I am amazed at how fast Kira's behaviour has changed. She understand the "Bah" command very well. Steve was very helpful and patient. I was being trained also. The doorbell rang and Kira didn't even bark or come upstairs... Overall, I'm glad to have contacted Barkbusters. - Rosemary M.

Started noticing improvements right away! Although she has a long way to go, we are optimistic about her behavioural changes. We have already began to recommend bark busters to our family and friends! - Ian M. & Kara R.

Steve was excellent, he came in, and immediately identified what needed to happen to help Cocoa, Daisy & I solve our problems. The steps were clear & easy to follow, and other than Cocoa's occasional 'testing', the results are fantastic! Thank you for providing this service.
- Brenda C.

The trainer focused on all our behavioural concerns. Very thorough. Non-judgemental with the fact that we were ok with having the dog on the furniture. Steve let us make the rules and then showed us how to better enforce them and communicate with our puppy Sam.
-Cheryl R.

very helpful and friendly. Gave us new ways to approach some training problems we were having. over all very happy with bark busters. - Lisa & Bill G.

We were very pleased after our first session with Steve. He was helpful and took his time in helping us. There was a marked difference in Molly's barking immediately and although we intend on calling Steve back for a "refresher" as we have had some regression --although she is barking again, it's not like it was before. We appreciate that we are able to call back when necessary (feels like money well spent)... - Andrea and Ron D.

Life around our house has been so much better since Steve has been here and taught us how to properly train Maggie. This is a work in progress but I think she gets a little bit better every day. - Shannon and Shawn C.

Steve was really great. He came to my house with short-notice and I saw big improvements with my dog immediately... It is also nice to know that I can call and get additional assistance any time I need it... At least now I know that my dog can be well behaved...always, not just when he chooses to be. Thanks for your help! - Jennifer L.

Thanks. It has been 5 days but we see a big improvement already!!
- David M.

Bark Busters was amazing. Before Steve even left the house we saw the improvements. Most of the issues with our dog (9yrs old) and puppy (4 months old) were fixed that day... I would recommend Bark Busters to anyone who has ANY ISSUES with their dogs behavior.
- Simon

We were pleasantly surprised at how easy the steps to training our dog were for us. We are sticking to the training and so far Foley is a new dog. - Patti K.

We really learned a lot from you and you solved a lot of problems ...
- Tim A

Steve had the understanding to deal with Sumo and also us as the owner. He made us very comfortable to ask questions, unlike some trainers where they have the "Shut up & do as I say attitude". Steve was very knowledgable & professional. Thanks, Joe - Joe P.

We were very impressed with how quickly we noticed a significant improvement with Buddy. The system is easy to learn and just as easy to apply. Steve is an excellent therapist. He took the time to answer all of our questions. He presented as very knowledgeable and confident with the material and the training techniques. The training extended beyond new skills and behaviour for Buddy. In fact, we have learned a great deal. Steve, our therapist provided Buddy and both of us with new tools and techniques. We realize that there is a great deal of work ahead of us although with the very tangible results we have experienced to date, we are very easily motivated to continue with our homework exercises.
- Bill and Rita M.

A great experience thanks! - Beth C.

We were extremely pleased with the training session and methods. This is going to be a training program for us as well, as we recognize that we have to be consistent and dedicated for it to work. It has only been a few days but we've definitely seen progress. I would recommend Bark Busters most definitely! - Susan W.

I am totally amazed at this system. Bear lets out a couple of little barks when the mail person comes and that is it. So much better than the 15 minutes of barking she did before. Grizzly is just amazing now. A totally different dog. It's hard to imagine that one week ago he was in my truck and I was trying to get rid of him... You truly are a life saver. You have made it possible for Grizzly to stay in our pet loving home and you also saved my sanity. Thank you so much from our entire family. - Phyllis K. and Family

We were extremely pleased with the quick response to setting up our appointment.

Trisha you are a very good teacher. You made us feel like we've known you forever.

Steven, thank you for coming out on a Sunday to help us with our concerns. It helped us a great deal.

We are both so very happy that we called Bark Busters and have sung your praises to many. We would say that Abbey and Libby are 90% better already, 100% on their leads when we walk. - Lorne & Jackie M.

