    Photo of Niner Amber is the best in TEXAS. When she arrived are dog was very unruly. At the end of the session we did not recognize our dog. (GREAT EXPERIENCE) Needed all the help in the world.

    Photo of Schatzie & Reggie Cassidy with Bark Busters is the best! Our two labradors, ages 4 and 6 are so lovable, but they ruled the house. They jumped on people when someone came through the front door, pulled us on their walks, begged at the dinner table and needed overall reinforcement on human/pet boundaries.
    Cassidy addressed our specific issues with a clear and consistent approach. Guests can now walk in the front door without being bombarded, our walks are enjoyable (*bonus I can walk both dogs at the same time) the begging has stopped, and friends have commented on how “calm and well behaved” our dogs are.
    The training, expertise and guidance Bark Busters provides is a game changer and worth every penny. Their approach doesn’t involve choke collars, correction collars or treats, so the training can be implemented anywhere you and your pet are.

    Photo of Gadget Luis is knowledgeable, patient and genuinely takes the time to understand not only your dog, but the unique bond and family dynamics as well. I rescued my dog as a puppy and while he had always been very social, when he got to about a year and a half I started noticing some reactive behaviors that were confusing. I read plenty of reviews and researched different companies and appreciated the way Bark Busters communicated their approach. From my first call with them, it was clear that they did not take a "one size fits all" approach and understood what I was hoping to accomplish and we had booked our first appointment with the lifetime guarantee.

    A few weeks later, Luis came into our lives. Luis genuinely wanted to understand all about Gadget, our time together, the experiences we had and the behaviors we wanted to address. It was clear he wanted to help us truly get as close as we could to the root causes and not just apply a bandaid to behaviors. He started by giving me better tools to understand what Gadget was going through and to make sure I was equipped with the right knowledge and tactics to address these things. Gadget took to Luis and what he was teaching both of us immediately. It is amazing what you can accomplish with Luis and how quickly you can see a difference. By the end of our first session we had both learned so much... With no treats, no toys, just genuine patience and understanding.

    We've now seen Luis 3 times and to be honest, the second and third time really have been more refreshers for me or opportunities to have Luis guide us through the best things to do in particular situations (also, both Gadget and I enjoy our time with Luis and the new things we learn that we get endless compliments on).

    In between sessions, Luis is also communicative and always willing to assist or offer insight when needed. Luis understands the bonds and wants to give you opportunities to truly build the relationship, without compromising personalities or ever putting your fur baby or you in any kind of distress.

    I cannot think of anyone better to help if you're dealing with reactivity and want to just help your pup (and you) live your best lives together. We're very grateful to Luis and his tactis - and proud of all we accomplished in our first visit and the fun we've gotten to have since!

    If you are looking for help in dealing with a challenging training situation with a puppy or adult dog, Kyle Milwit at Bark Busters should be the first person you call! We have a young puppy & wanted to head off some problems before they became major issues down the road. After just a short period of time with Kyle, utilizing the techniques he taught us, our puppy has done a complete turnaround with painful nipping & biting. It is amazing to see how effective the tools that Kyle gave us are working.
    The thing I really appreciate about Kyle’s training approach is that he clearly loves his work, loves dogs, & believes that all dogs just need to be taught what is expected of them. Once they are, & proper techniques are used, (no physical or harmful methods), dogs respond quickly. Kyle taught us that it’s all about “learning to speak dog!”

    Kyle was immediately responsive to us when we reached out, & followed up our in-home training session with additional videos & resources. I love that once you become a Bark Busters client, you’re a client for life for no additional cost. It’s also extremely helpful that all training is done in our home, in our puppy’s environment, so Kyle can see & address training issues where they occur, rather than in a class in a different setting. It’s also a huge help to be able to talk & text with Kyle as additional questions come up, to get reassurance & direction to address issues right away.

    Photo of Hercules We described our dog's behavior and shared the goals we wanted to accomplish with reactivity and Bark Busters gave us clear insight on how to be successful. Demonstrations were provided and we got the chance to apply those techniques on our dog ourselves with visible results!

    Carrie was amazing. Kind, thorough and explained the "why." Both my dogs had issues and we are 95% at consistent perfect behavior after one lesson. Cannot recommend more highly.

    Photo of Kodi We noticed an immediate change in Kody's behavior. Joshua was great at teaching us the proper body language and tone so our pup would understand. So happy we decided to work with Joshua!

    We recently had the opportunity to work with Jared. What a terrific trainer! The results we experienced with our dog Franklin far exceeded our greatest hopes. He is much more relaxed, responsive to us, and his behavioral issues with other dogs have mostly been resolved. Best of all, Jared shared his expertise with us to help us continue working effectively with Franklin on our own. Jared's love and understanding of dogs made all this possible. We recommend him highly!
