    The training session was extremely informative. Seeing Rosie's response was very promising and we are excited to see how well she does in the coming weeks. Thank you very much!

    I have two crazy dogs named Lucy and Leo that LOVE to bark their faces off. :) We have a big family with people in and out of the house a lot, so it can get loud quickly. The Bark Busters method is almost instantaneous. Stephanie was an amazing trainer. She was extremely kind and very knowledgeable. They do not use treats since it can affect your dog's respect level, which was news to me. Everything was communication based. My pug Leo has had issues with potty training in the past, and tearing up the furniture. We worked on managing the situation even when I'm gone. And my pit Lucy responded immediately to the leadership exercises with her barking. They also both used to pull on the leash, but now they walk behind me calmly. Bark Busters is like magic! The change we saw in just one training gave me hope for these little guys. I would 100% recommend Stephanie to anyone with dog behavior issues!

    Photo of Otto We reached out to bark busters when Otto started new concerning behaviors. We worked with Mariah and she listened to all of our concerns. She addressed thing with Otto we did not even know we’re a problem. For example we were feeding Otto food that the vet recommended and never even considered the food to not be fulfilling Ottos needs. Otto had a lot of work to do to master walking, not barking at the garage door opening, and jumping on new people, but Mariah gave us the tips we needed! We cannot wait to see Otto succeed with training.

    Photo of Otis, Tia, Seamus, Roxie,& Saydee I cannot say enough good things about Mariah and bark busters. They came into our lives when I was at my wits end. Our 2 male dogs were fighting very seriously ending up with 3 E V visits. I was given the tools to help me get us started on our way back to a healthy pack dynamic. I felt very confident that this was going to work and the dogs really responded to the training I was given. Unfortunately 3 weeks after our first visit I had to put my oldest (14) down. I lost confidence in myself and texted Mariah asking for help. She responded right away and we made an appointment for her to come back, see what was going on in the pack and help me get my confidence back. The dogs are responding very well to the tools and she gave me some great tips to help with our problem child Saydee (typical youngest). I can't thank Mariah and bark busters enough for getting my pack to best their best doggie selves.

    We were searching for a trainer for our dog, Doc (almost 3 years), who we adopted from a rescue when he was about 2 months old. Doc was always anxious and hyper, which we attributed to him being a rescue. His anxiety was getting worse, and his behavior becoming aggressive and biting at times. As he was not like this all of the time, we believed we just did not have the knowledge to properly correct his behaviors, so we searched the web for dog trainers. After a lot of research, my daughter found Keith and Bark Busters on the internet. When Keith came for the first session, he told us we would see a different dog that day. I did not believe him. He proved me wrong. Keith provided clear and direct instruction of how to correct our commands and leadership, so we could properly train and correct Doc's behavior. He was here less than an hour, and we saw Doc become submissive from commands we did; prior to Keith coming we had never seen Doc be submissive in the 2.5 plus years we had him. He responds to us much better and he is walking on a leash much better. He is not great at taking long walks on a leash, but we can have him take shorter walks, with much improvement than before Keith came. They key is consistency and continued training, even if it is something small each day. Keith left us with a folder of different training and information, which is very helpful in remembering the steps in the processes. The Bark Busters pack leader philosophy was just what our Doc needed. Doc is much more calm and responsive, and we get much more enjoyment training him now. We are so grateful to Keith and Bark Busters!

    Photo of Lola Robert Machi was great, calm approach. Lola's response to him was obvious to us. He was focused and presented training approaches with clear and precise method's His presentation of teaching us would make Lola’s response more positive. We would highly recommend Robert Machi to my friends and family.

    Right away in our first session Jodie put us at ease and quickly noticed that my anxious GSD was training me instead of the other way around. With a few tools, I’m now in control and Appa is calmer and happier.
