    Photo of Bailey Rob is extremely calm and attentive to my needs with Bailey. All the exercises that he taught me worked immediately. Bailey was exhausted and her behavior was 100% different in a very positive way. I am pleased and happy with Rob.

    She is a cutie BUT sassy and smart. You did really well today anticipating her behavior and then following my instruction. Nicely done!

    Photo of Ava We first hired Scott around 2 months ago and the difference in our dog Ava has been night and day. Ava had been showing signs of aggression towards both dogs and people, Scott has since given us tools to manage both areas of aggression and given us tools to handle so many other scenarios as well. Ava was never particularly good on leash and now she can do 40 minute walks without leaving our side. Scott explains to you what your dog is likely feeling from their point of view and is able to advise dog owners on how best to approach situations without ever making the owners feel as though they had screwed up or were bad dog owners (this is not something that we can say about a good portion of trainers that we have talked to). Scott is very flexible, able to meet with people on the afternoons and weekends in their own home which is incredibly helpful as me and my fiancée are both working full time. I would and have recommended Scott to anyone who is wanting to train their dog. I and so thankful that we have Scott’s help while training Ava.

    Pam is amazing! She was very descriptive when instructing us how to help with our pets. She covered everything from food and treats to why they do certain things they do! We absolutely loved that we weren’t using any sort of training collar or treats to help redirect our dogs or correct them. She is an amazing human and super fun to talk to! This type of training worked great for what we were looking for and what worked best with us! She was amazing with my dogs as well! Mason absolutely loves her!

    Amanda is wonderful. We recently rescued a 10-month-old dog 5 week ago, we were struggle with walks, calling, and anxiety (pacing within the house). We had our first session yesterday, immediate results. Amanda taught us how to communicate with our dog, and it was an instant change. She sent us great documentation afterward for us to continue working with our dog. Our cat even noticed the change, stopped hiding from him and was able to play with her toys for the first time in 5 weeks. We are super grateful to Amanda, and I would highly recommend her if you a getting a new dog, recently got a new dog, and/or have had a dog for awhile and need assistance on training.

    Finally! Answers to our prayers! Our family has a 13yo pit mix rescue and a 1yo American Akita. The Akita has typical Akita traits and we knew with another 30lbs left to pack on, we needed to get ourselves in shape with his training. In the process, Bob focused mainly on our Akita (as he needed the training much more) but our pit mix followed right along without hesitation… with nearly 13yrs of the same habits, they ceased within an hour. ? Bob is amazing at what he does and truly worth every penny! In just 2 hours, we had more obedient and respectful fur babies! We were blown away with just the responsiveness of the first exercise and it just got better and better with each new exercise. Our jaws were on the floor and now I’m ready to brag even more about how well behaved, mannered, and attentive my Akita is! This is only from a 2hr training! I can’t wait to see the progress in a few short weeks and can’t wait to continue tomorrow- even my kids are in awe at the change and eager to help train! Akitas tend to have a bad reputation but like any dog, training is absolutely a must. I believe if owners have the right tools to train their pups, less would in the shelters. They need a calm and consistent leader and with Bob’s training techniques that is exactly who you will become. Bob breaks down the whys and how-tos of everything. His techniques are simple and effective- no need to complicate things. Thank you, Bob!! You have truly given us a gift!

    I didn’t know what to expect with Bark Busters home training all I knew was there was nowhere else to turn. Our house was chaos and my Morkie was out of control. Barking, excessive biting, showing his teeth and tearing up the house I couldn’t imagine how things would change. Michael the trainer spent three hours with Jack my dog, and myself going over methods to work on these behaviors. He was so patient, and professional going over everything we needed to work on. I couldn’t ask for a better trainer. After our session I felt hopeful that Jack and I would have a great relationship and that we would enjoy the life I had hoped we would have. I have been doing my homework and I see improvement already. I thank Michael so much and I am looking forward to the the continued relationship With Michael and the Bark Buster team.

    Photo of Stella Feedback + Coaching at the same time helped to feel confident doing exercises without Josh present. They 'WHY" behaviors are helpful to understand how to correct it.
