Are You Struggling with Your Dog's Behavior?
Bark Busters trainers are experts in behavior modification, backed by over 30 years of experience helping thousands of dogs. Your New York City Bark Busters trainer will create a customized solution to address your dog's specific behavioral challenges. Frequent issues we heard about from our clients include:
- Aggressive behavior in dogs is often learned and typically arises from feelings of vulnerability, fear, or a perceived lack of protection. It may develop as a survival instinct or result from confusion about the dog's role within its pack. Identifying the root cause is essential in addressing what triggers your dog’s aggression.
- Separation anxiety in dogs is a complex behavioral issue with negative consequences. Dogs can grow accustomed to having their families around and may become confused and stressed when they are left alone. Addressing this issue early can prevent significant stress for both dogs and their owners.
- Sibling rivalry in a multi-dog household is a serious issue many dog owners face. Bark Busters trainers can identify the underlying causes of rivalry and work to resolve them before they escalate.
No Dog is Beyond Help with Bark Busters
Most severe dog behaviors can be corrected with the expert guidance of a professional Bark Busters trainer. Our unique dog behavioral modification therapy helps dogs unlearn unwanted behaviors and restructure their responses in a way that is clear and understandable for both the dog and the owner.
We can help with any age, any breed, and with any issue - even foundational puppy training. But especially if you need to relieve the stress of severe dog behavior issues - call us today!
Is Your Dog's Aggression Becoming a Challenge?
Dog aggression, whether directed at people or other animals, is not a fixed personality trait but a learned behavior. It often originates from fear, which, when combined with adrenaline and insufficient training, can create risky situations. At Bark Busters New York City, we believe that every dog - regardless of breed, age, or history - can be helped.
Understand the Cause of Aggression
If your dog is showing signs of aggression, seeking professional help is essential. Our dog training team is committed to identifying the root causes of your dog’s aggression and providing effective strategies to address and manage the behavior.
Types of Dog Aggression
Aggression in dogs can take many forms and can be directed towards strangers, owners, other dogs, or other animals entirely. Types of dog aggression include:
- Territorial aggression
- Food-related aggression
- Possessive aggression
- Fear or anxiety aggression
Prevent and Resolve Dog Aggression
If you are struggling with your dog's aggression, do your best to proactively prevent situations that may lead to danger, until you can get the help you and your dog both need. Manage your dog's exposure to problematic scenarios, as prevention is always the best solution.
At Bark Busters New York City, we have vast experience handling all forms of aggressive dog behavior. From resource guarding to human and dog-on-dog aggression, we’ve helped countless clients find effective solutions. If your dog is showing signs of aggression, don’t wait - let us help.

At Bark Busters New York City, we clear up the miscommunication between dogs and humans at the root of many behavioral issues by teaching everyone to speak the same language – dog!

This means faster, longer-lasting solutions for you and your dog.
Dogs learn best in a familiar, safe environment, free of outside distractions and disruptions. That is why we come directly to your home, on your schedule to build an effective foundation for better behavior. We work first to build an effective foundation for better behavior. We teach you how to communicate with your dog. Dogs naturally live in families and look to their family leaders for guidance, safety, and love. Most people don't know how to appeal to a dog's natural sense of leadership or communication. We teach you how to use friendly, canine leadership and to "speak dog" using your body language, voice tones, and timing so you and your dog communicate better! You will see results. You want to see a change in your dog’s behavior, preferably sooner rather than later.
Any Breed. Any Age. Any Issue. Get Started Today!
