Carrie's session was incredible! She was so knowledgable and her session was very informative. She demonstrated and explained everything very clearly. She was also very patient as I learned to apply the skills she was teaching. Absolutely recommend!

I highly recommend Jeri for in home training! She was so patient, and spoke in a way that I could understand when explaining what I needed to do. I love that we are learning to speak to Mize in a way that he understands, not using treats, simple direction and respect, us to him and him back to us!

I’ve had my dog for six years and previously worked with another trainer during that time, learning a great deal—especially about managing a reactive dog and navigating the unfortunate misconceptions that often come with having an American Pit Bull Terrier.
PermalinkWhen Miley and I moved in with my parents and their dog, we had the opportunity to work with Bonnie from Bark Busters. Working with Bonnie has been a wonderful experience. She reinforced much of the foundation we had already built while also introducing new techniques and perspectives that have made a real difference.
One of the biggest benefits of working with Bonnie is that her training is done in-home. Being able to observe how our dogs behaved in their own environment—and how they interacted with each other—was incredibly valuable. It also gave us the opportunity to practice real-life scenarios, like preparing for family and friends coming to visit, which made the training practical and immediately applicable.
Miley has a tendency to bark at anything walking or driving by outside, and Bonnie made a few simple but strategic recommendations that led to quick success. We saw improvement almost immediately. She also recently helped me transition to different walking tools, and our walks have noticeably improved as a result.
Beyond her expertise, Bonnie is always available as a resource outside of scheduled sessions. She listens without judgment and provides thoughtful, clear guidance. Her passion for dogs is obvious, and she truly cares about equipping owners with the right tools and knowledge to give their pets the best life possible.
Having worked with multiple trainers over the years, I can confidently and wholeheartedly recommend Bonnie and Bark Busters—especially for anyone navigating reactivity or multi-dog households.

Scott was great! He quickly identified what my six month old puppy needed to control his jumping up on people when they come into the house, how to best handle common distractions while out walking, and the best way to help with separation anxiety. He provided easy to follow next steps/homework for Wally and I to work on until our next lesson. Would recommend Bark Busters and Scott!

While I was in the process of selecting a trainer for our unruly and energetic border collie, I read many many reviews of other training programs. The reviews of Bark Buster were overwhelmingly positive and were a definite factor in my decision to choose them. Johnny the trainer came to our home personally, met our dog and sat with our family of five for an afternoon, during which time he covered a wide range of topics, including nutrition, exercise, communication and leadership. He demonstrated exercises and helped us practice techniques. We were very impressed with his manner and how our dog responded to him. I’m especially glad to know there will be follow up visits, a packet of information to refer to between training times, and a training schedule to follow daily. I cannot rate Bark busters highly enough.

It was a pleasure meeting Johnny! He’s an excellent trainer. He listened to everything we had to say. He’s very knowledgeable and professional! He took his time with us and answered all our questions without making us feel rushed! Overall, excellent experience!

Bark Busters is a great investment! Our boy Charlie is now a 1-year-old labradoodle, but we started getting training support for him at about 5 months old. Our trainer, Johnny, was so easy going and from our first session...it was apparent that he knew so much and loved dogs! Charlie developed rapport right away! We are still in the beginning of our journey in this training, but the simple commands and behavior responses we have learned so far have been a huge help! And the investment is for Charlies' LIFE! Our family gives our highest recommendation!

I got my dog as a puppy with no experience, and she unfortunately got attacked at 3 months old by an off-leash pomeranian. After that, she became fear-reactive with all dogs and developed anxiety, even going out of the house. My sister also got a puppy from the same litter, and he started becoming protective of my dog, but turned into aggression and biting. Johnny educated us so much on dog body language and overall behavior. He helped me find ways to increase my dogs confidence and encouraged me to let her work through the fear without me coming to "rescue" her right away. He also helped us understand how to handle our aggressive dog and redirect him. He even brought his dog on one of our training sessions so our reactive dogs can practice being neutral. We have been working with Johnny for a year now my dog is confident now, her recall is amazing, and she follows my lead. My sister's dog has not bitten anyone in 9 months. He doesn't pull on his leash when walking, and it's much easier to redirect him when he's barking at someone walking past our house. I really like how Johnny gave us two different training methods for both of our dogs specific to their needs.

My family cannot thank Johnny enough for his help. We adopted a rescue dog, we were told that he got along with cats. He and our 8-year-old cat did not get along. This was stressful for us because we had to keep the pets separated. We read books and tried everything but it wasn’t working. I called Bark Busters and they set me up with Johnny. Our prayers were answered. It has only been 5 days but the cat and the dog can be in the same room without chasing each other. We still have some work to do but Johnny’s strategies are working! We do our homework everyday and we are seeing changes!! 🐶❤️🐈
