Meet Donald, Your Local Professional Dog Trainer
In-Home Dog Training in Philadelphia, Ardmore, Havertown, Media & Wayne PA!
When people ask me what do you do for a living, I smile and tell them I am a Dog Behaviorist. Usually they will say, "you mean a dog trainer?". I then respond, "no, more of a people trainer for their dog".
Welcome. I am Donald Cohen, your Bark Busters Dog Trainer and Dog Behavioral Therapist in Philadelphia. Before becoming a Bark Busters trainer, I was a television marketing director for 10 years. Then I obtained a Masters Degree in Education and spent 13 years as a principal and teacher in private schools. At that point I went on a personal adventure to decide what I wanted to do with the remainder of my working life. In reviewing my primary interests, I realized how much animals had played an important part in my life both as a child and an adult. I remembered how animals were always attracted to me, seeking comfort and affection. And since I had always had a dog in my life, I began to look for a way to have my own business that involved helping people and their dogs.
After many months of research it became clear to me that Bark Busters Home Dog Training offered me the opportunity for a satisfying new career helping both people and their treasured pets using the most humane and natural methods. There's not a day that goes by when I don't use my educational background in working with my clients and their dogs. Because I am educating the humans in the household on how to be their dog's leader, I am giving them the lifetime tools for a wonderful and fulfilling relationship with their dog.
I often ask my clients a question: "What was the worst day you spent with your dog?" After they answer, I ask them, "what was the best day you ever spent with your dog?". Then I tell them I am going to help experience far more of the later than the former!
