    Photo of Baxter Joshua is a very knowledgeable, patient person - his explanations were very thorough and useful. He explicitly crafted my homework assignment to reinforce my work w/ Baxter.

    Photo of Skids I am blown away!!! My puppy Skids, was reacting to everything. He was going off with the doorbell, FedEx, squirrels, even my in-laws. He would sit there and bark at them and they couldn’t even get in the house. It’s been a few days since my lesson, and I have never had a more peaceful house. I highly recommend! What really sold me as they come right to my house and that was my concern I didn’t want to send my. Thank you so much!

    Photo of Winston We are so very happy with our training with Ryanne! Our dog, Winston, is picking up the training techniques quickly and we are seeing changes in his behaviors immediately. The training is fun, and easy to build into our regular daily routines so consistency is a breeze. I didn't think teaching an old (8 years) dog would be possible, but it absolutely is! Thank you so much Bark Busters & Ryanne!! Our lives are changing so much, for the better!

    Photo of Reaper So my fiancé and I rescued a mutt from the shelter who was abandoned 3 times and was sitting in a shelter from February of this year until about May. We were sent photos of the little guy and my fiancés heart immediately melted and a week later he came home with us.

    What we didn't take into account was how much of a headache this guy was going to be when we got him, likely due to his trauma and whatever he experienced before us. The little guy, now called Reaper, was barking at every single dog, bird, cat, and any other animal, as well as lunging and pulling like the world was ending. We knew that there would be some adjustment period for Reaper to settle down and get used to us and while he did, he was still a huge headache. We then got him neutered him and hope he would calm down a little and it helped but not much.

    We got a little desperate and tried using YouTube to train him but it didn't workout like we hoped. Then we found BarkBusters, specifically Jared for the SMC area. Let me tell you, this little headache of a mutt is a completely different dog than when we first met him. Almost a complete 180.

    Reaper still barks and needs work but Jared started with fundamentals and how to "talk" to the dog in ways he understands so he can find his place and his purpose in the household. We've had about 4 sessions so far and each time builds upon the last and Reaper can now sit on command, stay, and knows his boundaries like we didn't think was possible.

    Now Reaper is a huge handful and there's still plenty of work to be done, but in comparison to what he was when we got him and what he is now, we can't recommend Jared enough.

    He's the real deal. He helps you understand your dog and come up with reasonings as to why your dog does what he does and helps your dog understand you!

    One of the best investments you can make if you have a handful of a mutt. Hands down.

    Photo of Winnie/ Whiskey The best 3-hour session of our lives! We learned so many things from Josh that we will easily be able to carry over, he was so informative and knowledgeable. 100% would recommend for any behavior or obedience training!

    Photo of Teddy & Bear The techniques used made a huge positive impact on both of our puppies' behaviors. They were both extremely responsive to all of our lessons. John definitely helped us speak dog!

    Photo of The training may feel odd at first, but is is so effective. My dog has separation anxiety and is reactive towards/distrusting of other dogs and people. After just one session Rookie was already a bit calmer, his demeanor has changed already. There’s a lot of consistent work for us to do, but for the first time since we got him, I finally have hope. And Sarah (the BB trainer in my area) is amazing, kind, and so easy to talk to. It’s worth the investment.

    Thank you Justine for you Google Review! Yes being able to communicate with your dog is odd at first!! Rookie is so good at learning and I’m excited to see how much he learns from you two as the training goes on. He is one lucky dog to be living with you both and I can see how much he improved that day. I can’t wait to see you all again 🐾

    I must admit, I was a bit nervous about the training. But my husband & I were so happy with the outcome. Ben was extremely knowledgeable and thorough with his explanations. I have a much better understanding of how my dogs communicate. The training is worth every penny.

    We were completely shocked(In an amazing way) at how our pups behaved after our first session with Kristyn. They haven't jumped on the furniture since. Our once chaoitic home is much more relaxed and calm after just one visit. We are practicing our lessons and they are responding very well. We are very much looking forward to continuing this journey with Kristyn and seeing where we can go. We would highly recommend Kristyn to anyone who may be considering this training. Thank you so much😊👍❤️
