    Photo of Meisha It was great meeting with Deb. She was so informative about how train our puppy. We have raised several dogs from puppies, but Deb put everything into perspective. All of the information that she shared with us made so much sense. Our puppy is a Shiba Inu with lots of energy, an attitude, and a huge personality. Deb was able to get our pup to respond to her immediately with some of the training techniques.
    We looked at several training options. After meeting with Deb, we are 100% sure that we made the best choice possible. We are looking forward to working with her.

    Photo of Kate I have a min pin who barked all the time at anything. I knew that Kate saw herself as the alpha of the pack and nothing I did was successful. I decided to give Bark Busters a try. Deb helped me understand how to speak dog and exactly what I needed! After the first session the barking was very much under control and Kate knew I was the leader and not her! After our second lesson I can now take Kate for walk and I am the leader instead of Kate dragging me down the street at her pace. Barking at others or dogs on our walks has also subsided. Deb is amazing and I can't say enough good things about her knowledge of dogs. My house is more peaceful and I believe Kate is happy that I have stepped into the alpha role and me too! Deb also provided training tools and a special harness for Kate that helped assure immediate success with barking!!!! This program is worth every penny I paid!

    Photo of Stella & Foggy Deb is incredibly helpful as a dog trainer and uses a system that really works! My husband and I are already pretty well versed in dogs, but something about the dynamic of the two we have now--barking at the door and windows, jumping on guests, even to the point of fighting with each other--we couldn't get a handle on. Deb came in and brought an expert outside perspective to our situation that has completely changed the stressful dynamic of the house. We've so appreciated the resources offered, the follow up texts, and the simple way to track what we should practice. By applying these trainings, already after just two sessions, our dogs are so much calmer and more obedient and we've taken back control of the house. I would 100% recommend Deb to anyone who has a difficult dog/s. If you listen to her and do the practice, you will absolutely see results.

    Photo of Jax, Dexter, Phoenix We are blown away by how effective Orlando's techniques were. He explained things in a clear way, and completely changed the way we saw our role in our dog's life. We are very pleased with the results.

    Sharon was absolutely the best for our little Sadie. Sadie found us after spending several months in the humane society and another shelter before. It was love at first sight. She was the missing piece for me and my husband.

    Once we got home we noticed although Sadie is very smart she had a few manners to learn to help me feel more at home. We reached out to Sharon after a recommendation from our vet tech. We did our initial phone consultation and I immediately knew it was going to be a good fit.

    The day of our first training session came and we learned so many new things in terms of how we help our Sadie to understand she does not have to be our packs leader, me and my husband will take care of those things.

    We worked on some leash walking and she was really catching on quickly our little Sadie is so smart! After our initial training when we went on a walk that evening she did so well. Remembering some of the new rules that mom and dad will lead the walk.

    Training your pet is never cheap or easy. In this case you’re not just training your pet but yourself to allow them to relax. My husband and I are so happy with every penny spent helping our Sadie be able to relax and just follow along. We can’t wait to continue doing our homework and schedule follow up visits as needed. Thank you so much Sharon for helping us set our Sadie up for success.

    I am thrilled with Bark Busters and with my trainer, Kevin. Although I've had dogs my whole life, I never trained a dog, and I was a little afraid of doing it. I lost my 15-year-old Cocker Spaniel a year ago and got a puppy quickly. Joey is a pure-bred Cocker Spaniel--he is emotional, gorgeous, and loving, but he is a handful!

    Kevin has provided me with a ton of innovative information, approaches, and tasks to train Joey, and they are working!

    My family and I see the improvement! The methods work by using sounds that a dog naturally responds to.

    There are many trainers in Los Angeles, so the information alone is insufficient. I am an intuitive person, and Kevin is kind and understands human and dog nature!

    I feel comfortable sharing what is hard for me with Joey. He responds quickly with new ideas, humor, and patience. I consider him a friend of my family.

    Joey and I are in great hands, as problems come up, and as Joey grows.

    I'm grateful and relieved that I found the right company and person for me and Joey.

    If you need dog training, make sure to call Bark Busters of Greater Los Angeles!

    Life-Changing Training for Both Me and Arlo!

    I can't say enough great things about Bark Busters and Omar! In just one month, the transformation in my dog Arlo has been incredible. He went from being an anxious, barking mess who needed everything on his terms, to a calm, relaxed pup who seems genuinely at peace.

    What surprised me the most is how much tension Arlo was holding—I didn’t even realize it until I saw how calm he is now. The best part? This training isn't based on food or treats. Instead, Omar gave me the tools to build a healthy, long-lasting bond with Arlo that's rooted in communication and mutual respect.

    Omar has been patient, kind, and explains things in a way that really makes sense to me. He doesn’t just tell me what to do—he helps me understand why it matters and how it impacts Arlo’s behavior. It’s been empowering as a dog owner.

    This experience has absolutely been worth the time, effort, and money. If your dog is struggling, don’t wait—call Omar at Bark Busters. You won’t regret it!
