Johnny has been working with our family for a little over a month and our Yuki has been progressing so quickly. Johnny is a fantastic teacher and will throughly explain the why, how, and when which is great help since I have zero knowledge on dog training. He is always available to answer my questions via text or phone. A month ago I used to see dogs off leash and they would recall their dog and they would come right back. I honestly didn't think that was possible for our little guy because he's so young but we've been able to recall him at the park today after working with Johnny yesterday. Its amazing and so fufilling to see my dog accomplish so much in such a short time. If you're looking for knowledgeable, patient, and kind and really an overall great guy. I highly recommend Johnny and fyi I did a whole lot of research before picking Bark Buster. I asked to speak to Johnny before committing to make sure he was the right fit for our family. He has been the best investment and I look forward to our sessions as Yuki grows into adulthood with the aspirations to become a therapy dog.

One Month Later—Still Blown Away
PermalinkI wanted to wait a full month before writing this because I didn’t want to get too excited too fast… but I can say now, without a doubt: Patrick and Bark Busters are absolutely incredible.
If you don’t read any further, just know this—Patrick is the real deal. His guidance and the Bark Busters method made a noticeable difference in our home right away. But—and this is important—you have to do the work. There’s no shortcut. It takes consistency, every day, every moment. But if you’re committed, the results are real.
We have two Labs—one’s 3 years old and the other was 8 months when we reached out for help. We thought the older one was well-behaved because he was “calm,” but in hindsight… maybe not so much. Meanwhile, the puppy was jumping, barking at the door, overwhelmed by visitors, and hadn’t even been introduced to our older dog yet.
Patrick showed up and within minutes he helped us start “speaking dog.” The transformation with our puppy was almost immediate. He gave us tools to lead with clarity—not by being harsh, but by setting limits and being consistent. By the time Patrick left, the energy in the house was completely different. The dogs were calmer, and we felt more in control.
And yes—there’s homework. Every day. But it’s doable. And Patrick is always just a call or text away if you need help.
A month later, things are better than we could have imagined. The dogs are now introduced, they play together, hang out calmly, and we’ve set real boundaries that make everyday life much more enjoyable. Just this week we even realized our “well-behaved” older dog may have been part of the problem all along—turns out we had some habits to break too. Patrick helped us see that, and now we’re working on recall and public behavior with both dogs.
Bottom line: if you’re struggling at all—whether it’s big issues or just small things that are adding up—call Patrick. The Bark Busters system works, and Patrick really knows what he’s doing. We're so grateful we made the call.

Robert is an excellent trainer. The patience he has shown my family during Grover's training is exceptional. He has given us tools to understand our puppy's needs and behavior. He has given our daughter the confidence to handle Grover. He is a great teacher, trainer, and a wonderful person overall.

NO WORDS can express our heartfelt gratitude for the GIFT of working with Greg Kleva and his team (11 yrs ago ). - I wanted to share the long-term review here. Our dog was an abused rescue and he was skittish. This was our first dog as well. Greg was the BEST choice EVER, and I swear if it wasn’t for Greg’s calm and commanding nature, he established immediate respect from Rebel. And he taught us how to continue.
PermalinkThrough MANY trials over the first 4 years of our pup's life, Greg used humor and firmness with both us and our dog, to get our dog to respect us, making us the Alpha. I had 2 other teachers from a local obedience class tell me my dog would end up in a shelter because he was untrainable. ENTER GREG Kleva BARKBUSTERS (recommended by our vet). He thought those comments were ridiculous that in fact EVERY DOG of any age can be trained.
Our vet said we saved Rebel's life twice due to Greg’s training. Rebel is honestly a great dog, due in large part to having a great trainer. I had referred Barkbusters several times through the years, and those dogs are ALL doing equally great.
There are trainers and there is GREG and his amazing team . I can't recommend them enough- their text/email support, their availability, all totally worth every penny. We get nonstop praise for HOW well-trained our dog is! The key is you need to listen AND IMPLEMENT all Greg says! And you will be rewarded with a lifelong amazing experience like we’ve had here, THANKS TO GREG Kleva and his Bark Busters crew!! Call them, you won’t regret it.
