Home Dog Training in East Orange County, CA!

At Bark Busters, we clear up the miscommunication between dogs and humans at the root of many behavioral issues by teaching everyone to speak the same language – dog!

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.

I am Johnny, your Bark Busters dog trainer in East Orange County. 

A number of years ago, I was being interviewed at Verizon for a position within the Risk Management Department and the hiring Director asked me, “If you could have any career and do anything, what would it be?" At the time, my answer was to open a dog rescue. It had nothing to do with the job I was applying for, but it was the most honest answer I could give.

I have grown up around and with dogs my entire life. I truly appreciate the companionship and bond between a dog and its owner. My dogs are truly my best friends.

Although Bark Busters is not a rescue organization, our efforts to partner with our clients to help owners and their dogs live happier lives together truly has saved thousands of lives!  

I first came to know Bark Busters as a client! My parents hired Bark Busters Home Dog Training to help them with their two Golden Retrievers. Watching Bark Busters methods in action and seeing the difference in my parents life with their dogs is what ultimately led me to become a Bark Busters dog trainer myself. I look forward to the opportunity to have a similar impact in your life with your dog.

Johnny Jumper was awesome and definitely made a difference in my sweet angelic dog Enzo just after the first session 😃♥️ He was clear in the fact that it’s a joint effort and I have a job to do as well. Consistency is key! I highly suggest Johnny Jumper! 😃 …

If you're having trouble deciding which dog trainer to commit to, you'll be happy you went with Bark Busters. I've tried out 4 dog trainers/training systems with varying models and strategies for dog training and I feel I am progressing the most with Johnny.

1. I like that Johnny's solutions are based on how to communicate clearly with your dog. So I don't feel like I have to be perfect when I'm working with Geralt. I just have to figure out how to be clear and effective
2. I like that the lessons are at my level. I had a dog trainer who was trying to do something unconventional and unique to stand out in the market and the lessons were SO difficult, they actually caused strife in my household. Those concepts were interesting, but were very difficult for a not full time dog trainer to implement.
3. All the homework has helped me bond with my dog, improved all aspects of our daily activities, and has not felt burdensome/difficult
4. I like also that Johnny contemplates my dog's preferences and personality, so we break lessons down according to how my dog is responding.
5. Johnny is also professional, comes on time, communicates well, and is very respectful

I have so many pawsitive things to say, I can go on and on and this is after only 2 lessons!!! I feel very hopeful about this investment and am even more excited about how my relationship with my dog will blossom and grow.

WOW!!! We cannot say enough AWESOME GREAT THINGS about Johnny Jumper and Bark Busters. We had pretty heavy issues. My Mom moved in with us and we had 5 yorkies (two were a mix). Mom has sonic hearing and couldn't stand our dogs (especially the one girls) bark. We had our front living area fenced in to keep the dogs from running to the door every time someone came over, or left the house. We just added on to our house and the fencing for the dogs took away from the beauty of our home. The one dog would be the worst in barking uncontrollably and jumping on everyone who came in the house. Plus they would run out the door when it opened. There wasn't much peace at all. So let me tell you what has changed NOW.... We don't have our living area fenced in with a gate all around. We have learned to train the dogs to wait off the landing. NOW when anyone comes over the dogs do not bark and they wait off of the landing until we release them and then they nicely come up to you withOUT jumping on you to greet you. It is so much nicer. My Mom is so much happier and we are happier. The dogs are more calm with the rules and training we have learned. We have also learned to walk them on a loose leash and learned to give them free time. We learned how to call them to come to us on command and this has helped with bringing them in the house. They do not go out the door or come into our room or come out of their bed area until we release them. It is so much nicer and happier and we are forever grateful for the time and patience that Johnny from Bark Busters has given us. He even checks up on us to make sure we are doing ok. Thank you more than words could ever express. Gods Blessings to all.

I was cautiously optimistic about hiring Bark Busters to train our beloved beasts, as I am very instant gratification minded. But after the first hour they were obeying commands I thought only possible in my dreams! It was worth every dollar and every minute spent with Johnny and i will recommend them to everyone I know with pups! We had barking door bell alarms, counter surfing and potty training along with some personal space issues that we feel confident now will quickly be resolved. Our dogs are 3 and 9 respectively so its never too late to teach an old dog new tricks! I’m a full believer and supporter of Bark Busters!

Johnny was great! He took the time to explain everything to us. He was very easy to understand and willing to answer any questions we had. He tailored the training session to our dog and his needs and made sure we were all comfortable. He was great with our dog, and we are already seeing improvements. We couldn’t be happier and would recommend him to anybody!

since working with, both dogs seem even happier than they were before and it’s only been a couple days. For anyone considering it, dogs really are happier with structure and the mental stimulation does truly help them not have pent up energy. Just 15 minutes a day of training and these dogs pass out for hours.

When we rescued our girl Olive in 2020, she was very shy and timid. She was terrified to walk over manhole covers and wouldn't really take treats from us. We wanted to get a trainer who was more of a behavioralist, and we stumbled upon Bark Busters. We were matched up with Johnny and he has been so great to work with! He possesses not only a deep understanding of dog behavior but also a genuine passion for helping dogs and their owners establish a happy and healthy relationship.

Johnny is so good at educating the owner as much as training the dog. He's always available to answer questions and provide support. For anyone seeking a knowledgeable, compassionate, and effective dog trainer, I cannot recommend Johnny highly enough. Olive doesn't think twice when crossing a manhole cover!

