About the Trainer
Bark Life Dog Training is a personalized dog training service led by head trainer Max, who has over 10 years of experience working with dogs and their owners. They specialize in custom training programs tailored to each client’s goals, whether it’s teaching a puppy basic manners, helping an older dog learn new tricks, or preparing a service dog for a specific medical need. Max offers in-home consultations to assess the dog’s environment and develop a customized plan, ensuring training fits the family’s lifestyle and schedule. While they offer a few pre-set courses, their strength lies in one-on-one, fully customized training that adapts to individual needs.

Their approach is client-focused, starting with a phone call or in-person meeting to define goals before creating a detailed game plan.
The business also sells dog training products through their online store, but their core service is direct, personalized training with Max.
