So! You know your dog is a good dog! He or she may be the perfect dog 95% of the time but it’s that 5% or more that makes living under the same roof or taking a walk, a challenge. I’ve fixed most every imaginable dog behavior problem and I can help you!

Most behavioral issues are learned based on both experiences and environment. That’s why in home dog training is so effective because this is where most behavioral issues occur and it’s where your dog feels the safest. Because your dog can’t speak English and you can’t “speak dog” many miscommunications occur. At Bark Busters, we can teach you how to communicate with your dog in a language he understands.
