Josh was patient and knowledgeable in every situation we needed addressed! Very impressed! We appreciate you, Josh!!
What an improvement on day 1. The techniques and guidance provided by Joshua are already helping. He helped distinguish " act of correction" rather than actually correcting. Highly recommend!
Today's training was thorough, impactful and very informative. It's the first time we've had a trainer not use any treats and really explain behavior of a dogs- totally makes sense!!
We were able to address and correct our dogs' poor habits and reactivity whole walking and in our home. We can already tell these new lessons will improve our lives with our fury companions.
Josh was extremely knowledgeable and a great teacher. I learned so much today. I was amazed of how much the techniques made an immediate change in Capito's behavior. I am so glad we engaged Bark Busters + Josh!
Very helpful in understanding how our dogs think and what is important to making them feel safe and secure!
Joshua was very helpful with hands on training and homemade videos we can watch when he is gone. All our issues were addressed + with practice " Harper" will be the best Labrador ever!
Joshua was extremely respectful and helpful- he allowed us to feel completely comfortable. We worked through all the concerns we had and made incredible progress in a short time. We are so grateful!
Training was very positive with our dogs. Learned very positive reinforcement.
Josh is awesome and very knowledgeable + patient. Saw noticeable changes during and after the first session.
Very informative, glad we did this now. Great training with videos and written instructions. We are glad we did this with Bark Busters, we wish we did this years ago.
We loved Josh's way of teaching and his explanation of things. We noticed a huge improvement in Murphy's behavior right away. We also loved that Josh created instances of real-life situations because that seemed very effective.
I had issues with Bella tugging on the leash constantly. Within a couple of minutes, Josh was able to teach me how to resolve the issue and was able to walk around the neighborhood with no issues at all.
It was very educational. I learned a lot and how the dog results more to motion and one word commands.
Joshua is a very knowledgeable, patient person - his explanations were very thorough and useful. He explicitly crafted my homework assignment to reinforce my work w/ Baxter.
We learned a lot from Joshua. We have more confidence with our dog. He did an amazing job. Highly recommend.
Positive support! Messaging on what to do.
Joshua was excellent!
The best 3-hour session of our lives! We learned so many things from Josh that we will easily be able to carry over, he was so informative and knowledgeable. 100% would recommend for any behavior or obedience training!
We have a 2 year-old male dog. We love our little guy but were concerned because he reacts aggressively towards some dogs, and we were worried that he might bite the other dog. He also sometimes barks uncontrollably. My wife and I tried various approaches to see if we could correct his behavior with no luck. We found Bark Busters and from their description of their approach sounded very promising. We had our first appointment with Josh Furchess and he was very informative as to how we could change our dog’s attitude. He went over things in detail explaining why our dog was behaving the way he was. Josh spent several hours with us going over the exercises and guiding us on how to work with our dog. After the first session we were amazed at the change in our dog’s attitude and how he listened better. We have been practicing with our dog over the past couple of days and now understand how to be more effective in how we communicate with him. We are very pleased with the quick change in his behavior. We were pleasantly surprised that he behaved very well around other dogs when we took him for recent walks. There has been a dramatic improvement in just a few days, and we like the fact that Bark Busters is there for you for the life of your dog. Josh was very responsive and said that he was available if we needed his help and that he would check on us periodically to see how we are doing. We aren’t sure how other dogs may respond, but we were very happy with the results and are looking forward to seeing our dog continue to improve as we work with him more.
Amazing and immediate change after using the tools recommended. The buck stops with me. The training will save all of us and our sanity!
The training session was extremely helpful. A lot was learned and the practices we executed made a lot of sense. Very hopeful for the future as we continue these practices.
We had a wonderful experience today. I really appreciated the explanations and the videos so we can go back and review. He was able to answer all our questions thoroughly. We were very impressed.
Very good results for first session!
We enjoyed working with Josh! He was very informative and knowledgeable + provided us with tools and tactics to implement in our house daily.
We learned alot about ourselves and our pet. Have a long way to go, excited to see what's possible.
IT was thorough, covered all my concerns. Saw immediate improvement.
josh's training is very detailed and effective. He taught us how to set boundaries with our dog mimicking the natural ways dogs communicate.
Awesome session! Hazel is a completely different dog, already. Great teaching. Easy to follow and works! I'm sure it would help you and your dogs!
Very thorough. Thank you!
We accomplished thorough training exercises upon request, with clarifications as needed. We were able to adopt to her needs in the situation.
Joshua was clear and gave excellent information with examples. I am very pleased.
We learned so much about how to train our dog. The programs were explained in detail, and we are ready to practice on our own. Joshua is truly a gifted trainer. His experience and patience are priceless.
Josh explained calmly and clearly what is required of us as owners to modify our puppy's behavior. He has provided us with the structure we need to improve.
Joshua was wonderful! Very clear, incredibly professional, and thorough. He addressed our issues right away and we saw noticeable improvement in the first session. Very happy with the service provided, excited to continue!
Super helpful guidance on how to use body language and tone to direct the dogs. Also, very valuable guidance on how to deal with reactivity.
Cannot express how successful even 1 session has been - we are understanding our dogs and understanding where we have been at fault training our dogs. We would have never known how to correct behaviors w/out this help. We feel prepared to handle the next 3 weeks to get our dogs to be the best dogs to each other, and us be the best owners to them.
Very friendly, great training. Noticed improvement right away.

