Just as there are many breeds of dogs, there are different types of tails too! Some dogs have short tails, other dogs have long, and some have no tails at all. What dogs have no tails?

Most dogs considered tail-less actually have tiny, stumpy tails usually called bobbed tails. These breeds include the Brittany Spaniel, Braque du Bourbonnais, Pembroke Welsh corgi, Australian stumpy tail cattle dog, Boston terrier, English bulldog, and French bulldog.

Bark Busters can help you train any breed, issue, age or tail 🐩🐾

If your dog struggles with car rides 🚘, it might be more about anxiety than motion sickness! Here are a few tips to help your furry friend:

- Conditioning: Start with positive associations with the car using stress-free activities like feeding, chewing on a favorite bone, or brushing. Gradually increase exposure with short, enjoyable trips.

- Secure Travel: Use a crate or dog seat belt to help your canine companion feel safe and prevent them from feeling overwhelmed by the scenery whizzing by.

- Breaks: Take frequent stops to let your dog stretch and relax and a quick walk or play before leaving and upon arrival can help minimize stress.

- Comfort: Ensure the car is cool and well-ventilated.

Addressing anxiety can often help more than treating motion sickness directly. Bark Busters is always available to help diagnose the issue and create a plan to help 🤝

Meet Chico, a 7-month-old Dogo Argentina, and Marley, a 13-year-old Boxer from Port St. Lucie, who are now training with Bark Busters Treasure Coast! 🐾

Chico's nipping and biting have been a big concern for his family. He barks excessively at guests and when crated, especially with visitors around. Marley, the wise older sibling, used to be quiet as a mouse, but Chico’s arrival has changed that. She now corrects him strongly when he gets too close, even biting him and breaking the skin a few times. Marley’s also dealing with occasional incontinence indoors, though that has improved since Chico joined the family.

Chico loves playing rough, especially with their daughter, and wants to engage with Marley constantly. On leash, he pulls a bit toward squirrels but is otherwise non-reactive to other dogs. With Bark Busters' help, this dynamic duo is on their way to a more harmonious life together. Let’s cheer them on as they learn and grow! 💪🐶

Meet Max, a 3.5-year-old Chihuahua Poodle Mix who's having a tough time adjusting to his new home. 🐾

Max used to just bark a little when his family left, eventually settling down, but since moving to a new unit on another floor, his barking has become non-stop. The change has been hard on him, and his family is working with Bark Busters to help Max feel more secure and comfortable in his new environment.

With some guidance and support, Max will learn that his new home is just as safe as the old one, and he’ll be able to relax when his family is away. Let’s cheer Max on as he embarks on this journey to calm and confidence! 🌟🐶

❓- Why do dogs have tails? 🐕

1️⃣ Balance
Dogs use their tails to balance when moving quickly, changing direction, climbing, or walking on narrow surfaces. The tail acts as a counterbalance, helping the dog put its weight on the opposite side of its tilt, similar to how a tightrope walker uses a balance bar. When swimming, a dog's tail can act like a rudder to help it move and turn.

2️⃣ Communication
Dogs use their tails to communicate with other dogs and humans. For example, a dog might wag its tail faster to express excitement, like when it's happy to see someone.

➕Other purposes
Dogs might also use their tails to fend off insects, increase or decrease their scent, and help them control their jumps.

🤓 Do you want to hear a tall tail? The Irish Wolfhound Keon holds the Guinness World Record for the longest dog tail, measuring 30.2 inches from the top of the tail to the tip. Keon's tail is so long that some say you could use it to play jump rope!

Say hello to Buddy, a lively 3-month-old Poodle from Jensen Beach who's in training with Bark Busters Treasure Coast! 🐾

Buddy is full of energy and ready to learn. He’s making progress with potty training, even starting to head to the door when nature calls. But this little guy loves adventure—he’ll take off running down the street if given the chance!

Buddy’s still learning that slippers aren’t chew toys and that nipping isn’t the best way to say hello. He’s a social butterfly who adores meeting new people, but his enthusiasm sometimes leads to jumping up on them. On the leash, Buddy is doing pretty well, but there's room for improvement.

He hasn’t been left home alone yet, so we're working on building his confidence and independence. With Bark Busters' guidance, Buddy is on his way to becoming a well-mannered pup! 🐶

Want to accelerate your dog's training progress? These tips are essential to having a well-behaved family companion:

1. Keep sessions short and focused. This helps prevent your dog getting frustrated, ensuring they stay engaged and willing to learn.

2. Be consistent with commands and positive reinforcement. You may be sending mixed messages without meaning to. Consistency builds clear communication between you and your dog, making it easier for them to understand and remember what's expected.

3. Use praise generously. Positive reinforcement through enthusiastic praise keeps your dog motivated and reinforces good behavior, strengthening their bond with you.

