We didn't have high expectations for our first appointment because Taylor is like no other dog we've ever had.
PermalinkShe was mouthing me constantly and chewed on everything including the couch several times.
She barks out of fear at the slightest and silliest sounds like the neighbors talking in their own backyard, when the neighbor's pool sweep was running, and when any of our three neighbors rolled their garbage cans in/out. She is very protective of her home and her peeps.
Sarah was very thorough during the initial orientation. You could tell it was very well thought out and planned. She let us know exactly what to expect.
After the first visit with Sarah, we saw a huge improvement in all these areas by using her method to correct and redirect our dog.
We also had issues with leash pulling and Sarah worked with us on that. This is an area that we have to practice regularly with Taylor. When we do, you see improvement immediately. We just have to stay on top of it.
My husband and I are very grateful to know that we have Sarah on our team if we have any other issues or questions.

Willy is an (almost) 5 year old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel who did not respect me as his mom/leader and everything was always on his terms. He dictated where we went on walks and when we would turn back home. He would not come back in the house from the yard without getting a treat. He also has crazy barking episodes in the yard. He would not let me put his leash on without a game of chase. He would get into my underwear (left on the bathroom floor) and would not give it up without getting aggressive/defensive.
PermalinkWilly is shy with strangers but he welcomed Kayla into our home with no problem. Kayla showed me how to address all of his issues and during our session we already saw great improvement and Willy's newfound respect for me. She was very detailed and honest about my expectations. She also provided good information on his diet.
The night after our session, I told Willy to "come" so that I could put his leash on and he came immediately and let me leash him up without his little games for the first time ever. He also started coming back inside from the yard without a treat for the first time immediately after our session. He has learned to "leave it" when I drop my underwear on the floor. He's a smart boy and I'm so glad Kayla has helped me show him I am the leader to improve our relationship and keep him more safe.

We had our first session with Ryanne, in our home for our 3 dogs with Bark Busters Dog Training. Our dogs have been barking uncontrollably out of the window at our neighbors, counter surfing, getting into fights with each other, and more! After the first session, we are reclaiming the windows and the kitchen. They are learning to respect our space. We still have work to do to become the leaders in the home that we need to be, but we are off to a great start!

Today's session was incredibly helpful! We've already seen notable improvement in Harley's behavior. Josh was amazing with her and gave us lots of tips/ homework before our next session.

Damon is absolutely the best!!! He is the most patient and kind trainer. I was blown away by his knowledge of dog behavior and just watching how both of my girls responded to him. I felt completely at ease asking any questions that came up and trying all training techniques with him present. I have a 7 year old female mixed breed and just rescued a 2 year old chihuahua. The 7 year old has had some trouble adjusting to not being the only dog in the house. She is a bit jealous and the new rescue really hasn’t had any training. She was a barker, was partially potty trained and has really severe separation anxiety. I turned to Damon because I clearly needed help. It was amazing to see how both of my dogs responded to me without treats or punishment on the very first day of training. We are working on training daily and being consistent and it has made all the difference. The 2 yr old has not had a single accident in the house since our initial training session and she has gone to doggy daycare successfully! We are still working on barking, but she is MUCH better. Peace has returned to our house and it is great!! I couldn’t be more thankful and do not regret my choice at all!!

In just three hours, we saw a huge improvement in our dog. Prior to this training we were convinced that it would take months of training before we would see a difference. Very impressed with Bark Busters. We will definitely be recommending them to anyone asking.

Absolutely the BEST money I ever spent!!! I was at my wit's end. I got my dog during covid so she never experienced people coming in my house. Once people started coming over again, she would bark and bark. She followed anyone who came over around and barked at them. She is a Shepard mix so it was very scary for my guests. She would never calm down. It got to a point where I just did not have anyone over. She also barked at other dogs on our walks. It was all very stressful and not enjoyable. After ONE VISIT with JD, she was a changed dog!!! Unbelievable. JD stayed for 3 hours and listened and learned all about my dog's behavior issues and of course experienced her barking when he arrived. He really took the time to understand her (and my) anxiety!! He taught me all about my dog's anxiety and how to help her relax. I started inviting people over right away, just to test it out. Everyone was totally amazed! As am I. Not only can I invite people over now, without barking, she actually wags her tail and says hi to my guests! If I had not experienced this miraculous transformation, I would not believe it. JD is the best. Oh, plus, we can go for walks without pulling or barking at other dogs. I would totally recommend JD to anyone having these issues. I am so happy. One last thing: these new behaviors started immediately!!! Again, best money I ever spent!