Reached out for assistance from Bark Buster’s regarding our recently acquired dog from the animal shelter.

Yesterday, Johnny arrived to train “us” on training our dog. He stayed with us longer than what was allocated, allowing us to work through some behavioral problems.

When he left, we felt confident in being the pack leaders to him with all the training tools he showed and gave us.

This morning, after a goodnight of sleep, our dog who was mentally drained from his training, was tested with the “boundary” and “leave” tools provided.

We were successful with the early results and could not be happier with our decision to use Bark Buster’s and Johnny.

With the continued training for our dog and follow up from Johnny, we feel confident moving forward that we will be better pet owners, and our dog will be happier knowing he is a part of our pack.

We reached out to Johnny after getting a rescue dog that was ruling the roost. We were struggling to integrate him with our cat, despite being told that he got along with felines. Our new Mastiff /Great Dane mix was jumping on top of kitchen counters, stealing all food in sight, chasing our cat with a few scary snaps and we'd even suffered several walking injuries from him darting towards animals. (We've had several dogs in the past and consider ourselves athletic, this was just a whole new level of new-pup excitement). Johnny came to the rescue, giving us the skills we needed to tame our boy, and take him from Kujo to Clifford.

In all seriousness, Johnny is extremely knowledgeable and I would recommend him for any training needs, especially when you see the sweetness in a new pet and just need support gaining control. We've met with Johnny several times, and it never feels rushed. He answers every question while in person or through texts and asks just the right questions to get down to the cause of the behavior in order to create a custom plan to correct it. He is not a one-size-fits-all, do-the-same-thing-for-every-client kind of trainer. He truly listens, checks in on progress and gives actionable suggestions that will make you and your pet enjoy each other so much more. Until he came around, we seriously questioned it our new pup would be a fit. Thankfully, our house is much calmer these days. Thank you so much, Johnny!

We had just adopted our rescue Bichon, Missy, only two weeks before calling Johnny @ Bark Busters. On his initial visit, he first took the time to get to know Missy and listen to what our issues were. We then went over each issue with Johnny and Missy, then on our own. We were surprised when our session went way over the estimated time, but Johnny understood what we needed to get through before he left us, and we did. We have seen tremendous improvement with Missy, and are almost to the point of scheduling our second session.
We would recommend Bark Busters and especially Johnny Jumper for anyone who has a dog with issues, or needs behavioral work.

We LOVE Bark Busters. We had used them once before when we lived in a different state. When we moved, Bark Busters was right there to help us re-train our older dog in his new environment. The BEST thing about Bark Busters is that it is a ONE-TIME fee for the life of your dog. For the life of your dog you can call BB at any stage and they will be there to help. As I said earlier, we used BB in a different state, we moved, called them and they sent a new trainer.

Now that we have a brand new puppy (my gawd we forgot how much work they can be! :)) Johnny @ Bark Busters has been amazing helping us set appropriate expectations, training tips, etc. He even will help us via text between appointments, which has been not only helpful, but like having an extra support system as we are navigating puppy-hood again! We are forever grateful for him and look forward to our training appts. He never rushes an appointment and always listens to all our concerns and crazy questions and takes the time to answer them all! Highly recommend!

Johnny has been essential to our understanding of our girl Pepper. He is always quick to response and flexible with his schedule for training. He has given us tools to better manage our dogs stubborn nature and encourage her positive behavior. Pepper has become a better family pup thanks to the skills Johnny has taught us and we are so grateful for his knowledge and support throughout our puppy training adventure.

Johnny Jumper is AMAZING!!! He is the "Cesar Millan" of Orange County. Our dog Bear showed significant improvement after just one training visit. Johnny is professional and always goes above and beyond for his clients. Our dog has continued to grow and thrive due to Johnny's training/leadership. I highly recommend Johnny and Bark Busters. We are very happy with the results.

I feel so fortunate to have met Johnny. His love and respect for dogs is clear, as are his teaching methods. It was amazing to see an immediate effect, the dogs understood his communication style and quickly responded to him. He is patient, and takes the time to listen and understand the family dynamics and prioritization needs for behavior modifications. Even after my two dogs were passed out from over an hour of mental stimulation, Johnny stayed longer to work with me and give me guidance for other things to work on before our next session. I have already recommended him to several friends and neighbors, it is money well spent to enroll in this program especially if you are fortunate enough to be in Johnny's service area! 5 stars aren't enough to express how awesome he is!

I have an 18-month-old Aussiedoodle that I call my giant fluffy monster. Between moving around a lot, an unexpected health crisis, and lockdown, I wasn't able to be consistent with his training. His anxious behavior came off as aggressive and his barking felt out of control. After the first session with Johnny, not only did I notice a huge improvement in my dog's behavior, but I felt more capable as a caretaker and leader for my dog. I highly recommend Johnny to any dog owner who feels out of their league in training their dog!

Johnny has been great for our pup Mochi. He came yesterday for a follow up visit and has been very patient with him. He hasn't made our sessions feel rushed and is passionate about helping you with your dog. He listens to the concerns that we had to address them first. If you are worried about paying a flat fee and feeling like you're going to get a trainer that is going to dodge you, this has not been something we have experienced with Johnny. He takes pride in his work and it shows! Looking forward to more training as Mochi is about 5 months old and displaying new behaviors each week.
