We have only positive things to say about our experience with Patrick Logue and Bark Busters. We could see results immediately, while Patrick was with us, and now, two weeks after our in home lesson, we continue to see that following Patrick's suggestions has helped with establishing new behaviors for our recently adopted adult dog. The in home approach is a good idea, helpful in establishing behavior when someone comes to the door, and, going in or out of doors with your dog. We took a walk outside during our lesson and I am still delighted with how good our dog is when we go out for a walk. I like that Patrick genuinely wants us to be successful , and I feel certain that I can call or email him with questions or concerns, and he will respond quickly.
Patrick is phenomenal! Our two Morkie pups are, or should I say were, very high energy and excitable; they were barking and running for the door whenever some rang the doorbell, as well as barking at every sound they heard outside. After helping us see what we were doing wrong and giving us the tools to correctly take control and communicate with our puppies, they were very calm and relaxed. We highly recommend training with Patrick!
Patrick came into our home with knowledge, professionalism, and overall trust. My wife and I wanted our little Romeo to learn from the best and we feel Patrick and Bark Busters is just that, also making it very enjoyable and easy to understand once the training ended. Thank you for helping and we highly recommend his services!
Bark Busters training worked extremely well for my pup, Milo, even on the first session!! I feel very confident, especially with the follow up support, that Milo and I will continue to be successful with his training. He is able to fully listen to me and walk normally by my side on the leash. Previously, he would dart ahead, drag me, chase lizards, and freak out over other dogs. Now we have hope for bringing out and about without fear of him getting out of control! Thank you!!!
We had Patrick come to us a little over a week ago to help us with our 1 year old dog Luigi. Luigi is a great dog who is filled with lots and lots of energy. We were hoping Patrick would be able to show us how to deal with his constant barking and his jumping on people. As soon as Patrick came to our house I could sense his calmness. He sat down and first shared all of his knowledge with us. He talked to us about how to best communicate with our dog and teach him how to be calm. He then showed us several scenarios and techniques on how to best respond to Luigi and his behavior. I have to say that within that first session I was quickly impressed at the change in Luigi's behavior. All the more impressed that he was responding to us without us using any treats. Just the skills and positive reinforcement we discussed. Patrick encouraged us to continue practicing the skills we learned for at least 10 minutes a day. My husband arrived home after being out of town for the week and was immediately taken back by the positive change in our dog. It is refreshing to see him responding so well! We will continue to practice what Patrick taught us and hope that the positive changes we have seen will develop even more. I would recommend Patrick and Bark Busters 100%. Thank you Patrick for all your help and for a job well done!
I am so happy I called Patrick. It was amazing to me to see our 5 month Labrador mix puppy listen and follow directions in less than hour. He gives the owner the tools necessary to love and discipline (in a loving way) simultaneously. The other key to success he reiterated was practice practice practice and praise praise praise. I feel confident now and much more peaceful. He is very professional and patience. I would recommend to anyone!!
Patrick is a life saver.... literally !!!!! I adopted a small dog who was previously abused and attacks anyone other than myself. This is no way to live for him or me. I tried several things on my own but the situation was not getting any better. Within the 2 hour session, my little guy went from being a maniac to being calm and relaxed. The advice and techniques that Patrick provided are priceless. I have no doubt that following his instructions will lead to much happier life for all !!
Patrick came to our home yesterday and experienced first hand our standard poodle who barked at the doorbell, jumped all over him upon entry, jumped up on his lap when he sat down, slobbered drinking water on his clothes, and continuously jabbed him with toys to get his attention. During this time, Patrick was making every effort to educate my husband and myself about his program and teaching methods. When human class ended and dog class began, it became immediately apparent that our TOP dog was being demoted to the bottom of our family pack. Patrick was precise in his instruction and thorough with regards to reasoning. He patiently helped us practice until it became evident that our dog was well on her way to becoming a calm and respectful pet. We spent time today practicing from the sheets that were left with us and had no difficulty at all. I was even able to stop my unleashed dog outside from eating mulch and chasing the neighbors cat. I accomplished this with a well timed "dog-speak" word that Patrick taught us. Never had I ever imagined that such a transformation in behavior could be made in such a short amount of time. BARK BUSTERS PATRICK LOGUE IS AWESOME!!
What an amazing learning experience! Through a simple presentation/videos Patrick showed me "how to speak dog" rather the harder prospect of teaching my dog "to speak human". His demonstrations and practical exercises taught me how to work with my 8 year old German Shepherd to be calmer and more attentive in stressful situations. Frankly, this intensive first session was nothing short of instantly and completely helpful.
If you don’t think this will work on your dog, you’re wrong. I was worried if this would work for an older dog, but the results speak for themselves right away. I’ve now got an attentive and cooperative canine companion. The great part is that Bark Busters is there for texts and phone call questions whenever needed (which I've already utilized). This also includes homework and follow-on sessions. Patrick is truly a lifetime training partner for you and your canine companion.
Thank you Patrick and Bark Busters of Fort Myers for the life altering help! I can't wait for follow-on sessions.
