COMMON PROBLEM BEHAVIORS IN DOGS

Most behavioral issues are learned based on both experiences and environment. That’s why in home dog training is so effective because this is where most behavioral issues occur and it’s where your dog feels the safest. Because your dog can’t speak English and you can’t “speak dog” many miscommunications occur. With Bark Busters, we can teach Washington, DC dog owners how to communicate with your dog in a language they understand instinctively, and create a training plan tailored to your dogs unique personality and your individual training goals.
