    Omar was amazing. He taught us how to truly communicate with our dog. And learning better communication with our dog we're getting the behavior changes we desired Omar. Our trainer was well spoken very clear and concise. He was an excellent instructor. I highly recommend Barker Busters to anyone who wants to get rid of chaotic anxious behavior in a dog. The written materials that Barker Busters leaves behind as well as emails electronically are very helpful. we look forward to learning more from Omar at our next appointment. The in-home training also is a huge benefit because it allows the trainer and the owners to concentrate on each other without interruption by others or other dogs.

    Photo of Abbey These guys are amazing. I got Randy and Jared, and they were both equally as amazing. After the first visit with Randy, 75% of all issues were taken care of. After Jared came a few weeks later the remaining 25% of problems we were dealing with were fixed. Since they left me with all the tools to continue practicing good behavior with my dog, none of the problems have resurfaced. The things they helped fix was: jumping on the people and on or doors, eating our other dog's food, recall, and walks. Getting my dog to go on walks was super important because she was terrified of leaving the driveway and I had no idea what to do about it. On the first visit Randy helped to get her more comfortable with being on the leash and being in front of the house. After the second visit with Jared she venturing out on walks with full confidence. Bark Busters really is incredible and they have amazing being working for them. I do recommend Bark Busters.

    My dog is very well on his obedience but he was a singleton ( only child) and did not learn how to respond to other dogs and their cues. I recently hired Bark Busters who are behavioral specialists. Our instructor came last night and today my dog acts like the weight of the world has been lifted from him. He has done great with homework! Evan Ritcher is the instructor and has been phenomenal! Highly recommend this company!

    Photo of Finnegan and Daisy After just one session with Mark, we have course-corrected the fear aggression that we have seen building over time within our 4-year-old dog, Finnegan. After two (2) poor encounters, one at a groomer and one with another dog, Finnegan developed a very intense reaction to other dogs (and anyone in scrubs), to the point where we could not walk past another dog across the street. He would bark and pull and just go crazy, all out of immense fear. Other aspects of his temperament also started worsening like guarding socks and/or toilet paper. We felt like we were losing our dog. The worst realization was that our 1-year-old dog, Daisy, was beginning to pick up the same characteristics simply by watching him. We tried other training methods over the years that all helped/made small improvements but nothing was as dramatic as Mark and Bark Busters. He helped us reset with the dogs, establish leadership and own the space so that our dogs feel safe and look to us for direction. We have work to do to reinforce the training and make it our way of life, but we feel very excited and thankful for all of it. Our dogs are much happier as well, even after just a few weeks. We would HIGHLY recommend Mark and Bark Busters to anyone.

    After just one week working with Bonnie, my dog Sherman understands that I am the leader of our pack. He walks next to me beautifully. He stops barking when commanded. He follows me vs. being unruly and underfoot. He is far more relaxed overall. The concept is brilliant and very easy to administer for fast results!

    Adrienne is amazing! I can't even begin to describe the difference two sessions has made with our big pup, Otis. He is a big boy (120+ lbs) and was super dog reactive. I wasn't able to walk him with any control and it was getting dangerous. I had hired previous trainers who literally told me Otis was a danger to society and me and to euthanize him. Adrienne came in and calmly explained how to properly communicate with a dog. Otis responded immediately. Adrienne understood he is just a big sweet boy who needed more direction and to know he didn't have to protect us or worry so much. All the training is done in a safe manner with no harmful punishment techniques for your dog. It is based upon how mother dogs communicate with their puppies - in a dog's language. After just two visits Otis was literally so much calmer and relaxed. During the second visit he was able to meet Adrienne's dog, Nala and he was a good boy! We were able to walk them around the block together and another dog passed and Otis remained calm. This is night and day from his aggressive, dog reactive behavior. If you have any issues at all with your dog please don't loose hope but seriously call Adrienne. Do your homework! Our lives have truly changed for the better - there is much less stress in our house and we have a good dog! Thank you, Thank you!