Thank you Pat and Bark Busters! We were really having some problems with our new puppy. Establishing boundaries and getting him house trained was pushing us to our limits. Our sweet puppy Winston would go to the bathroom everywhere and .... often. We have 4 boys and live a very active lifestyle. It was critical to get him house trained. Our puppy was sweet and loving, however, we were getting to a point when we thought we had made a wrong decision in getting him. We tried crate training and various methods on our own with no luck. Pat came out and spent time with our family to understand the problems and educate us on how to speak to our puppy and offered a few simple solutions (where and when to feed, type of food, basic commands...). We are happy to report that we have had no accidents in the house for almost 2 weeks!!!! Bark Busters saved us!
I have worked with Patrick with my own personal dogs who have sibling rivalry and some of our fosters with a local rescue. He comes in to your home where the issues are and trains you how to communicate with your dog in a level they will understand. For the first time in a year my personal dog where able to see each mother through a gate and remain calm. I can not thank him enough!!!
Bark Busters is the best. I adopted a new shelter dog who had been returned for anxiety issues with lightning. After 1st visit a Huge improvement! We had lightning he had anxiety I used the tools I was taught and it was amazing
After our very first training with Patrick, Boomer was able to walk calmly on the leash even while it was thundering. We are learning how to talk dog and Boomer is responding!!
Yesterday was a game changer in our household! We have a German Shepherd rescue with a sad beginning to her life. The police found her wandering the streets of Miami so we can only imagine what 24 hours in her young life would bring. She is a wonderful dog with some not so wonderful issues. We have had her for 4 weeks and spent time getting her to trust us and know she had a safe forever home but we were unable to help her overcome her problems. Then in came Patrick. In 2 hours, we learned to correct the things we were doing wrong and our girl started to learn what was expected of her to be a member of our pack. We had no idea things could change so rapidly! Patrick worked wonders with her and we all agree that it is going to take some time to overcome all the issues but the improvement in her (and us) has been amazing in 24 hours. We would highly recommend Patrick. It's good to know we can call him at any time for help, but right now, everything Patrick taught us is working. Thank you Bark Busters and Patrick!
Thank you Patrick. Thank you for helping me understand my dogs body language, how to properly communicate with him so he will understand me and I will understand him. In only 2 hours you were able to show me the calm and relaxed side to my fur baby! I look forward to continuing his training and appreciate you helping me and my pup get on the right track to a respectful and trusting relationship with Atticus!
An amazing experience for all of us and instantly and completely helpful. In a simple to understand presentation, demonstration and practice, Patrick taught the whole family how to work with our dog to be calmer or exhibit the behaviors that, frankly, we were remiss in not addressing sooner.
If you don’t think this will work on your dog, you’re wrong. I thought ours was hopeless and I’ve got an even better and cooperative canine companion now.
Thank you Bark Busters of Fort Myers for the life saving help!!!
Trainer Patrick Logue came to work with my 4-month-old puppy this week, and I can't describe how astounding the difference is. It's like she is a different dog. The steps he gives you are based on legitimate behavioral psychology, yet still simple enough to follow where training her won't be as complex as originally thought. Highly recommended.
I was blown away! I loved that Patrick not only instructed me, but he gave me the rationale behind the instructions. He accomplished exactly what I needed him to this morning. Stella and I have been practicing with the door since he left. She totally gets it, what a great dog, and a great day! Thanks again Patrick.
Bark Busters is making a world of difference with our Shepherds. Patrick is amazing! Our 1 1/2 yr old is the challenge and Patrick has given us great tools to use so I don't get pulled down the road. Thank you Bark Busters and Patrick.
Patrick was Awesome! My family rescued a Lab/Shepard mix in May and we were having issues with walking him on a leash, swimming in our pool was not enjoyable, separation anxiety, jumping on us when we returned home and just not understanding who was in charge. After our first visit we have seen a big improvement in our dog. Using the tools and learning how to communicate with our dog has been a life saver for our home! Thanks for all your help and for educating us on how to communicate with Gino! We look forward to making more progress with him everyday!
Patrick has helped us with our two rescue dogs. They each had their own unique, behavioral problems which were causing us issues on multiple fronts. Patrick was able to identify the unwanted behaviors and help us understand why each of our dogs was acting as they did. Our six-year old lab/border collie/pit bull wasn't sure who was in charge and was therefore confused as to his role in the family. Our two year old lab/greyhound mix used her cuteness to get away with over energetic behaviors that bordered on insane. By implementing Patrick's tools over the last six months, we now have two very well-behaved dogs. I even had a small gathering at my house and all the guests were surprised to learn that our dogs were crated in the same room because the dogs never made a sound. This would not have been the story prior to having Patrick help us. All the noise and excitement of twelve new people in the house would have had them barking no stop. This past 4th of July we braced ourselves for the usual crazy barking that comes with the loud bangs of fireworks. For the past four years we have endured a sleepless night as each new round of bangs and whistles would bring about another round of panicked barking. Remarkably, we were able to have a bark free night thanks to Patrick's training tools. I never would have thought such a drastic change was possible but we are living proof that Patrick is a doggie miracle worker!
