I didn’t have any confidence in myself as far as training Trooper goes. However, after the 2nd session I decided to buckle down and do our homework.
What a wonderful dog I have. It was money well spent not only for me but for Trooper! Nicholas Pagano was very patient and encouraging with us (mostly me)!
Trooper is my 5-year-old rescue Boston Terrier. My fourth! I love the breed. But since Trooper came to me from Texas I knew nothing about him, not even his birthday. Nicholas suggested that trooper may even been younger than 5.
Trooper’s issues were: PULLING, barking and rushing to the door, at people walking back & forth, squirrels, rabbits, birds, chipmunks, fear of the car, aggression towards the vacuum and grabbing tool.
Pulling was resolved with the proper harness (who knew?), now it is a pleasure to walk him. I have learned that terriers want to attack ALL little things so I just learn to be ready and offer a correction when I see a rodent presenting a problem. Of all my BTs, I never had one that actually treed squirrels!
Nicholas told me 'your dog is bored'!!! Who knew again! So puzzles were suggested. I love to watch him solve them. I really did learn a lot about having a dog! Even though I had 3 previous Bostons, this one is by far the most entertaining...he makes me laugh :)
We are still working on the fear of the car. I think the long ride from Texas to NJ may have traumatized him a bit. Also I have the tools to address the vacuum problem, so that’s a work in progress.
Trooper and I are buddies now…best friends and I am so grateful to Nicholas and Bark Busters for being there for us.

Trainer Note:
Crumpet was starting to exhibit the early signs of separation anxiety. Today we addressed this issue and his overall behavior. He responded very well, and we also worked on his leash manners. I am really looking forward to his progress over the coming weeks.

I was surprised to see Chase's reaction to me claiming my space and the door control was also great! I'm hopeful for his progression.

Trainer Note:
Chase is a very active working dog! Today we discovered he comes from a long line of working dogs. Now that we are working on giving him a job and establishing some rules and boundaries. He will really start to improve now that he has a job to do.

Erin, was fantastic. Full of knowledge. And the tools that she gave us are just amazing how well they work. The difference of our German shepherd is like night and day. We are very, very grateful for Bark Busters.

Well explained & demonstrated. Lots of information given and my dog seemed to absorb it better than I did.

Robert came for one visit and already my rambunctious puppy has started to not run for the door and has learned to stay. We are learning how to better care for our 4-month-old puppy's needs while providing consistent effective techniques to train him.

Rambunctious, for sure, and very smart. But you did well. He's only a baby so we have a long way to go but it was a good start!

Kevin is kind and educated. He gave us a better understanding of the way dogs communicate. We found the process understandable and easy to implement. We were given physical and mental tools to work with. Thank you, the Hick family

Absolutely amazing! I have 2 Jack Russell Terriers and a Black Lab that (between them) have ALL of the bad behavior issues. Deb was able to bring peace to my home and address all of their behaviors in one session. I definitely feel very confident that I have the proper training tools now to keep my dogs under control and train them the right way. I honestly cannot thank her enough! I will most definitely be recommending her to others. I wish I knew about her sooner!
