    It was very easy to implement all techniques recommended and follow through.
    Izzy is so much more relaxed and easier to walk. She is much more responsive and walking is fun again!

    Karen explained and demonstrated the training techniques very clearly. I was really amazed and impressed by the way our dogs responded to this training. I've tried training them by using treats before and felt that this method was much better! Explaining Calvin and Candi's issues from the dog pack perspective made a lot of sense. Their behavior has been stressing me out! It is such a relief to have a solution and I appreciate this so much!

    Trainer Note:
    Lisa was unsure if Bark Busters training would work initially because her dogs aren't youngsters and the family has recently moved into a new home. When she stepped up to be the confident leader her dogs were seeking, her two ten year olds responded beautifully! It is so encouraging to see stress melt off of a dog!

    We love Frank !
    My one year old Bichon Cooper had been attacked by two Pitt Bulls and
    had lost all his confidence.
    Frank worked with the both of us to help him gain it back. It worked.
    We also worked on all he needed to know to make him the best dog.
    Franks patience and calm really works for us.I was surprised when I called Frank the other day which was 3 yrs later, as I had a new problem with Cooper and the mailman.Frank responded immediately and came right over to give me some
    guidance.
    He never judges me when I slip up and is always ready to get you back on
    track.
    I would not hesitate to recommend him,in fact I already have.
    I would give Frank more than 5 stars if I could.

    Sammy, my 3 y/o male shih-tzu has not been socially trained. I am home bound and cannot get out very much. As such, Sammy lacks adequate social skills and longs for canine interface. When we go out for walks and happen to meet another dog and owner, Sammy is so excited that I can hardly control him. He barks and pulls and often his neck hair raises. I fear that a dog fight might occur, he senses my insecurities which makes matters worse. With Jason and his two dogs, we were able to give Sammy some company and help me become more relaxed about the initial barking and curiosity that Sammy exhibits. Jason was so helpful and would come over when 'the bottom fell out' and I was in panic mode. Sammy is quite a willful cutie but, with Jason's help, I can get him to actually come, not pull when we walk, and I am becoming more confident with happening upon strangers and their dogs. Jason has been so helpful and always responds to e-mails and calls. He is quite generous with his time and is so patient. He is very knowledgeable but most of all, he is a good soul who really wants dogs and owners to have a rewarding life together. Jason always provides training instructions for any problem owners may have. He is always willing to help and is never short tempered, no matter how many times an owner might fail. I have learned to relax with Sammy and let him be a dog. He really is a good boy and I have become a better owner. We are blessed to have Jason as our 'safety net' if we lose ground and have to regroup. You will be so glad to have Jason to guide you and your best friend. You and your little luv will be on the right track.

    We can't thank Rick enough for the training tools he taught us. Before training Bindi ran the show in our house. Now she listens to us, obeys the commands and will take walks without trying to go after other dogs. The lessons were easy to learn and Rick was very good at explaining the concepts. I have already passed his information off to three other families.

    Photo of Beau We needed help with our new lab puppy regarding toileting, nipping and his food behaviors. I called Rob to schedule an appointment, and we ended up speaking for quite a while prior to his visit. He gave me some excellent techniques to try until we were able to meet. Great first impression! Our subsequent training session did not disappoint. Our high spirited puppy responded to his gentle commands immediately. He gave us great advice and the tools to implement that advice. I feel tremendously confident that working with Rob will continue to bring us fantastic results.

    Photo of Scout James and Bark Busters have made it where we can truly enjoy our dogs! We got a new rescue lab puppy in July and she was driving us crazy...counter surfing, chewing, biting, jumping etc. After our initial meeting with James and the training provided, we started seeing results. The methods are logical and easy to implement...and we learned that consistency on our part is the secret. We'd had other training in the past with our other dog but had seen mixed results...we're truly sold on the Bark Busters method and recommend it to anyone who wants to control their dog rather than the other way around.
