Our dog is reactive, and we were honestly shocked at how quickly her techniques started working. She explained things in a way that actually made sense, focused on helping our dog feel safe, and even stayed longer to help us practice around other dogs. We left feeling way more confident and hopeful. Highly recommend her if you have a sensitive or reactive pup. Also, Heidi is incredibly funny, so it was a great time!

Scott is amazing, and we can't recommend Chill Out Dog Training enough!…read more We adopted a 9 month old, 80 lb (now 110 lb) golden retriever from a local rescue in mid-2023. A complete contrast to our older collie/aussie mix, he was full of energy and naughtiness (a puppy), and a nightmare to control. Prior to being surrendered by his (previous) family, he went through two weeks of out of home boarding/training, costing upwards of $7,000. We thought this would have helped with obedience, but boy were we wrong. Fast forward two and a half years, sessions with a certified behaviorist, and failed attempts to use an e-collar, we were at a loss. He constantly displayed leash reactivity, would lunge at cars and dogs, and made it so we would rarely walk anywhere. He almost broke my finger during a break free lunge at a dog completely across a residential street! At home, dog forbid another animal appeared on the tv; he would jump and bark at everything. Then we found Chill Out... After the very first session with Scott, our big boy golden was a different dog. Scott set is up with the right tools to refocus our dogs behavior and break him of his leash reactivity. That very first walk was pleasant and uneventful. We almost felt foolish for claiming bad behavior. What we needed was the right trainer and methods to help our dog change behavior. Like I said at the beginning, I can't recommend Chill Out Training enough.

She treats Ruby like her own while also making sure I feel confident and fully equipped with the tools and understanding I need to continue her success at home. The board and train sessions are exactly what we need and are always grounded in real-life situations, so the training translates seamlessly into everyday life. I trust Ruby and her training completely and genuinely love the relationship and foundation Quinn has helped build for both of us--we are so grateful for everything she has done for Ruby and me in helping shape a happy, well-trained Golden.

They completed a two‑week boarding school followed by five follow‑up sessions, and the results have been fantastic. Quinn was professional, knowledgeable, and truly invested in our dogs' success. She did a great job not only training Nash and Parker, but also teaching us how to maintain and build on what they learned once they came home. The follow‑up sessions were incredibly helpful and showed how much she cares about long‑term results, not just quick fixes. We saw noticeable improvements in behavior, responsiveness, and overall confidence in both dogs. It's clear Quinn is passionate about what she does, and we felt comfortable knowing our dogs were in great hands. I would highly recommend Quinn to anyone looking for a skilled and dedicated dog trainer

They are incredibly knowledgeable and, most importantly, they are kind and non-judgmental. It's rare to find a team that cares just as much about the owner's well-being as they do the patient's. I wouldn't trust anyone else with my bird's care. They consistently go above and beyond, providing a level of personal attentiveness and thoroughness that makes it clear they are truly invested in my bird's well-being. Ray & Hannah are professional and friendly and make me feel like I'm not just a number walking through the door. What I appreciate above all else is the deep compassion and heart they put into their work. As a bird owner, it is so easy to feel anxious or judged when seeking care, but this team provides a completely judgment-free environment. They have shown such genuine kindness to me and such incredible gentleness toward my bird. It's clear that they aren't just doing a job--they truly care about our well-being and making sure we both feel supported through every step of the process.

What would I have done without Jenny?!? By unforseen circumstances we found ourselves with an…read moreabused and abandoned puppy mill puppy. His behavior and fear far exceeded anything I could manage on my own, as nothing I did worked to help the Pup out. A friend of mine recommended Jenny. Jenny was amazing and God sent!!!! She supported me and gave me a lot of information on what to do to get our new found puppy to feel safe and come out of his shell. Through her walking me through what to do, contacting me to see how its going and her positive words the whole time, she was the catalyst for this puppy's recovery. Our new puppy went from being scared of us, Peeing himself when we were near and hiding in corners, to comming when I call, snuggling with me and playing all day long with his toys and our other dogs. He went from being the most sad soul I have ever met and transformed into a goofy and silly sweet boy. I accredit this to Jenny's information and guidance. He was a very extreme situation and it took a different approach and a level of understanding to get him to the place he is in now. Jenny comes highly recommended by myself and I would use her for any of my dogs or for any future needs because she is absolutely amazing!!! She is compassionate, caring, patient and you can you can tell she loves dogs with every fiber of her being!!!

She would even nip at us or other dogs when food was around. Thanks to Bruce's guidance and training techniques, she's like a new dog! She's calmer, listens so much better, and the food-related aggression is under control. We also recently adopted a high-energy 1-year-old rescue, Rambo (he's part blue heeler), who came to us from an abusive situation so he was very reactive and hard to manage. Bruce has been incredible with him. Rambo is now learning to focus, follow commands, and is making huge progress. Bruce's expertise and calm, confident approach has made a world of difference. We have recommended him to friends, family and co-workers. Highly suggest you work with Bruce if you need help with your dog!

Oh my gosh. Adrienne Green with Bark Busters is an incredible dog trainer who teaches you to be a…read moredog pack leader and speak dog so your pup can quickly learn what you want him to do My husband and I have had dogs all our lives. Everything from Pomeranians to Labrador and Golden Retrievers and every breed, temperament and personality in between. It's easy to find trainers but it can be really hard to find a GOOD trainer! Over the years, we've spent thousands on dog behavior veterinarians, breed specific trainers, and your basic pet store group classes. All of these can work for some dogs, but not all. We lost our two black Labrador brothers this past summer to age related health problems. We were completely devestated. We didn't know if we could do it again until Jack decided for us. Jack is a male Bichon mix rescue, but who rescued who? Jack rescued us - literally ! When we got Jack home we wanted to start out on the right foot immediately. We used two online trainings - waste of money and time. We asked, searched and found several self-proclaimed and "guaranteed results" trainers. You had a time limited training. From past training experiences, if your dog didn't learn everything in that timeframe you were left feeling frustrated and confused as to what to do next. Then we found Adrienne at Bark Busters. They aren't inexpensive, but when we found out they would be partners for the life of our dog, we were hooked. In over 40 years of our dogs and training, Adrienne is the ONLY trainer who actually knows what she's doing. Jack began training as a timid puppy who then developed into a defiant teenager with an attitude. Adrienne has given us the tools and behavioral changes we needed to make to consistently provide Jack with age appropriate expectations. We now understand how to think like a dog and speak "dog". Jack is becoming calm and confident that we are the leaders and he can enjoy being a puppy. Thank you Adrienne!

This is a dog that would be halfway down the block if he slipped or broke his collar. We've also seen how much more confident and happy Cheddar is after his training.
