Welcome to Bark Busters USA!

Mission
Bark Busters' mission is to promote clear and open communication between owners and their dogs using simple and effective training methods that appeal to the canine psyche.

Bark Busters home dog obedience training therapists use techniques to encourage the dog to use his brain and, at the same time, to satisfy the dog's need for pack leadership. In the wild, dogs have a pecking order determined by a dog's dominance within the group. Problem or disobedient dogs are the result of dogs perceiving themselves to be higher up the pecking order.

What we do
Bark Busters home dog obedience training therapists put owners back in control using non-physical, quick and easy methods that their pooches and puppies need.

Bark Busters home dog obedience training therapists come to your home where your dog is more relaxed and open to learning. We teach you how to train your dog through effective use of your voice tones and body language.

Bark Busters home dog obedience training was founded in 1989 and quickly spread worldwide. It has been operating in the U.S. since June 2000 and now has offices in 38 U.S. states and 8 countries with more than 320 franchise locations worldwide.

Bark Busters therapists in the U.S. and worldwide wish to help families enjoy their pets by providing dog behavioral therapy and dog obedience training using natural, holistic and humane techniques in the dog's home.

About the USA Founders
Andrew and Lisa Brooke along with Liam and Natalie Crowe have operated two of the highest achieving offices in the company.

They have undertaken the challenge of expanding Bark Busters throughout the USA and supporting the US family of Bark Busters.

With over 20 years combined experience and their excellent abilities in all areas of business, Bark Busters USA has taken off.

Andrew and Lisa Brooke

Andrew and Lisa Brooke discovered Bark Busters at an exhibition day and thought it was just the thing they needed for their dog, who was driving them crazy.

At the time, Bark Busters was opening an office in Canberra, the capital of Australia. Andrew and Lisa voiced much interest in the company, and after meeting with the company’s directors, they were chosen to take on the new office.

They are two of Bark Busters' top behaviorists. Their passion and love for dogs really shines through in their work, as does their professionalism and abilities in teaching dog owners.

Andrew and Lisa developed the Canberra region of Australia, and their success shows in their ample awards over the past years.

Andrew and Lisa have trained thousands of dogs. They have appeared on various TV shows and in many newspaper articles. Their experience and business savvy are among many attributes Lisa and Andrew have to help develop Bark Busters USA.

Liam and Natalie Crowe
Liam and Natalie were frustrated dog owners who had tried everything to train their dog, Buddy. Finally, they went to see their veterinarian for advice and he suggested Bark Busters.

Brett Silk, Sylvia's son, was called in. After one session, Liam and Natalie were amazed with the improvement in their dog.

At that time, Liam was a bank manager and Natalie was a travel consultant. They both loved dogs and remembered the enthusiasm their trainer Brett had exuded when he came to their home. So, they decided Bark Busters was their chance to move into a career in which they, like Brett, could find enjoyment and satisfaction.

After 12 months of intensive training, Liam and Natalie left Australia to take Bark Busters to New Zealand.

In their first 12 months, Liam and Nat trained over 500 dogs, with fantastic results. They were also featured on a segment of 60 Minutes, which dealt with training aggressive dogs. Since then, they have trained thousands of dogs and appeared on virtually every pet-related TV show.

Liam and Natalie had expanded Bark Busters throughout New Zealand, and they were looking for a new challenge when the USA was suggested to them. Liam and Natalie joined forces with Andrew and Lisa to start the USA operation.