We had our first meeting this morning and we’ve implemented Patrick’s suggestions in our house with our two brother Scottish Terriers who are just 6 months old. By lunch time I had both responding to me when called and since they were in the green zone both laid down on the floor next to me! Remarkable! Wouldn’t have happened yesterday. I even got one of them to not steal his brother’s toy when playing. Now it’s up to us to follow through! Patrick was fantastic! We look forward to a great working partnership with him.

Where do I even begin?!?
I got their info from a friend who swore by them and now I know why! Patrick is the absolute best in the business! I literally don't know what I'd do without him. I have a Morkie that literally could not even contain himself when he saw other dogs and I thought for sure it was hopeless. Patrick magically connected with my little guy and he was literally like a different pup from their time together. He is professional, kind, gentle, and knows his stuff like no other. I HIGHLY recommend him and would literally put my name on him and Bark Busters any day!
Patrick was great! My rescue dog has had issues getting along with other dogs, so it’s been a struggle. But after following Patrick’s insructions and guidance, I was able to walk her without her lunging at other dogs for the first time! I will keep implementing his tips and would definitely recommend him to anyone needing help with their own furry friend.
Within an hour, Patrick was able help us with our 1 year old Golden-doodle who enjoyed walking me (or pulling me down the street), continuous barking with passerbys or house guest, and peeing due to excitement. He uses humor and great analogies to train the owners on how to use body language to build trust, respect, and a relationship with our dog. Consistency is the key and I am happy that my entire family took part in this training. We are all on the same page and using the same body language to correct our dog's behavior. We have watched many episodes of "The Dog Whisperer" and have tried implementing techniques, but nothing compares to the physical, one-on-one interaction with a trainer who is able to help identify mixed signals or messages we were sending our dog. Patrick took time to demonstrate each technique and allowed us time to practice to ensure we had control of our dog. I highly recommend Patrick from Bark Busters!!!
Patrick rocked! We are new to the area and rescued a puppy! So now with a 11 year old dog and pup Patrick was amazing. He taught us how to keep our dogs relaxed and get along. We are on Day 2 and re-read all the instructions and started over from day one for consistency. Thank You so much Patrick. Snickers is much more tolerable.
We will be in touch!�
We have a VERY high energy Boxer named Cassius, to the point where we cannot have people over the house. He jumps on them and will not stop trying to climb on and lick them when they sit down. We called Bark Busters! Patrick came out and within minutes of him training Cassius (actually training us too) Cassius responded and is doing a great job. After one session he no longer jumps when we come into the house and listens to our commands. Cassius seems to show sign of becoming a well behaved dog. We are very thankful for Patrick and Bark Busters. THANK YOU!!!
Would never had thought our pup would catch on so quickly. Excellent and easy way to train our pup. So happy we hired Patrick. He is awesome! Within 10 minutes our pup was following direction and listening to our commands. A++++
I cannot express how pleased I am with the training Patrick gave not only our dog but to us as well!!! In just 3 short hours I learned so much and our Bodie responded very well to his training!! Highly recommend Patrick!!!! Thank you so much!!!!!
I highly recommend Patrick at Bark Busters!!!! Their concept really works. My German Sheppard ruled the house until the day Patrick came to our house. With our new way of communicating with our dog our lives are changed forever. We can truly enjoy each other now. I am so grateful!!!! Thank you Bark Busters
Amazing, just amazing. Patrick was here for two hours and the change in my dog's behavior(as well as, the change in my behavior) is unbelievable. Thank you, Patrick for teaching me how to speak dog.
Thank you Bark Busters! After just one visit we can already see great improvement in Arti (our German Shepherd). We look forward to our next session!!!
If you don’t think an hour of your time could give you the tools you need to train your dog, then you haven’t tried bark busters! Patrick is a magician when it comes to giving you the knowledge and tools to get respect and obedience out of your dog, this owner of a 1 year old non- neutered German Sheppard highly recommends bark busters service!
We rescued a 4 yr old Great Dane that weighs 144 lbs. He was pulling me & lunging at people on his leash. I have tried months of training (with another trainer )with my last dog and had little improvement, so I was very skeptical. With his size we had to try. I would of never believed it had I not seen it for myself. One day of training w Patrick. He is like a different dog. Not only did he resolve our main issue but showed us how to resolve other common issues. Our HOA was threatening to make us rehome him and now he has manors on leash and our neighbors aren’t afraid of him any longer. Can’t say enough , it was well worth the time & money spent.
Highly recommend Bark Busters! I am so glad I called Bark Busters to come out and help me with my large, excitable German Shepherd today! Boogeyman seem to really respond to Patrick! Can't wait to show the rest of the family everything that I learned today! Thank you again!
