We specialize in working with dogs to improve or repair relationships -- in your home. We use easy-to-understand techniques that will motivate both you and your dog to want to learn and to better understand each other. Our goal is helping you and your dog become best friends.

We do private behavioral and obedience training in your home and employ the same techniques dogs use to teach and train each other in a pack. After all, that is how they have communicated to each other for centuries.

For almost 20 years, Bark Busters Home Dog Training has been successfully training dog owners in pack leadership: a simple yet very powerful system of communication that just about anyone can master.

Bark Busters training methods:

A balanced system that works almost immediately because your dog already knows pack law . . . and we will show it to you.
Never harsh (Our techniques are simple and effective and, no, we DO NOT use shock collars or pronged collars.)
Never use "alpha rolling" (We are never harsh with your dog. Alpha rolling makes good TV -- not good dogs.)
Enables you the owner to understand your pet's intentions. (You will be empowered to redirect his behavior before it becomes BAD behavior.)
Designed not to interfere with the relationship you want to have with your pet. (You tell us what you want in your relationship, and we will respect that desire.)
