    We struggled for several years with our 3 year old dog rescue dog. She had severe anxiety, barking, and unfocused energy. We had tried obedience training escalating to muzzles and shock collars but these did not work.. We learned about Bark Busters from a local advertisement and after some research found some positive reviews about this service. We reached out to our local Bark Busters for more information and were impressed with the initial conversations. The service came with a notable cost, but the results have been incredible.

    Ryanne sat down and really got to know us, our pets, the environment, the issues we were having and connected with us helping us communicate more effectively with our four-legged family members. . She was very knowledgeable about dog behaviors and explained everything to us very clearly about why our dog(s) were acting the way they were. She took a very organized and methodical approach to help train the humans and then focus on the dogs. Using the information and techniques she provided, we saw some significant immediate results even after the first day!

    Ryanne provided us a training schedule until the next session and got the next session scheduled right away. We really appreciate the personalized approach she provided, she is super friendly, knowledgeable, as well as approachable. The next session saw even more positive results and our dog’s behavior has really changed for the better from these training sessions, and our continued use of her techniques.

    We are very impressed with Ryanne, Omar, and the Bark Busters team and would hands-down recommend this service!

    I was a little skeptical that this would be worth it but Finn is truly a new dog. I hated walking him and even walking into my own home because he was so obnoxious, but he is enjoyable now to walk and come home to. Still working on his opportunist personality but he is much much better. I very happy with our results and strongly encourage others to call Bark Busters, you'll be glad you did.

    I recently had the pleasure of working with Jared from Bark Buster to help mitigate if not get rid of my dog's bad habits and I couldn't be more pleased with the outcome. Jared's expertise and patience were evident from the very first session. He took the time to understand my dog's personality and problems then tailored the training accordingly.

    Jared's methods were very effective, ensuring that my fluff ball felt comfortable and supported throughout the entire training process. The improvement in my dog's behavior has been remarkable. Commands that were once a struggle are now followed with ease, and our daily walks have become a joy rather than a challenge.

    I highly recommend Jared to anyone in need of professional dog training. His dedication, skill, and genuine love for animals make him an exceptional trainer. Thank you, Jared, for transforming our lives and helping my dog become the best version of himself!

    Photo of Coco Theresa is awesome! She has been helping to train us and two of our dogs. I love that she comes to our home. She helps break down the techniques in a simple and understandable way. Going through the training has been fun for us and our fur babies.

    She isn’t just there to deliver training. She is there to help our family of people and fur babies be successful and happy.

    Amanda was very attentive and thorough. I have two rescues dogs with aggression and hyperactivity issues.the initial intake was very thorough and she assessed all of the needs of the household. Quite a bit of initial tips and lessons were given to control my dogs hyperactivity issues. I can already see the results. I look forward to ongoing sessions and support. I highly recommend her.

    Photo of Billy Jared was an intregal part of helping my foster/rescue dog with separation anxiety.

    I knew I was unable to adopt Billy ( Golden Retriever) unless I was able to leave for work. I lived in an apartment and it made it very difficult to leave as he would bark nonstop at the door, scratch the door, etc due to the anxiety of me leaving. Jared helped share many tactics that made me confident enough to officially adopt Billy. I am able to leave Billy for a few hours a day now and am very thankful for the time Jared spent with us.

    Photo of Copper and Zeke Our dogs have both demonstrated anxious behaviors in their time with us. We thought we'd have to live with that as they are both rescues with unknown histories. Upon Lee's initial visit, he trained us to manage the excess jumping/climbing on us, stress barking and separation behaviors. were within our control. In less than 24 hours, our dogs are both visibly more relaxed, and we feel we are on the road to progress with their complex sibling relationship and individual behavior. So glad we took this step.

    I am still amazed that one lesson turned Rocket around so quickly. I love information and Ben shared meaningful, easy to understand "this is what is going on with your dog" feedback. Rocket responded immediately to "bah." We learned how to "speak" dog per se and now he is so much more relaxed at home. Since he is a rescue, we know very little about his life prior to joining ours in December 2023. What was important for me to understand (as his "person") related to what Rocket needs day-to-day: food, shelter/security, love/affection and protection. I did everything but the last one and that translated into Rocket feeling like he needed to "protect" us when people came over. Now that he knows, without question, that I/we are in charge, he can just relax.

    While we def plan on continuing working with Ben in the future (leash management) and continuing to work on his initial training, I could not be happier with how far Rocket's already come in a few short weeks.

    I highly recommend Ben and Bark Buster's. Worth ever penny.
