    Photo of Stitch Derek was amazing in helping us teach our Stitch to be comfortable with guests & helped teach us to minimize his barking with easy instruction! He also suggested we prepare our dog’s food vs dry dog food which has made 100% a difference with our little Stitch! Now he’s had zero skin issues, he’s happier, at a healthy weight, needing less vet visits, & welcomes guests with a sweet, friendly demeanor! Clean eating has been so rewarding for Stitch in multiple ways & we’ve saved so much money on dog food plus we have peace of mind he is eating good nutrients & zero by-products. Thank you so much, Derek for your support & help!

    Awesome first training session with Patrick at Bark Busters for my new, adult rescue pup who is a mixed breed, possibly shepherd, pit, and black mouth cur X. She has extreme separation anxiety. To the point of escaping basic enclosures, trying to break windows, tearing things up, and barking/ drooling constantly. She had to follow me around everywhere around the house when I was home, too. Today, we covered the basics and established that she is to get attention on my terms. I was leery at first thinking she would be afraid of me, but she actually is MORE excited when I call her now and the time together feels more rewarding for both of us. And she already respects my space indoors within 3 hours. I can walk outside a bit, but I haven’t gotten to the major steps yet of leaving her alone at home / addressing behavior at work or on car trips. I really believe I will resolve these issues after meeting my Bark Busters trainer again. She also appeared to be afraid of the crate at first but turns out it’s just anticipation of being alone and scared in it. Today, she actually went into her crate on her own to eat. She seems much more in tune with me and looks to me for direction now- which is the ultimate goal for everything. I’ve been given much valuable homework and will be getting as many visits as I need. But seems I may not need as many as originally thought, and she will be a well trained dog in no time! No need for treats, physical touch, a bunch of different words, or coercion. Just simple dog language. Bark Busters truly teaches this concept in an easy to understand manner and results are worth it! I’m so excited to start this new way of life with my new dog. This will be my first professionally trained dog, and I couldn’t feel more confident and proud to own a dog!

    Deb is fabulous and we learned so much from her just first time meeting with her. We are excited to see the progress we see from our babies

    Deb was very thorough in her explanation and instruction. We, as well as friends and family, noticed changes immediately. Within two weeks the dogs started correcting their own behaviors, including stopping themselves after barking once or twice. It was an added bonus that harnesses were included for the training since the dogs have taken well to training in them. Highly recommend bark busters- it’s such a simple and easy to understand method that is definitely worth the time and money!

    He was amazing. Knowledgeable, patient and had a system in place that really works. We are so surprised that it is working so well and also the tools he gave us made an incredible difference. We are in awe. We loved Luis. He helped us to change our behavior as well as the dog. I would greatly recommend him and his services.

    Photo of Karl Amber was amazing! In just one session she taught us how to communicate with our 6 year old Weimaraner, Karl, and give him the direction he was craving. We know we will need to continue to reinforce but after that one session Karl’s barking, pulling and reactivity has completely changed because we now have the tools to guide him. After dealing with mind-numbing barking for months, our new home is now peaceful and calm!

    Photo of Willie Keith showed us great training techniques to use with Willie. Initially Willie was showing fear aggression with barking, growling& lunging while on leash. Within the 2+ hours he was off leash , fully relaxed ,basically ignoring Keith. I am definitely pleased and will continue to work on the techniques he showed us. I highly recommend Keith and Bark Busters.

    Justine is amazing. She helped step in when the vet told us our dog was too aggressive to train and should be put down. She spent plenty of time explaining how she could help and how to implement the training with our dogs. She is so patient, calm and kind. Our “problem child” rescue dog is 100% deaf and slowly losing his eye sight - with the right corrections and commands taught by Justine— he is doing so well and truly showing how sweet of a boy he is.
    Justine comes prepared, gives clear instructions and excellent recommendations on things we can implement/change to set our sweet boy up for success. Thank you, Justine!!

    Photo of Milo josh's training is very detailed and effective. He taught us how to set boundaries with our dog mimicking the natural ways dogs communicate.

    Photo of A fabulous first session with Patrick of Bark Busters. I have new dogs in training…as if by magic my doggos listened and responded. It really isn’t magic, it is hard work, consistency and layers. Patrick had me jump in to the deep part of the training pool immediately and begin our training. Wow! I LOVE the process!!!! Thank you Patrick for giving me the tools to get my sweet “soon to be better “ obedient dogs back!
