    My primary goal was to be able to walk by other dogs quietly, without our dog going into attack mode.
    With the skills we learned from Mark Lieberman, we were able to accomplish this.

    This is the 3rd german shepard that I have owned and by far the hardest to train and with Mikes help and guidence by the 3 lesson he is a much more controled dog. I can now take him for walks without worring about him going after someone or another animal. It feel like I have a total different dog from 4 weeks ago.

    I had Linda in my home for about 3 hours during my initial training session with my 4 year old Lab to deal with a severe case of separation anxiety. I was really at a breaking point with him. If we didn't get this resolved, I may have had to give him away.
    After just those 3 hours with Linda it is like a different dog. He will happily go into his crate and lay down with not even a whimper. He walks on a leash like he is supposed to and really is a almost perfect dog after just that one visit.
    I would highly recommend Linda Conrad and BarkBusters to anyone.
    Thanks Linda for "rescuing" Lucky!

    Photo of Kira After raising one Maltese completely unsuccessfully, I wasn't taking any chances with my second one. I called Bark Busters a week after bringing Kira home. Thanks to Sarah, I now have the perfect dog!

    Sarah taught "us" every aspect of training including basic commands, housebreaking, walking on a leash, not running out my from door, everything!!!! She was always available by email with immediate situations that came up, and all the house calls we needed for the hands on lessons. I cannot thank her enough!

    It helped us that Karen explained exactly why the training techniques worked. I've have NEVER had such a quick response from a dog with any other training technique. I'm so much more comfortable training this way because if feels like I am bonding with my dog while we are training! Bark Busters methods are much more effective than other training methods out there like special collars or treats. Other trainers have made me feel inadequate as a dog owner or ever shamed me! Thank you for building me up and helping me learn that I've just been speaking the wrong language!

    Trainer Note:
    Sara had a very tough case on her hands with her recently rescued dog. This dog had been found wandering the streets of Charlotte and was in pretty rough shape but he is a survivor! Sara brought him to good health. The rib came in convincing Haymitch that he not only had a nurse, but had a boss! This dog gave Sara respect signs immediately! Impressive! To keep the relationship in proper perspective, however, she is going to have to be consistent, consistent, consistent ... and not confuse Haymitch with training techniques that she has learned from other training programs! Great job!

    Photo of Sadie I observed noticeable results. Sadie responded in a quieter mode. I was very pleased with the natural training techniques. If you have problem dogs and need training, I recommend Bark Busters.

    Photo of Geral David Wiley is wonderful!!! I am not afraid of Gerald, but afraid of what Gerald may do to someone else when he gets into his "scary zone." David has helped me gain control and understand what I need to do. Learning doggie behavior is great. This is a must for all dog owners!!!

    Joanne has been wonderful in helping me to train my new puppy. She gives clear, detailed oral and written instructions. I saw results from the very first lesson. She is very knowledgeable and my puppy and I have benefited greatly from her Bark Buster training sessions.

    Scott is AMAZING! I called him because my 5 year old aussie was turning into an aggressive brat with my friends and some of my family and not listening at all! After just one session with Scott my dog (Scout) was no longer barking at the door or at people coming over and now he even accepts belly rubs from my friends. Seriously, Scott is fantastic! I really can't thank him enough for giving me my puppy back :)