First time I've seen improvement in Luca's behavior. He is learning the proper behavior, and it has given us hope!
Very Very informative, Tad Brown changed his behavior in one day!
Joshua listened to all our concerns we had with our dogs. He explained thoroughly the steps we'd take. He provided us with various resources to ensure our success. He provided with demos and then walked us through while working with our dogs. Overall, this was a great and very helpful experience5.
Josh sat with us to really understand our needs and our dogs before starting and really focused on the tough areas. He really understood our dogs personalities and customized the lesson to best suit our dogs.

Josh listened to all of our concerns and addressed them. I have more confidence in training my Cavapoo!

Josh was able to address our concern with Kenai's separation anxiety and other behaviors our dog was having as well as explained why our dog was exhibiting these behaviors. We have seen improvement already!
Significant improvement just in one session, I am completely happy with the training program, and felt even more confident moving forward.
Mt session was very straight forward and easy to pick up. My dog showed great progress on our first session!
Explanations of each step, very thorough and easy to understand and repeat. Quick results with the tools used. Reinforcement is important, also learned how to deescalate stressful situations and to calm him down.
Falling back to basics and reinforcing trust in our dogs. This is a program is simple and requires us to put in the effort to accomplish our goals.
Very professional, asked questions, addressed issues. Great with Jessie outside with the trainer's dog Nala- Very easy to understand Josh's directions. Reexplained and reminded me when necessary. Extremely knowledgeable, NOT COCKY - Kind! Impressive organization.
It was very productive. There was already a result with our dogs to stop barking, stop stealing food, also addressed leash pulling.
Very knowledgeable. Great drills & training homework.
Excellent!
Joshua was attentive and thorough in addressing my concerns with Leila. He communicates very clearly and provides concreate tools.
Lots of material! A great start. Appreciate the detail and reinforcement.
Josh was awesome! My wife and I feel much more confident after today and are excited about training our puppy knowing that we have learned the right things to do!
The guidance needed for my 14# rescue dog that has proven to be an alpha. The aggression shown by my dog has been minimized with today's three-hour session and wit the additional training I will be doing.
Josh came by and immediately got to work. He focused on our needs and separation anxiety. The guidance was accurate and immediately implemented.
Amazing how much progress was made in just one session today! Love all the information provided, so we can have it for later recall!
Lots of great info and saw some immediate improvements. Both of us got a chance to try each exercise and work on commands and work through issues!

Wonderful! Life saver! Thank you, Josh, for helping us to know and be able to connect with Bunny!
Trainer (Josh) was very clear, concise, and directed us how to train our dogs directly. He teaches us how to train which is critical. He addressed all of our challenges and gave us homework and stressed constant consistency is critical.
Very thorough and caring. I feel confident that we have the tools to take care of Bogey.
Josh did a wonderful job training Trixi. She responded very well. He was very thorough plus patient. He is a miracle worker!
Josh took the time to understand the particular issues we were challenged with specifically pulling on the leash, barking at passersby, and respecting personal space. We implemented corrections that were effective immediately. We are excited to keep practicing and enjoying more freedom with our furry kids!
Dogs did better than I did today!
We were provided great philosophy plus lessons on how to train and understand our dog. Lucky learned a lot today!
Joshua is very professional and to the point, detailed, plus came prepared. Lucy was very receptive to him. We learned so much to make our lives plus lucy's life easier + with more joy! The information was very helpful plus the homework! Looking forward to our 3–4-week follow up. Thank YOU!
Noticed results right away!
Josh was able to teach me how better to teach her! She may have some bad experiences w/ me that puts her on guard, but Josh helped a lot with recognizing the behavior and the methods how to fix this issue.
Unbelievable progress on the first day of training! Highly recommend Joshua as a highly competant and companionate trainer.
Sheeba responded to the commands, and I see where she will continue to respond with consistent behaviors from me. I think were on the road to a well-behaved dog.
Josh helped Ammo learn how to stop pulling and help stop him from eating rocks. He also showed us "place" where the dog stays in his bed will not get off unless he has permission. He is also learning boundaries.
Josh explained and that helped us with the exercises given to train Winston to listen. Setting boundaries is important and something we did not do when he was a puppy. We understand that we will need to be proactive when training and working with Winston on his exercises! The goal is to have him not door dash! Josh was great and very knowledgeable.
Tips/ tricks were simple yet effective. Could see significant improvement within seconds (Over a couple attempts)! Extremely happy with how he explained why he has certain behaviors and how to correct it!
I saw an immediate improvement in Luna after my first training session. She responded well to the methods Josh taught us!
The verbal rules Joshua gave me to make my dogs respond changed their behavior!
Joshua spent as much time as necessary to provide us with the skills we need for Murphy. We were given time and techniques to be successful.
Our training was awesome! Thorough and to the point of the problems. We are excited to see our Izzy be the best dog she can be.
Effective training! Our dog is doing a lot better already. Immediate results for our pup!
Great session! We learned a lot and saw lots of improvement!
Very effective! Surprising how much progress we made in one session.
Today's session was incredibly helpful! We've already seen notable improvement in Harley's behavior. Josh was amazing with her and gave us lots of tips/ homework before our next session.
Today gave me confidence to help Bodie plus to be our best!
Very impressed with the knowledge and experience. Joshua clearly knows what he is doing. He is truly an expert.
A great education on the dog's mentality! Amazing how quickly they understood.
Clear communication. Awesome to have great instructions! Joshua explains dog psychology with simple terms, his reaching reaches all learning types!
