    We reached out to Mark to help with our 1.5 year old male rottweiler, Beau. At about a year old, he started becoming reactive to dogs he doesn't know on walks, in the car, and looking out the window of the house. It made walks more stressful and having to keep the window blinds down during the day. It has been about a week since our initial session with Mark and Beau has been a different dog outside. On walks, he is responsive and engaged with us when asked, and we have been able to walk by new dogs without a reaction. Another huge win for us was Beau making a good choice (on his own!) not to react at a dog he would normally bark at passing by our house. We are so grateful for Mark's help, his experience, and being able to communicate with our dog effectively. Would definitely recommend Mark if you need help with your dog!

    Photo of Moose First session went very well with John. We have the tools to help our rescue dog. Future lessons will hopefully help the dog and his behaviors even more but we saw a considerable difference after the first lesson.

    Bonnie was very clear in her explanations of how to establish better boundaries with our pups. So far, the pups are doing really well with their homework. We are excited to see how they continue to progress.

    I want to share a wonderful experience I had with Bark Busters and the Lifetime guarantee that they really live up to. My first training session was in Miami with Luis in 2022 with our Goldendoodle Benji. He was very professional and thorough with every step in the training. He was patient, kind and provided all we needed to stay on the right track. Fast forward to present day, 2025, in a different state, Benji started barking at everything. I contacted Luis and he instructed me to reach out to a trainer in my area, whom of which he spoke highly of. I contacted Lexi, in the Woodlands, and she came right on out and got Benji right. She was very nice and thorough as well. Also no extra charge, so if anyone is leary about the Lifetime guarantee, do not be, I am real client. They are true the dog whisperers. {:

    Photo of Major & Sarge Session was really good, I was in shock how fast both dogs responded to the training. Looking forward to the future.

    Photo of CHIEF, LEO AND BUSTER I had my first meeting with Heather today and she was so great with the three of my dogs. Even after just one session I think they were already getting a hang of the exercises we were working on. She was very patient with us and a great teacher. I’m really looking forward to our future visits so I can see them continue to improve! Highly recommend!

    I had a fantastic training session with Nicole and couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. She helped me focus on attentiveness training with my dog and gave thoughtful, constructive feedback on how I’ve been guiding and correcting behavior. Her insights on strengthening my leadership were especially valuable — they gave me a clearer sense of how to build a more confident and responsive relationship with my dog.
    Nicole took the time to understand my dog’s history, which really helped put some of the behavioral challenges into context. Her ability to tailor the training to our unique situation made all the difference. The guidance she provided was clear, actionable, and supportive. I left the session with specific things to work on before our next meeting, and I saw immediate improvements in my dog’s behavior.
    What stands out most is Nicole’s communication — she’s thorough, encouraging, and follows up after sessions, which helps tremendously in staying on track. I truly appreciate the support she provides and am excited to continue working and learning with her. Highly recommend!

    Thank you, Jessica, for the amazing review! It is a pleasure to be able to help you and Rio. Though I didn't get to meet him as a puppy, since he trained with a colleague in Florida 2 years ago, I can see he has grown into being a sweet, responsive adult dog. And I'm glad that our Lifetime Guarantee of Support was in place to help you guys get the support you needed after the move! Look forward to continuing to see his progress!

    Mike came over this morning, and it was life changing. Emma has been impossible on walks recently and has been reacting to other dogs. Barking, pulling, almost making me fall over. Walking became very stressful instead of relaxing and enjoyable. It felt like a chore. She is also hyperactive at times, and when she's triggered, she jumps, flings herself at me, etc. Mike taught me techniques that helped calm her hyperactivity. He showed me effective leadership skills (which I need to practice daily to reinforce). Within half an hour, she did not get triggered by knocking, the bell, me walking into another room, etc. She clearly wants a better leader, and Mike gave me the tools.

    Towards the end of the lesson, we were doing exercises and training outside. He had his dogs in the car. I was anxious and nervous because I know how she has been. I was shocked! She ignored the other dog and kept walking calmly. Within minutes, Mike was walking the two of them together!

    I have his phone number saved as, "Michael Dog Whisperer," for a reason! I highly recommend his services.
