Bark Busters: developed in Australia, our dog-friendly
training techniques leverage the same communications
methods -- body language and voice control -- that dogs
follow as part of their instinctual pack mentality. All training
takes place in the home. Our all-natural methods are
effective with any dog, any age -- even puppies. They are
ideal for solving behavioral issues such as aggression towards
people or other animals; curing embarrassing habits like barking, jumping up on people, scratching and whining at the back door; creating an obedient dog or puppy that will
happily walk on leash without tugging, sit or stay on command, and come immediately
when called; setting off-limit areas for your dog; reducing the stress of separation anxiety without the need for sedatives or drugs. Visit our website for more information or contact Janie Fairchild at 319-560-4580.