4. Practice in different environments. This helps your dog generalize commands and behaviors, making them reliable in various situations, not just at home. Avoid overwhelming your dog with too many commands at once, or using negative reinforcement as this can hinder progress and damage your dog's trust.

Remember, your dog wants to please you, he just doesn't know how. Let's make training a fun and rewarding experience for you and your pup.

🐾 Meet Abby, the 4-year-old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Poodle, and Bichon Frise mix in training with Bark Busters Boca Raton. Abby is a sweet and spirited pup, but she’s facing some challenges that we’re working hard to overcome.

When it’s time for a walk, Abby will often hide under the couch, not wanting to go outside. She’s also reactive to other dogs during walks and gets very upset when delivery people or the pool boy are around, transforming into her own little version of "Cujo." Abby struggles with separation anxiety, and her family has her on medication to help manage it when they leave the house.

We’re here to support Abby as she learns to feel more comfortable and confident in her world. With patience and consistent training, she’s on her way to a happier, calmer life. 💕

🐾 Say hello to Rosie, a 9-year-old Staffordshire Terrier, and Lola, a 2.5-year-old Pocket Pitbull from Port St. Lucie! 🐾

Rosie has some challenges we're helping her work through, especially when it comes to aggression. Outside the home, she can be reactive on the leash, barking, growling, and even trying to nip if another animal gets too close. She's also wary of some kids, particularly if they don’t respect her boundaries, and has a high prey drive. We're focusing on helping Rosie feel more secure and less reactive in these situations.

As for Lola, she’s a sweet girl who’s been staying with Rosie’s owner, and they’re considering making her a permanent member of the family. Both Rosie and Lola are free-roaming and have never been crate-trained, but they’re both healthy and ready to learn.

We’re excited to guide them on this journey! 🐶❤️

Are you stressed out, embarrassed or feeling hopeless about your dog's out of control behaviors? 😩😣🥺

In addition to puppy training, our trainers specialize in working with aggressive, fearful, and reactive dogs. Very few dog training companies are able to handle these behaviors. Together we can get your dog to trust, respect, & listen to you by using natural and humane methods. No shock or prong collars.

🏠 Our training starts in your home so we can work with your dog in its natural environment.
🏙 From there we can work in other outdoor settings, to give you the tools to have your dog under your control in any environment.

It's never too late to change your dog's behavior 👏

🐾 Unlock Your Dog's Potential with Consistent Practice! 🐾
Ever wondered why some dogs seem to follow commands effortlessly while others struggle? The secret lies in one simple word: consistency.
Just like us, dogs thrive on routine and repetition. You can transform your dog into a well-behaved companion by practicing commands regularly.

Here’s how to get started:
1. Set a Schedule: Dedicate specific times each day for training sessions. Consistency in timing helps your dog understand when it's time to learn.
2. Use Clear Commands: Stick to the same words for each command. This reduces confusion and helps your dog associate the word with the action.
3. Be Patient: Progress might be slow at first, but patience is key. Celebrate small victories and keep the sessions positive.
4. Practice in Different Environments: Train in various locations to ensure your dog can follow commands anywhere, not just at home.
5. Stay Consistent: Make sure everyone in the household uses the same commands and techniques. Consistency from all family members reinforces learning.

Remember, practice makes perfect! With regular, consistent training, your dog will soon follow commands like a pro. 🐶✨

🐾 Meet Pearl, Captain, and Jewel from Jupiter! 🐾

For the past month, this dynamic trio—Pearl, Captain, and Jewel—has been facing some challenges. Pearl and Captain have been reactive towards other dogs and even ganged up on Jewel leading to some serious incidents. They've always been great with their neighbor’s dog Tucker, but recently the relationship has changed. Pearl is the main instigator, especially when it comes to barking, and she’s also been pulling on walks, while Captain and Jewel struggle with leash walking.

Despite these hurdles, we’re confident that with some dedicated training, Pearl, Captain, and Jewel can overcome their issues and become the well-behaved companions they’re meant to be. They’re all wonderful rescues with big hearts, and we’re excited to help them find their best selves.

Stay tuned for their journey as we work on improving their social skills, leash manners, and overall behavior. 🐶💪

🐾 Meet Carlos! 🐾

Carlos is a spirited 2-year-old Black Mouth Cur from Stuart, FL, currently in training with Bark Busters Treasure Coast. 🌴

Carlos needs help with obedience and consistency—he tends to be very selective when it comes to following commands. While he does okay with recall at home, he struggles when other dogs are around.

We’re also working on his leash manners, as Carlos loves to pull and lead the walk. He’s been chewing on things around the house and being a bit destructive. Additionally, Carlos has had some accidents in his crate when left alone due to his owner's crazy work schedule at the hospital.

Today’s session focused on building better obedience, improving recall, and establishing good leash manners. With consistent training and a lot of love, Carlos is on his way to becoming a well-behaved and happy pup. Stay tuned for updates on his progress! 🐶
