Bark Busters is the worldwide leader of in-home dog training. Over the past 30 years, we have trained more than 1 million dogs and their pet parents using our natural communication techniques that dogs understand.
I apply the same communication methods - body language and voice control - that dogs follow in their instinctive pack mentality.
I partner with you to resolve the most challenging dog behavior issues and address nuisance issues, including:
I also teach basic dog obedience and puppy training/management, all in the comfort of your home, where you and your dog are most comfortable and will learn the quickest and most effectively.
I have had a passion for dogs since an early age. In fact, as a teenager I rescued and rehabilitied animals. I worked with a variety of rescue organizations and efforts in the Hudson Valley, inspiring my family to join me who continue to volunteer to this day.
During this volunteer work I observed my fair share of dog training and dog trainers. While canine training was an interest of mine, I often would not see results with many of the trainers I encountered. Having studied psychology in college I wondered if there were different methods out there that could get a dog to want to change their behavior, instead methods I observed, which often included maipulating dogs with treats, or using tools that instilled fear.
It was around this time that I came across Bark Busters, through a good friend and fellow trainer. I did my own research on Bark Busters and what our founders, Danny and Sylvia Wilson, created through years of research, their love of dogs, and a passion for wanting to help dogs and owners. Our shared compassion for animals, and the amazing results I witnessed their method achieve, made me know there was nothing else I would rather do in my life. I made it my full-time job - my life's work - to help our four-legged friends, and the people that own them.
I truly love what I do, not only for the dogs, but also for dog owners and families. Bark Busters helps make powerful changes, and helps take stress away from a household. This work is extremely motivating!
