I have loved and enjoyed all types of dogs my entire life. There is nothing more precious to me than looking into the warm, loving eyes of my dog. I experienced the world of dog training at a very early age attending shows with my grandfather, William F. Gilroy. His life was dedicated to breeding, showing and hunting with his English Setters. He was also a well- renowned judge in the show ring and once let me show his champion, “Dixie.” I found his world fascinating, and knew I would follow in his footsteps!
My life continued into the world of animals when I started a business with my husband (a racehorse driver) that we built over the next 15 years. I worked daily with the interactions of horses and realized how unique and special each animal is. When I left this industry, I went back to school to practice dental hygiene for 15 years. I loved working with people and making their lives better.
Then my daughter (thank you) found BARK BUSTERS for me. Could it be true that I could work at my life’s passion? Could I work with people and dogs and make both of their lives better? Absolutely! BARK BUSTERS is a whole new world of dog training that no one else offers!
How do I know it works? Because I was in your shoes when I rescued my dog, Desiree almost 9 years ago. She defied everything I had ever used to train my dogs. Desiree would be the best dog in any group obedience class I enrolled her in but our house and neighborhood were an entirely different story. I tried many training methods and personal trainers and experienced incredible frustration before we experienced Bark Busters. I now have a dog that knows I am the “pack leader” of our house. She listens through voice control and body language and no longer lunges at people and dogs in our neighborhood. Thanks to the Bark Busters humane methods I have the dogs I always knew Desiree was. She listens, comes when she’s called on the first command and walks in a well-behaved manner.
