Had a great time today with Theresa learning about the steps I need to implement in order to resolve my dog’s anxiety problems. I learned so much today about being the leader that my dog need.

We are so glad they sent Theresa to our house. She is very informative and Bark Buster Is lucky to have her she has redeemed our faith in the company because of a previous trainer. We really wanted to refund, but she has showed us that she can help us get control of Our Golden Doodle thanks so so much.

Theresa Nichols, with Bark Busters, is an amazing trainer! She has worked with both of our dogs and we saw immediate results. She really understands dogs!

She is very well prepared and professional. She gives great lessons. My dog was already taking to the lesson before she was done with it. Would definitely recommend.

We are so pleased with the results while working with Heather! She prepared for our visit, asked thoughtful questions, and after visit one, we had remarkable results! We learned how to be better parents, and how to best assist our pup. She demonstrated techniques and practiced them with us and she was extremely patient.
PermalinkShe was so kind to us and did not judge our puppy. She adapted things as needed to meet his needs.
She has come back a couple of times at our request because we want to make sure we're doing things right. We want to do our best job with our pup!
Her encouragement and support is so helpful! Our neighbors thought we had a new dog! That's how different his behavior was. He is responding well and it is all very positive. And I expect it will be long lasting. We could not be more pleased!

We learned a lot about dog's vs human communication plus easy methods to correct behavior + calm Rex down. Also learned how to set consistent boundaries. We feel hopeful the techniques will be successful!

Orlando helped me stop Louie from barking at animals on tv. Rushing the door and barking and jumping on guest when they came over. Also helped me with Louie staying next to me on walks instead of pulling ahead of me.

Cook is 5 months old and we have never had a big dog. Today we learned how to address and speak to our dog in a way he could understand. Immediately we noticed big change and he adapted to our ques and rules quickly. We feel confident in this method and believe we will all thrive with these skills.

Josh was very good at establishing what I needed to do. Now I just need to get in a routine, so my dog becomes a good dog.

Gusty has completely transformed both my life and my dog Benny's--after just two sessions.
PermalinkBenny is a one-year-old mixed-breed rescue who had experienced significant trauma before I adopted him. When we started working with Gusty, we were dealing with several behavioral challenges: barking and biting, leash reactivity, and difficulty adjusting to my two resident cats--whom Benny felt the need to "protect" me from. He was also very territorial on walks, often lunging and snapping at anyone with an unusual appearance--people in big jackets, those with a unique gait, or wearing medical masks. He even reacted to other dogs wearing sweaters. On top of that, he had a habit of scavenging and displayed food aggression.
Gusty not only helped me see that Benny is an incredibly intelligent dog, but also gave me the tools and structure to bring out the best in him. With just a few consistent rules, Benny has blossomed into a calm, focused, and eager-to-learn companion. Thanks to Gusty's guidance:
- Benny no longer barks at people passing our apartment.
- He's calm and responsive on leash--no more lunging.
- He sits at crosswalks, comes when called, and no longer demands attention by barking.
- I no longer need to rely on endless chew toys or treats to keep him occupied.
- He drops trash when asked and responds beautifully to direction.
- Most importantly, our bond has grown stronger than ever.
While he still occasionally reacts to the cats' presence, he is MUCH calmer, only barks and them once or twice and then immediately goes to lay down after I tell him to. The fact that he can disengage from something that once distracted him so totally that I was concerned about his safety and the cats is actually incredible.
With Gusty's encouragement, I'm now excited to take things further--we're starting agility training, and I'm working on getting Benny comfortable in busier environments with the goal of certifying him as an emotional support animal so he can eventually travel with me.
Thank you, Gusty and the Bark Busters team! Your dedication to educating dog owners is inspiring, and the results speak for themselves. This has been one of the best investments I've ever made.
