Bark Busters teach you to be the “Big Dog,” putting you in control of your relationship with your dog. Your dog will begin responding immediately when you put our coaching practices and behavioral techniques into action.
Bark Busters trains your dog in your home. This is where most of a dog’s behavioral issues occur and is also where your dog is most comfortable. In his home environment your dog can focus and respond better to training.
