If you’re reading this, then you’re probably frustrated with your dog’s behaviour and you’re trying to determine the best way to do something about it before you lose your mind.
Did you know that your dog probably doesn’t realize he’s misbehaving, or understands how frustrated you are with his actions? Often, a poorly behaving dog is doing his very best to fulfill his responsibilities as he understands them from a dog's perspective.
The problem is, your dog doesn’t understand your rules, and he makes bad decisions as a result. You’re not communicating. So how do you get your dog’s behaviour under control in a way that is not only convenient and effective but will also result in a better relationship between you and your dog? You need to become your dog's leader AND trainer!
Bark Busters shows you how to communicate with your dog in a language he understands, so you can give him the education he’s missing and provide the guidance he’s craving. Most importantly, I will teach you how to deal with your dog’s behaviour in a humane, non-physical manner. I'll also leave you with the knowledge and a plan of action to know how to educate your dog properly for the rest of his life - putting it into practice is up to you.
Imagine, support from a professional trainer for the life of your dog! Our support is unequaled in dog training. And Bark Busters offers guaranteed lifetime support. I can’t guarantee behaviour because that’s up to you, but Bark Busters will help you for the rest of your dog’s life at no additional charge. We all know that behaviour can change as your dog matures or as situations change. With Bark Busters, even if you move to a different area - you will ALWAYS have help -- for the rest of your dog’s life.
Bark Busters has extensive knowledge about dogs and behaviour. Well over 500,000 dogs have been trained with our system. That knowledge and experience is put to work for you and your dog. Age is not an issue, breed is not an issue. Really, the only issue is your commitment to having the relationship you want to have with your dog. If you have the commitment, I can help you.
When you call me, a skilled dog trainer, I will come to your home and customize a dog training program for you. Our holistic training approach can successfully train any dog, at any age, with any problem, including nuisance barking, aggressive behaviour, leash pulling, separation anxiety, toileting accidents, proper crate training, puppy training and basic obedience. A happy, well-trained dog makes a happy stress-free owner.
My goal is to help each of my clients fully realize the joy of having a canine companion as part of their family - while doing the dog a favour and remembering it's first and formost still a dog. Dogs who understand their roles are happy. When the dogs are happy, the family is happy. If you are looking for dog training in Toronto (Liberty Village, King West, Queen West, High Park, Bloor West, Christie Pitts, Cedarvale, Forest Hill, St Clair & Avenue Rd, and Toronto's West end) I would love the opportunity to speak to you about how I can help.
My methods are humane, positive and do NOT include any form of physical punishment. I can teach you the canine language and social system so your dog will learn to understand and respect you. Dogs benefit from having strong leadership and I will teach how to be that leader for your dog. In many cases, a dog just needs your help to cope in a human world.
Bark Busters is veterinarian recommended, and our unique natural training techniques have proven so successful that we are able to offer our Life of The Dog Guarantee, the only service of its kind that is guaranteed for the life of the dog. We'll be your partner in educating your dog for any problems he is having now or that may emerge later. So whether your dog is young or old, big or small, and no matter what breed, get started on your path to a happier home environment and life with your dog.

When to start dog training?
Puppies
It is never too early to start. I will teach you how to create a safe, nurturing environment that facilitates learning and reduces stress on both you and your new family member. I will show you how to deal with nipping, chewing, jumping up, leash and potty training. Then we will work on obedience training all in the comfort of your very own home with specialized one-on-one training. I will ensure your puppy starts off on the right foot and my primary training focus with your puppy is to prevent unwanted behaviours later in life. Everything you need to know including obedience training is part of my program.
Adult Dogs
It’s a myth that old dogs cannot learn new tricks! I train dogs at any age. If your dog needs better manners, has behavioural issues that no other trainer can fix or just does not listen to you when it counts, I can help!
