Top Ranking by Entrepreneur Magazine Showcases Success of Company’s Natural Dog-Training System
ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — Jan. 27, 2010— Bark Busters, the world’s largest dog-training company, was named the #1 Pet Franchise in America for 2009 by Entrepreneur magazine. The #1 ranking recognizes the effectiveness of Bark Busters’ natural training techniques, which can successfully train any dog of any age by leveraging the same communications methods—body language and voice control—that dogs follow as part of their instinctual pack mentality. The company’s top ranking is further confirmation of the large and growing business opportunities found in the $45+ billion pet industry.
“It is such an honor to be ranked as the best pet services franchise in America by Entrepreneur magazine,” said Liam Crowe, CEO and Master Dog Behavioral Therapist of Bark Busters USA. “This recognition is a tribute to not only the success of our dog-training system, but also the skill and dedication of our dog behavioral therapists. Every day, Bark Busters therapists throughout the country help dog owners to better communicate with their pets and better enjoy the human-canine bond.”
