Meet Jane Whitehead
Does your dog bark, take you for a walk, have very bad manners?
My name is Jane and I see clients everyday who believe they are not in control, stressed out and feel like they are living their life around their dog.
Before joining Bark Busters I was living that life. I had owned dogs all of my life and never quite understood why I just couldn’t get my dog to do what I wanted him to do and have the control that all dog owner’s dream of.
Now, I have the opportunity to help clients’ achieve those results with their ‘four legged friends’. The Bark Busters’ system is so simple, natural and effective that you too will wonder why you hadn’t approached them years ago.
Bark Busters can help you to take control, take the lead and regain your rightful place as leader of your pack. We can show you how to deal with your dog’s
behavioural problems; pulling, separation anxiety, chewing, jumping, biting, recall & chasing. I can teach you how to communicate with your dog so your dog actually listens when you speak.
I understand that each dog and situation is unique so your training is tailored to suit you, your dog and your circumstances. You will be amazed at the quick results you will see during our first session using simple and straight forward methods.
Your relationship will improve dramatically in just a couple of hours of one on one training which is tailored to you and your ‘mate’s’ specific problem. I will work with you and your dog in your home, so that any behavioural problems can be identified
and corrected in your own environment.
Bark Busters offer a unique ‘written, lifetime guarantee’, which means that I will always be there to provide any on-going assistance you and your dog might need to achieve and maintain a fun and rewarding relationship at every stage of your dog’s long and happy life.
Reactive Dogs – Human Aggression – Barking – Jumping Up – Lead Pulling – Not Coming when called – Early puppy education – Separation Anxiety – Anti Social Behaviour – Over exuberance – Toilet training – Destructive behaviours and much more…..
You can contact me on 1800 067 710 or via email and enjoy a happier and healthier home environment with your four legged family member.

Meet Sue Good
We all love our dogs but not always their behaviour!
Hi, I am Sue Good. For over 10 years I have been making a big difference to the lives of dogs and their owners in the suburbs of Adelaide West and Adelaide East & Hills.
Does your dog
- Pull you down the street when you go for a walk
- Jump up on family and visitors to your home
- Not come when called
- Bark at birds, noises, visitors etc…
- Have separation anxiety
- Get aggressive towards other dogs and people
- And more……
OR
You may need some training and advice for a new puppy.
No matter what your dog’s behaviour issues are the simple holistic techniques of Bark Busters works for all dogs, any breed or age.
You will learn to ‘SPEAK DOG’ a language your dog will understand using body language and voice tones.
Seeing the ‘WOW’ moments that regularly occur during the first training session amazes my clients and me as well, even after 10 years.
With Bark Busters ‘Lifetime Support Guarantee’ we return free of charge after the first training session for the life of your dog if you need a refresher or new behavioural issues arise.
I love my work and am dedicated to getting the result my clients want to see – The best behaved dog on their street!
So if you want to love your dog’s behaviour as much as you love them contact me and with my help make that happen.

Meet Maureen Guelfi
Welcome to Bark Busters Perth East….
As a qualified behavioural therapist, my passion is to help owners get the best from their dogs, whether they be 8 weeks old or 18 years old. My goal is to teach you how to gain your dog’s focus, in turn helping them become calmer and more relaxed.
One to one training is vital to helping you set up a foundation based on respect, trust and communication. I will help you to ‘Speak Dog’ and coach you through the fundamentals of canine communication. This will give you a better understanding of your dog and his behaviour while also giving you the key to a positive training experience with fast results.

Training an adult dog does not have to be hard… Whether a new rescue dog, an older dog who is set in his ways or even an adolescent puppy testing the boundaries, training can be fun, engaging and above all else practical.
Issues like recall, pulling on the lead, jumping and nuisance barking can all be addressed through our training programs. I also help many owners with more in-depth behavioural issues such as aggression, separation anxiety and sibling rivalry. You can find out more by visiting ‘Our Services’.