We just moved to this area and asked around for recommendations regarding a dog trainer. 5 recommendations came in from my “Neighborhood” site for Patrick at Bark Busters. I was skeptical since this would be our 3rd trainer. We did the Petsmart/Humane Society type training when we lived in Ohio and our dog did great but it never addressed our issue of him becoming territorial especially when in our home (can never have new people over and only a select few of relatives). Then we tried Sit Means Sit in Ohio. This sounded great but it was awful. They used “vibration” collars which was turned up and became a shock collar. It was a horrible experience and traumatized our dog as well as myself. So when I checked this place out, I was afraid it was the same type of training. I was assured that they did not utilize electrical devices and were not dependent on treats and clickers. So we have it a shot. The proof is in the pudding!! Within 20 minutes, we could see the change in our dog. We just did not know how to communicate. Basically, we were giving our dogs mixed signals without realizing it and because it was conflicting information, he made his own interpretation of what we wanted from him. It’s so basic but honestly, we needed someone to show us and guide us in the how and he also made us understand the why. This is a process but in this very short amount of time- it was a game changer. I don’t usually write a bunch of reviews and tbh it’s usually if it’s a bad review because of the frustration. THIS time, it’s because I can’t believe the difference and I want to share this with all of the other frustrated and desperate dog owners. I can tell you, as long as you are willing to do the homework- it’ll change everything. I get nothing out of this review just the satisfaction that if it helps one person, it was worth it. We have been dealing with this behavior for 6 years and can’t believe there is a light at the end of the tunnel. Our dog has been a liability and a bite ready to happen. We would have to pay to kennel him if people were coming over for a period of time or lock him up in a room or crate if people were here for the day. It was almost impossible to walk him if another dog was walking down the street and the UPS truck and Fed Ex truck were pretty much forget about its. After 20 minutes of training, we were able to walk down the street, past 2 dogs without any barking or pulling and the UPS truck without any reaction. The trainer and 4 of my daughter’s friends were also able to walk into our home with our dog not crossing the territory that I had claimed and didn’t even bark. I wanted to give specifics so you could see this is legitimate.
Patrick is amazing!!! I highly recommend his services!! We have three dogs: various ages and all rescues. It has for years been a production to have anyone come to the door (I couldn't unlock the door) without all three barking, jumping, or trying to escape. It would take both, my husband and I, to carrel the three and even then there would be insistent barking from all three. Patrick taught us how to communicate with our dogs and I can now answer the door without any issues!!
Patrick made my communication with my French Bull Dog, George, effective within minutes. All this time I thought I had a stubborn dog that had selective hearing. However, all this time, I wasn't speaking his language. I feel that I already have a new bond with my dog after literally 2 hours of training (the actual training itself only took 10 minutes). It couldn't have been easier! Super stress free. Thanks again Patrick, Sincerely Tracey, Morgan and George
My daughter and I adopted a rescue dog after the hurricane. We went through the first phase of group training at Petsmart. My daughter insisted that we needed further training, but I was very resistant because I didn’t think the money was worth it. Especially something I didn’t think was going to work. I finally gave in. Patrick came to our home and worked with Zeus and us for hours. By the time Patrick left I was almost speechless. Our puppy can go on walks now. He can lay quietly on the sofa with the family and our other dog. They are actually starting to get along. I can not express how happy our family is with the transition in our puppy. Thank you Patrick.
I really recommend bark busters to anybody looking for a trainer!! Patrick helped us out so much and answered all the questions we had when he first came out! Within the first day we saw great progress in our Bentley boy! I am so thankful of bark busters !! :)
I want to thank Patrick for making my walks with Sammie a real pleasure now. He is such a good boy, and now I do not have to be worried he will jump on people or in the face of other dogs.
Hats off to you Patrick.
Mary Jane
To say that Patrick and the Bark Busters techniques are life changers is an understatement. With a 2 year old miniature dachshund I know a thing or two about stubborn dogs. And believe me when I say I’ve researched every training technique out there. Our Rylee has had ongoing issues with her barking at guests, leash pulling and jealousy when other dogs come around, but mostly with her separation anxiety. When it came to her anxiety I feel like we have tried it all..crates, trainers, treats, toys, no crate, music, baby gates, tiring her out before we leave..nothing worked. I’ve read over and over that as a dog owner I needed to establish dominance and let Rylee know that I have my own space and she has hers and that that’s okay. What I learned from Patrick is that it’s one thing to read these techniques and “try” them at home...but it’s totally different when you actually get to see these techniques work before your eyes. And in less than an hour! Patrick was able to show me how to “claim my space” in the house and for Rylee to be calm and relaxed while doing so. In one hour Rylee and I learned that I could let guests in the house and that she didn’t need to bark at them or get worked up. The training really just makes sense and I can’t wait to keep using the Bark Busters techniques to get to the root of Rylee’s separation anxiety. In just two days we both have made tremendous improvements. I have no doubts that she will be a calm and relaxed dog while we are gone in no time! Thanks Patrick and Bark Busters!
If you need help training your dog(s) like we did for our 5 dogs then we wholeheartedly recommend Bark Busters! In literally 2 hours of retraining us and our dogs our lives have gone from pandemonium to blissful peace. To be sure commitment and consistent participation by all is essential to succed but the rewards are well worth the while. And to know that the Bark Busters staff are on hand going forward if we need them gives us confidence and peace of mind. If you've been thinking about getting help don't wait another day! Call Bark Busters and get your life back!
