Buck and Ruth Skinner

Welcome to Bark Busters Home Dog Training!

We both grew up in the Ann Arbor/Saline area. Ruth, after having spent many years in the corporate/administrative world, was looking for a more rewarding profession where she could make a difference. Buck, currently a pilot with Northwest Airlines, was looking for something they could do together when he was not flying . . . and we found Bark Busters!!

We grew up with dogs. Out of mutual love for “man’s best friend,” we are very excited that we can make a difference for families that are experiencing behavior issues with their dogs.

The concept of working with a dog’s behavior is something that families are beginning to understand. The number one reason why dogs are euthanized or surrendered to a shelter is in response to behavioral problems that easily could have been solved with training. Our goal is to work with families and within the community to help minimize the number of dogs being surrendered. People put too much time, money and love into their pets to let a behavioral issue get in the way.

We come to your home because we feel that every family and dog(s) have different needs. It creates less stress for your dog(s) and they learn and retain best in their own environment where problems exist.

So, Dog Owners Get Ready! Bark Busters will change your life in just 2 hours!

Do you want to stop your dog's barking?
Does your dog walk you?
Does your dog decide he/she is the leader when the “male” figure leaves the home?
Who answers the front door? You or your dog?
Are you tired from your dog jumping on you and/or your guests?
Is your canine stealing/chewing your shoes, children’s toys, socks?

Bark Busters Home Dog Training will teach you how to effectively communicate with your dog in a way that they understand without any harsh methods. Most importantly, we offer a Life of the Dog Guarantee so you can call us for advice or to come back to your home whenever you need us and you will not be charged!

We look forward to hearing from you.
