    We have 5 wiener dogs that were barking a ton, charging the fence, rushing the front door and marking all the time. It was like they just peed over each other all day on our furniture. Bill helped us see the underlying issues and gave us the tools to work on them. It has been hard work over the past couple months but now we have no marking inside, the barking is a ton better and they are perfect with door manners.

    Photo of Zoey / Chloe Solid first day. Was given several easy exercises to work on, already seeing results.

    Trainer Note:
    Chloe has found a new home for her; she is having some trouble getting along with her new sister. We went over establishing leadership, so the dogs have nothing to fight over. We are working on slowly integrating both dogs! They both responded very well today, and Mike was pleased.

    Photo of Jax / Rusty The training was informative and helpful. We feel positive that our dog's behavior will improve over time. Joshua is a calm and great trainer.

    Trainer Note:
    Jax and Rusty are great pups but are both struggling with on leash reactivity. They both responded very well during our first session. Rusty was calm for the first time with dogs walking by. We also addressed Rusty's separation anxiety. With Tim and Jacqueline being consistent they will continue to improve.

    Photo of Thor Awesome training!!! Super welcoming, our session began the moment she rang the doorbell! Definitely knowledgeable, loves animals and cares for their well being as a whole. She suggested food and supplies for his specific breed. By the time our session was done, Thor was exhausted but so responsive. Awesome experience

    We started working with Karina in late December and it changed our lives. We adopted a senior dog who came with some bad habits firmly established. Coco's barking and growling were out of control, and we had tried other training techniques and nothing was working. Karina came to our home and gave our whole family a training session. We keep in contact with Karina and continue to learn additional training techniques from her. We have learned so much from working with Karina and have seen great improvement in Coco's behavior. We are huge fans of Karina and Bark Busters. Coco too!!

    Photo of Roxy I’m blown away by the difference one visit with Robert Machi made with our Roxy!! Five minutes after he arrived I was able to stop Roxy from jumping on Robert and by the time the session ended I was able to walk Roxy without her pulling me down the street screaming at her to stop! I was also taught how to stop Roxy from running to get out the front door. I can honestly recommend Robert to anyone that needs help with their dog(s). I’m looking forward to having Robert come back for other issues with Roxy like letting my cat come and go without starting WWIII.

    Thank you so much. You guys did so well. Roxy is a sweetheart. I know she did beautifully but it's a slow process to make a permanent change so keep up the good work!

    Photo of Milo Calling Bark Busters was the best decision we could have possibly made. After only just one session with Michelle, we saw an immediate change in our 'pack' dynamic! Michelle helped us understand what was going on from Milo’s perspective and how to address issues in a manner dogs actually respond to. Our house overnight felt calmer and continues to this day - it's been such a relief. 

    For a dog that could not sleep in his crate a day in his life, Milo immediately slept through the night in the crate and didn't bark ONCE after our first session. We were shocked - we never thought this would be possible! Milo is also showing progress with strangers knocking our door / ringing the doorbell, which would previously set him off. Thanks to the exercises Michelle gave us, Milo now walks behind us in the house and with practice in just over 3 weeks he’s starting to do so out on the street on our walks (where there are lots of distractions!). instead pulling and charging ahead.

    We ALL feel a lot more relaxed (our cat, too!) and in control. We can’t recommend Michelle enough! We're looking forward to our next session!

    Trainer Note:
    Molly responded very well during our first training session. We worked threw her leash reactivity and basic obedience in the home. We also addressed the potty training and separation anxiety. With Kimberly continuing our techniques she will be a well-behaved pup.

    Photo of Bon My first training session was super informative in helping me understand my dog better and how to effectively communicate with her. I saw an immediate improvement throughout the session and am excited to see how much more she will improve in the coming weeks.

    Bon has found her a new home and is having some issues adjusting to the new environment. Jinny really enjoyed working with her today using our training techniques. We also addressed her separation anxiety as well. She is an awesome pup and will continue to improve over the coming weeks.