Patrick came into our home with knowledge, professionalism, and overall trust. My wife and I wanted our little Romeo to learn from the best and we feel Patrick and Bark Busters is just that, also making it very enjoyable and easy to understand once the training ended. Thank you for helping and we highly recommend his services!
Bark Busters is The Best!! In less than an hour, my 1 yr old Morkie had stopped barking and I had learned a new way of communicating with him! No more stressed out episodes at the front door or the back door barking at every single thing! Patrick gave me tools to say and do along with leash walking instruction that had Ace next to me, not pulling and using Manners! This can work anywhere...it's simple and our Morkie really wants to do it! I am so happy that I called Bark Busters!
Bark Busters training completely changed the way I communicate with my dog, Milo. It was the best decision we made in regards to his training because he's a sweet dog but we could not get him to stay under control while walking on a leash. Bark Busters gave us the training to be successful training him and we saw immediate results!! Thanks Patrick!
Our 1.5 year old Golden Retriever - Hydro, is a sweet boy and wants to be by our side at all times. Our biggest challenge with Hydro is taking him for walks in our active community and controlling him in the house when guests arrive. I knew I had to do something and my preference was to do it in our own environment. I saw a post and reviews about Bark Busters and gave Patrick a call. After Patrick's 1st visit, we quickly learned how to claim our space in the home and I am delighted to say I removed the colorful, inconvenient baby gate from around the kitchen! We are only 3 days in and the AC guy came today, I panicked... NO GATE!!! Hydro started out doing his "own thing", but I was quickly able to help him regain focus and remain in the space I directed him to. Walking is going to be our biggest challenge and I know Patrick will help us get there! Don't wait as long as I did, if you have something you need to address with your dog(s) call today!
Patrick was excellent. Enjoyed working with him. Listened to the situation and explained how to solve the problem.
I was more confident and optimistic after he was here
Patrick is the best! We have a 2 1/2 year old rescued Border Collie/Spaniel mix named Nyx and an 8 year old silky terrier named Rex who would get very aggressive whenever someone would come into the house. It was getting to the point where I was concerned Nyx was going to bite someone. After working with Patrick for an hour I could already see a huge improvement in both the dogs! I'm so excited to continue practicing with the dogs and highly recommend Bark Busters! It was worth every penny!!
Patrick and the BarkBusters methods were exactly what we needed. We have two dogs with dominance and hyperactivity issues but after just one session with Patrick, we saw a difference. We can’t wait to see what progress we make as we continue to implement what we learned from Bark Busters.
I adopted a young mixed breed dog whose start in life was difficult and intense before she was rescued by Canine Castaways . She is smart with habits that I knew would be too much of a challenge for me to handle without guidance from a knowledgeable trainer. I feel so lucky to have found Patrick Logue. He had Izzie and I making positive changes in her behavior within half an hour of beginning our session. With the help and direction from Patrick, I know I will have a well behaved confident dog.
Patrick is a life saver.... literally !!!!! I adopted a small dog who was previously abused and attacks anyone other than myself. This is no way to live for him or me. I tried several things on my own but the situation was not getting any better. Within the 2 hour session, my little guy went from being a maniac to being calm and relaxed. The advice and techniques that Patrick provided are priceless. I have no doubt that following his instructions will lead to much happier life for all !!
Patrick is an awesome dog trainer. He knows what he is doing and the results were very impressive. I highly recommend Patrick since his focus is on the owners.
After an hour with Patrick we were speechless. The dog we started with was not the same dog we finished with. Our anxious, on alert dog was transformed into a calm, submissive pup without the use of any treats or physical harm. This is life changing for dog and owner! We look forward to a new, calmer household.
Bark Busters training was miraculous! Patrick is a saint. Huge results after only 2 hours of training. We have been blessed with 5 great dogs in 21 years. Always took them to obedience training. This was by far the best and we saw results INSTANTLY!
Bark Busters was a God Send. We have a 7 yr old 5 pound Maltipoo who thinks he rules the roost and a 5 month old golden doodle puppy. We got the puppy in March and he turned our house upside down with jumping, biting, chewing, etc. We have 2 children that were always screaming at the dog because he just wanted to play and he did this by jumping and pretty much ripping off their clothes. It was out of control and we couldn't stop it. We were at the point of contemplating giving the pup away. Too much chaos. Sad at the thought of doing that I got on the computer in search of help to fix our chaos. Bark Busters was the first company I had searched and after reading all the success stories I immediately called for an appointment. Patrick is a very busy guy and this was another sign he was worth the wait. Our family met with him at our house on June 17, 2017. He was kind, patient, and gentle with our dogs and taught us to speak "dog" basically to communicate with our furry boys. He also taught us how to become the leaders of the house and not let the dogs take over and create the chaos that was stressing us out. He was also wonderful teaching our children how to manage the dogs too. It was a success immediately. Worth every $ to have peace back in our house. A HUGE sigh of relief. Thank Thank Thank You👨👩👧👦🐶🐶🙏🙌
Patrick Logue is an awesome trainer! Within the first 2 minutes I saw a change in my 15 week old puppy. My husband and I cannot wait to work with our Riley to get her on the right track of a long and happy relationship! I love the fact that Patrick will be there for us for the rest of her life. He's super nice and knows exactly what he's doing....teaching the owners...not the dog!! I would recommend him to anyone! Thank you so much Patrick!!
