    Photo of Mercury We got many good suggestions and received helpful information on how to feed and train our dog. We will try those suggestions and hopefully Mercury can get better and better.

    Photo of Pluto Josh was very clear and straightforward from the getgo. He mad the instructions easy to understand. It was a great delight to see our dog respond to the technique he was showing us.

    Paula has been an excellent, and very knowledgeable dog trainer. We started off with some Zoom meetings and have now moved to meetings at a dog park. I'm a first time dog owner and it hasn't been easy get all of my family on board with accepting our puppy, Taco. Paula has been wonderful in reinforcing and enhancing the Bark Buster training material. Specifically, the 1 on 1 training for programming/conditioning exercises have worked very well. Additionally, she is very understanding, patient, and a good listener in helping me overcome my challenges in being a dog owner. Our training lessons are not rushed and are most beneficial. For me and my dog Taco, we always look forward to our training sessions.

    Trainer Note:
    Thank you Vince. "Taco" is an amazing pup and is progressing wonderfully. I love seeing the dogs improve, better yet seeing you become a great dog handler is so satisfying.

    After doing some online research, we decided to work with Scott on some behavioral issues for both our 14 year old dog and 7 month old puppy. They were barking aggressively at the door and visitors, lunging at other dogs on walks, begging at the table, licking dishes in the dishwasher, and the pup had begun to dig and chew sticks in the yard. Scott came over for about 1.5 hours last Saturday for our first session, and it has already made a WORLD of difference! They wait for us to let them approach guests, respect us and our commands regarding food and barking, and we even were able to start walking training with them that first day! I cannot recommend Scott and Bark Busters enough. It is more training for you, the owners, than it is for the dogs. Scott also made some dietary recommendations that we are looking forward to trying. If you are considering making the investment in Bark Busters -- DO IT!

    Photo of Tebow, Solo, Chance, Tucker Mike has been such a blessing! Teaching me and then working with me and my dogs to have a happier, calmer and more behaved life! I saw instant results with the tools Mike gave me at our first session, with practice and reinforcement. We just had our second session on walking on a loose leash- truly amazing progress!!!!! Loving this training.

    Photo of Bowie Michelle has been so helpful. She is there to give you, the pet owner, all of the tools to best communicate with your pup and therefore build a greater bond! Bowie is my first dog and in a few short months he's become a completely different dog because I've become a better owner thanks to Michelle. We haven't covered everything yet, but we are on our way!

    Trainer Note:
    Darma has been reactive to dogs for most of her life, today was the first time she didn't react. With consistency she will continue to improve. Calo is new to the family, and we are teaching her the basics. She responded very well to our training techniques. I am really looking forward to seeing her grow!