Steve was very informative. It was a lot to take in at once but we saw improvements with Buddy almost immediately - Crystal B.

Buddy suffered from separation anxiety to the extreme. We tried many things to help him but it seemed he was getting worse. I called Trisha with a lot of anxiety myself. Right away she calmed me down and told me buddy would be Ok. After working with Bark Busters program for a couple of months and Trisha and Steve going above the call of duty I am so happy to report Buddy is doing very well. He is much more relaxed while we are gone and overall he is a much happier & more playful Shihtzu. We will continue to use the tools we learned from Bark Busters so as to ensure a happy, healthy, well-rounded dog. Thank you Trisha and Steve for your dedication and for not giving up on us or Buddy. - Sheri W.

The same evening that Trisha came, we saw an improvement in Ryder. People who visit have commented that he is like a new dog. He still has issues but with the training we received from Bark Busters we know we can deal with them in a positive manner. Trisha even made a return trip to deal with a new issue and Ryder responded very quickly. Bark Busters/Trisha are AWESOME!! - Clare W.

We really appreciate all the helpful techniques and guides Trisha showed us. Bruno has shown a tremendous improvement in his behaviour. We are very thankful to Bark Busters for assisting us with Bruno! - Sofia C.

A very effective training method. We were surprised at how well our dog responded. Our dog continues to improve as we work with hi. - Cory B.

For the first time in the five years we've had our dog, we feel in control of our pet. The results are both remarkable and instant. This is a truly amazing program and we're so happy for having taken the training. Our dog is much happier too!! - Jeff & Margo C.

I love Trisha. She was the only person that had ever stood up to my dog. He had a very bad attitude problem and the vet told me I should put him down. But I called Trisha and she was amazing! If it wasn't for her I would no longer have my dog. Thank you SOOOO much Trisha. - Maureen H.

Chelsea has responded well to the training methods demonstrated to me on the initial date. She is now completely house trained, walks very obediently beside me every time we are out. The play biting, barking and jumping are at a minimum. I am still working on them but she does listen well and has improved every day. Thanks you Trish so very much. You have given me the chance to train Chelsea to be a lovable, precious pet. Thanks again. - Carol S - April 2006

Trisha - Thank you for helping us with Riley. You are a pleasure to work with. We can already see a difference in Riley's behaviour. Thanks again - Glenda G.

Trisha - You are extremely patient and knowledgeable. We enjoyed this new training experience and we are putting forth 100% to achieve all the wins we can. We can see improvement already in both Cody and Ally - June G.

Our dog is 12 years old. We have always had behavioural problems in the past. Completely changed dog in just 3 hours. We are very grateful for Trisha's help. - Allen & Margaret P.

I could not believe how quickly "Jersey" responded. I feel like she's finally becoming the dog I want her to be. Thanks Trisha! - Tara W. From Windsor, ON

We are very pleased with the progress we have observed already. Trisha was very thorough and made each of the training techniques easy to implement and understand.

Training all three of our dogs went incredibly smoothly with Trisha's firm yet understanding approach. We are grateful to have learned about and experienced the Bark Busters training program.

We look forward to recommending Bark Busters to our family and friends. - Christine and Wayne P. From Windsor, ON

I felt the training methods used were simple and easy. Our dog responded well to these methods. Coming to our home was a big plus. Overall, I'm very happy. Trisha was very upbeat and positive. - Colleen B. From Windsor, ON

"Spring" responded well to the first 3 hours of training. Stopped barking at people at the door. Trainer was very polite and easy to work with. I will recommend Bark Busters to other dog owners. - Mark P. From Windsor, ON

If it had note been for Bark Busters I would have had to return my Boxer "Chloe" to the breeder. Now, thanks to them and their effective methods, I can keep my "Chloe"! Excellent! - William R From Windsor, ON

Bark Busters' technique was very effective in dealing with my dog "Ranger's" over-exhuberant greetings when company came over and now it is a delight to walk him on a leash. I recommend this highly to all dog owners. - Maureen P. From Windsor, ON

Kiwi's barking was controlled on the first visit. We were amazed. When we took her for a walk, Kiwi did not run ahead of us. It was a nice controlled enjoyable walk. We are very happy that we called. Thanks Trisha! - Kim & Rick M.