AMAZING! I can't believe Patrick's ability to connect with dogs. I was scared to have my dog trained because I thought it meant yelling and controlling with fear. NOPE! Patrick has learned how to speak dog and can teach you too. My boyfriend and me were able to connect with our dog in a way that made "Nala" (our pup) listen and she was even relieved that we were so pleased with her. I can't say enough besides thank you for letting my dog and me understand each other.
Patrick is excellent at teaching better ways to communicate with our dogs. We had our first session today and already saw progress. I am excited to continue with the program that Patrick taught us. I thought that after he left perhaps my dog would revert back to barking at my neighbors. I am delighted to say that my neighbor who has been constantly barked at just happened to come outside and Xander didn't react and stayed calm, cool, and collected :)
we had an extremely positive experience with Patrick. He came to our home and delivered as promised: an efficient, but kind and gentle solution to our dog's barkng issues. the speed of the treatment is amazing. Thanks for a great experience, patick.
We got our Bark Busters appointment 3 days ago and Quila (our baby boarder collie) is doing great with an amazing progress. Thanks to Patrick's advice now we can take walks and a better understanding with Quila. We needed the help for better communication and Patrick oriented our actions and leadership. We still have to continue with the homework but so far we're really thankful for the professional job, great service and the amazing work at home with Quila and us! Highly recommended!!!
Patrick was great. Calm even when he was meet at the door by a barking GREAT DANE. First session went great. We can actually walk the dog now, no pulling
Patrick is an honest businessman, fantastic at his job – a true professional. Contacting Patrick for our canine education is the best investment we have made as a dog household. In the last ten years, Patrick has come to our home multiple times to work with us, to educate and assist us to be better owners of two beagles. Thanks to him we have a better understanding of how our beagles think and how to bond and communicate with them to build a happier household.
Patrick, using the Bark Busters training methods, taught my wife and me how to work with two beagles, each with a different “personality”. We explained to Patrick our goals for each dog and he equipped us to lead each dog to meet our expectations. Neither my wife nor I wanted to zap our dogs with electric shocks (it’s sad some trainers use this method) or physically strike them with hands, feet, or objects (some trainers do this). We did not drop off a dog at some type of “boot camp” and come back a week later with an obedient pet ready to come home, but with no real knowledge of what happened during that week. It was a collaborative effort. You will get out of the owner-dog relationship what you put into your canine education with Patrick and by using this knowledge after his visit ends.
Bark Busters lifetime guarantee means Patrick will come back and help when needed, as needed. Bringing a dog into your home is an important decision and so is making sure owners and dogs live together in a mutually beneficial environment.
Our first session with Patrick proved to be eye-opening. The change in our dog's behavior, in less than 2 hours was almost too good to be true. I would highly recommend Patrick and the Bark Busters method to anyone who wants to be able to effectively communicate with their dog!
I foster for RAIN Rescue and we were struggling with training 2 pitbull puppies that were born with a neurological condition cerebellar hypoplasia. Patrick showed us techniques using the natural instincts the puppies already have to teach them boundaries and obedience. Once we started speaking a language the puppies understand they responded to training immediately. I high recommend Patrick and Bark Busters because if you have a dog you need to speak dog.
Bark Busters Training is one of the best methods out there! Patrick showed me the most effective communication style to train my 1 yr old Australian Shepard in a way that will build the relationship with your dog because you learn the best and most effective way to train them. By the end of the first session my dog was respecting me, no longer jumping, walking next to me on a leash and had great manners at the front door. I can't believe how easy it is to learn and how compliant my dog was with all the training.
Amazing! After the initial training, Lolita finally had manners. I know now it's up to me and Lolita to keep working together, but from the success in only the first few hours is a sign of what is to come, I think that Patrick did a wonderful job.
Just when I was about to give up on our puppy as far her ever being an obedient dog Patrick made correcting her bad habits look like an easy fix . He also helped with correcting our 8 year old aussie that we thought was flawless lol but we found out in our session that she too needed correcting. I would highly recommend him to anyone that needed guidance on training!
I was so impressed with the way Bark Busters training methods work. They are effective & do not harm the dog. Patrick Logue is very professional, courteous, & respectful of the owner & dog. I had a very reactive dog. After the first training session she was calm, & not reacting. What a difference! I highly recommend Patrick Logue from Bark Busters!
Last week, we met with Patrick from Bark Busters to work with Cooper, our feisty Treeing Walker Coonhound. When Cooper was a puppy, we took him to Pet Smart training classes and he learned several commands we still use with him today. However, we soon found that what we learned in those classes wasn't helping us keep Cooper's behavior under control, especially since the commands we learned relied on constantly bribing him with treats.
