Bark Busters Reviews

Look no further. If you go with Bark Busters, I promise you won't be disappointed. This is one of the best investments we've ever made. We rescued an 8 month old lab mix who had no training and was kept in a crate most of the day before he came to us. He was very sweet, but also VERY high energy, and with no training, it was a lot to handle. Bark Busters came highly recommended from a friend of ours, so we reached out. From the moment I spoke with Mark's team, I knew we'd be in good hands. I did research a few other local places before we decided to move forward with Mark, but hopefully this review can save you time from looking anywhere else. After hearing them referred to as the AAA for dogs (aka they are always there to help for the dog's lifetime), I figured we couldn't go wrong. Our first session was one week ago, and we are absolutely amazed with our pup's progress across the board. Before Bark Busters, Coal was pretty unpredictable - he would jump on us when we came into the room and bark when we left the room; he jumped over the couch and ran over anyone sitting on the couch; he chased and barked at our cat; and he'd jump up on the counters and beg when we ate meals. And all of this was while he was on trazadone as he recovered from his neuter from the shelter. I was starting to second guess our decision to get a dog. The results from our first session with Mark were immediate. Since that session, he hasn’t jumped once. He stays out of the kitchen, ignores the cat (they even eat next to each other!), and he only gets on the couch when he's invited to go to his "place". It’s incredible. Mark takes the time to give you background on the approach, show you why it works, and answer any questions you have. He provides training aids, but we haven't had to use them. And while I personally believe Mark to be a magician, you have to commit to your dog. If you read the materials and put in the time working with your dog, you will see the results you want. Added bonus: the bond that grows between you and your dog with this method really is amazing. I was skeptical that we'd really see any change after one session, but I was dead wrong - we saw change, and it all stuck.

Excellent Dog Trainer! We cannot say enough wonderful things about our dog trainer-from the very first session, it was clear that we were working with someone who truly understands dogs — and their people, too.
His knowledge, patience, and calm confidence made such a difference for us and for our pup. What once felt overwhelming quickly became manageable, and we began seeing positive changes immediately.
Our dog is happier, more responsive, and so much more confident — and so are we. The guidance we received gave us tools and understanding that will benefit us for years to come.
If you are looking for a trainer who is skilled, compassionate, reliable, and genuinely invested in your success, look no further. We are incredibly grateful and wholeheartedly recommend Ryan! 🐾

Scot was really great with our dogs! We saw a lot of improvement with our dog’s anxious behaviors within 10 minutes and he taught us a great toolset to make sure that improvement continues. Scot was very personable and gave detailed explanations for everything he did.

We were informed on dog behavior issues and trained to understand and respond accordingly. Our trainer Amber was so efficient and accomplished handling our dog Peaches. We are very pleased with our time spent with Amber.
