Unfortunately, children make up the disproportionate amount of people bitten by dogs each year.

Many of these dog bites are preventable with one simple safety tip: 🚫 NEVER leave young children or babies unsupervised with a dog. Ever.

Remember, just like humans, not all dogs feel comfortable being joyfully greeted!

Dogs primarily communicate via body language and voice tones. In turn, our body language is always communicating when we meet a dog.

Calm, respective energy allowing a dog to approach you, sniff, while you remain still allows dogs to feel safer.

There is no dog breed immune to biting. And no breed inherently dangerous.

Dog bites are about situations, not stereotypes.
Instead of focusing on breed, we focus on:
✔️ Behavior
✔️ Early intervention
✔️ Owner responsibility
✔️ Proper training & communication

📣 Breed-specific laws don’t prevent bites—but education and compassion do.

Let’s advocate for safer communities built on understanding, not fear. 🐕

Dog bite prevention starts before there’s ever a problem. Dogs thrive when they understand what’s expected—and feel secure in their environment.

🧡 Early socialization
🧡 Calm, consistent training
🧡 Boundaries that build trust
🧡 A safe, loving home

Bark Busters teaches you to train in a language your dog understands—so your dog learns to feel confident, not confused. When dogs know how to navigate the world safely, biting becomes less likely. And the bond? Even stronger. 🐶

National Dog Bite Prevention Week is the second full week of April each year.

Americans share a deep love for dogs - nearly 90 million dogs call the U.S. home. They are loyal companions, playmates, and cherished members of the family. However, despite their widespread affection, dogs can still bite.

The good news is that most dog bites are preventable. With responsible pet ownership, education, and awareness - particularly around children, who are most often bitten - we can significantly reduce the risk of dog bites.

Follow us this week to learn more about dog bite prevention.

Did you know? Around 20% of dog owners report struggling with destructive behaviors like chewing, digging, or tearing things up?

But here’s the thing — dogs aren’t destroying your shoes because they’re “naughty” or “spiteful.” Most of the time, destructive behavior is simply their way of saying:
• “I’m bored!”
• “I’m anxious!”
• “I have too much energy!”

Dogs need both mental and physical stimulation to stay happy and calm. Without it, they’ll find their own “fun” — and it usually involves your furniture!
📷 Quick Tips to Curb Destructive Behavior:
• Provide structured walks and playtime to burn off energy.
• Rotate toys to keep things interesting.
• Use training exercises to challenge their brain.
• Create a calm environment with clear boundaries.

Still struggling? You’re not alone! Bark Busters is here to help you get to the root of the behavior and restore peace in your home.

Reach out today — let’s turn destruction into good behavior!

Look, nobody wants to be out walking and dodging doggie 💩 landmines, you know what I mean?!

It’s International Pooper Scooper Week, and although it’s not glamorous, it’s important to pick up your pet’s p**p. Animal waste has pathogens that are harmful to both humans and pets. Dog p**p can contain bacteria and parasites, which spread into the water supply if left.
Even consider using recycled or compostable bags ♻️ as a more sustainable option than traditional plastic bags. They reduce reliance on new plastic production and minimize waste sent to landfills or incineration. 🌎

Listen, hoomans… I saw you swap the sugar for salt in your coffee ☕🤢. I watched you tape that fake spider to the wall 🕷️ (not cool). But when you pretended to throw the ball and didn’t… THAT was just mean. 😭🎾💔
The joke’s on you, though—I still got treats for being cute. 🍖😏
Happy April Drools Day to all my fellow pups! Hope your hoomans don’t trick you out of belly rubs today! 🐾🐕💛

🐶🎉 Happy National Terrier Day! 🎉🐶
Terriers: small but MIGHTY. 💪 These little dynamos were literally born to dig, chase, and outsmart their humans on a daily basis. One second, they’re snuggling in your lap, and the next—BOOM!—they’ve tunneled halfway to China or are leading the neighborhood bark choir. 🎤🐾

Let’s be real—owning a terrier is like living with a tiny CEO who refuses to take orders. 😆 But that’s where Bark Busters comes in!
✅ Tired of your terrier thinking they run the house? (Spoiler: They think they do.)
✅ Want to stop the constant barking before your neighbors move out? 🚪🏃‍♂️
✅ Need help convincing them that your rules actually matter?

We got you. Terriers are smart, but with the right training, they can be well-behaved and still keep their feisty charm. 😉 https://www.barkbusters.com/dog-training/melbourne-palmbay?utm_source=GMBListing&utm_medium=WebsiteClicks&utm_campaign=2-11-012

Your dog isn’t ‘stubborn’—you’re just speaking the wrong language. 🤷‍♂️

🐶🎉 Happy National Puppy Day! 🎉🐶
Ah, puppies. They’re cute, they’re cuddly, and they somehow turn your house into a crime scene in under 10 minutes. 🤦‍♂️🐾
One minute, they’re snuggling in your lap. The next? They’ve turned your favorite shoes into modern art, dug a hole to Narnia in your backyard, and decided your couch is their personal chew toy. (RIP to all the lost remotes. 📺🦷)
But here’s the thing—your puppy isn’t bad, they’re just… a tiny tornado of curiosity with zero life skills. And that’s where your Bark Busters dog trainer comes in! 🦸‍♂️🐕

✅ Stop the jumping before they take out your grandma
✅ Teach them that not everything is edible (looking at you, sock thieves)
✅ Help you survive the "cute but chaotic" phase without losing your mind

So, if your puppy is running your house like a tiny, fluffy dictator—don’t worry, we got you. 💪 Do you have a wild one at home? 😂

🐶🗣️ Real Communication = Real Results! 🗣️🐾
