Dog-Friendly, Dog Training That Works

A better way to a better dog

Welcome to Bark Busters Australia, part of the international dog training company founded over 25 years ago. Bark Busters founders Sylvia and Danny Wilson have refined a method of dog obedience training that makes dog training easy and accessible to all. With Bark Busters, you work directly with a dog trainer in your own home using a method that takes into account the unique challenges you're facing and then fosters a positive relationship between you and your dog. This method enables you to build a lasting, emotional bond based on trust and respect, which in turn aids in overcoming past challenges with your pet.

I have had a perspex dog door fitted a few days ago. My dog is very frightened of it. I managed to coax him to go out it with treats when i taped the door open. But he won't come back in and just barks and barks at it. Also i don't think he will go near it with the flap down. What can I do?

I was frankly astonished with the improvement in my puppy's behaviour in just one lesson. All of the issues have not been resolved but as she is only six months old, I know she will get better as I persist with what I was taught to do. I try to be consistent and the results are already evident.

Thank you for teaching us how to manage our fur babies, we enjoy their company so much more now and actually enjoy taking them for a walk. We tell all our friends how good Bark Busters are and love feedback from our friends and family how well behaved our boys are now. Thanks.

We are very happy with the results and Bonnie seems to be happy as well. We have had no problems with the excessive barking and walking is now a pleasure without all the pulling and wandering around. Thank you for all your help with our most precious hairy daughters.
