Hello, Washington, DC and Maryland dog lovers!

My name is Andy Pascoe, and I am a certified dog behavioral therapist and dog trainer with Bark Busters.

If you've been struggling with training and communicating with your dog, well, I've been in your shoes.

I picked up my dog Bento when he was a puppy. I knew at the time I was no expert, but I was confident that I was completely prepared. I spent my days and nights dedicating myself to reading books and researching online how to raise a puppy. I quickly learned that I was in way over my head.

I struggled in nearly every aspect of raising a puppy. I grew frustrated, tired, and nearly half of my DC apartment had been destroyed! I began to seek help, and through a mutual friend I was introduced to Bark Busters.

Since applying the Bark Busters principals, Bento and I have been able to communicate and build an incredible relationship, well beyond what I thought was possible. I was amazed and wanted to learn more, and ultimately decided to dedicate myself to helping others overcome the struggles I encountered first hand.

I became a Bark Busters trainer not only for my love of dogs, but for my love of people and helping them solve their problems. I left my successful career in Information Technology to help you and your furry companion! I now conduct in-home, private, behavioral and obedience dog training customized for you and your dog.

My training is done in your home -- where your dog is most relaxed, there are less distractions, and most problems occur.

If you're interested in learning more, please explore my personal Bark Busters website, and feel free to email or call, I'd love to help!

Andy is Top notch. We have an anxious rescue dog who pulled extremely hard on her leash, but after Andy’s training and guidance, she has already made enormous progress. The indoor and outdoor training techniques Andy taught and guided us through have been easy to replicate day after day, and have proved to be game changers for us and our dog. Andy...

Andy was very professional and knowledgeable. He taught me how to communicate with my dog, and the results became apparent almost immediately. My dog would become aggressive/excited at the mere sight of a dog on our walks. After our training session we went out on a walk to test his training, and he was totally calm. Andy teaches you how to train y...

Andy has been everything you could hope for in a dog trainer. Knowledgeable, attentive, generous with his time, and results-driven while articulating techniques in a way that both you and your dog can understand. He understands the psychology behind why a dog behaves in a certain way and is able to train you as the leader on how to overcome those i...

Andy is an absolute lifesaver. My puppy was chewing on everything and wasn’t able to understand the word “no.” The tones and body language I learned yesterday are already working. She now knows not to chew the remote and my slippers, will stay at a distance if I’m cooking on a hot stove, and will come to me whenever I want. This has all happened in...

Andy was fantastic. Within 2 1/2 hours he achieved much more than me and 3 trainers have done over 4 years. By the time Andy left, my dog Teddy was well on his way to being a well behaved dog. It was worth every penny.

Changed both mine and my dog's lives. My dog has seen amazing improvements in just one session, and on top of that, she looks happier too. Andy helped with aggression towards other dogs and separation anxiety. The results were so impressive that it genuinely felt like I was with a different dog. Highly, highly recommend.

Andy at Bark Busters DC was great. We had an incredibly productive first session and we've already seen great results. It's also great that he can be accessed via text between sessions should any little questions arise.

Andy was AMAZING - I now call him the dog Guru. He took my rescued, timid pup and turned him into a civilized and well trained companion. I highly recommend Andy to friend and family.

My puppy is only 4 lbs, she is a lot of work. Since we got her during COVID, I tried training her myself. I was not seeing any consistency in her behavior. That's when I turned to Bark Busters. The staff is professional and Andy did a terrific job showing us how to get our pup's attention and communicate with her. I saw an immediate change in her b...

I was truly impressed with my interaction with BARK BUSTERS! Andy was extremely knowledgeable and patient. I must admit that I was expecting some rough looking HERCULES dude ?; but instead I got the "boy next door." So in my mind, I was like how in the world is this guy going to be able to control my pitbull if she so happens to get loose; but Andy...
