    Navigating the challenges of owning an 8-week-old Golden Retriever would have been incredibly overwhelming without Kevin's help! As first-time puppy owners, my wife and I were unsure how to handle all the different phases. Kevin provided invaluable guidance tailored to our specific situation that books and TV shows couldn't match. We are so grateful for his support!

    Photo of Tally Theresa is the best. Our golden retriever Tallahassee “Tally” needed help with puppy biting, door greeting strangers, leash work and recall. Theresa has a way that is down to the science of speaking a language that dogs understand. No treats, no shock collars - and wow we have a manageable dog.

    Photo of Pandora Saw huge differences in first lesson taught. We as humans learned to speak our doggie's language.

    Jef has been a blessing to us with our four month old Maltipoo. I researched many trainers and I am so glad we chose to go with Bark Busters and Jef. He taught us about communication, leadership, specific training techniques, he helps us anticipate our puppy’s behavior changes as he grows and gives us homework and a training schedule that is tailored to our puppy and family needs. After our first session with him the overall feeling in our house was SO much less stressful. Jef is available when we have a concern or if we need help. He is prompt, thorough and very kind. We love Jef!

    Photo of Jake I was very surprised with how fast Jake responded to Lee’s training. Hasn’t even been 24 hours and he has stopped, jumping completely on me. I was having issues with him to get off the couch to go outside for the last time to pee. He would lay on the couch and not respond to anything I said, and basically you would have to drag him off the couch to get them up. Now, I just use the techniques that Lee taught me and Jake will get up right off the couch immediately. I know there’s work to do but I am ready to do it with Lee’s help because I can already see Jake will be a much better behaved dog.

    Do not hesitate to call Barbara! This is my second dog to work with Bark Busters. Barbara worked wonders with our first dog, a Labrador Retriever that we were struggling with a drastic change in his behavior that we had noted with a new baby in the house and a divorce in progress. Her work with myself and my older children helped immensely and I had not doubts about calling her on again recently with our newest dog, 1 year old lab mix.

    Our newest addition, Penelope, reached the zenith of her bad puppy behaviors (jumping on guests, pulling on the leash, ignoring us when called etc.) during this past Christmas season and in desperation I reached out to Barbara to give us a hand. The change in our household with Penelope’s new manners was so quick and dramatic we had friends and family marveling over the difference in such a short time. Of course, working with a dog is always ongoing but Barbara provided the tools, encouragement and instruction we needed to get on the right course. She truly listens to your situation and the dog’s unique quirks and provides customized training plans to work on specific behaviors. She is very responsive via text for a quick question – something we really appreciate. I highly recommend her services to anyone struggling with troubling canine behaviors!

    If you’re reading this as a frustrated dog parent, look no further for any other trainer/ company. Absolutely go with Bark Busters!

    Amanda, our trainer is a genius. She showed me this video of a mama dog correcting her pups
    and this is what the leader of the pack (me) does. I’m basically mama grunting at them when they do anything out of line or any thing I want to correct. Amanda is super cool and personable and can show you so many ways to get your dogs in line. There’s obviously more to it than just grunting so make you’re appointment with this company!!! My dogs are happier dogs! My dogs don’t have anxiety and IIIIIIIIII don’t have anxiety. I can enjoy my dogs now!

    It’s crazy. It’s totally working! No treat or punish training.

    My Cooper is not fear barking and lunging at people and my other dog Hunny isn’t separation anxiety barking outside when she can’t see me.

    It took one water spray and a grunt before she came inside; I closed the door again and she quietly, patiently waited to come in until I let her.

    Some dogs are a little more stubborn (cooper has been surprisingly) but it’s working. Hunny fell in line immediately.

    My dogs aren’t CRAZY! Amanda and I are working on leash training in 2 weeks. Potty/ crate training rn. No more pee pads.

    Photo of Crowley Damon was absolutely amazing! My husband and I feel so much more prepared to work with our beloved pup, Crowley, after our first session! We have tried regular trainers on multiple occasions for Crowley's behavioral issues but were at a loss. As a behaviorist, Damon gave us fundamentals to work on based on how a dog thinks rather than focusing on tasks or commands, which has already been an enormous game changer for us as dog owners. We look forward to having a steady support system for Crowley as we continue to learn how to provide a healthier learning and home environment for him!

    It was joy to start working with this family and their sweet boy, Crowley. I'm looking forward to seeing their progress and helping along the way!