Meet Glen Guelfi
Hi, I’m Glen Guelfi and I have been with Bark Busters as a fulltime trainer and behaviourist for the past 13 years. In this time, I have seen a lot of problems with dogs that can be solved simply by doing some thing the dog understands. So, we coin the phrase SPEAKING DOG.
The dog responds well because it understands what you are trying to say and do. I originally found my love for animals as I was growing up. We had at one stage 3 dogs, an Afghan, Doberman cross and very cute little Pug. Amongst all this we also had 16 cats at one time, so I learnt at a young age to appreciate dogs and cats. I didn’t get my first dog until I was older and had a family of my own. We adopted a little blue heeler named Jackson. He soon became the most important thing to me. My wife said I loved the dog more than her. (not true of course but still)
At this time my father was a Bark Buster trainer and he thought I would do well in the business as I had a great love for dogs. When a franchise became available, I jumped at it with both hands. That was 13 years ago, and I am still loving what I do.
I now have my wife Maureen involved as well. We often sit around and talk about the dogs we see on a daily basis and how they can be transformed before the owner’s eyes, using the very friendly Bark Buster approach. I hope I can come and help you out with your dog as well. So, I look forward to hearing from you so we can help your dog together.

Meet Emma Reeves
Hi, I’m Emma Reeves, your local Bark Busters Dog Behaviour Therapist and Trainer for the Rockingham & Peel region. I cover the area from Oakford and Wandi, to Clifton and Coolup and all the places in between, including Byford, Mandurah, Jarrahdale and Serpentine.
We all love our dogs, but most have a few naughty behaviours that can frustrate us. Does your dog:
-
- Jump all over you and anyone else it gets close enough to?
-
- Think it is taking you for a walk and drags you all around the neighbourhood?
-
- Bark at any and everything, no matter what the time is?
-
- Not come when called?
-
- Have separation anxiety?
-
- Become aggressive to other dogs or other people?
Many dog owners put up with these and many other bad habits simply because they believe them to be typical dog behaviour. Using Bark Busters methods and techniques, I can help you to eradicate the stress from dog ownership.
Bark Busters have helped over 1,000,000 dogs worldwide, during the last 31 years and were the first to offer the Lifetime Support Guarantee.
No matter the breed, age, and problem using Bark Busters humane and non-physical methods I can show you how to teach your dog the rules of your home, what’s allowed and what’s not, in a way they can understand.
I look forward to helping you and your dog on the journey to happiness. Let’s unleash your dogs’ good behaviour together.

Meet Janette Norton
I absolutely love what I do, it was a big step when I decided to follow my lifelong passion to train and work with dogs. When this opportunity came to join the largest dog training company in the world, who has helped over hundreds of dogs around the globe, I jumped at the chance to join the Bark Busters Australian team, I was so happy and ready to go for it… I haven’t looked back.
I have always had several dogs at a time, different breeds with different behavioural issues and I thought I knew a lot about dog training, I soon realised I had an enormous amount to learn, it has been well worth it and a thoroughly enjoyable process.
I’m often the last resort to many of my clients, who are at their wits end with their dogs bad behaviour issues, and I have now helped 100’s of dogs and their owners. It is always such a pleasure to see my clients no longer frustrated with their canine companions but enjoying their much loved dogs once again.
Training dogs has been such an amazing thing for me, not only do I get to meet your beautiful dogs but I also get to meet a lot of lovely people along the way too. I have made some wonderful friendships in this business and they all love their dogs as much as I love mine. The owners (and me) get to laugh, cry and wonder what all the fuss is about. Once they have seen the remarkable change in their dog and to know that they didn’t have to take drastic measures, plus they have peace of mind that I am here for them whenever they need further assistance, as we offer a Life Of The Dog Support Guarantee, which is international.
At the end of the day it’s the owners and their dogs that make my job so worthwhile, waking up each day and doing what I love has always been a dream. Helping people understand their dogs and showing them how to communicate with them correctly without harsh or physical methods, then watching their faces light up when they can see their dog responding so quickly, is so rewarding to me.
We have a saying in Bark Busters which says ” Happy Dogs = Happy Families”…This is so true! I can help you love your dog’s behaviour as much as you love your dog.

