Bark Busters at a Glance

Bark Busters is Australia’s most successful in-home dog training company and has grown to be the largest, most trusted home dog training company in the world, with offices in eight countries... and more to come.

Founded in 1989 by Sylvia and Danny Wilson, our superior training methods, support system, and passionate franchisees have fuelled our expansion to eight countries New Zealand, UK, Japan, Taiwan, USA, Canada and Israel.  In 2002, Bark Busters won the Australia Post Small Business of the Year Award. In 2007, BRW magazine listed Bark Buster’s at number 5 in their top 10 franchise list. Our training methods and business model work. Our franchisees are successful and if you follow the system, you will be too.

Bark Busters are specialists in all dog and puppy behavioural problems.  No harsh methods are used and we are vet recommended.

Puppy schools are recommended to all new puppy owners by veterinarians everywhere and Bark Busters are the leaders in providing this important service so that families and dogs have the best possible start in life.  Our motto is “Happy Dogs, Happy Families”.

We will train you to use your business and organisational skills along with your great personality, to work with something you love. In your Initial training we will teach you about dogs but first and foremost you need to have an empathy with people. Dogs can create havoc in families with their bad behaviour. Counselling and coaching of owners plays a large part in bringing about peace and harmony to a previously stressed household. Ongoing support is provided.

Bark Busters' therapists use techniques to encourage the dog to use his brain and, at the same time, to satisfy the dog's need for pack leadership. In the wild, dogs have a pecking order determined by their dominance in the group. When dogs perceive themselves to be higher up the pecking order than the owner(s), it usually results in a dysfunctional pack. The result can be stressful for both owner and dog.
