Ali Told Me to Write This...

For years...and I know I'm not alone...I've heard "...Well you cant teach an old dog new tricks." We grow to accept these statements and this is the purpose of Mythstoppers, stopping the oldest most unexpected of Myths...Is it impossible to teach an old dog new tricks?

We learned this morning...No, it is totally possible.

Ali definately not alone in trying everything under the sun to get her pooch Baxter to stop jumping up on people especially when the doorbell rings. In come the Bark Busters (I am sooo excited I just learned how to insert that link) with their unique method of training. I believe the wording was, treating them like they are in the wild... letting them know who is boss in the house.

After about 5 mins Baxter learned not to be jumping and this is done by simply saying " BAH!" whenever he jumps up, not BAAA like a sheep though, it is supposed to Mimic what the leader of the pack would do if one of the members was stepping out of line "BAH!"

To our amazement something so simple worked!! and the similar theory can be applied to many different problems pet owners face with their pooches. There is definately a little more to it but the Bark Busters works.

The Conclusion for Myth Stoppers today...

You CAN teach an old dog new tricks its just a matter of finding the right teacher...

Hi- I was listening and I was interested in the Bark Busters- I was wondering if it really works. They sound like really nice people.

Yes, they are nice people and from the session my husband and I had with Baxter and Bark Busters, they were fantastic and it really did work. I have recommended it to all of my friends who have dogs. Even those who think their dog’s don’t have problems, they do as they bark and jump all over people and lick and nip toes.
Good luck!
