Cannock Dog & Puppy Training & Behaviour Therapist

Welcome to dog training Cannock, my name is Sarah Coleman, and I am your local Bark Busters dog behaviour therapist and trainer.  If you're reading this, it is possible that you have one or more behaviour problems with your dog that you would like to change, you may be looking for obedience training, or puppy training for a new addition to your family.

I help you to resolve behaviour problems such as jumping up, unwanted barking, aggression to dogs or people, recall, digging, chewing, pulling on the lead and more. I tailor the training to your dog's individual behaviour problems and explain the reasons why your dog is showing the unwanted behaviour. I coach you on the training techniques to create a listing change in your dog's behaviour.

My training leverages your dog's natural instinct using canine communication of primarily voice tone and body language. My training is dog friendly, with no harsh methods, and I will teach you how to communicate with your dog, so they understand and know what you are asking of them. You will have the opportunity to practise your new training skills while I am with you, so that you are confident that you can continue to implement the training programme. The Bark Busters Support Guarantee provides you with peace of mind, knowing that I am only a phone call or email away, and I will, return free of charge, to support you further for any recurrence or new behaviour problems for the term of the support you purchase. 

If you are looking for professional dog training near you in Cannock, then you have found the right place. My training programme plan can be incorporated within daily walks or during your daily life, setting aside just 15 to 20 minutes daily, even in small 5-minute sessions, and with this, most clients see a substantial change during the very first lesson. With my free ongoing support and with your commitment to practice daily, you will find that you can enjoy your dog so much more.

Whether you have welcomed a rescue dog, or a new puppy, or added another dog to your family and issues have developed, the new skill I teach you will allow you to understand your dog's behaviour and have the methods to redirect them to more positive behaviours.  

Don't hesitate to call or contact me to start your new happy life with your dog or puppy.

About me
I was born in Southeast London and grew up with dogs always around me, mostly small ones, but often up to 7 of them. Over the years during my early working life in a variety of roles within companies, I realised that dogs needed to be an essential part of my life. To satisfy this, I began working with local rescue groups fostering dogs in need, some successfully rehomed and some sadly who never left. Many of them, had behaviour problems, trauma, anxiety, aggression, barking to much, toileting indoors or other unwanted behaviours caused by their prior individual situations. Most I could help, but realised I needed expert help with a lovely chocolate labrador called Coco who was reactive to dogs and was a very strong puller on lead. 

I found Bark Busters and set up an appointment for us to start work with Coco. The trainer, Andy, was really understanding and together we worked on helping Coco to learn to trust my decisions through her natural communication. Her behaviour was explained to me and with simple training techniques, and the new games, it was enjoyable for both of us.  A tailor-made training programme was put in place for my daily use, and it worked wonders. From the outset I saw a huge improvement in her behaviour and within a few short weeks, Coco was able to walk around the streets in my local area ignoring other dogs with my encouragement to keep her focus on me and stay at my side without pulling. Coco was one of the rescue dogs that never left. She is now one of my four labradors who are a joy to live with.

Having moved to beautiful South Staffordshire, following changes in my own life, I have been able to become a Bark Busters dog behaviour therapist and trainer and now have a fabulous career working with dogs.
