Our Dog Training and Behaviour Services
A better way to a better dog!
Bark Busters Home Dog Training provides a solution to your dog’s behavioural problems.
Any dog, any age, any issue. Backed by our unique lifetime support guarantee.
Our training takes place in your home
When Bark Busters dog trainers conduct adult dog and puppy training in your home, they will assess your current household dynamics and how they influence your dog's behaviours. After making any necessary adjustments to the environment, your dog trainer will then teach you methods of communication that will help you lead your dog with confidence and ease. No matter what breed, age, or issue, Bark Busters' natural, dog-friendly methods are proven effective, and they are also kind.
How to establish yourself as pack leader
While some methods of obedience training for dogs rely on gimmicks or inducing pain or discomfort, the Bark Busters method empowers you with the insight you need to become your dog's pack leader. Once the role of pack leader is fulfilled by you, most other issues and concerns will fall naturally and easily into place. All the dog training tips in the world won't matter if your dog doesn't view you as their pack leader. Dogs have an innate need for the social structure and security of a pack, so in order to maintain a peaceful existence, dog owners must learn to confidently lead that pack. The bottom line is this: dog behaviour issues almost always stem from lack of consistent leadership. Pack leadership isn't difficult to achieve, it simply requires a basic understanding of the pack leader mindset and consistent use of a few, straightforward techniques.
Our dog training is simple, natural and fast
Once you've assumed your role as pack leader, all you will need is consistency and the natural techniques taught by Bark Busters to reinforce and strengthen the bond between you and your dog. Bark Busters dog trainers can show you how to transform a 'problem dog' into a happy, obedient lifelong buddy, often in only a matter of hours. Bark Busters is so confident with our dog training methods that we offer a Lifetime Support Guarantee. Developed in Australia, our simple, natural and dog-friendly training methods focus on developing a positive relationship between owner and dog to establish a lasting emotional bond based on respect and trust. Our dog obedience techniques leverage the same communication methods, body language and voice control that dogs follow as part of their instinctual pack mentality. For dog behaviour training, we come to your home at a time convenient to everyone in your household. In as little as two hours (versus weeks or months by other methods), the Bark Busters dog training approach can help owners establish control of their dog; all without treats or the need for harsh punishment. In the first session, you will see dramatic improvements in your dog's behaviour.
Bark Busters Home Dog Training methods help to solve behaviour problems such as:
- Basic dog obedience
- Aggressive behaviour
- Chewing and destruction
- Digging in the garden
- Jumping up
- Nuisance barking
- Pulling on the lead
- Puppy Training
- Separation Anxiety
- Toileting in the house
- Recall
and much more...
Home dog training is ideal for:
- Solving dog behavioural issues such as aggression towards people or other animals.
- Curing embarrassing and annoying habits like barking, jumping up on people, scratching and whining at the back door.
- Creating an obedient dog or puppy that will sit or stay on command, come immediately when called, and happily walk on lead without tugging (sorry, we don't train children!).
- Setting boundaries for no go zones for your dog.
- Reducing separation anxiety stress without the need for sedatives or drugs.
Why do we train in your home?
Your dog lives with your family, in your home. This is where they misbehave most often, so this is where dog behaviour training is most effective. Dogs learn by association. Bark Busters teaches your dog to listen in the home environment. If they do not listen at home, then they will not listen outside your territory.
Bark Buster dog trainers conduct the one-on-one training in your home, without the distraction of other dogs or the stress of being sent away for dog obedience training at a kennel. After learning in your home, our behavioural therapist and trainer will work with you as needed outside and around real distractions, once you and your dog are ready.
Humane, non-physical, natural dog training approach.
All dogs are not the same, so we vary our approach based on each dog's personality and temperament and what will work for that dog. We also vary the dog behaviour training to suit the family's specific needs and lifestyle, the dog's environment and what YOU do or do not want from your dog.
Our positive dog training methods are pain-free, treat-free, and clicker-free and we do not use any harsh methods. We will teach you a system of communication your dog already knows, based on canine communication and pack behaviour. You will learn how to use your body language and voice tones to get your dog to focus and respect you. You can learn to teach your dog behaviours that are and are not acceptable, both on and off lead, at your home, at the park or virtually anywhere.
What is included in Bark Busters Home Dog Training?
Bark Busters trainers are committed to solving your dog's behavioural issues. We charge a one-time fee on your initial lesson which also covers you and your dog for follow-up visits until you achieve your goals with your dog. We are there for you and will return if new problems arise or old ones resurface.
The first dog training session will take about 2 to 3 hours. Following the first session, you will continue to build the right relationship between you and your dog by practising for 10-15 minutes a day. This will reinforce your dog's newly learned behaviour.
Lifetime Support Guarantee
Bark Busters is the only dog training company that offers lifetime support guarantee because our training really does work. Our lifetime support guarantee gives you peace of mind knowing you have a dog training partner for the life of your dog.
