We have gone sporadically to The Barking Lot for a couple of years now. There was a…read moremiscommunication with the preference card recently and I was less than pleased with the grooming service provided. However, when I called to discuss it with the owner, he was more than happy to help. He went through and investigated the situation/preference cards, did not blame it on staff, all while trying to provide the best customer service he could. They were able to fit my two dogs in last minute which I appreciated and they did an excellent job. Even if it was a sub optimal groom, having an owner who works with customers to try and navigate problems and make them right makes this business stand out. Thank you!

The grooming itself is solid -- my boyfriend's dog always looks great after a visit! The real…read moreissue is scheduling. It's nearly impossible to get anyone on the phone, and we have left multiple voicemails without a response. We even tried contacting them via email. Trying to book an appointment feels like a full-time job in itself, but without getting a response back. They should set up an online scheduling system -- it would save everyone a lot of time and frustration. Until then, the hassle of booking just isn't worth the otherwise good grooming experience. Customer service is a big part of returning, and unfortunately, the customer service here is lacking. Wondering how anyone is able to get an appointment or how they are able to stay in business if they do not respond to client outreach.

They are attentive to your dogs needs which is a huge plus. For example, one of my dogs has mild aggression over her water bowl.

Courtney took special effort to treat Apple like she was one of her own; she made sure Apple had; her meds, her food, her special quirks - everything right, so Apple could feel safe and comfy. Apple loved playing with Heidi, Courtney's dog and was given the royal treatment from everyone. I will go to Courtney's from now on and let Apple have fun.

Received services back in June to assist in training my JRT. Training was 80% talk. Talking about what BB stands for...theory about being the alpha and making noises to correct a dog's behavior. The techniques are so antiquated. Other trainers I have worked with can't believe I went to Bark Busters for help. Working with other trainers has actually led to results. Results I was hoping to see from BB. What really gets me is that after the 2 sessions, I have never heard from Bark Busters. Not the company, nor the trainer. I guess they do not stand by their word or contract. Like Steve Miller sang, " Go on and take the money and run". I will never ever recommend Bark Busters. For those of you who have had success, cheers. Our experience..or lack of...was very underwhelming to say the least.

Our Siberian Husky Dylan ate window sills, shoes, toilet paper rolls, chair legs. Dylan hated other dogs and went on the attack as soon as he spotted one. The worst part was he hated babies and we were about to be come Grand Parents. Lee spent an afternoon teaching Dylan as well as my wife and I on how to continue training. Dylan did a 360 that day just when we were about to go crazy and find him another home. It's been two months now and Dylan is still an entirely different dog. He is a pleasure to have now. Lee accomplished this in one afternoon visit. I would highly recommend Lee with Bark Busters. He has a great personality and explains and demonstrates everything to easily understand and follow up for success.
