Reviews & Testimonials For Catharina Jeffery

It was great to go through all the information on how a dog thinks. We learnt what to to do with our dog and the right way to teach him. The harness is working a great and Enzo is getting much better at not pulling. We still have work to do but. It was also good to have explained how a dog sees things and how we can teach him with the right techniques.

I am very happy and relieved to say that Dora the Explorer's behaviours have improved immensely since my first Bark Busters training session. With the knowledge and strategies that Cat has shared with me, I have established my position as the pack leader and now provide Dora with clear instructions that she understands and responds to.

Our dog Cleo was pulling on the lead and jumping up a lot. When Cat came, we saw an immediate difference in one session. Now it's actually a pleasure to walk with Cleo. Thanks Cat!

I had the 1st training lesson with cat just before Easter with my French Bulldog named Chase it was so good to have a refreshing approach to dog training. We went away for the Easter break and it was the first time that my dog has been socialised, it was brilliant to be able to take the training that Cat had shown me and put them into practice immediately and also on top of that going away on a holiday and having to try a lot of first things for the first time. Thank you so much for all your help and guidance Cat I look forward to having more training sessions with you in the future. I will be doing my 7 days straight training with him 10 to 20 minutes a day so very exciting to be able to do something so enjoyable with my new puppy and be able to have him happy and comfortable and also rely on the support that I know that he will be doing what he's asked.

Very clear in demonstrating and giving me instructions. Made it easier for me to understand a dogs body language, how they think and ways to improve my dogs behaviour/responsiveness.

Cat was amazing. She explained everything in a really easy to follow/understand manner. By the end of training there was already noticeable results and I felt confident in continuing the training on my own. She responded immediately to a query I had with a change in behaviour afterwards, and her advice was again helpful. After two days of training our dog's behaviour has improved 100% and I can't wait to take it further. I am so glad I made the phone call. Have already recommended the service to another. Thank you so much.

Great first session. Can't wait to see the progress over the next month. Cat was friendly, approachable and gave me useful information.

We had our first session with Catharina yesterday and she went through some important things we need to know on how to train our American Staffy. Firstly she sat down with me and partner and went over some information in regards to the concerns with have Diesel, how dogs think, why they behave certain ways, what we need to do in particular situations etc. Next Catharina met Diesel and then started to train us and Diesel in the areas we have concerns in. Overall the session went for about 2 and a half hours and already I can see a difference in Diesels behaviour. Catharina is so friendly and knowledgable and I can't wait for our next session with her :)

Cat has been amazing with Hank, she is really caring and has a firm but gentle approach. Being a rescue Hank has many issues, but after only 2 sessions we are making huge progress. We are looking forward to our next session, and ongoing training to help him become a calmer, more balanced dog.

Catharina attended to my Lab x Kelpie pup to address the behavioural problems I was experiencing with him ie jumping up at people, pulling on the lead, chewing. I found Catharina to be very professional, patient and understanding and the training methods that were applied were simple but very effective. By the end of our session I had a new dog, he was well mannered and obedient it really was a great achievement and it also allowed me to have a better understanding of my dog. I look forward to continuing with the training in the future.

Cat was amazing - Has offered us great on going support with Hazel. We have seen great results through following Cat's training. Very easy to work with - showing us patience and extra help when needed.

Catharina is a great trainer, makes it easy! She was excellent. Went through everything we needed it to cover and also gave us good advice.
