Michelle Bailey 

Behaviour Therapist & Grand Master Trainer

I have been an animal caretaker for my entire life. I first came to Bark Busters as a desparate client. My Cattle Dog mix was showing increasing aggression to people and dogs. All my usual knowledge and tricks weren’t cutting it! I was 3 months pregnant with my daughter, and I didn’t know what to do! 
Bark Busters literally changed my life. From the first lesson, I realized that there is an effective solution! I am happy to report that same dog lived a long and happy life, growing up alongside my kiddo! 

No case is hopeless! There is a solution for every dog. Contact me today!

What I love about my job

I love that “lightbulb” moment when dog owners realize there is a better way. You don’t need to struggle with your dog. I’ve been there. I know what it’s like. Let me help you understand what’s going on, help you educate your dog, and give you the peace of mind that you always have support.

Why I became a dog trainer

I became a trainer to share that same joy with other people. “You seem to really love what you do” is something I hear from many of my clients. They are correct! I adore helping dogs and people. Nothing gives me more energy!
