WOW! Amanda came out and within the first session, my dogs responded perfectly! I was ready to rehome them because I was frustrated with their behavior and no clue what to do. A trainer was my last resort, and Bark Buster’s called me back promptly and put us on the schedule. Amanda talked with us for a long time to understand what was going on and what my goals were. She taught me to talk to them like a dog not a human and immediately they responded! I’m in love with my dogs again❤️ Worth the call and money!
Amanda is a God send!! We have had continual issues with our dogs and we have had multiple trainers either not believe us or provide guidance that did not prove effective. We were desperate for change and Amanda provided that. After the first session we had tools to address the biggest issues with our dog and felt like we had control once again. I also love that her service is more than just a few training sessions, we can message her for questions and there are scheduled pack walks every week.
We are absolutely thrilled with Amanda and the incredible transformation she has brought to our home! Our seven-year-old vet and our five-month-old rescue were having a tough time adjusting to our household dynamics, but after just a few lessons with Amanda, we've seen remarkable improvements. The dogs have responded beautifully to her training methods—what's even more impressive is that they're following direction without needing treats as a motivator!
Thanks to Amanda’s expert guidance, both our pups are now able to coexist peacefully with our small children, which was a real challenge before. On top of her expertise, Amanda has such a fun and engaging personality that makes the whole process enjoyable. She’s not just a fantastic dog trainer, but also someone who truly makes the experience feel like a partnership.
We’re so grateful for her help and highly recommend her to anyone looking to strengthen the bond between their dogs and family!
I have an amazing dog, really. But, we had an issue with manners, boundaries and walking. The first session we had with Amanda, teddy wasn't as involved. She took time with the family unit to understand our dynamics and how we interact with not only each other but with Teddy. I love how she called out human behavior that impacts a dogs stability and made real (and realistic) recommendations that made such a huge impact in the first session. I mean, I feel like I have a lot more power in my household and boundaries while still loving my Teddy as intensely as I do. We have our next session tomorrow and I can't tell you how excited I am to hit the next milestone under her direction. Are you thinking about getting a dog trainer? Call her. She's amazing.
Amanda was very attentive and thorough. I have two rescues dogs with aggression and hyperactivity issues.the initial intake was very thorough and she assessed all of the needs of the household. Quite a bit of initial tips and lessons were given to control my dogs hyperactivity issues. I can already see the results. I look forward to ongoing sessions and support. I highly recommend her.
I started using Bark Busters Dog Training in 2018 after my dog and I were attacked by an off leash dog while on a walk. It was a traumatizing experience for both of us and we desperately needed help with walking/leash training after the incident. Our trainer not only helped rehabilitate my pup, but me as well and we couldn’t feel more grateful. Recently, my dog started having issues with separation anxiety and marking in the house, so I gave Bark Busters a call. When I called, they still have my information on file (6 years later). I set up a follow-up visit a week later, free of charge. Bark Busters dog training truly offers lifetime support. Our new trainer, Amanda was warm, friendly, and energetic and it was evident that my dogs loved her energy. I’ve noticed improvement in my dog’s current issues only a week after Amanda’s visit and we look forward to continuing to work with her.
I can't express enough gratitude for the phenomenal work done by Amanda. After years of struggling with my 7-year-old doodle's reactivity, I had almost given up hope on the possibility of her being able to walk by another dog without lunging, barking, and/or growling. Prior to reaching out to Amanda, I had spent years working with other trainers and put my dog through numerous training programs, all of which showed minimal, short-term improvements at best and never addressed the root cause of her behavioral issues. When Amanda came to my home it was clear that she is extremely passionate about her work and genuinely cares about helping dogs along with their owners. I immediately felt like I could trust her and it was obvious that she has a deep understanding of dog behavior and psychology. Amanda is the only trainer that has been able to significantly reduce my dog’s reactivity and this change has been long-lasting. I no longer worry about taking her for walks in crowded parks around lots of other dogs, which is something I never thought would be possible. If you're struggling with your furry friend's behavior, I wholeheartedly recommend reaching out to Amanda. Trust me; you won't regret it. I am eternally grateful for her expertise, kindness, and the life-changing impact she's had on me and my dog.
Jill was very reactive when on leash for other dogs. It was a constant struggle on walks. We met Amanda in the mid-afternoon and joined her Pack walk later in the evening. Jill was a transformed dog. There were ~10 dogs around, and she was focused on me and barely looked at another dog. Amanda helped me take my little mutt go from a crazy to calm in just a few hours. We will keep practicing her training instructions so that we continue to reinforce the improvements.
If you’re reading this as a frustrated dog parent, look no further for any other trainer/ company. Absolutely go with Bark Busters!
Amanda, our trainer is a genius. She showed me this video of a mama dog correcting her pups
and this is what the leader of the pack (me) does. I’m basically mama grunting at them when they do anything out of line or any thing I want to correct. Amanda is super cool and personable and can show you so many ways to get your dogs in line. There’s obviously more to it than just grunting so make you’re appointment with this company!!! My dogs are happier dogs! My dogs don’t have anxiety and IIIIIIIIII don’t have anxiety. I can enjoy my dogs now!
It’s crazy. It’s totally working! No treat or punish training.
My Cooper is not fear barking and lunging at people and my other dog Hunny isn’t separation anxiety barking outside when she can’t see me.
It took one water spray and a grunt before she came inside; I closed the door again and she quietly, patiently waited to come in until I let her.
Some dogs are a little more stubborn (cooper has been surprisingly) but it’s working. Hunny fell in line immediately.
My dogs aren’t CRAZY! Amanda and I are working on leash training in 2 weeks. Potty/ crate training rn. No more pee pads.
