After researching training options for my new puppy I’m happy that I chose Bark Busters and Ryan. He came to my home and taught me how to communicate with my dog in a way that he understands, I saw results immediately and was amazed at how quickly Keko responded when I changed my approach with him. Ryan has helped me learn how to adjust my behavior in a way that my puppy understands and responds to. Our second session was a good reminder and reinforcement of the tools and lessons that Ryan teaches. Keko has gone from running from me to coming to me on command, he behaves better on our walks and with other family members, It’s encouraging to know that I can continue to work with Ryan as needed. It’s been a pleasure working with him and the amount of knowledge he shares is very useful and insightful. Highly recommend!!

Our dogs were uncontrollable when it come to barking when people are at our door. They are completely different dogs since Orlando has been here. Highly recommended.

Basahhhh! We now speak dog! Thanks so much to Scott for helping us with Penny’s issues. In just a short amount of time we became head of the house instead of her. We highly recommend Scott and his methods of training!

Bark Busters has completely changed both my life and my dog’s! I was close to re-homing my third dog because of his behavior—he was resource guarding and attacking the other dogs when I was around.
PermalinkAfter starting training with Karen and learning the Bark Busters methods, everything turned around. He is now the best-behaved of all my dogs, and our relationship has never been stronger.
I’m so grateful for this program
and highly recommend it to anyone struggling with their dog’s behavior or just want to teach your dog important training! Comes with all the tools and information needed and easy to implement into my day to day.

Baahhh! Scott taught us to speak “dog”. We were amazed at how fast she learned that she was no longer in charge of the house. We were so impressed with Scott and how patient he was with us. Highly recommend!

The session today was extremly helpful and just as much infomative. In this session the results were amazing. The info given will also help us keep up the work after this. I would recommend this service to all.

Orlando showed me the best corrections with great results. Love introducing the neighbors in training!

Working with Bark Busters has been an absolutely top-notch experience from start to finish. Scheduling was easy and they took the time to truly understand our needs before we even began. When James arrived for our first session, he came fully prepared and immediately demonstrated a clear understanding of the behaviors we wanted to improve. The trainer's (James and Michelle) are also the owners of the company and it shows!
PermalinkWithin the first 30 minutes, James gave us practical tools to address barking and over-excitement when visitors come over. Both of our dogs needed different types of support, and he was able to tailor the training in a way that never felt overwhelming. We noticed improvements after every single session.
Our dog Biscuit, who used to bark excessively and pull whenever we passed people or other dogs, can now walk calmly past them without reacting. This alone has made our daily walks so much easier and so much more enjoyable.
Hands down, this has been the best investment we’ve made for our dogs. We can’t say enough good things about James and Michelle and have already recommended Bark Busters to several friends. Highly, highly recommend!

I highly recommend Jared! I've been working with him for about two months now, I think we've had four or five sessions, and my dog has made huge improvements.
PermalinkOne of my neighbors even said 'wow, it's like he's a different dog!', and I was able to host a small party at home without having to worry about him bulldozing everyone when they walked in the door.
I have a 75lb, three-year old dog, and the specific issues we were looking for help with were:
- pulling on leash
- jumping on people to say 'hi'
- barking at people, dogs, cats when they walk by the window
On the first visit, Jared came to my house to get a better understanding of my dog's problem behaviors, and was able to teach me some techniques to practice for homework.
In the next visit, he was able to see what kind of progress we'd made, and point out how I could improve, as well as teach my parents and teenager how to communicate with the dog. He is very honest about what he thinks might be too much if the dog isn't ready, and what we need to practice. I really appreciate how he tailored his instructions for different people so they each felt confident about what to do when they are handling the dog.
Jared crafts his training program to meet individual's needs. For example, if you want to take your dog to a park, or outdoor restaurant, he'll go there with you and he show you techniques that work for that setting.
He doesn't use choke chains, e-collars, or any other negative/violent reinforcement tools to 'break' a dog into submission. He also doesn't rely on over-dispensing treats (I was doing that before) to coax a dog into behavior.
In just the two months we've been working with Jared, I sense that my dog is more relaxed, because I am more relaxed and confident!
