    Photo of Kathy Stetz and Betsy Foglia changed our home life! They relieved all the tension surrounding our two dogs. Specifically, we were ready to give up on our 4 year old severely troubled Boxer/Pit mix. She was nervous around all strangers and aggressive to other dogs in the neighborhood. Bark Busters was the last chance for Tootsie. If she didn't improve her behavior, she was going to the Animal Warden. After three hours of working with Kathy & Betsy and 3 weeks of practicing the techniques we learned, we have a new dog! We can walk her with confidence knowing she isn't going to charge or act aggressively toward other dogs or children. We can invite visitors into the house knowing Tootsie will play nice. After working their program, Tootsie now even allows strangers to pet her. We have a completely new and intelligent dog. We just needed Kathy, Betsy and Starr to help us find her!! Kathy and Betsy were so personable and easy to work with. They were professional and cared enough about Tootsie to be tough on us. The made multiple follow-up calls to check on our progress and offer reassurance. We would recommend Kathy and Betsy to all dog owners, they are dog miracle workers. Thank you so much!

    Clear and concise communication. The results were night and day and we have 5 dogs to work with. The techniques were very compassionate that not only got results but made sense. We had fun. Even my 3 children (ages 15, 13 and 10) had a fun time. Recommend Bark Busters? Absolutely! Dick is amazing and the Bark Buster system works!

    My dog Penney is afraid of most things so imagine my surprise when she tried to attack a neighbor dog and started growling at my friends. I tried everything I could think of but when she actually bit my nephew I was really worried. My vet recommended Bark Busters and Amy came out right away. I had no idea how stressed Penney was. She stopped barking and growling on the first day and I am happy to report almost a year later, she has not barked or growled since! I will always watch her but she is so relaxed a truly seems like nothing bothers her like it did before. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

    Photo of I can't believe it has now been 6 years since we had our first training session with Cisco & Koda. When our Newfoundlands were 7-8 months old, they were 2 very different personality types, each with seperate issues that we needed help with. We were amazed at how quickly we were able to communicate with our 'boys' what we needed from them, and what they needed from us. Both are 7 years old now, and people are amazed at how well they are connected to us. Even after all this time, we sometimes see Nick out and about, and Cisco & Koda act like Nick's their long lost brother!

    It was unbelievable how much Lola learned in one lesson! I look forward to the next steps in training Lola (and me) to be the dog I now know she can be!!

    I found the training experience to be interesting and enjoyable. I observed results by the end of the training session. I would recommend Bark Busters to my friends and neighbors.

    Photo of We wanted a happy, well-behaved puppy. On our own, we had only achieved the "happy" part. Lisa and Nelson gave us the tools for encouraging our Cavalier King Charles to follow beside us on a walk, wait politely at the front door when visitors arrive, only jump up on the sofa when invited and all the other manners an owner could hope their beloved pet would consistently exhibit. It may seem dramatic to say they have changed our relationship with our pet but that is exactly what has occurred. Our results are beyond our wildest dreams. Thank you, Lisa and Nelson.

    Karen showed us the techniques repeatedly until we felt we understood what to do. Hawkeye seemed to catch on. He relates very well to Karen. It's nice not to use treats all the time and we were never in favor of using force. Karen is very personable and takes the time to listen to us. She is very positive and gives good feedback. It really is a good tool for us to understand how to interact with our dog to get good results!
