world on his shoulders.. he was trying to take care of me, my husband, the house.. he must have been SO tired!! I just thought he was a happy but “anxious” little poodle. A lot of people had been telling me that poodles are just like that and they have sensitive stomachs, hence runny poop, frantic barking, nervous in the car etc.. well, after his first lesson with Sharon he seemed so calm and better right away. After she left, he slept for a few hours and still was so calm.. I took him out for a walk and he was so different, he just seemed to enjoy himself more. The difference was he no longer had all the worries and anxiety!!!! His stomach has been fine, his poops are healthy and perfect! The money spent to have Sharon (aka) Bark Busters over to my house is SO worth it even if it was for that ONE visit it would have been worth it, but - astoundingly the fee I paid is good for a lifetime of training! I’m so impressed I cannot even convey my exact feelings about it!!! Sharon and Bark Busters is absolutely amazing and worth every penny!!!!! ML, Heather
