Success Stories from Bark Busters Franchise Owners

I was tired of the corporate world and wanted to finally go out and do something that I had a passion for and that I could do as my own business. That's everyone's dream, right? I was literally ready to open my own Pretzel Stand on some street corner, just to get out of that corporate life!

However, before I hastily left my high-paying corporate job, I wanted to make sure that I chose a business that would be a good match for me. I wanted to find a franchise where I could be in business for myself, but not by myself, and one in which I could excel NOT just because of my skills, experience and finances, but mostly due to the interests and hobbies that I have.

When I found Bark Busters, right away it matched my passion and love I have for dogs. I chose Bark Busters over the other franchises because I love to work with dogs. All my free time was previously spent volunteering at the local Humane Society shelter and working with the Labrador Retriever Rescue of Florida rescue group. It was a match made in heaven.

Now, I could work with people and their dogs and help the dogs become better-behaved companion animals and avoid being sent to the rescue groups and shelter due to behavior problems that can be fixed. It is much more fulfilling than my corporate job, and I look forward to work EVERY day. I tell people that the one thing I wish I could do over with the business is to have started it sooner!

Bark Busters allows me to do what I am most passionate about: help families enjoy their pets by providing dog behavioral therapy and training using natural, holistic, and humane training methods in the pet's home. The comprehensive Bark Busters training along with a master's degree in Adult Education enable me to be uniquely qualified to work with all individuals and their pets.

I decided to buy a Bark Busters franchise for several reasons. I love dogs. I love people. I am very good at one-on-one training. I enjoy selling. I enjoy building something from nothing. Bark Busters allows me to use all of these skills. I felt that Bark Busters was an excellent international company providing an excellent service in a recession-proof multi-billion dollar industry. This is the "next great business" and I wanted to get in as early as possible.

I love being my own boss and at the same time having a system and home office support. I could never work on anybody's schedule other than my own.

It is great helping people to enjoy their pets. I feel like I'm contributing to their family. I have had other successful businesses but nothing has given me this much opportunity to make a good living, and allowed me to have this much fun.

Pete and I were both working for "Corporate America" and getting tired of working very hard for someone else. We wanted to work hard for ourselves. We also got to a point in our life where we started questioning what we were contributing to the world. We both wanted to make a difference, to give something back. Our love and passion was with dogs. Buying our Bark Busters franchise was one of the best things we have ever done. We now get paid to do what we love and we save dogs' lives almost every day. Our life is rewarding and meaningful.

The Bark Busters system teaches owners how to manage their pets' behavior. Using techniques that are non-harsh, based on the way that dogs learn, and logical, Bark Busters offers entrepreneurs the opportunity to take charge of their future in a business that can give pet owners control of their pets, and the emotional drama associated with pets that live by their own rules in our world.
