Puppy Training
Give Your Puppy a Great Start!
Puppies need guidance to learn good manners and develop a pleasant nature – after all, they are very similar to infants and toddlers. That’s where you come in! While it’s true that puppies receive much of their socialization from their mothers and litter-mates in the first 12 weeks of life, you will pick up where the mother left off in teaching and reinforcing proper behavior.
Puppy Fundamentals
Bark Busters trainers offer puppy training in your home. We help build a basic foundation of trust and respect in a safe and nurturing environment, including crate training, potty training, and leash training your puppy.
Get Started Today!
Bark Busters’ Puppy Management and Training Program gives you everything you need to successfully train your puppy at home, including how best to deal with the many common problems that occur in the first six months. It can be started a few days after your puppy has settled into their new home, but please note: puppies can get tired very quickly, so some training may only be able to be explained and not demonstrated on the day of your training session.

Hear from our Clients about Puppy Training with Bark Busters
Here's my story: I have a puppy GSD who's shockingly lazy, but his shepherdation (separation) anxiety was really out of control to the point where he could break out of his crate AND open my front door.
I would describe myself as highly dog knowledgable so I am VERY particular about the methods used by trainers. To each their own, but e-collars, prongs, etc are band-aids (or worseners) for most problems since most dog-owners don't really understand the timing/utility of these tools enough to ween off of them at any point. If your dog is a 100/10 lunatic, then I guess I get it :|
Anywho, I was honestly shocked to learn they don't even rely on clickers or treats, just straight up dog behavior and psychology, yet have the reviews they have.
Here's my summary. I am only 2 days post training, have received a comprehensive training plan with new crate recs, have gotten 5-7 minutes of a CALM dog in his crate once I've left (a miracle), and did nothing but learn to amend MY body languages and sounds.
Bonus that Anthony was an absolute delight to work with.
Hire them - you're welcome in advance ;)
Thank you so much and I’m looking forward to the future with Reiff.
Marc carefully and patiently explained how we need to communicate with our dog and it has been an absolute blessing. Our doodle is no longer biting or barking, and we are improving our walks every day.
Thank you so much, Marc!
Ryanne has also been very responsive and often checks in with us. Bark Busters is well worth the price, which is very affordable compared to similar companies who typically do not offer as many in-home training hours or follow-up appointments.
In addition he no longer jumps on me while I am at the computer and stays outside the areas I am in unless invited in as Marc showed me.
I still need a lot of work on me but Leonardo and Marc were wonderful.
I would recommend him to anyone.
Mark is a gem trainer, and I would recommend wholeheartedly to anyone!
I know this process takes time, but I feel so reassured knowing that if I encounter a difficulty, I can always contact Karen. No other company I have ever researched provides ongoing support for both me and my best buddy. I feel very secure, knowing that I am now in the beginning stages of making Milo, a happy stress-free dog🐶.
So grateful for Bark Busters!!!!