Do you dream of having a more fulfilling relationship with your dog and solve those problems blocking your way? Let me show you how to communicate with your dog in a kind and humane way. which guarantees results. Any dog, any age, any problem – and never pay for a trainer again!
There are few things in life no more rewarding than the bond of a devoted owner and a loyal dog. But perfect relationships aren’t magic, they are built from an understanding and an ability to communicate.
I have been drawn to dogs as far as memory serves me and growing up our household was never without a dog or two. Some of them we found, some of them found us but all were loved companions. I was introduced to the Bark Busters methods of training way back around 1996 by reading a newspaper story explaining a new dog training method which was kind to the dog and got results for every type of behavioural issue you could think of. This humane method sat well with me and I began to train my own dogs the Bark Busters way. Every dog I have owned has been an absolute joy and Bark Busters methods were my go to whenever I couldn’t solve a problem.
Fast forward to the present and searching for a new career it is what has been right under my nose all along, this is where I should have been looking. I am proud to have joined the Bark Busters team and look forward to helping you achieve that relationship with your dog you have wished for.
No problem is too big or too small. Our lifetime support guarantee ensures you will always have a personal trainer on call to help you anytime.
So give me a call, and lets have a chat and see how our wonderful system can help you and your dog.

Meet Michelle Reay
Hi I’m Michelle Reay your local Bark Buster Dog Behaviour Therapist for Toowoomba and the Darling Downs. I’d like to enable you to have the most rewarding relationship possible with your dog so that every day with them is a pleasure!
Too often our dog’s little issues get dismissed and overlooked, only to become big problems and before we know it our relationship with our dog is no longer a joy but more of a nightmare!
No one wants to be constantly yelling, frustrated or embarrassed by their dog’s undesirable behaviour.
Does your dog………
- Bark at anything and everything?
- Drag you down the street on the lead?
- Jump all over your visitors?
- Chew and destroy your belongings?
- Refuse to come when called?
- Lunge and bark aggressively on the lead?
I guarantee this was not the picture you had in mind, the day you bought your irresistible bundle home. So why is it that we put up with the most frustrating and antisocial behaviours from our dogs and change our lives to accommodate them when we simply do not have to?
I’d love to help you get the best out of your dog and restore harmony in your household for you, your family and your four legged friend.
Bark Busters takes a holistic approach to resolving your dog’s behavioural issues, using natural training methods to help you communicate clearly with them and form a relationship built on trust and respect. We are an internationally renowned dog training company, successfully training dogs in seven countries across the globe. Collectively, our trainers have trained over 1million dogs and changed the lives of countless families, previously struggling with their pets.
We work with you and your dog in the home environment, customising each session for your specific needs to get the best outcomes possible. After your initial session you’ll see major improvements in your dog’s behaviour. Consistent, effective communication is the key to a great relationship!
From an early age I have had an affinity for dogs and I have spent many years working with animals using natural training methods, getting a better understanding of their behaviour and how they learn. Canine behaviour and the connection they can form with people is truly fascinating. It is so rewarding to see dogs fully engage and connect with people through confident, clear communication and I would like to enable more owners to experience this bond and make a positive difference in their lives and the lives of their dogs.
I want to be able to share our training techniques with you and your canine companion to create a happier and more fulfilling relationship for you and your dog. Because a happier dog makes a happier household.
Michelle Reay
Meet Kia Parke
These techniques worked for my whole family as my husband, and I grew and developed our family from living the couple life, to being a family unit consisting of mum, dad and two children.
I have also successfully applied these techniques to my 100% deaf dog “Lightning” along with socially adjusting an ex working dog into a fantastic family pet and proving that these techniques can work for ANY dog, ANY problem and at ANY age.
Professionally I joined Bark Busters in 2007 and have had so much satisfaction in turning Bark Busters into a household name in the Townsville region.
Since joining the Bark Busters team, I have had many achievements. During September (2009), Bark Busters Townsville was awarded Office of the Year. I was also a finalist for Therapist of the Year (2009) in addition to being awarded the Leader of the pack award for Australia (2009).
The training techniques, which are based on the way dogs communicate with each other, are simple and easy to use and results are visible in hours, not weeks – all without the use of harsh methods. Training is conducted in the home where most problem behaviour occurs, so the dog is relaxed and more receptive to learning “new tricks”.
I would love to assist you with your family also.

