Bark Busters Home Dog Training

Was not a good experience! Had higher expectations for this training. Came on home talked for 20 min. Filled out papers every visit. Then showed you a lesson. Told you you had homework, then left. Thought they should have worked with the dog more. When i sent the company a letter that I did not want the same gentleman coming to my home. I was not happy with him. They sent my letter to the gentleman. They only have 1 trainer for the Monmouth area. A lifetime guarantee, is a lie. I get an email from the trainer whom I did not care for. That my contract was up and did not know what could be done. They should have more than one trainer in the Monmouth area. Also the company does not answer the phone you put in your zip code and the trainer calls you back. I would never recommend Barkbusters dog traininers !!!!

I hired Keith for help with my two Jack Russell Terrier Pugs. We were having all sorts of issues with our dogs. Things had gotten to the point where we could no longer have guests in our home because they dogs would attack them, and bark like mad when men, in particular, would try to move freely around our home. The dogs would bark at everything from the door bell, to people outside the window, other dogs in the neighborhood, for food, for attention, you name it, they barked at it. We couldn't eat a meal in peace, couldn't have friends over, couldn't go out for a walk in peace, walks had turned into full-fledged runs where I'd be pulled in twenty different directions chasing squirrels and other dogs. We were at our wits end. Thank goodness for Keith because after the first 3 hour session he educated us on how to properly communicate with our dogs and regain back the leadership we'd lost. He's since been back to our home a handful of times and has taught us how to walk the girls without being pulled around like we're manning a bunch of sleigh dogs. He's helped us to get the dogs to look to us for permission to go outside, to approach the front door, and to set the pace of our walks/runs. Guests can ring our doorbell now without the dogs going nuts. They can enter our house and walk around freely without being barked at or harassed. Our dogs no longer bark at everything. They play with other dogs outside. When they act out they seem to know they're in trouble. It's as if they a conscience. They'll actually separate themselves from the group as if to put themselves in time out. The transformation has been remarkable. I can't thank Keith enough. We plan to continue to work with him for as long as we need to knowing that the dogs will likely test us here and now. I'd hands down recommend Keith. The experience we've had with him has been life changing. I can't tell you how nice it is to have our lives back to where they were before the dogs took over.
