    Photo of Lucy Jerry was SO helpful. I tried other training classes only to be disappointed in the results. Barkbuster's technique was immediately effective. My dog responded very quickly and with a little practice, her behavior improved tremendously! The way Jerry explained everything made so much sense! He taught me so much about my dog, dog behavior, and gave me tools that have greatly improved our quality of life!

    Google Review: "Betty Lou and Rachael were great and they helped our very skittish Great Dane Thor to become much more social and confident. People remark weekly on the change in him and how happy he seems. He has also learned to be the alpha dog to our younger pup who also benefited from their behavior and leash training. I highly recommend them to anyone who wants to help their pups learn to fit more into the family and to be more well behaved pups."

    It was a pleasure working with y'all. And we are so happy to see the relaxed, friendly and confident dog Thor has become. And, of course, we always love working with puppies. That Zeus is one sweet boy!

    We started with Johnny to help with our first dog, Elroy about 3 years ago. He was a 1 year rescue Pitbull with no leash manners, reactivity to people and dogs, and serious resource guarding. Our sessions with Johnny gave my wife and I confidence to know that Elroy was safe and able to work with and improve. Through the right guidance, training, and tools Elroy is now an amazing family dog who loves going hiking and enjoys going out almost anywhere with us. With much consulting with Johnny we decided Elroy was ready to bring another dog into our family, so about 7 months ago we added Apollo, a 2 month old Rottweiler. Johnny has continue to support us from introducing the dogs to each other, each stage of Apollo's puppy development, and now continued training and development for both dogs together. Johnny has been extremely supportive with any dog related questions and we love that he is able to help us with anything we want to add to our dogs skill set as well as encouraging us to try new things to enrich our dogs.

    Pam is a miracle worker! I have a German Shepherd that started to display aggression. I was afraid to walk him when other dogs were around. It got to the point I wouldn't walk my dog until midnight! After working with Pam, I learned to establish myself as a leader and get Buddy to actually listen to me. It's amazing the results you see when you learn to communicate with your pup. Buddy and I now enjoy multiple walks/day.

    Photo of Tucco & Twilight Karen was absolutely fantastic! My 2 chows who are age 2 & 3 years ran the household and me. Karen gave us the foundation we needed to become the leaders our dogs needed and deserved. I saw results day 1 and that has motivated me to use the skills Karen taught me every day. We continue to improve each day and it feels amazing. Karen is professional, comes to each appointment on time, explains everything clearly and thoroughly. The services offered are well worth the time and money to spend with Karen. She has shared some really good for us and I’m excited to be with my dogs and lead them to be the best they can be 🐶🤎

    Photo of Georgia Larry Rudginsky has been a kind and gentle teacher for my incredibly energetic and stubborn pup. She is learning manners and how to behave on and off a leash as well as walking near other dogs and people without running at them. It has been a challenge but she is learning to be acceptable in and with company! I like this program of learning together - very helpful for us both!

    Benji - a sweet dog with many issues like pulling extremely hard on the leash, resource guarding, attacking my cat, and jumping. All these problems were practically resolved within the first visit. He is like a brand new dog, he doesn't bark when someone rings the doorbell, pulls on walks, and now he even cuddles with my cat! We've seen such an improvement in his resource guarding issues as well!! Can't wait to continue to work with Benji and get him to where he needs to be. Thank you so much Mark!

    We were so frustrated with our rescued puppies resistance to our home training to no end. Now we can see the light at the end of the tunnel! Bark Busters style of command and confidence training is just what the doctor ordered. Looking forward to many great years with our trained dogs! Thank you Michael and Lydia, you saved us from our despair.

    Bark Busters made a huge difference right away with my dog Izzy's behavior. It's only been a couple days since my at home training session with Michael, but Izzy seems like a new dog. She has barely barked since the training and she used to bark at almost every new person or dog she came across. She is also much more respectful of boundaries now and she doesn't pull at the leash during walks anymore. I highly recommend Bark Busters to anyone whose dogs are excessively barking or have other problem behaviors. Thank you, Michael and Bark Busters!

    Absolutely MINDBLOWING first session! I have a reactive dachshund Elton, who barks aggressively at anyone coming to the door, people walking by etc. Scott taught us some great techniques and Elton’s behavior change was immediate. Highly recommend using this service!!
