Kevin Gonzalez joined our team from Puerto Rico with strong enthusiasm and a lifetime love of dogs. He has vast experience with all types of dogs and situations much of which comes from working with the best dog trainers and behavioral therapists in several different markets.
After visiting Salt Lake City and meeting its great people, he fell in love with the city. Kevin decided to purchase a Bark Busters franchise and establish himself as the local advocate for all dogs and families in search of a professional dog trainer and/or behavioral specialist. Kevin’s understanding of dog behavior and his education as a Master Dog Trainer make him the ideal choice for Salt Lake City residents who need help with any dog behavioral issues.
Most behavioral issues are learned based on both experiences and environment. That’s why in home dog training is so effective because this is where most behavioral issues occur and it’s where your dog feels the safest. Because your dog can’t speak English and you can’t “speak dog” many miscommunications occur. At Bark Busters, we can teach you how to communicate with your dog in a language he understands.
