You’re thinking that you don’t want to go to an obedience class because you don’t believe a “one size fits all” approach is going to work for your pet. And, besides, who has the time or patience for a weekly class with 15 other barking dogs?
You don’t want to send your dog away to one of those doggie “boot camps” because you’re afraid his spirit might be broken, or fear that he’ll return behaving more like a robot than a family pet.
And you certainly don’t want someone coming into your house and spinning your dog in circles until he becomes a whimpering shell of himself.
Did you know that your dog probably doesn’t realize he’s misbehaving, or understand 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.
The problem is, your dog doesn’t understand your rules, and he makes bad decisions as a result.
So how do you get your dog’s behavior 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?
Ask your Oakland County veterinarian about Bark Busters Home Dog Training. No one is more familiar with the effectiveness of the local training alternatives than our own veterinarians, and those in Oakland County overwhelmingly recommend Bark Busters. In fact, Bark Busters has trained the professionals at over fifty veterinary facilities in the tri-county area, where they use our techniques to work more safely and effectively with confused or upset dogs.

Great experience, great interaction with dogs. –Casey Rhodes, Rochester Hills (German Shepherd Dog & Mixed Breed)
