    Bark Busters has completely changed the way I view dog training. I’ve had the chance to observe their methods in action, and the results truly speak for themselves. What sets them apart is their focus on behavior-based training rather than relying solely on treats, clickers, or obedience drills. You start seeing improvements in your dog’s behavior almost immediately.

    The techniques are straightforward and easy for owners to learn and apply, which makes the entire process feel empowering—not overwhelming. It’s amazing to watch dogs become more confident and focused as they find purpose through this kind of mental engagement. They’re not just learning commands—they’re learning how to think and respond. I’d recommend Bark Busters to anyone looking for lasting, meaningful change with their dog!

    Kayla is awesome! I recently adopted an Iggy (Piper) who is 3-1/2 months young. She’s extremely energetic, not potty trained and bites everything and everyone due to teething but couldn’t be any cuter. I met with Kayla for several hours. She provided great information, suggestions, is patient and extremely diligent in checking in with me to see how things are going. I’m a work in progress (hard giving tough love by not running to get her every time she whines, but I’m getting better:). Additionally, Piper is getting better with going potty outdoors and when she tries biting, by redirecting her, she refocuses and stops biting.). I highly recommend Kayla for your training needs.

    Photo of Jack Josh was wonderful with us and Jack! I like that we are learning how to communicate with Jack. Josh really clamed our fears and anxiety which will help Jack.

    Photo of Rex Connie was absolutely amazing in training us to work with our new dog, Rex! The office was incredibly prompt and helpful as well! We adopted Rex, a three year old husky mix tripod in April and engaged the services of Connie and Bark Busters about two weeks into welcoming Rex home.

    Rex latched onto me immediately as his person and followed me around EVERYWHERE. While I loved the company, it was overwhelming and I could see that he was having anxiety when I even just leave him for a few minutes to go to the restroom. Enter, Connie!

    At our first visit, she gathered a lot of info about Rex and our experiences. She focused on the behaviors that we didn’t like and that were harmful or dangerous for Rex and others. He was a bit reactive to new people, especially men, and did appear to have great socialization with people and animals. He’s gotten so much better in just a few months and we saw change after the first visit. Connie was patient, honest, and funny. I think this review could be pages long, so I’ll summarize the benefits here:
    - easy to schedule and good availability. Flexible with appointment days and times.
    - immediate results after first appointment
    - consistent improvement over time with the homework given at each session
    - great follow-up notes from each session with resource and homework
    - easy communication with Connie via text with updates, questions, suggestions
    - love that Connie comes to our house to see Rex in his normal environment with hands on training practice each visit and reasonable homework to follow between visits.
    - Connie focuses on our needs and desires and the safety of Rex and those around him. She’s not going to tell you that letting him on the furniture or sleep in bed with you is bad if you are okay with that. She’s also realistic with what we can and can’t do to get the changes we want.
    - great resources provided like videos, handouts, articles, advice, etc.
    - Connie is SUPER responsive when I text with a question or update.
    - love that this is a lifetime service for Rex so if something changes we can reach out for help at any time.

    If you are willing to put in some effort (which was actually less daunting than I thought it would be), you will see results to help you and your dog be happier and safer. Can’t recommend enough!

    I had my first session with Sharon today and she is beyond phenomenal! I got a mini dachshund puppy, Nash, who is 11 weeks old and have struggled with housebreaking and separation anxiety. I was shocked at how well and fast my little pup responded so quickly to Sharon’s behavior and training. She teaches how to “speak dog” using certain movements and tones and it was remarkable how responsive Nash was right from the start. I finally feel motivated and optimistic that his training is off to such a great start! I couldn’t recommend Sharon enough to anyone seeking that extra help and guidance when it comes to their pup! 10 stars if I could give it!

    Bark Busters and Johnny, our trainer is AMAZING! He takes time to listen to the client and time to get to know your pup. He was patient, caring and easy to learn from. My girl had some "issues' from previous owners (3) prior to me rescuing her. Johnny was excellent at evaluating our situation, and helping me to learn how to help my girl gain confidence, deal with some behavioral issues and relax in her new home with me. ALL of Johnny's instructions are clearly explained, and practiced while he is here. We never feel rushed, but rather that we are his only concern. Each visit is productive, and addresses behaviors as they arise. Once you have established your training needs, he is readily available, quick to respond to text and make appointments to work on specific things as time goes on. I couldn't be happier and I recommend Johnny 100%!!
