Read What a Few of Our Clients Have to Say!

Bark Busters has been a worthy investment. We had reached a crossroads where we were going to take Frank back to the shelter or into our future. He had a fantastic skill of being able to ignore us, he displayed aggression and acted like he was king of our home. Mrs. Donovan stepped in and "busted" him! Frank now listens to every command and "asks permission" before attempting any behavior. In addition, we were able to subdue his aggressive tendencies by getting to the root of his issue: a bad past. We have accomplished all of our goals we set forth on our first meeting and are looking forward our future together with Frank. We will recommend Bark Busters to all of our friends and family. Thank you, Bark Busters!

Crystal is one of the best trainers that I have met. She is extremely effective and was able to solve the behavioral problems with our dogs in the first visit. We will definitely recommend Bark Busters to our relatives and friends.
-- Claudia Simpson, Receptionist, Pershing Oaks Animal Hospital, Orlando, Florida

Our HOA had forced us to use a shock collar for our beagle, Rocky. I was not comfortable with this and called Crystal with Bark Busters. She came out and educated us on pack leadership and how a dog thinks. Once she did this, we started understanding Rocky's behavior. She taught us how to get Rocky's focus on, Bark Busters is amazing and we now have a complete different outlook on how dogs think and how to be the leader. This is definitely a good program. We learned so much about Rocky and our own behavior and now have high hopes for our entire family. I recommend Bark Busters to everyone.
-- Michelle Cohen - University Animal Hospital, Orlando, Florida

I was beginning to think there was no hope for my 2-yr-old shih tzu. My other dog is very mild mannered, but Belle would go after anyone who went by our house. Before calling Bark Busters, I read all the testimonials and thought it was too good to be true, but after one lesson with Annette, I was convinced this would work. What I like about BB is the guarantee, the fact Annette came to the house and worked on my problems with Belle not like in a class. I was surprised in less than 6 weeks Belle is a delight and we are not embarrassed to have people over any more. Thanks, Annette.
-- Laurie Mullins, The Villages, Florida

Amazing! My dog, Hartley, is a dominant/aggressive basenji. This has been the only thing that has ever worked for myself and him. It is like having a different dog. Sanity was restored. I now have a dog that is a pet and a source of enjoyment rather than a menace. Thank you, Bark Busters!
-- June Barthelemy, Leesburg, Florida

From the moment Annette stepped out of the car, I was amazed. The results from the outset of training to the end, I again was amazed. Bark Buster techniques are very informative and simple to understand. Lacey's responsiveness was immediate this past week, although our little girl may need a follow-up session.
-- Donna Saitta, Lady Lake, Florida

Jodi is wonderful! She called to check up on Oscar's progress and has been incredible with all the information and help. I am against any form of physical punishment so the Bark Buster method was right up my alley. I found the presentation to be incredibly informative and Jodi to be knowledgeable and engaging.
-- Kate Sanders, Winter Park, Florida

My dog, Mac, seemed to be more subdued and was exhausted the first evening. From the viewpoint of a veterinarian, I found Jodi to be extremely professional and the Bark Busters techniques humane and common sense.
-- Edward Dworkin, DVM, Apopka, Florida

Jodi assisted us with the training of our new puppy and we were thrilled with the immediate results. She teaches the dog owners how to interact with the dog for lasting results, versus other approaches I have seen where the dog only responds to the trainer or treats and then reverts back to the original behavior when the treats are gone. In our case, she worked with the entire family (two adults and three children) to understand the dynamic with each family member and the dog. She further explained how each of us could/should interact with the dog to obtain optimal results, and it definitely worked. I also used Jodi after the initial training by calling her with questions. She was great about getting back with me and helping me with whatever situation came up! She has certainly helped make the transition of owning a new puppy easier for us and the dog! I would highly recommend Jodi to anyone looking to improve their relationship with their dog(s)!
-- Jennifer and Kevin Bird, Orlando, Florida

