In-Home Dog Training in Greater Atlanta North!

Welcome. I am Cody Murphy, your local Bark Busters trainer in Greater Atlanta North, including Midtown, Buckhead, and Smyrna. One of my passions has always been to work with dogs. Before I started training dogs, I worked in the Information Technology field as a contractor for the Department of Energy. I also have my Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology. My studies in Psychology have helped me to understand the way dogs think, and to have the patience necessary to work with these awesome animals. I currently have two dogs, an English Bulldog, and a Plott Hound that I rescued.

When I first adopted my Plott Hound, he was a little aggressive, never listened, always had to be first when going up and down the stairs and in and out of doors. In other words, he was in charge, not me.

After my first training session with Bark Busters, I was blown away! This training method worked, and in just one lesson, my dog was transformed. I was so impressed, I knew I had to become a Bark Busters dog trainer myself! I am committed 100% to helping all my clients to the best of my ability because I never want to see a dog separated from their family. Bark Busters is dedicated to preventing dogs from being euthanized and assisting dog owners to overcome unwanted dog behaviors.

...His method has been incredibly effective—our adopted, untrained dog now has a solid foundation, and with consistency, the progress has been amazing.

If you're looking for a knowledgeable and supportive trainer, Cody is the one to call!
...We have a 13 year old rescue who was leash, dog and baby-aggressive and within one session + the home exercises Cody got our dog completely reformed. He is a totally different dog now than he was before we started working with Cody and we are forever grateful for him! Cody is also super friendly and responsive, overall a fantastic trainer who has given us the most peace of mind regarding our dog. Can’t say enough good things, thanks again Cody!
Cody was great! We had an initial 2-hour session followed by a one-hour session several weeks later. His training has done wonders for my puppy and me (yes, I received training too)! Cody came to my apartment and we worked with Bucky inside the apartment as well as outside on the leash. Having him come to me was super convenient and also allowed us to work in our normal environment. Cody's training was more of a partnership with Bucky and me than it was a tutorial, and the training tracking list he left me provided an effective roadmap for me to ensure I was reinforcing what we learned after our session. Bucky almost immediately took to the commands and techniques Cody taught us, and it put an end to his aggression toward other dogs, his pulling on the leash when walked, and his rushing to enter and exit doorways. His transformation has been wonderful! I am so glad that I decided to work with Cody while
We adopted a four year old "show" dog that had NO training. Cody had her calm, focused and walking on a leash almost immediately. He gave us homework to keep us accountable and we love the focused time with Bellini. Talk to Cody - he's the best!!!!
We adopted a 2 year old rescue who had only lived in a shelter. He had never been trained or on a leash. Cody had him under control the minute he walked in the door. Remi is such a sweet and fun boy to have around the house, on a leash and even off leash!!!!
Cody was knowledgeable and great guy to work with
I am working on changing my behavior HaHa
Cody was great
Dog is doing better already
Cody was amazing and extremely knowledgeable. He gave us a very thorough lesson and we were immediately relieved. Thank you Bark Busters!
Cody was amazing! We called Bark Busters because my husband and I needed to learn how to help our 2 rescues. Cody spent 3 hours with us understanding our dogs, our routines and the issues we wanted to address and then showed us how to implement techniques to correct issues. By the end of the session, they were already responding and our first day of "homework" was amazing. I'm really looking forward to our next sessions with Cody to reinforce what we have already worked on and address some other behaviors later. If you need help with your dogs, CALL CODY!
Cody was thorough and easy to work with. He gave us clear directions that we’ve been implementing since yesterday and we already see a HUGE improvement. Our dogs are both getting better at respecting boundaries and listening to our direction. Looking forward to the challenge ahead and learning more things to help make our home the best it can be
Cody was wonderful. Looking forward to working with him more
Cody’s instructions were very clear.
Cody is amazing! He is so thorough in his evaluation on what your dogs needs and really wants to get to the root of the issue. My pup is a rescue who is the sweetest boy but had no leash manners (pulling, lunging, barking). After our first session I already can see a MAJOR difference walking as well as controlling boundaries within my house. I can’t wait for our next session and highly recommend reaching out for any training needs! No BS and no temporary treat training!
My dog’s behavior is already improved. I realize that I need to keep working with her but I did not expect to see results this quickly.
We had a great time and learned some new things to try with our new puppy.
My dog is a totally different dog!!!! He was firm with Bear and my dog responded right away. I am amazed at what bark busters did in one lesson, and this is my second time with a trainer! I took 7 seven lessons with a different Woodstock company, and again after ONE lesson with bark busters, my dog is listening!!!
Cody was awesome! He listened to all of our concerns and thoroughly addressed them. He explained dog behavior in a way we had not heard before- super helpful. Literally did the commands he taught us and within 4 tries our dog understood and responded appropriately. We look forward to working through this with our dog and getting better behavior because of it. Thank you Cody!!!
Very pleased. Cody was personable, professional, and provided several practical exercises.
We had good time, Received so many good training tools. Cody demonstrated everything patiently and explained the reason behind everything that was done.
Very pleased with the lesson. Virgo of mom with puppies really brought home the idea of boundaries. Cody was clear and concise. It’s up to us to make work with our dogs.
She is a whole new dog after the first session with Cody!! cannot wait to continue to implement the techniques he taught us to help with everything we were worried about with her!! highly recommend Cody for any issues you have with your pup!
