While Gracie was a great dog and obedient, there were some areas that required immediate assistance. If I didn't see the almost immediate change in Gracie for myself, I wouldn't have thought it possible. And I am confident that if we have questions about any aspect of what we learned, Marc gave us several ways to get in touch with him. The key to this programs success 110% lies with my husband and I doing exactly what we were taught. By the end of the 3 hours, we new what we needed to do (with back up documentation provided to us) and have been diligent in following all the steps. Within minutes, Gracie's behavior changed. After that, he/we started to work directly with Gracie.

When Marc came to our home for our 3 hour session, the first 20-30 minutes was spent explaining the process and telling us what the key things were that we need to do and do CONSISTENTLY. When we first starting researching trainers, we watched the companies testimonials and were a little skeptical. We've been using the Bark Buster protocol for just a week. I am so happy with the results and would recommend Karen to anyone who has a dog that displays difficult behaviors. We are keeping up with the daily training and my family could not imagine sending him back to the shelter. My parents adore him and I just could not be happier with the results from the training. Now it is February 2022 and Little Bear is a completely different dog. The virtual sessions were extremely helpful along with all the protocols she would send and she was always available and easy to contact. She was always available even though I live on the West Coast and she is on the East Coast. When I contact Bark Busters they got me in contact with Karen who was a tremendous help. He was very energetic and nervous and would go after my family members to the point my family wanted me to return him to the shelter. He had some very difficult behaviors such as severe biting and jumping on us. He is a pitbull mix who had obviously been abused in his past life. I adopted my dog Little Bear back in October 2021 when he was only 8 months old. Karen from Bark Busters was amazing and I think she truly saved my dog's life.

Going forward, I feel sure that this method can easily be applied to any future dogs that join the family and I am extremely thankful for a completely non-violent, contact free means of maintaining control over the dogs. The order of dominance in the pack (We have four dogs: a Belgian Malinois and three corgi/border collies- all rescues.) with my husband, son and I as alphas was quickly established and has not faltered even a moment in the three weeks since training. It took Mark longer to describe the training method than it did to correct the behaviors. While our dogs were not what anyone would consider 'problem' dogs, this method immediately eliminated some basic issues we were having, including irritating non-stop barking at cars passing and strangers, somewhat aggressive treatment of strangers, chicken chasing, and issues with defining personal space. His training method is so simple and utilizes the dogs' natural pack instinct. I have worked with animals my entire life: horses, cows, goats, dogs, cats, and more, but I was confronted with my general ignorance when Mark came to work with our dogs. I know this will take time - realistically and a lot of repitition but I know it will be worth it! Thank you Bark Busters - can't wait to show you the results next time we see eachother. Also, walking them (1 at a time) was wonderful - zero pulling on the leash and when I did a specific command as the bicycle rider went by - my dog just sat and watched - that was amazing. Last night was our first time testing out new boundries, etc. The proper training techniques that Marc gave us during just the 1st visit really make me feel this will work. Although 2 of them were great - they were not trained the way they should have been and then bringing a 3rd into the mix who came off the streets we really needed help.

Yesterday I had Marc from Bark Busters come to our home to begin training our 3 dogs - a 4 year old Plott Hound Lab Mix, a 13 year old Basset Hound Cockerspaniel Mix, and a 2 year old Puerto Rican Street Dog (Mutt) - whom we just adopted at the end of May.
