Christie Price started the franchise unit in 2003, providing dog owners throughout south Charlotte with exceptional guidance and one-on-one in-home training. The Bark Busters franchise has trained hundreds of owners and hundreds of thousands of dogs around the world. Said Price, “The Bark Busters approach to training is very unique. It’s really about educating the human owners on a dog’s pack mentality and the crucial need for leadership. And since lack of leadership results in behavior problems (barking, jumping, separation anxiety, aggression), by teaching owners to demonstrate leadership you see an immediate change in behavior. It’s been very rewarding.”