I used to dread having people over because, while Cooper isn't aggressive, he would overwhelm all of our guests by jumping on them until they left, constantly begging for attention. He didn't understand limits or personal space, despite our yanking him away from guests or commands for him to stop. It became increasingly difficult to walk him because he would bark at everything and everyone. He was so anxious and we felt like we'd failed him as his leaders.
Last week, we met with Patrick Logue from Bark Busters at our home. We learned that the biggest part of our problem was that we weren't "speaking dog." In just two hours, Patrick taught us how to effectively communicate with Cooper so he could be more calm on his walks, with guests in our home, and around our two house cats.
This is such a wonderful program; if you have similar issues with your dog(s), I strongly recommend giving Bark Busters in Fort Myers a shot!
After meeting with Patrick, I had a new and improved version of my dog Ruby. You get more than what you even pay for in knowledge and tips. So thankful for Bark Busters!
Patrick helped me teach my overly-assertive dachshund that I am the leader of the pack in this household and within one day, I have seen my dog not only start listening to me and respecting me, but he is also more calm and relaxed. I'm so glad I contacted Bark Busters and can't wait to continue to work with my dog. I highly recommend this program to anyone with a doggy challenge - whether big or small. Thanks, Patrick!!
Patrick,
You were great and my husband is FLOORED!!!! I could not wait to show him and he could not believe the difference. We had someone drop by the house just a bit ago and low and behold, it still worked!!!! We are so thrilled, especially that such a simple command could be so powerful. I cannot wait to show him the walk tonight either.
Thank you again, it was money well spent!
I rescued a Bull Terrier 2 months ago. I had a previous trainer come to my home to give me basic training. It helped but I was still having issues with leash training and was unable to have Gracie focus on me when other dogs or distractions were around.
I was incredibility frustrated working everyday on Gracie and her leash etiquette, nothing was working. I found Bark Busters and Patrick on Google. His reviews were awesome. It is exactly 24 hrs since my lesson with Patrick and I am FLOORED. Gracie is responding and has improved dramatically! This is all in 1 lesson for about 3 hours. I don't even know how to thank Patrick for giving me hope that I can have control over Gracie in socializing situations. I feel like I have a new world opened up to Gracie and I!
If you want to be able to communicate with your dog and have the best relationship possible, CALL Patrick @ Bark Busters NOW.
My husband and I have a strong willed, high maintenance, yappy pomeranian, Bear. We dealt with his craziness for way too long and finally decided we needed help! After one visit with Patrick that has all changed. During our visit we learned how to speak dog and gain back our control. We now have an obediant dog that is much easier to manage. Who you gonna call? Bark Busters!
Patrick is amazing! We had a whole new dog in less than 5 minutes of his arrival! Our dog, CiCi, would nip and bark at visitors, had no respect for space, and we dreaded taking her on walks around our neighborhood. We now have the tools to create trust and respect with our dog and for our dog with us. My husband and I can't wait to see the results after 5 weeks of practice. We may even be able to take her out with us now! Thank you, Patrick, for helping us "speak dog" and for showing us how great our dog can be!!
I called Patrick Logue to help me walk and keep both my dogs focused, a 90 lb hound mix and a 98 lb Pitt mix. Patrick was so positive, knowledgable, and helpful! In under 2 hours my boys were really focusing with me, respecting set boundaries, and we didn't use treats of any kind! I will absolutely suggest Patrick to anyone, worth every penny!!!! Thank you again!
Patrick was referred to us by our vet. It's almost beyond comprehension how the behavior of our dog Kona has changed. Neighbors cannot believe she is the same dog who used to bark, growl, and want to attack their dogs. Now she walks along with them! We continue to work with Kona every day to reinforce her good behavior. She is now very attentive to her pack leader.
I contacted Patrick from Barkbusters for my pitbull, Gamora. We recently moved and Gamora became aggressive with my mom's Rottweiler mix. We put Gamora in a steel cage and any time she saw the rott or a cat she would go nuts growling, barking and chewing the steel bars until her mouth bled. Within an hour Patrick had it to where Gamora and the rott could be in the same room and Gamora would be calm and the same with the cats. It's amazing and brought alot less stress to our home. Now we can all be in the same room and it be calm. I can't thank him enough!
Patrick is so professional and his training method rocks!!! Within a few moment of the lesson, our dog, Auggie, was a different dog....in a good way :) Before Patrick and Bark Busters, our dog's behavior was inconsistent. Today, our dog is well on his way to respecting me and my husband as the leader of the house...not the other way around! Thank you, Patrick!
I contacted Patrick for Ace, a dog we've had in our rescue for several months. He spent a lot of time in boarding and because of that he was struggling in his foster home. Patrick was great about explaining why dogs do what they do and how we as dog owners can speak to them on their level. He provided the foster mom with the tools she needs to help Ace decompress and let the people be in charge.
Ace still has a ways to go, but he's on the right path with Patrick's excellent tutelage.
