    Photo of Antonio Barbara was a great help with training Antonio! She listened to all the things I felt my dog needed to work on and assured me that we could work through the issues. She explained all the techniques and tools very clearly, as well as walking me through how to use them efficiently. I can happily say after just a little training I'm already seeing improvement. Barbara is very knowledgeable and I would highly recommend her to anyone in need of dog training.

    Thank you for your kind words. Now you can see that communicating with our dogs in a way that they instinctively understand gets us the results we want without the need for treats or by being physical. Good for you. It was great meeting you and thank you for inviting me into your home to help you with your dog.

    I cannot recommend Justin enough for anyone struggling with their dog's behavior. He has been a game-changer for us and our dog Ziggy. We came to Justin when Ziggy was exhibiting leash reactivity, separation anxiety, and excessive barking, which was making it difficult for us to enjoy walks and even leaving the house without worrying about our neighbors complaining.

    From the very first consultation, Justin was incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and kind. He took the time to listen to our concerns and understand Ziggy's personality and tendencies. He explained the psychology behind dogs' behavior and how we could communicate more effectively with Ziggy to help him overcome his challenges.

    Justin also gave us easy-to-follow homework and guided walkthroughs that helped us build confidence and trust with Ziggy. We saw significant improvements in Ziggy's behavior after just one session. He is much more relaxed and comfortable being left alone and coming in contact with other dogs and people.

    Most importantly, Justin was always available to answer our questions and provide support whenever we needed it! He truly cares about his clients and their dogs, and it shows in his work.

    Overall, I cannot recommend Justin enough for anyone looking for a knowledgeable, patient, and effective behavioral dog trainer. Best decision we could’ve made to help our dog, and we are so grateful for his help!

    Photo of Tiger / Dali I went from fear of walking the dogs, to now it's my favorite action. The change was instant. Thank you!

    Really great session today working with Dali and Tiger. They both responded very well and Pure was very pleased. We addressed their leash manners, door manners and recall. I am looking forward to their progress.

    Trainer Note:
    Louie has been jumping all over Matt's friends and guests in the home. Also, Louie had started counter surfing and demanding for attention by barking. We addressed his leash manners and door manners. He responded great!

    Photo of Ficus From the beginning of the session, Ficus was rather wild, running, and whining. Towards the end he's calmed down considerably.

    My dog is a totally different dog!!!! He was firm with Bear and my dog responded right away. I am amazed at what bark busters did in one lesson, and this is my second time with a trainer! I took 7 seven lessons with a different Woodstock company, and again after ONE lesson with bark busters, my dog is listening!!!

    Sonja was very professional and our dogs responded well to her. My husband and I appreciated her input as well as her patience with both us and the dogs.

    Jenna Finch is a miracle worker!! My two Havanese dogs, ages 5 years and 7 years have had numerous classes and private trainers over their lives. Despite being affectionate and friendly each had developed behaviors that made them less than desirable neighbors in high rise buildings. No trainer was able to change those negative behavior. Rushing the front door, going into frenzies when guests arrived and being very demanding of attention from those guests were the most frustrating behaviors. In one visit, Jenna eliminated all of those actions and the new behavior has remained consistent with reinforcement homework by me. I discovered by accident that my older dog barked constantly when my husband and I are both gone from home. Jenna showed me how this was classic separation anxiety behavior. With the assistance of a nanny cam and Jenna's patient guidance and support, my boy has stayed quietly in his bed during our absences. I had to make sure the camera was actually working I was so astonished! All of these incredible results after only a week! Jenna is a pleasure to work with, explains everything then gives you very clear guidance in writing. She has been unfailingly available , including on nights and weekend. I couldn't be more delighted by the results of her training!!
