I have been a dog lover since childhood. I grew up with two dogs of my own, Smeagol and Wookiee. They were both Bichon Frises who needed lots of care and maintenance, but those little furballs were my best friends. Whether I was coming home to my own dogs, or visiting some friends with their own furry buddies, I was always the first on the floor to introduce myself by letting him know I was there to play. Now, its me and my rescue, a white labrador named Bruce, who is a perfect little gentleman.
In his past life, Bruce was a stud for a breeder. He was mostly left outdoors and experienced little to no socialization, attention, exercise, training, or care. He was largely a business asset to them, and not much more. He didn’t know his name, and he wasn’t used to the love and security of having anyone stable to rely upon. After being rescued early in the pandemic and stuck inside with me for over a year, he had developed a very strong case of separation anxiety, and a lingering weight issue.
After months and months of trying to wing it with internet research, I had made no substantive progress. I knew I needed professional guidance. I wanted someone who stood by their service and I really needed results. Cue me calling in BarkBusters for the Life-of-the-Dog Guarantee.
My BarkBusters trainers taught me how to Speak Dog, communicate more effectively, and put my dog on a path to a long and healthy life. If it hadn’t made so much sense, I would have called it magic. But it wasn’t magic; it was highly intuitive and incredibly effective.
Bruce is happier, calmer, and more independent than ever. He has also lost about 25 pounds, has more energy, and fewer allergies. It was a truly life changing experience for us.
At my core, I am a lifelong educator. Ever since I was a student myself, I have been engaged in roles where I was sharing what I knew with others. I have been a private tutor, a wrestling coach, a test-preparation instructor, a special-needs teacher/mentor, and a high school math teacher.
Once I learn something, I feel a need to share it with others who can benefit from the knowledge, and that is exactly what lead to me joining BarkBusters. After seeing firsthand what BarkBusters did for me and Bruce, I couldn’t pass up an opportunity to share that blessing with others. I made the leap, and I’ve been taught and mentored by some of the very best in the world.
I’m excited and inspired to share Bark Busters with you and your furry family members. Please reach out to me and let me help you discover the joy of “Speaking Dog!”
