Thank you so much for leaving a review Lianne, it has been great to see Betty (8 month old St Bernard) responding to the training. She has a lovely temperament, and helping you to have her listen to you when needed, walk her more easily and continue to encourage her positive behaviors has been a pleasure. I look forward to supporting you through her adolescent stages and in to adulthood.

Catharina dealt with Chewing, Digging, Hyperactivity, Jumping up, Pulling, Recall
Thanks so much for your review Shelby, Max (18 month old Golden Retriever x Lab/Border Collie) is a real genuine boy, who didn't have his direction yet, and as soon as you gave that to him through the training he has flourished! Great to see a huge improvement in his digging and chewing in the back yard, as it is always hard not knowing what will be ruined when you come home from work, and awesome to see you out and enjoying your walks again! Thanks for referring me and Bark Busters to your friends, it is appreciated so much!

Thanks so much for leaving a review Aqua! It was lovely to work with you and Mazakeen and see how well she responded and focused on you while we worked on her on lead dog reactivity as well as her barking issues. I look forward to seeing her progress at our next lesson :) Well done!!

It was great to work with you and Vada (4 year old Pomeranian cross Chihuahua). Even though she is a anxious dog it was wonderful to see her respond to you both as you gave her the leadership and guidance through the training. I love that she has taken to her crate so well and she now uses that as her safe space. I look forward to seeing her progress at our next session (although it is great to see her improvements already over text) and then start to work on her dog reactivity/fear and lead training. Thanks for leaving a review, and well done on putting this great training system in place for Vada :)

It was lovely to meet you and Maple (9 month old Golden Retriever) and help you with her pulling and recall. It is always great to see dogs start to relax and focus on their owner, showing they want to please. Looking forward to addressing her dog reactivity and over excitement on lead in our next lesson, I know she will do well!

Thank you Tully, it was lovely to help you with Zara (4yo Staffy x) and see the change in her by the end of your first lesson. She wanted to please you at every stage. Even with focusing on you in her walking past neighboring dogs without worrying about them was a big achievement. I look forward to seeing your progress at your next lesson :)

Thank you for leaving a review Aime!

Catharina dealt with Aggression
Thank you so much for leaving a review Victoria. It was great to see the change in Lu (7yo male American Staffy) and how his dog aggression could be overcome as you worked on his training plan with him. It is great to hear that he has maintained the positive results after your move as well. Awesome work guys!

Thank you for leaving a review Liane! Benni is a gorgeous 1 year old Bernedoodle, with a lovely personality, and it has been great to see you improve his behaviour so quickly by following our training plan. I look forward to hearing how he goes as you continue your training!

Thank you for leaving a review Tess! I loved working with you and Tippy (7yo Cattle Dogs x Bull Terrier x Kelpie) and Molly (18 month old Border Collie) to help you with barking, jumping, pulling, recall, sibling rivalry, rushing the door and managing and improving Tippy's anxiety. I never get tired of seeing people have the light bulb moments and it was truly a pleasure helping you!

Catharina dealt with Barking, Pulling, Recall
Thanks so much for leaving a review, it has been a pleasure to work with you and Ollie (3 year old, male Mastiff x Labrador) and help him overcome his insecurities. He is a sweet boy, it was great to hear you could have a tradesperson over and Ollie listened to you and settled calmly, something he really struggled to do before. Well done!

Thanks for your review Hayley! Indi (10yo English Staffordshire Terrier) and Kawhi (9yo English Staffordshire Terrier) are great testament that older dogs can be trained and change their behaviour. I know you have been concerned about being able to have the dogs move in together and their reactivity to each other as well as Indi's barking for attention and Kawhi's pulling and over excitement. They both responded well on the day of their lesson and to have them side by side with each other was a great start. I am confident that with your consistent training at home, that we will continue to see some great results for both of them. I am looking forward to seeing their progress at your next lesson :)
