Had John come to the house today for the 3 hour training. Did not know what to expect as I'm not familiar with dog training programs. Well I'm extremely impressed not only by how simple it all went but by the literal difference in our 5 month old pup. I would highly recommend John and Bark Busters, especially John. He was like part of the family. It was very comfortable and easy going and the dog did amazing and continues to follow commands. Do not waste your money on other by the hour trainers who milk you. Request this guy today. Me and the wife are ecstatic moving forward with a well behaved puppy. 5 stars across the board! I also have read some negative reports on the Bark Busters reviews about coins in bag being thrown etc etc. John did not ever suggest it nor took any approach in that manner. I suggest you request John and have him out to your home. The voice tones work as well as if you do the homework provided it makes for an amazing relationship between you and your dog. Update….For those of you that I read use shock collars, I suggest you strap one around your neck and turn it up to see what it feels like. Its not a good experience. What John did when he was here was put me in a leadership position for my pup. And showed me techniques to better me and my pups situation. You cant read these reviews and decide without thinking one bad apple don't spoil a tree. There are trainers like him out there that really take the time to help. He was only supposed to do 3 hours and sat and worked with us for over 4. For this I am very grateful and you should definitely try this man for your dogs. With that being said I will post another review following what he has taught us and the progress and I hope you will all consider calling and using him. Thank you for your service as a United States Marine John and thank you for what you did for us and our little girl :)

Ben has been so helpful in training our dog. We have been doing virtual sessions and still making a ton of progress. We are still on our journey to having a happy and calm dog but I know through the help of Bark Buster’s we will get there!

Google Review: "Rachel and Betty Lou are absolutely amazing! They helped my boy who was aggressive towards other dogs out of fear become much more well mannered and confident. They were very patient in showing me and thoroughly explaining different exercises to help with recall, leash training, distance control, and “place”. I could already tell a difference after just one short lesson and would recommend them to anyone who’s pup may need a little extra help."

"Amazing results!! I can’t believe the transformation in my sweet boy, Wrangler! I have an Australian Shepherd who was very reactive, aggressive and really scared of people. Anthony and his team were able to train me to be the leader of the pack. I have tried boarding, shock collars and everything under the sun before Bark Busters, and all other methods seemed to just increase his aggressive tendencies. Turns out I needed the training! I am now able to introduce Wrangler to strangers, greatly reduce his reactivity and start to show the world the dog that I love so much. The best part is that Bark Busters is there for ongoing training and help whenever a problem arises. They even took him to Barkin Creak (wonderful groomer) to help transition to a new grooming tech! They go over and above! Worth every penny!" Josh

Bobby is an energetic 6 year old rough coat Jack Russell Terrier who is deeply loved. In his first year, I had hired 2 different dog trainers because Bobby was a lively, stubborn, head strong, know-it-all puppy. Absolutely adorable, but difficult to train. The last I wanted is to break his exuberant spirit and just went on with the training he received. As it turned out, Bobby thought he is the alpa in the house and wanted to run the show. Finally I googled and stumbled over "Bark Buster" which had excellent reviews. One week after contacting Bark Buster, Jerry arrived at our house for home training. The first session was long, thorough and I learned a lot! Bobby responded excellently to the new training methods which are applied in "dog language" and are absolutely non-violent. Three weeks later, we had the second session with outside walking training. Here too, Jerry took his time and explained thoroughly what to do walking Bobby outside. As it turned out, Bobby needed to know that he is protected by me and does not need to bark so ferociously outside thinking he had to protect himself. Again, Bobby responded excellently. Of course, the most work lays in the hand of the owner to continue showing the dog that the owner is "the alpha", in charge, and lets the dog know that he is protected. I will continue the training and hope the promise of life-time coverage will be kept by Bark Buster. I highly recommend Jerry. He is an excellent trainer for both, owner and dog.

I called Karen after adopting a young border collie mix that immediately began to show resource guarding and growled and barked at visitors and the neighborhood children. I called Bark Busters as I was very concerned and had read good reviews. I’ve had decades of dogs and dog training but I knew I needed serious help. Karen is fantastic! The training method is humane, smart and powerful. I was no longer a treat puppet for my dog but a pack leader. With just the first session there was a tremendous improvement. Several sessions later, I now have a sweet docile dog who looks to me for guidance and is calm and not stressed. She doesn’t need to challenge me and feels safe with my command. She lets the neighborhood kids pet her and enjoys it immensely. Karen is calm, direct but very considerate and truly the best I’ve worked with and and the method works.

My pit bull Sophie had some bad habits, mainly barking and separation anxiety. A friend recommended Bark Busters. After two lessons, her behavior is literally night and day. Stephanie taught us how to communicate better and show leadership so Sophie wouldn't try and take on the role of pack leader. She is much less stressed out. I can leave the house without her crying, and she doesn't bark at the door anymore. I'm staying on top of the training. Highly recommend!

Kevin and the Bark Busters team truly deserves a 5 star here -- Kevin has been supporting us with our border collie/pointer mix for the past year or so and we've made really great progress with his help! He's not only taught us more of the psychological aspect as dog owners, but brought a clear strategy to help our dog, Juniper, feel more at ease at home.
PermalinkIf you're looking for a trainer that is deeply empathetic, tailors their approach based on the behavior/personality of each dog, and is always around to support you no matter what, then Bark Busters is it. I will also say their customer support team is amazing and incredibly responsive.
Very happy we decided to go with Bark Busters!!