Patrick has been great to work with! We have a rescue who came with a little baggage of aggression. After working with Patrick twice we are in a good place. We got the lifetime program of support so we feel confident that we are going to be in a great place and will always be there. Patrick is an advocate for the dog, while providing us with the techniques to understand the dog and receive the appropriate responses and behaviors from our dog. I believe Patrick saved his life as much as we did by rescuing him. Please note, these training techniques do not require the use of force or electronics. There is no pain inflicted upon the dog at any time. There is also not a never ending stream of treats for the dog. I would recommend this program to anyone who has a dog with challenges, especially a puppy or rescue.
I called Bark Busters a couple of weeks ago, at my witts end. My dog Cora is a little over a year old and close to perfect when it's just my husband and myself, but when someone comes over LOOK OUT! Cora jumps, humps and is a non stop pest on the furniture. Patrick came over, and in one session, taught my husband and I how to speak "dog". It is amazing! All we have to do is continue practing. This was money WELL SPENT. After all our pets are family members and a reflection of us, so you want them well behaved and to have manners. Thank you Patrick, and thank you Bark Busters.
Sincerely,
Karen S
Mackenzie is a 9 year old Soft Coated Wheaten and was a nightmare to take for a walk. Today Patrick spent 20 minutes taking us on a walk with him in the neighborhood where we ran into one dog off leash, two ladies on a walk, two German Shepherds who were not well behaved and finished by saying hello to the ladies across the street. We still cannot believe how well behaved he was and so easy to keep in focus and in control. The neighbors thought for sure that this was not the same dog. I have spent lots and lots of money and time trying to find a solution to his behavior problem and Patrick spent 20 minutes giving us the "secret" of how to speak dog. Had we not found Patrick and Bark Busters we were ready to give Mackenzie away because he was too much for me to handle and I was always in danger of being pulled down and getting hurt. Today has been the best day ever for us and Mackenzie. Thank you very much Patrick!
Patrick did a great job with Savannah! She listens perfectly too us. Her licking and barking are well managed now. She's getting used to the new toilet rules and I'm sure she will an old pro very soon. I put a post on my fb page and a couple of my pet sitting clients are interested in his service. I'm using the command with two large Shepherds and they took to it immediately! Thanks, Patrick!
Patrick is wonderful! He went over to help a friend with leash training on his day off. Their dog Diesel is a big strong boy. They are in their 60s . They had just adopted him a week prior from a rescue. They were ready to return him as he was misbehaving on the leash etc. Patrick brought a new leash and collar and turned him around. They are now keeping him and are in control of their sweet boy. They said Patrick was very knowledgeable and professional. Would definitely recommend Bark Busters. :)
OK, our beagle/lab, Gibson, is a strong-willed little scrapper, but after ONE session with Patrick, where we learned how Gibson was training us, smile emoticon, he's like an entirely different dog. Better on the leash, quieter in the house. THANK YOU, Patrick and Bark Busters of Fort Myers!
I adopted my dog from a local shelter, and from day one I had problems with him. Everyone told me he was too horrible, and that I should take him back to the shelter or have him put down. I just couldn't give up on him, he had won me over. Since Patrick has come out it is like I have a brand new dog, it has been amazing. One of the people who had told me to return him even commented, "He has become a great dog! That trainer must be a dog whisperer. I didn't think it was possible." Seriously, some of the best money I've ever spent.
We had Patrick come and help us with Kitt our 3 year old Shiba Inu, who was having issues with aggression towards strangers and going nuts at the window and door with the yard guys and our pool serviceman. In just one session my husband and I were blown away! After our "human" training, Kitt was 90%improved and with us doing our homework and using our dog language he has improved 100%! Thank you so much Patrick, your knowledge and professionalism was so so worth it! We will keep you informed of Kitts and our happy travels this summer.
So far the training has made quite a difference in Max's behavior. Having an 80 pound "puppy" was getting to be a bit much, but now he's really coming around. Thanks Patrick!
Patrick was amazingly patient and thorough! We are 150% pleased with his service and couldn't be happier that we chose to call him. We were skeptical that anyone could help us with our rowdy bluetick coonhound; in one visit, Patrick has helped us transform this household. Thanks, Patrick!!
We were amazed! After just a few hours with Patrick, our 1 year old american bulldog was transformed into a manageable dog! He is no longer jumping on us, we are able to answer the door without any issues, and we can actually go on walks without being pulled in every direction! We are extremely pleased and highly would recommend Bark Busters.
Patrick came out to my home this morning to help me with my two do what they want dogs, Boss and Blu. By the end of the session I saw quite a bit of improvement in my dogs. Patrick was very helpful and informative. I took my dogs on a nice walk! I didn't have to worry about my arms getting ripped out of socket haha the first time I've actually corrected my animals in a non physical way (kneeing, yelling). So I'm looking forward to more and more improvement as I work with them everyday. Thank you bark busters!!
Three years after Guido had his first session with Patrick I can truly say he is our most behaved dog ever. Best decision we ever made was to call Bark Busters!! Thank you Patrick!
