    John helped me address concerning behaviors with my dogs. Both of my dogs showed improvement at the end of the session. Will definitely recommend it to others.

    Tito and I learned more than expected from Ben, our Trainer.
    We know it will take time and consistency. Our family is already noticing a positive difference, more importantly, we believe Tito is going to be happier in his golden years.

    Mark's dog training expertise has truly transformed our relationship with our furry companion. His unique approach empowers us, as pet owners, to better comprehend our canine friends' perspectives. Through this understanding, we've been able to guide our dogs in harmonious cooperation rather than adversarial encounters.

    Prior to enrolling in Mark's program, our dog Duncan posed several challenges. He exhibited erratic behavior during walks, reacted poorly to new people, and engaged in biting incidents. As he transitioned into adulthood, these issues became increasingly alarming. Even after investing in a 3-week boarding training program and traditional retail lessons, we saw only marginal improvements.

    However, Mark's simple yet effective techniques have been a game-changer. After just one initial lesson, Duncan underwent a remarkable transformation. He now walks gracefully on the leash, refrains from barking or displaying aggression without reason, resists the urge to bolt out the front door, refrains from jumping, waits patiently at staircases until given the signal, responds promptly to recall commands, and has become an absolute delight to everyone he meets. He has blossomed into an absolute sweetheart.

    We wholeheartedly endorse Mark's training program. Equipped with the knowledge we've gained, we feel confident in our ability to address and overcome any dog-related challenges that may arise. This training has undeniably improved our dog's behavior and our overall quality of life. If you want to transform your canine companion into a well-behaved and delightful friend, Mark's guidance is the way to go.

    Client Google Review: "My pup and I have a better life thanks to Rachel and Betty Lou. They explain everything so well. It's simple and intuitive. It helps me understand and implement the training easily and with confidence. My 5-month old puppy has taken to the training exceptionally well and they have been so patient with me as we go through the training. Highly recommended!"

    Photo of Otto Josh gave me lots of tools and exercises to specifically address the issues I was having. I like the exercises that "build up" to the desired behavior. I feel much better equipped to get where we need to be, so we are both happy!

    Trainer Note:
    Great session with Otto today and his handler Rich! Otto responded very well, and Rich did a fantastic job of handling him. We addressed Otto's leash manners and separation anxiety. Now he has the tools and knowledge to continue Otto's improvement.

    Photo of Clark Josh was super informative and helped us be more assertive without feeling bad about hurting our relationship with our dog's relationship. He also encouraged us he is trainable.

    Trainer Note:
    Great lesson today with Alexis and her dog Clark. We addressed his separation anxiety and overall behavior. Clark responded very well, and I am very pleased.

    We rescued a dog from an overcrowded shelter that was picked up as a stray and transported here. I knew he would be a lot of work but had no idea to what degree. A few days after he arrived he started to bite his leash and show aggression during walks. He would bite his leash, jump up to try to bite me. It got to the point where I dreaded taking him outside (inside he was great). I thought about rehoming the dog. Enter Mariah. She was awesome! She showed me that I have to demonstrate leadership at all times. Inside the house, with meals, with exiting the door, etc. He was such a handful on walks and she managed to make all of it better! We worked on leash walking, getting the dog to focus (attentiveness training) and drop it, among other things. His behavior is so much better! Mariah was a lifesaver. She really does speak dog and really listened to my concerns. He is no longer biting or leash biting. We are still working on the pulling (he is a decent walker until he sees a squirrel or another dog), but I can say after just two sessions he is soooo much better. This is the beginning of our training and I already see real results. She also explained to me the breed I have really needs a lot of exercise and mental stimulation. She pointed me to a great dog park in the neighborhood and she's right - he is so much happier after a few hours of playing. Thank you so much Mariah and Bark Busters!

    Photo of Theo Joshua was professional patient, knowledgeable, and easy to be around. The session was clear and easy to follow. All my questions were answered, and josh took his time teaching me each step. I apricated the written handouts provided at the end to help me with the next couple weeks!

    Trainer Note:
    Great first session with Theo today! He responded well to our training techniques and quickly picked up on his leash manners. I am looking forward to his progress over the coming weeks.
