Home Dog Training Christchurch & Canterbury
Welcome to dog training Christchurch and Canterbury, I am Mark Gall your local Bark Busters Master Behaviour Therapist and Trainer. My passion for dogs, meeting people and helping out is why I love this vocation. If you love your work, then it’s not really work is it? Giving back to the dog community and seeing people reconnect with their loved pets brings me joy.
Over 20 years ago, my lifestyle needed a change, as my young family grew and my business at the time stole too much of my free time. Bark Busters New Zealand was looking to expand to Christchurch, we looked, we liked, we bought. Having never lived in a house without a dog, working with them seemed a natural progression. At the time I had a pushy Husky who local trainers had failed to help. This motivated me to become a trainer myself.
I also have access to a global family of Bark Busters, a network second to none. Word of mouth has spread my business far and wide. There isn’t a lot I haven’t seen but we are always evolving techniques to better your dog/human relationship. We cover behaviour from puppy management to anxious and aggressive issues with all dogs, all breeds, and all problems. We teach you, the owners, to teach your dogs in a manner they can relate to and one that is simple and easy for you to apply.
The 20 years of experience I have will benefit many people in places that can’t normally get to dog training.
If you are looking for professional dog training near you, then you have found the right place. The Bark Busters method is convenient, effective, free of pain or fear. I can address any behavioural or training issue you have with your dog.
Most common things I deal with are barking, separation anxiety, pulling on the lead, not coming when called, sibling rivalry, dog and human aggression, over exuberance, jumping up, puppy management, general obedience and more.
When I worked on farms, I’d see farmers become frustrated at great dogs who misinterpreted the tasks requested. In town it’s no different, I see owners struggle. Communication is the key to guide dogs to understand our human ways, with no harsh methods. It’s so satisfying to see timid dogs build confidence and pushy dogs settle, relax and become calm with their newfound family bond.
Basically, we can restore some sanity to your home with simple and easy steps through a program that keeps you on track. A win for the clients, a win for the dogs and a win for the vets and councils too, because a happy dog equals a happy family.
I look forward to hearing from you soon and talking about the issues you have with your dog and helping you to start your own experience. Our Bark Busters lifetime support guarantee means we are with you all the way.
