    The knowledge and expertise Bark Busters Boston North offers is unmatched and I couldn’t recommend their services more. Not only has Kayla been patient with my French Bulldog Enzo, but with me as well - as I learn how to incorporate training into our day-to-day lives. She’s always there to answer questions as they come up, constantly thinking of solutions when Enzo throws us another obstacle, and continues to elevate our experience with her ongoing support.

    Investing in this training is investing in the long-term happiness of my pup - which is all I’ve ever wanted! I’d do it again in a heartbeat and look forward to continuing to grow with the help from these amazing people.

    I’m delighted with the help Kayla has given me with my dogs. Their progress is better than I’d ever imagined. It’s great to know that when we need her help in the future we can always count on Kayla

    Kayla is amazing at what she does! We have tried different training methods with our dog before but they didn’t work. After our first session with Kayla we already saw a huge improvement in Kodah’s behavior & felt so relieved knowing we finally found the right trainer for us! Kodah is so much happier & relaxed & so are we! We have learned so much & can’t thank Kayla enough for everything she has done!!

    Kayla was fantastic! Once she explained everything it made so much sense, and I'm already seeing improvement! I'm looking forward to working on what she showed me, and for our next session to add some new skills!

    Where do I begin?! Just 4 weeks ago my Husband and I thought we would have to put our Furbaby Son down. Due to an unfortunate situation that caused him to act inappropriately out of fear. Instantly when we met Kayla, I knew she was THE ONE for our situation. She instantly made it feel that everything was going to be alright. Just days before we were sobbing thinking there would be no other choice than having to put our beloved dog down. By the end of our first meeting with Kayla, we noticed a huge difference in our Dogs demeanor. After just four weeks he's a completely different dog. He's 80% less anxious. He listens to us. He looks up to us as his leaders already. For once, I see a light at the end of a long winding tunnel. For once we see our lives being less isolated. Being able to have friends/family over and not having them scared of a reactive dog. He now just lays on the ground while we socialize with our favorite humans. Thank you Kayla and Randy! I can't wait to see our Zion grow into the dog he was always meant to be. You literally saved his life.

    Trainer Note:
    Really great session with Shaggy today! We worked on his fearful behavior around new people. We also worked on his barking, jumping, and recall. He responded very well, and it was great to see his positive change during our session!

    Karen is absolutely amazing and so personable. Cedar is almost 4 months old and was chewing on hands and her leash, barking, and just generally thinking she was in charge. Karen walked in and within 5 minutes, she had Cedar calmly sitting beside her. I learned more in 15 minutes with Karen than I did in the months I spent researching on how to train a puppy and prevent/correct bad habits. I can’t recommend Karen enough and I am looking forward to the next training session with her.

    Cedar is a typical rambunctious puppy and responded keenly. Thank you for letting me be part of yours and Cedar's training!

    We had a wonderfully great experience with Mark at Bark Busters Home Dog Training Northern Virginia. It was absolutely surprising and shocking how effective Mark's techniques worked with our two pups. I did not expect these two cuties to respond so well and immediately to the guidance and leadership Mark showed us. Mark thoroughly covered the psychology of how dogs perceive their world and the dynamics of how they interact and respond. With the tools and techniques Mark gave us, our pups began obeying our space restriction the first day (not rushing the front door when the bell rings, allowing us to pass through doorways first, and stop jumping up on us or visitors when not wanted). We still have some work to do on going up and down stairs and some house breaking, but we're confident now that our pups will succeed at those in short order.
    Mark was attentive to our dog's reaction to the training and adjusted to their personalilites as needed. He answered all our questions and provided fantastic advice and guidance on working with these pups going forward. Best of all, Mark is available to us at anytime to return for adjustments and further training as needed, should issues arise in the coming years.
    We are so pleased that we chose Bark Busters Home Training Northern Virginia for our pup's traning because ultimately it's all about making and keeeping these cuties calm and happy in the "Green Zone."
    Both of our dogs are rescue dogs from two separate rescue situations. One from Mississippi and one from Texas. They are both very young, one about 6 months old and the other about 4 months old.
