    Vito Margaritondo was very encouraging with the techniques. There was improvement after the first visit. I was impressed.

    The training was easy to understand and informative but was very detailed. We saw quick results. We had a very pleasant experience. Karen did a great job! Thank you!

    Maril was very detailed and took the time to answer ALL our questions. The dogs seemed to respond immediately and continue to improve daily. I love the way Maril has taught us to handle the dogs while training, but still show them love. We have learned so much in such a short time it's amazing and always interesting. I'm constantly telling my co-workers to contact Bark Busters. Maril is extremely knowledgeable and I am always in awe of the way she handles the dogs and how well they respond when she teaches us the same techniques.
    An additional note:
    We have 3 dogs all under the age of 2 years "' and this is the first time I've ever owned a pet. To say our house was busy, chaotic, noisy, stressful, etc. is an understatement. Some days I didn't want to come home because I knew that I would be facing. We even discussed giving away one of our dogs because we were just at the end of our rope and that's when we decided to call Bark Busters. We knew we could never really give up one of our babies. Maril has made such a difference in how we handle our dogs and everyone in the house can feel the calm returning to our home. I would recommend Maril to anyone who asked!

    Ken used analogies, experiences and examples to help us understand. He was wonderfully patient with our questions and answered them all. We were so encouraged with the first day results and the improvements keep coming. We love the common sense approach. The hardest part is training ourselves, adjusting our thinking and being consistent. We are recommending Bark Busters to our friends as we'er seeing hope we didn't think existed. This is a method we can do and the dogs are improving so much. Our vet recommended Bark Busters to us-actually everyone in the clinic recommended and endorsed Bark Busters.

    Very good explanations on "why" we do things. Cheryl showed us respect and did not make us feel like "bad dog owners"

    Trainer Note:
    These dog have made fantastic progress. They were aggressive out on walk with other dogs. The last visit we had, they were calmly sitting and walking by the other dog with no attention given to him. Kudos to Kate and Scott for following though with the training and making this possible.

    Karen was great! Her training ME was the strongest part and all three dogs were better in the two hours she was here. She answered my questions and never made me fee stupid or dumb. I enjoyed the session and this will become part of out life!

    Trainer Note:
    This client had her hands full! Her two resident dogs were running the show and her new puppy was adding to the craziness in her home! After she stepped up to the plate and took charge of her pack and her den, the entire atmosphere of her home changed ... for the better! Great job!

    Bennett seemed like a new dog after the first training session. I don't need treats to "bribe" my dog into behaving. I wish I had invested in this training long ago. Instead of spending hundreds of dollars to "fix" my dog's anxiety and unwanted behaviors, I should have called Bark Busters from the start.