Meet Lynden McCormack
I’ve had various breeds including Old English Sheepdogs, Soft Coated Wheaten Terriers & a Dogue de Bordeaux.
After various careers changes throughout my working life & a return to Brisbane over 10 yrs ago, I decided to further pursue my love of dogs by becoming a Bark Busters trainer, after being impressed with their training system & quick behavioural results.
Joining Bark Busters has been a very rewarding experience & been one of the best career choices I’ve made.
The Bark Busters insights and training we offer are fantastic!
Lynden McCormack
Meet Kelly McClelland
All of this and more can be managed using the easy Bark Busters system of correction. The best part? No bum bags filled with treats, no nasty collars, and definitely nothing that creates fear – you want your dog to be working happily for you, not worrying about fear based training! Once we have managed all the in house issues, we then head out for a walk, go to the park or the beach, do controlled dog to dog work (my dogs LOVE coming to work!) or anything else as required.
Bark Busters also hold puppy schools, which are a 4 week series aimed at giving your new baby the best start in life. Obedience, toilet training, destruction, positive socialisation, and so much more….and for those that are too old for puppy school, why not try Bark Busters Group Training? Because we understand life is busy, you can come to any 4 weeks, and there is a high focus on dog to dog control, obedience, road safety, handler confidence and so much more.
I look forward to meeting you and your dog(s) soon!
Kelly McClelland
Meet Michelle Howell
G’day, my name is Michelle and I’m your local Bark Busters Dog Training expert. I service the Brisbane North East Area including Morayfield, Redcliffe, Northlakes, Wavell Heights, Samford and everything in between. But I also offer in-home dog training remotely! Either way, whether in person or on-line, I come to you in the comfort of your own home. Any dog, any age.
There are many reasons a dog owner might seek out a dog trainer. Barking, separation anxiety, jumping up, mouthing, toilet training, pulling on the lead, marking, and aggression are just a few of the problems owners have with their furry friends. While there is a myriad of information out there on training, it is confusing and often incorrect. The real issue though, comes from finding the time and energy to train a dog.
As a dog trainer, I have dedicated myself to teaching clients how to understand dog nature, such as body language, energy, and social skills, and how it applies to training your dog. My approach is about fostering respectful relationships between people and canines, so your dog learns from every interaction with you. It is all about reinforcing the human-animal bond to enrich the lives of owners, as much as their dogs. Setting both up for a lifetime of joy and success. A little training, a few minutes a day, done consistently and positively can bring out the best in your dog. More importantly, it can bring you both years of joy and happiness
Michelle Howell
Meet Faith Wild
After working in the animal rights movement and running a charity for 10 years, when the opportunity came up to work with dogs I jumped at it.
Dogs have been the love and light of my life since I can remember….from sitting in the gutter with all the stray dogs when I was 9, and feeding them ice creams and playing at the pied piper with all of them following me home. My mum was always yelling at me – where did you get all those dogs from? I would pretend to train them and walk them around on a string and ask them to sit and stay and run them over jumps….it was all I ever wanted to do. I wrote stories about them and dreamed about them and imagined a life full of dogs. I have to say, I had pretty good control back then too!
So Bark Busters was my chance and I have never looked back. Someone asked me the other day what gave me the most joy in life, and I told them it was when owners were beaming about how clever their dogs were after just one training session. It is just wonderful to see them connect with their dog and for the dog to look so happy!
The people I have met have made a profound impact on my life. I have formed close bonds and lasting friendships and their dogs have become a part of my family too. They all mean so much to me and of all the calls I have made in my life, that initial call to Bark Busters was the most life changing and best decision of my life.

Meet Grace Parr
I am very passionate about my work and it gives me great satisfaction to see dogs and puppies transform from misunderstood pets and seeing owners able to communicate with their dogs. My goal is to help you dog to learn to live harmoniously with their human family. The simple and extremely effective techniques that Bark Busters use, makes it an enjoyable experience for your dog and of course the owner!

Bark Busters has provided me with a career which allows me to help owners dramatically improve their dog’s behaviour and to understand why their dog behaves the way it does. Clients often comment that what we do is like magic because our techniques work so quickly and are so effective. In reality it is simply that once you understand why a dog behaves in a particular way and learn how to communicate effectively, everything quickly falls in to place. No magic but plenty of know how.
Bark Busters techniques are so effective that we are the only dog training company in the world to give a written Lifetime Support Guarantee!
A happy and content dog is a joy to own.

Meet Allan Foster
Hi, my name is Allan Foster and I am your Bark Busters Dog Trainer for the ACT and surrounding areas.
Does your dog exhibit behaviour that is a problem for you? Does your dog take you for a walk, jump all over you and your visitors or bark at everything (or seemingly nothing)? Have you just become the owner of a dog and are looking for ways to teach it how to behave?
Bark Busters’ 31 years of history and success with modifying behaviour of over 1,000,000 dogs means that no problem has not been encountered before.
Many dog owners put up with behaviours they are not happy with because they believe they can’t change them. I’m here to tell you that you can!
No matter the age, breed, size, or colour of your dog, unwanted behaviour can be changed.
Using the Bark Busters gentle, non-physical methods and techniques, I can show you how to have a well behaved dog that you can enjoy spending time with.
Together, let’s teach your dog how to be a valued member of your family.
Don’t feel overwhelmed, feel empowered!

