Scot, thank you very much for our training session. We feel that it was successful. Our dogs bark much less on walks. They sleep separately all night. Seem much more obedient. We definitely will recommend your service to others. Sincerely Janna and Boris, Lucy and Dusya. 🦮

We had a fantastic experience working with James and can't recommend him highly enough.
PermalinkOur dog Yaki used to be a serious puller on walks and would get overly excited whenever he saw other dogs.
It got to the point where we'd actively avoid other dogs altogether--which isn't exactly practical in a townhome community full of them.
James didn't just "train the dog"-he trained us. He helped us understand how to recognize when Yaki was entering that "yellow zone" before things escalated to red, and gave us the tools to redirect him early. His approach focused on energy, body language, and even using our own "bark" to communicate clearly and confidently.
The biggest shift was helping Yaki understand that he doesn't need to protect us--we've got that covered.
That change alone made a world of difference.
Now, walks are actually enjoyable. We can move through our neighborhood calmly and confidently without the constant stress we used to feel.
If you're dealing with similar challenges, James is absolutely worth it.

James has worked wonders with my 6 year old lab mix, Artie. Overall, she is a very good girl but has hao reactivity problems on walks. After being attacked several times by off leash dogs, she would constantly lunge and throw herself at other dogs, uncontrollably scratching and snarling at other dogs behind fences and others we'd pass the street.
PermalinkAfter just a few sessions with James and rigorous adherence to the home program, it was like walking a different dog. Our walks are a lot calmer and she can relax and enjoy the adventure.

I hired Bark Bsuters for aggression issue. Orlando thought us Silas is no aggressive and showed us how to be a leader. The changes in our dogs were close to immediate and I'm confident we can have a new relationship with our dogs.

We moved from Piermont to Nyack in November 2025. My 2 year old dog became very reactive and after much advice including boarding/training I was fortunate to have Bark Busters and specifically Michelle recommended to me as a dog trainer/behavioralist by a vet tech at the vet we use. Michelle provided great training, tools and advice and made such a difference in our quality of life in our new home! I am no longer stressed when taking Dante out for walks and feel very confident based on the training and tools provided by Michelle. If you are struggling with behavioral issues with your dog please do reach out to Bark Busters/Michelle. You will not regret it!

Miguel was amazing! He was incredibly patient with my loud little Jack Russel Terrier, Guster. He gave me some good drills to work on over the next week and an easy to follow schedule. I would 10/10 recommend Bark Busters and Miguel. You won’t regret it.

This was a wonderful experience. Connie is amazing and really helped with behaviors we didn’t know how to address. I absolutely recommend Bark Busters and Connie!

We have a small cute loving albeit NOISY barker of a Havanese. She would bark at anything uncontrollably. We love to take our two dogs (our second pup is a Brussels Griffon who loves everyone) out in public with us. Our Havanese would be ok until someone else came by or talked and then she’d explode with loud shrill barks. Scaring all of us. I was afraid she was going to literally give someone a heart attack.
PermalinkMichael with Bark Busters was hired for the job of helping to solve our dilemma. We were a bit unsure after his first visit. But by day 2 after that we became believers as we saw the true transformation of our dogs behavior for the better. And now 2 months later I can tell you this is real. We have taken the information and made it work for our dogs behavior. Everyone is amazed at her transformation. And as a side note I want to stress that no harsh methods were used. The only downside is that they can be considered expensive but we are happy with the outcome!
