Bark Busters has changed our lives and given our two girls the best chance at life! We lost our family dogs at the ages of 12.5 and 15.5 within a year. We never thought about owning dogs again after losing both so closely together. One day our brother brought home a lab mix puppy from a bad situation and was going to be put down. We found out she had a sister and brought her home too. Soon we found that due to poor breeding and lack of training we had some out of control puppies. We went to a local store for training, it helped but we still had some behavioral issues to sort out. We went to our vet and were told to contact BarkBusters. We got in touch with BarkBusters and Justine and set up our first session. Since Justine has been in the picture we have noticed such a positive change in our girls and they have picked up the training very quickly. Justine is very knowledgeable and patient with their training. She’s given us the tools and resources to foster a good relationship and instill good habits in our girls. We have a ways to go, but I would highly recommend BarkBusters. Definitely worth the investment.

I was extremely impressed during my first session with Justine yesterday. She explained things in a very comprehensible and thorough manner and was a great listener as well. After discussing what my specific issues were, she created a homework assignment for me to practice in the coming week. I am to contact her with any questions or concerns I may have. I felt confident she will be there for me no matter what Maddie’s needs might be. I have already employed a couple of the techniques she recommended and I’m already seeing some results. I am anxious to continue practicing with the tools she gave me. I am hopeful this is going to create a very close and lasting bond with my puppy.

I have never been so confident or excited about a training program before. It is all broken down into steps and the home demonstrations were spot on. My husband and I are really excited about working with our pups! Knowing we have the tools and support of Justine for the life of our dogs is so comforting. Best training session by far. Justine has the heart, the knowledge and the experience.

Thank you, Justine! Our mini bernedoodle, Willis, is super active, barks a lot, demands our attention constantly and doesn't settle. It was so helpful to reframe our approach to training and practice drills around charging the door, jumping up and leash walking. Justine was very clear in her instructions, gave us helpful feedback and follow-up plans to keep our training going! We've already seen adjustments in Willis' behavior after just a couple of days and that makes everyone happier around here!

Incredible training session! My dog is an Australian Shepard rescue with a couple behavioral issues I'm trying to nip in the bud. In one session of a couple hours, Justine taught me a few simple ways to start to curb those issues. I was stunned! This is an incredible investment for anyone with fur babies. I can't wait to see what the next few weeks and months of work will do, if THIS is the change that I saw in just one day! Thank you so much Justine!

BEST TRAINING SESSION EVER.
I have had my two shih tzu-y rescue dogs for 10 years. I knew their barking, nipping, and bad behavior was because I am super lax with them and I don't want my poor fur babies ever to feel bad, so I let them be large and in charge. But their demanding barks were getting out of control.
Justine came over and taught me how my behavior was doing my doggies a disservice. In just one session, she taught me the appropriate commands to use for refocusing my dogs' attention and the barking ceased. I practiced Justine's technique, without supervision, while feeding them dinner and I was SHOCKED at how instantly they responded to the commands (and I didn't even perform them perfectly). I worked with other trainers, in the past, when my dogs were much younger but neither they nor I were interested in keeping up with what felt like boring and arduous training. Justine gave me simple techniques that my dogs responded to easily. I am confident we will all be able to keep up these skills and with consistent practice, I will have the most beautifully behaved pups. This is the best financial investment I have ever made for my dogs and for my sanity. So worth the price of admission!

Our nurturing, dog-friendly approach teaches you, the pet parent, the same natural communication methods that dogs understand instinctively. Our efficient, results-oriented, training program prioritizes clear communication and leadership while addressing issues in the locations they occur.

This means faster, longer-lasting solutions for you and your dog.

Dogs learn best in a familiar, safe environment, free of outside distractions and disruptions. That is why we come directly to your home, on your schedule to build an effective foundation for better behavior. We work first to build an effective foundation for better behavior. We teach you how to communicate with your dog. Dogs naturally live in families and look to their family leaders for guidance, safety, and love.

We teach you how to use friendly, canine leadership and to "speak dog" using your body language, voice tones, and timing so you and your dog communicate better! You will see results. You want to see a change in your dog’s behavior, preferably sooner rather than later.
