Johnny was great! He took the time to explain everything to us. He was very easy to understand and willing to answer any questions we had. He tailored the training session to our dog and his needs and made sure we were all comfortable. He was great with our dog, and we are already seeing improvements. We couldn’t be happier and would recommend him to anybody!

Scot is a miracle worker! My Plott Hound mix is terrified of going outside. Scot and I just spent about an hour outside with my fur baby! My dog was running around having a great time in our fenced in yard. I have not been able to get him to run around before. Scot has a way about him that dogs can really relate to. He always give’s advice that I can easily follow and advice that always works! Thank you so much Scot, you are the best!

Patrick was very patient and had a lot of useful information for us for our pup just only on day one! We can’t wait to see what the future holds with our training as we implement these daily activities into our routine.

Ben at Bark Busters is absolutely amazing and made our lives much less stressful for us and our dog Mika. We adopted a sweet lab mix who came with some quirks. She has a lot of energy and will play all day long if she could which would result in her barking incessantly at us until we would play fetch (even if we have already played for hours). Additionally, we had issues with her rushing the door while barking and jumping up on guests.
PermalinkLastly, Mika struggled greatly while walking on the leash. Although she is super friendly with dogs at daycare and other instances off the leash, if she saw or heard a dog within a 100 yards of us, she would pull, bark, lunge, and alligator roll on the end of the leash. Not only was this extremely embarrassing, but it is incredibly tiring to walk a dog who makes you feel like Steve Erwin capturing a wild alligator every time we see another dog.
We tried many training tactics including trying to distract her with her favorite human food and nothing was working. At this point, I found Bark Busters and I am so glad I did. Ben came to our home and spent 3 hours explaining how and why the methods taught at Bark Busters works along with training us how to communicate with Mika. Ben showed us a few simple commands, not 20 different commands to memorize and make sure you are doing right.
The results were immediate and lasting. Our first training session was three months ago and Mika is so much more relaxed and well behaved in the house. No more incessant barking to play and rushing the door to bark at and jump on guests. She is the same sweet Mika that loves to play and get love from everyone, but now she is more relaxed and waits for permission from us. Even skeptical family members were extremely impressed with the results of Mika's training.
A few weeks later, we had a second session with Ben to work on walking on the leash. Although Mika is not perfect on the leash quite yet, we have made so much improvement and we are still getting better! We are now at the point where Mika will make a lot of stressful noises and pull some while walking past another barking dog, but she is no longer alligator rolling and lunging like crazy while making scary barking noises. She also goes back to being relaxed so quickly instead of barking for ages after the other dog is gone. We are so proud of her continuing improvement on the leash.
Lastly, but most importantly, all of Ben's training methods deal with proper communication and not scaring or hurting dogs. No shock collars, or choke chains, just clear communication. Our only regret was not calling Bark Busters sooner, so if you are on the fence just do it. It is worth increasing the quality of life for you and your dog.
