Bark Busters Home Dog Training Austin Austin, Texas

Great experience with Lori so far. I rescued a 5-year-old dog from a bad background, and he was so scared of everything that I didn't discipline him at all in an attempt to make him feel comfortable. Lori is helping me to establish rules with him and has made a huge difference in his housetraining, leash manners, and door manners after just one session. This is a great value and Lori is amazing!

Lori is the absolutely best! She is so personable, and is always super responsive whenever I reach out with questions and scheduling appointments. I’m so grateful for her as she has made such an incredible impact in mine and my dogs life!

I used to have a miniature schnauzer named Archie,who was very chill and obedient. My roommate got her miniature schnauzer George because Archie was such a good dog. George came with a much more high strung personality. George has always been reactionary to other animals and could be aggressive towards our guests, but recently he started becoming aggressive with me. Lori with Bark Busters came over for one session. Trained us on how to help George relax and let us be in charge. Within one day of training , we have a new dog. He has not tried to protect my roommate once. We have used the Bark Busters method since our training and couldn’t be happier or more impressed. Lori is well worth every penny! Thank you Lori!

I've had Lori help me with my dog a number of times and it's always a huge improvement, even after just one session. When I first adopted my dog she had serious abandonment issues and I had a hard time getting her (and myself!) adjusted. I called Bark Busters because I was very frustrated, and Lori came over to help. Within just a couple hours, Rhoda was like a different dog. I've called her for training "touch-ups" here and there, and she's always super knowledgeable and helps Rhoda and me get back on the right footing. Highly recommend!

Please don't waste your money on this 30 minute cash grab. One session of how to train your dog and that's it. No communication afterwards except the "Please don't review me poorly." I took my dog to another more involved actual trainer who spent the proper time with both her and I on how to behave and just overall calm down. Infinitely better. Literally anyone else will actually train your dog and you instead of the spiel Bark Busters will give you and then abandon you after taking your nonrefundable money. I don't know who these other people are whose dogs magically started behaving after reading a pamphlet but I'd be very wary of the product they claim to provide.

Oh my god...Thats what I said under my breath after only the 1st 10 minutes Lori spent with my dog! Lori is amazing!!! My dog is the sweetest dog when there are no other dogs around but the minute another dog is in the vicinity my dog becomes a terror....kinda scary actually. His behavior created a lot of anxiety for me when taking him for walks and I would plan walks at times I thought I would run into the fewest dogs. It was really frustrating because living in Austin, a dog passes by every 10 secs! After our 1st training session my dog was already walking much better on a leash and I couldn't believe how many dogs we walked by without him becoming aggressive or anxious! She spent so much time with me, teaching me how to work with my dog on an everyday basis to continuously build on the improvements we made. She was patient with my questions and in training me and really took her time. I would recommend her to anyone! Thanks Lori!

Lori is awesome! I thought my situation with my dogs was impossible to correct. Thank God I was wrong. She has helped us learn how to communicate and set proper boundaries with our dogs and now they are relaxed and respectful. I highly recommend using her to help you and your dogs. ????

Lori IS AMAZING!!! I am so thankful to have found her. I have 3 large dogs, 1 full pit bull, and 2 pit bull mixes. All rescues, one lived with me throughout college so she was used to being the only dog around so when the other 2 came along they could not stand each other and would fight horribly. Sibling rivalry to the max, where there had been an instance that I got in the middle of it to try and stop it and got bit. One of them had awful separation anxiety and would not stop screaming if I left his sight. I didn’t know what to do anymore and had to keep all 3 separated at all times and take one out at a time which took a lot of time and work. A little backstory on the other 2- they lived at my parents house with 4 other dogs (6 total) but had no rules and would get into their own fights over there which is why I took 2 in when I could. I decided that it was taking a toll in my daily life so I looked around for training and compared. I’m one of those people who have to check all options before making a decision and takes notes etc...Lori’s program was very welcoming, a great deal, and very professional. I read a lot of other stories of people dealing with sibling rivalry and her helping them so that is why I chose her program. She came to our home (which is a huge plus when dealing with bad behavior so another reason for choosing her) she would work with them and us very patiently and was always available when something happened. After about 2 months the dogs are finally hanging out and playing with each other! I am so happy and relieved that I can finally work in my office and trust them a lot more. I am a lot happier and very satisfied with the results! She continues to check in and make sure we are good and for anything that we need. The program is “lifetime training” so we will continue to keep in touch in case anything new comes up or any major changes happens in our lives. Thank you Lori!!!

Lori with Bark Busters changed our life with helping us be better dog owners! Our love-able Mishka, came to us with some separation anxiety, poor leash skills, and aggressive/protective tendencies with other dogs. Now, as Lori can attest, she's done a complete 180. She realizes we owners are the pack leaders, does not pull on the leash at all, and is a very responsive, much more obedient dog. Bark Busters is completely worth every penny, and the ability to call Lori whenever I need is great, she is so responsive, such a dog lover and has helped us tremendously. We'd highly recommend this company and Lori if you need any help with your dog!

We absolutely loved our experience with Lori and Bark Busters! We saw an improvement right away with our pup, Millie. She's been very receptive to the training and we're happy to know how to alleviate her anxiety and "speak dog." All Lori's tips were easy to implement, and she's very calm, clear, and patient (with us and Millie!). So grateful for Lori's help and highly recommend her and Bark Busters!

