    Over the three sessions we've had with Michael we are very pleased with the results. Michael is working with our 6 1/2 year old Australian Labradoodle called Georgie.

    Michael was our last effort to try and get Georgies barking under control. Over the years we have tried other trainers, all of whom were top notch, but could not get the results we wanted. They did, however, help us with basic training skills. My wife and I were very skeptical as to whether anyone would be able to help us with the barking.

    After reading the literature and reviews about Bark Busters we decided we would try one more time.

    From the first meeting with Michael we knew this was going to be something totally new. His approach was completely different than anyone else before him. We spent the first couple of hours alone with him without our dog. He went over how Bark Busters worked and he answered all of our questions patiently until we got it. We had to change our thinking on how traditional dog training worked. We needed to understand how dogs communicate and how we can make them understand us in their language, not human language. Still not sure if this was going to work or not, we decided to put our faith in Michael and the program Bark Busters has developed over the years.

    At every step of this journey Michael has been patient and ready to lend support day or night. To say that we are satisfied with his approach and his relationship with us and with Georgie would be a tremendous understatement. Michael is always willing to talk us through a problem and never seems to be in a bad mood. He's full of energy and enthusiasm which gives us confidence that this will ultimately be a success. So far it definitely has been. We are happy to give Michael our highest recommendation.

    Greg is truly a phenomenal and a master of his craft. We were at rock bottom and completely desperate. We’ve been struggling with our 2.5 year old pup’s severe separation anxiety for almost two years. Feeling like a prisoner in our own home and spending lots of money on dog watchers. We’ve struggled even more recently with sporadic aggression towards new people entering our home. This came out of the blue; but, quite terrifying as our dog is a 70 pound big boy. Greg came in and sure enough Beau was aggressive towards him. Greg gave us some training tools to help control and calm Beau down. He left and came back and we were able to do just that. We continued these tools on our own and with all visitors people Beau knew already as well as strangers. And it was going great. Sure enough by Greg’s second visit we had no aggression towards Greg and a perfect introduction. Along with his aggression improving, Beaus separation anxiety is also greatly improving. Greg not only taught us training tools but explained the way dogs think and how we need to understand this in order to see results. I cannot recommend Greg enough! He is so supportive and knowledgeable both in person and via text message in between sessions. Bark Busters & Greg are changing all of our lives for the better.

    Kayla from Bark Busters came to our home to help us train our new puppy Bentley. She was great, we worked on some skills at our home, then went to the park to see how he would interact with other dogs.She gave us simple commands to use with Bentley and they worked. Recently I called Kayla to come back out and help us with getting Bentley back on track. Again Kayla’s knowledge and skills were spot on. Bentley responded immediately to the commands. I would highly recommend Kayla at Bark Busters.

    Photo of Ralph We absolutely LOVE Andrea and are so thankful we found her! After moving across the country with our new puppy, Ralph, we struggled to get him back on track with potty training. I called several trainers, but none felt right—some didn’t offer in-home visits, others wanted to send him away for weeks, and many made me feel like I had already failed as a dog owner.

    Then I spoke with Andrea, and everything changed. She was kind, knowledgeable, and immediately offered helpful tips without hesitation. It was clear she genuinely cares and knows her stuff. Before we even met her in person, my boyfriend and I knew we wanted to work with her.

    She’s experienced, funny, compassionate, and just amazing to be around. We’re so excited to keep working with her and help Ralph grow into the well-mannered angel we know he can be!
