    Photo of Dieogi I highly recommend Sharon Kondash & Bark Busters to train your dog! She came to my home and was able to teach my dog not to bark at the door & window. She taught us real dog psychology. My dog Dieogi is a 72 lb American Pitbull Terrier. We adopted Dieogi from the SPCA and it was love at first hug! We got her home and that loving baby need some behavior modification as she became fearful and protective. Most people and even another trainer was afraid to get near her at my front door. But Sharon knew how to disarm her. I was amazed! They got along great!

    Sharon has been with Dieogi, my husband Bob and myself 3 times now. Dieogi had a little set back due to fear so I called Sharon back thinking "Sure the website says she is willing to come back". I expected her to say, something like I've already been there or I'm too busy.
    With much delight Sharon was more then happy to come and help Dieogi again & again as things changed and we needed more help.
    Sharon will do whatever she needs to to get the results we need. Some say the cost is too much. Please know we are a poor family. We used Income tax to pay for their awesome lifetime guarantee of service. They really stand by it! We knew training Dieogi was important enough to hire her. Do it and you will have no regrets!

    Photo of Willie We were at at wits end with Willie's behavior. Within the 3 hours session, all of his behaviors were corrected. I was amazed. The trainers taught us how to communicate to our dog in a way he would understand. Joshua and Marc were patient, clear and intelligent in training us how to interact with our dog when he misbehaves. 110 % recommend

    Really enjoyed working with Kaitlyn and her pup named Willie. Willie was a rescue and was really stressed about and needed some leadership within his life. As we started working with Kaitlyn and helped her to establish leadership her pup was like a different dog.

    Photo of Honey We first called Bark Busters when we got a puppy 3 years ago, mike taught us all of the basic behavioral things and was a huge help!! Honey immediately became a better pup thanks to Mike. 3 years down the road, Honey began barking more and more so we asked mike to come back and help us out again. He was more than willing to help, and within one session our dog showed a huge change! We highly recommend Mike, he is the best!

    Today went really well we were working with Emmilee and she is a timid Maltese. She responded very well to our training techniques and is progressing well. I am following up in two weeks with them and really looking forward to seeing her progress.

    Our experience with Kendra and the methods she taught us has been AMAZING. Previously we had been attempting to get our dogs to do the right thing and listen to us by using treats or using commands. Often we ended up yelling commands due to frustration. Our dog would be jumping or barking and we were yelling SIT! SIT! NO BARK! NO BARK! It was like we were arguing with our dogs or barking with them. We were very discouraged. Kendra taught us the difference between educating our dog and training our dog. When we learned how to educate our dog using the "dog" methods it worked and we saw a difference immediately. MINDS BLOWN! With us being consistent with the education our dog has learned that he is not too go to the door when we have company. WE answer the door! He has learned not to be barking at people just walking by minding their own business. He walks without zig-zagging and pulling us along like he was walking us, which he was!! He has basically learned what is okay to do and what isn't okay to do and we don't have to "bark" commands at him. If he makes a mistake we can use our "dog speak" and get his focus and guide him to the right behavior. It's definitely different then our past treat training and command based training. We love it! And, our dog is so much more relaxed! We also like the lifetime support as we can reach out to Kendra at any time and she responds quickly and coaches us on what to do. Kendra is very passionate about what she does and she is fun to work with. It was worth the investment to bring peace, calm and more fun to our home. 10/10 recommend!

    Photo of Ruby and Rusty We adopted litter mates that were approximately a year old that had little or no human socialization. They also may have been abused as well. Lots of barking at humans and could not put leashes on them, let alone, walk them. After a few sessions with Nick, they are different dogs. Though Rusty still needs lots of work, Ruby can now be walked and she listens to me. Well, most of the time! Thank you, Nick, for helping us!