Lori is amazing! I got my first rescue dog & he had major anxiety and was so scared of men. It was obvious he had been abused, I had never owned a dog like that. He was so sweet to me & my daughter, but anyone else or other animals he would act like a ferocious beast. Anytime I had company he would literally bark non stop. I watched videos read books & nothing helped. I was at the end of my rope & didn't know what to do. I came across Bark Busters online & gave them a call. That was the best thing I ever did for my dog. Lori came over & educated me on dog behavior and really opened my eyes. My dog was a different animal. I couldn't believe the change I was amazed, along with my friends & family. No joke, even neighbors in my apartment complex stopped me to compliment me on the change in behavior!! I can't say enough good things about my experience with Lori and Bark Busters!

My 2 pups and I are extremely thankful for Lori’s services! She was our last hope and I was petrified I was going to have to give my aggressive pup away. She showed me how to gain control of the household and become the leader. She was very personable and made me feel so comfortable during the entire process. I saw results in the first session and was surprised at the end of each technique because of how well they responded. Will definitely be recommending her to others!!

Lori came out to our house and she couldn't have helped us more! First of all, she was safe; all PPE was on and we distanced. Then she taught us how to "speak dog" and we have noticed immediate results. The dog is now heeling where he used to be all over the place. We highly recommend her!

I had the pleasure of meeting Lori, she is training my dog who’s never been trained before. She seems to really care about her work and taking you though all the training steps very throughly. I would highly recommend to my friends and family. She just had a great vibe and is very friendly and I already saw results the first training session. Thank you!

Lori is so great with animals!!! We love her. She really helped us with our puppy.

We hired Lori to help us with our 8-year-old toy poodle, Phinny. We had tried three or four different trainers in the past with no results. I am not exaggerating that after one session with Lori, incorporating the natural homework into our …

Lori is an absolute saint! After the 1st training session I have already seen improvement and I am extremely excited to see my two dogs to continue to develop!

Great training that doesn't use discipline as part of it. Saw a noticeable difference in my dogs after the 1st day

WOW! Jaw dropped after about an hour of our first training session with Lori. What she was able to teach my puppy to do was incredible! Right before my eyes, my puppy was paying attention and doing everything I was asking of her. The training doesn't involve treats, harsh punishment, or gimmicks. It was just communicating in a way my pup understands. The purpose of the first session was to teach me how dogs communicate, learn, and act around humans and other animals. It was quite eye opening. Basically, teaching me how to communicate and why she responds SO WELL to it. I would recommend Lori to everyone. Simply put, the training WORKS :) It is like no other training style I've heard of and the crazy thing is, it's natural. I'm on the first full day and the difference in my puppy is amazing! If I didn't see it happening, I wouldn't believe it. Thank you Lori!!

Lori made it very easy to understand the training system and how to communicate with my dog in a simple but very effective way. It’s barely been 24 hrs since our first training session and I’m already seeing huge improvements in how my dog is responding to me and him walking on leash without pulling! Highly recommending contacting Lori for any training needs.

We had a challenge on our hands with our new rescue pup. We started with obedience training with another company and couldn’t seem to fix behavior issues like lunging at cars, bikes and other dogs. Zora picked up the Bark Buster method quickly but still had issues with cars. As frustrated as we got, Lori didn’t give up. She spent time on the phone, in person and sending us video feedback until we finally saw the consistent change in behavior. She’s always available and supportive! Now we have a calm, well behaved dog at home and on the leash. Many of our neighbors have commented on the new and improved Zora.

Wow, wow, wow! Would highly recommend to anyone who needs help communicating with their dog more, CONTACT LORI. Within the first hour of the training session our dog was responding so well to the training. We have a rescue dog who we couldn't seem to communicate with well and was very reactive to getting close to other dogs. We had to go on walks around our apartment when we knew most people weren't out. Since Lori taught us how to "speak dog", we feel much more confident on our walks and can walk next to dogs without our dog reacting. Added bonus, the training doesn't involve any treats or punishments to the dogs (which we love). Lori sits down with you and talks about the psychology of dogs and why Bark Buster's training works, and the results are incredible! HIGHLY RECOMMEND LORI!!

Lori is just amazing! My dogs and I desperately needed Lori’s help. I have 6 dogs and Lori jumped right in and knew exactly what my pups needed. I was shocked to see how good all my dogs were responding to our first session and that gives me hope!! ❤️???? Thank you Lori!!

I am amazed at the change from day one. This training is easily incorporated into your regular daily life. And it works! Lori gives lots of information, education on why this approach works. I listened to her with skepticism. But, man, she was spot on. And she is responsive with any problems/issues/questions.

Lori did a GREAT job helping me train my new pup. She was very personable and I immediately trusted her and the information she was giving me. She showed me how to be the leader in the household and communicate with my puppy in a way she will understand. We had one 2 hour session and she explained how my puppy is very confident/dominant and taught me how to handle every situation I could think of. She was so sweet and I could tell she really loves her job. I noticed an immediate difference in my 14 week puppy who has been very difficult to train. I will definitely recommend her to anyone I know in need of a trainer.

Lori and the Bark Busters Program have been such a great help to our ~1.5 year old Chiweenie. I adopted our dog from a North Texas shelter when he was only 6 months old, knowing that he had some serious issues to resolve. Lori and the Bark …

Lori was amazing to work with! We quickly saw results with our German Shepherd puppy and look forward to continuing to work with her so we have a well trained happy dog!

Lori is amazing! She is very professional and the day after she left my puppy slept through the night! She genuinely cares about her clients and is a true dog lover! She is a life savor with stubborn pups!

I had the best experience with Laurie of Bark Busters. My dog Kane is a rescue pup with lots of energy and anxiety about meeting guys. Laurie taught me how to be dominant and in control and gain Kane’s respect while still having a loving …

We are SO pleased with Lori & Bark Busters! She is the 4th trainer we have used - and we have finally found success using Lori's techniques & instruction. Our family highly recommends Lori!
