We called Bark Busters because our two male dogs got into a few fights and it was causing the whole family to be on edge since we didn't know how to handle it. We never considered a training program like this before but we are so happy we found them. Cassidy came to our house for our initial session last night and we have already seen a difference. It's a whole new mindset for us to wrap our heads around but for the first time in months, I am hopeful that our three dogs will be able to live happily together again. We are very much looking forward to seeing the progress that we can make with Bark Busters guiding us.

After just one session Mike with his zen like training methods has given us the tools to start an enjoyable living situation with our dogs . He has shown us how to lead our "pack" with skills and knowledge we did not have before . We couldn't believe the difference in their behavior after just one session and we tried everything before .No treats, no aggression , no harsh tactics .. he has a knowledge of dog language that is quite amazing .. We are so excited to incorporate the skills that he has shown us they are already more calm and responsive to us . We are so grateful to have found this trainer and look forward to working with him . If you have any doubts let them be gone he's the real deal .

Miracle worker. I was always skeptical of rigid training because I had this sort of hippie mindset that I didn't want my dog to be a robot, I wanted them to be a dog. And a happy one.
Mike has a perfect approach toward training in which he teaches you to essentially "speak dog", both verbally and nonverbally. He actually taught me that my dog was LESS happy thinking they need to be constantly on edge, protecting me.
Thanks to him we've raised our 4 year old with pitbulls and not once have had to even consider worrying. On top of that, he goes above and beyond to help with nutrition, health, dental health, socialization and beyond.
Google needs to add a 10-star option for people like Mike.
Take it from someone who hated every trainer they met except one - Mike is the one.

Amazing Results After Just One Session!
I had the pleasure of working with Cassidy for just one session, and I am beyond impressed! My dog has struggled with jumping on my grandkids and barking incessantly, and I wasn’t sure how much could be achieved in just one visit. But Cassidy exceeded all expectations!
Her training techniques were easy to understand and incredibly effective, and her coaching style was encouraging and supportive. Thanks to her expertise, my dog has almost completely stopped jumping on the grandkids and has dramatically reduced barking. I’m amazed by the quick improvement and can’t wait to see how much further my dog will progress. Cassidy is a fantastic trainer, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking to improve their dog's behavior!

Bark Busters are wonderful, highly recommend! They have really done a great job with our puppy and helping us get set up with her at home. Their training techniques are not only effective, but also kind to the dog. We saw immediate results with our dog’s behavior and we felt so much more comfortable after working with Bark Busters!
