    Sharon has shown me in one day what I’ve been trying to accomplish for years. I am absolutely thrilled with what I witnessed today. I have two reactive dogs with separation anxiety and one that lacks boundaries and is incredibly energetic. When people walk by with or without dogs, Gunnar goes nuts, and I was struggling to control the situation and feeling so frustrated. Today I watched him engage and disengage almost instantly as a neighbor walked his dogs by my window. And I watched him respond to the correction multiple times in our session. I also watched my older, reactive dog Riley walk past a plush dog that he first barked and lunged at. With guidance from Bark Buster’s trainer, he calmly walked past without even showing interest in the dog. We also addressed leash pulling. Gunnar is the type of dog who would choke himself to go on a walk and I had tried almost everything to make it stop. Nothing worked until today. I watched my dog slow down, check in with me, and walk behind me instead of pulling me. Sharon taught me things I never would have thought of when training a dog. There’s no use of harsh collars or punishments. I truly believe with our continued practice of these techniques and use of tools that my dogs will become confident, comfortable, less reactive, and less anxious. This was one of the best decisions I have ever made. Thanks to Bark Busters, I now have what I need to help my dogs live a happier life.

    Photo of Lizzie, Himawari, Angel Ann The remarkable difference in all 3 of the girls behavior was astonishing. If I was not there to participate I would not have believed the change in the first session. I was so impressed by the training techniques by Orlando.

    Photo of Sammy I wasn't sure if our terrier mix could respond to training at his age (around nine years old), but we saw immediate improvement after just one session with Deb. He now understands that he does not have to bark at every visitor to our house or person we encounter on the street. He seems more relaxed as a result, and so are we.

    Deb was great, she taught us as dog parents a lot
    She worked with Reiley and she made us realize Reiley is a smart girl and learns quickly. Us on the other hand need a lot of work. But we will do it!!! Thank you Deb

    Heather was very professional and her directions were clear and obtainable. I seen progress right away with Molly and Oliver. We even have videos that she sent to us as references.

    We’ve only been working with Scott for a little over a month, but the transformation in our dog has been incredible. Before training, our pup was extremely reactive to other dogs, cats, squirrels, bunnies—even some people. Walks were stressful and unpredictable, and we honestly weren’t sure things could change. Scott’s techniques have made a night-and-day difference. He not only gave us the tools to manage our dog’s reactivity, but also taught us how to build calm, consistent habits that stick. Already, we’re seeing huge improvements—what used to trigger an explosion of barking and lunging is now met with much calmer, more controlled behavior. Scott is patient, clear, and encouraging. He really takes the time to explain the “why” behind his methods, which makes it easier for us to follow through and stay consistent at home. It’s obvious he truly cares about both the dogs and their humans, and the results speak for themselves. If you’re struggling with a reactive dog or just want a trainer who brings real results in a supportive way, we cannot recommend Scott highly enough. He’s been a game-changer for us and our dog!

    Google Review: "Rachel and Betty Lou are knowledgeable and have a keen insight into dog behavior. I had never used a trainer before to correct bad behavior, but I'm so glad I did. I was afraid the tactics would be cumbersome or cruel. But they're not at all. My dog picked right up on their cues and techniques. Instead of using treats for rewards, which is what I expected, they just use simple praise. They are both patient, kind, and caring animal lovers who can help you understand why your pet is behaving a certain way and offer tips for changing that behavior. It was a lot easier than I thought. I would definitely use them again and highly recommend them!"

    Luis definitely knows what he is doing. Just had the first session and it was great! Penny is reactive towards men and given that Luis was able to be in her presence without being reactive whilst teaching us was amazing. My family and I are looking forward to rehabilitating Penny with Luis's guidance!

    Our session with steve was well thought out and he came prepared with a straight forward game plan. He didn’t waste any time and got straight to work, while explaining the concepts to us in a way we could easily understand. Our dog was making grand improvements that we would have never expected instantly and we highly recommend that you book with barkbusters. Also, we are two queer people in our household and steve was highly respectable and treated us as he would any other client.
