Our dog friendly training is
simple, natural and 'FAST'

Our methods focus on creating a positive relationship between you and your dog to improve your dog's behaviour and obedience. Our expertise is in understanding how a dog naturally thinks, learns and communicates and then using this to show you how to be your dog’s leader. Once this relationship is established, behaviour change is a natural next step. Our techniques work with any age, any breed, any issue. You and your dog get one-on-one attention, an individualised plan to suit your family AND guaranteed support for the life of your dog.

Labradoodle

Golden Retrievers are known as loving, friendly dogs. Poodles are considered to be one of the smartest breeds. No wonder that a cross between these two would be desirable! Additionally, because the Poodle is considered hypoallergenic, the Groodle is a great choice for people who are only mildly alle...

"I keep loosing my review so this is short and swift! Ric was absolutely fantastic. We have gone from an overexcited, feisty Cavador puppy to a really beautiful puppy who is a pleasure to take out. No jumping, no pulling, no scraping on front door to get to visitors.Thanks heaps Ric. We would never hesitate to get you back if necessary."

"Michelle was wonderful. She knew exactly what she was talking about and helped us with the issues we were having with our dog. It has been a week since lesson 1 and our dog has made massive improvements already"

"Philippa was lovely and informative. She gave easy to follow instructions and within a few days I've been able to see some improvements in behaviour from my dog."

"We can finally relax whilst walking our Teddy. We adopted Teddy when he was 4 years old, and he struggled with seeing other dogs and walking on the lead. After Glen came to our house, he has Teddy under control in minutes. Whilst we are still learning the techniques, Teddy is much easier to handle, and we are over the moon. In addition, we went to one of Glens dog meet ups in the park. Our Teddy displayed the behaviours we spoke to Glen about, and again - fixed within minutes. Highly recommend seeing Glen to get to know your dog better!"

"Ken was very calm and patient with us as dog owners. He explained and demonstrated the strategies and allowed enough time for us to practice under his guidance and coaching."

Linda

Trainer: Ken Tran

"Laura is a wealth of information. Not patronising, but informative and clear. She got our boy Lemmy listening to her in minutes, and that helped me see immediately that I can command using similar behaviour. Lemmy has issues pining in the car on the way to a walk, and reacting aggressively to other dogs. Laura is helping us see the triggers and desensitise Lemmy. Its comforting to know that Laura is there to help."

"Laura was fantastic with my dogs. I have a stubborn jack russell and a people pleasing whippet. I have not managed to get the respect of my jack russell until Laura taught me a few tricks that worked straight away! The tips were easy, and practical. Highly recommend Laura, and bark busters."

"My partner and I have a Maltese Shih Tzu and Cavoodle. We booked in with Bark Busters in hopes of establishing toilet training, barking behaviours and more. The first session was very informative as we were educated about “dog languages,” correct training techniques, the importance of establishing leadership and more. The session was also very interactive - Maureen showed us training techniques, corrected our techniques, and gave advice in all of our areas of concern. By the end of the session, we saw huge progress with our boys. Maureen was extremely lovely and we had such a positive experience. Highly recommend to any pawrents in need of some assistance! "

Cecilia

Trainer: Glen & Maureen Guelfi

"First day and already noticed a massive change in behaviour. Dinner was prepared without dogs under our feet and boundaries were established. A treat in itself. Looking forward to tomorrow’s walk with other issues to address. Thank you Kelly for you insight, looking forward to seeing you again."