Jim Lory was excellent!!! Both Kristina and I were nervous at the start but Jim reassured us with examples and showed us how to handle things with our dogs. It was a GREAT EXPERIENCE and we'll be sure to recommend him to anyone who has dogs and needs assistance.
-- Todd G., Clermont, Florida

Jim is the best!! He is very easy going, down to earth, patient and easy to understand. My dog Merlin responded immediately to the training techniques. Thanks a lot and I will recommend Jim and Bark Busters to customers and friends.
-- Kris S. Employee, Winter Garden Animal Hospital, Minneola, Florida

Jim was amazing in explaining everything to me. The training was very interesting and I was involved the entire session. I couldn't believe the difference in my dogs' behavior and neither could my family. I am so very happy that I now have guidance and I know that I don't have to raise my voice or get upset with my dogs. Jim Lory is very good at what he does, and I now have such a good relationship and truly enjoy my dogs. I have already referred Jim to others and will continue to do so.
-- Amanda P. South Lake Animal League, Clermont, Florida

Terry is an excellent trainer and therapist. She did a great job working with Sir Peppi. He is a very active dog and needs training. He is also a rescue Yorkie. The natural training techniques were just great and helpful for me. The training experience was very helpful and understanding. I have had dogs all my life but I've learned new methods to use. I will be glad to talk to neighbors and people about your service.
-- Ginnie Lievens, Rockledge, Florida

Terry was very informative and patient! By the end of the training I had a different dog. It was amazing! It was easier than I thought it would be. I recommend Bark Busters to anyone who owns a dog!---Terry was very warm and friendly. I didn't feel intimidated at all!
-- Melissa Fayne, Cape Canaveral, Florida

My neighbors think I have a new dog because when we take a walk, he is calm. We walked by two strangers and he ignored them!
-- Janice Basile, Satellite Beach, Florida

I received my Australian shepard (Brady) through an individual looking for a good home for Brady. Along with Brady came Bark Busters and Mr. Mike Shamp. He came to our house on a Sunday and spent three hours with my family and me. I learned more in that first visit that the cumulative total of all information received my entire life. Mike's patience and passion for what he does captured my attention immediately, and Brady's instant response to my training from Bark Busters was extremely rewarding. Training from Bark Busters for us and consistency and love for Brady have made our dog more than man's best friend, he is FAMILY. Thank you, Bark Busters, and thank you, Mike Shamp!
-- Kenneth Binning, Deland, Florida

It is really quite easy, yet effective, especially getting her (Great Dane) not to pull while on leash & to sit and stay when someone knocks on the front door. I like the idea of not having to give treats all the time for good behavior. She gets praise for achieving good results. Easy system to follow I see results much quicker. Thank you, Mike. Even though Ella was always a good dog, we will be able to enjoy her even more since she has become more "mannerly."
-- Debbie Nelson, Longwood, Florida

Mike Shamp is very thorough. We learned a great deal and are very happy with the results. I have already told a neighbor.
-- Jackie G., Lake Mary, Florida

Pam was absolutely an amazing trainer and fabulous with my dog Baxter. She was patient but firm with him and really taught me a lot about dog mentality and how to easily live as his master. I would and have recommend ANYONE to Bark Busters.
-- Elizabeth Strobel, Palm Bay, Florida

Zeke explained everything in a way that every single one of us could understand. I think I was in shock. I had never had my dog listen to me so well. I was especially happy that the discipline was nothing more than a confident voice and a growl. I would have never imagined how excited I would be to train my dog. He was so responsive and grateful for the praise. Thank you for your help!!!
-- Laura Schaefer, Melbourne Beach, Florida

Both Pam and Zeke were very thorough in their explanation...I was very impressed at how quickly this method works....It is an easy method to learn and it has excellent results. I honestly didn't think that it would work with the amount of dogs I have. I was very surprised when it worked so quickly. I have 47 beagles and the barking was getting out of hand. Now at least I can have visitors at my house without the dogs jumping up and barking. I would recommend Bark Busters to anyone that has a dog with behavior problems. It really works!!