Meet Gabriel Blatt
I enjoy coming into your home and seeing the look of joy, satisfaction and achievement on your face as you get your puppy or adult dog to sit, drop, stay, come when called and walk properly on lead, as well as behavioural issues. Clients tell me that it is so easy to learn and do.
My name is Gabriel Blatt and I have been a dog trainer/behavioural therapist with Bark Busters Home Dog Training for almost 23 years in the Melbourne South East area including Albert Park, Black Rock/Beaumaris, Armadale and Brighton.
Dogs/puppies are my world and nothing gives me greater pleasure than being able to teach and educate you and your family on how to live harmoniously with your dog. Dog training and behaviour training is not work for me, it is a calling.
Some of my clients tell me I have a special gift, an instinct that works. Some tell me they have had someone else who could not help and are amazed at what Bark Busters achieve.
Barking, separation anxiety, ignoring, pulling on the lead, digging, chewing, jumping up, people and dog aggression, sibling rivalry and puppy training – no matter how big or small the issue at hand, I can help you with all behavioural problems and general obedience. I come to you at home and work with you , teaching you and your dog. We also work outside in the park/beach or at a coffee shop if needed. I enjoy a challenge and some dogs are more difficult than others. You may have a different need or requirement, just call.
You will have fun whilst learning about dog training and dog behaviour . You and your dog will be more relaxed.
I look forward to helping you.

Meet Stefanie Budiman
My name is Stefanie and needless to say, I LOVE dogs! I grew up with dogs and started training them at a young age, which then turned from a hobby to a career in my adulthood. As I also love working with people, it brings me joy to work with both owners and their pups to ensure that there is efficient communication and understanding between the two.
While I have experience in other dog training methods, nothing comes close to the effectiveness of the Bark Busters system. The holistic and more importantly, non-physical, approach of the Bark Busters system particularly appealed to me and I had to join right away after experiencing it first hand with my rescue and foster dogs, who had a myriad of behavioural issues, including aggression, fearfulness and dominance.
Moreover, Bark Busters offer a Lifetime Support Guarantee for your dogs. This means we are able to help you with your dog at any point in your dog’s life with any behavioural issues that might occur in the future, with revision lessons. This Guarantee will be upheld even if the dog moves homes, interstate or overseas, as long as the location is within the vicinity of a local Bark Busters trainer or office.
With the extensive support from the worldwide network of Bark Busters trainers, I am most certain that we are able to assist you in overcoming any challenges that you are facing with your furry buddy. So give me a ring, and we shall start the fun training journey with your dog.

Meet Paul Labrum
Hi, my name is Allan Foster and I am your Bark Busters Dog Trainer for the ACT and surrounding areas.
Does your dog exhibit behaviour that is a problem for you? Does your dog take you for a walk, jump all over you and your visitors or bark at everything (or seemingly nothing)? Have you just become the owner of a dog and are looking for ways to teach it how to behave?
Bark Busters’ 31 years of history and success with modifying behaviour of over 1,000,000 dogs means that no problem has not been encountered before.
Many dog owners put up with behaviours they are not happy with because they believe they can’t change them. I’m here to tell you that you can!
No matter the age, breed, size, or colour of your dog, unwanted behaviour can be changed.
Using the Bark Busters gentle, non-physical methods and techniques, I can show you how to have a well behaved dog that you can enjoy spending time with.
Together, let’s teach your dog how to be a valued member of your family.
Don’t feel overwhelmed, feel empowered!

Our Mantra
Take responsibility—all of it—for your life, for your work, for your actions. Don’t buy into the lie that you can’t do something meaningful and profitable because…your family was a mess…the economy is bad…you’re too old…you’re too young…someone beat you to it. Our choices have brought us to where we are at present. Our choices will earn us a Hall-of-Fame life. But it is our choice. Take charge of your action and don’t wait around for someone to give you permission to do so. The fact you are breathing is permission enough.
“Expect Nothing”
Don’t let entitlement thinking cloud your judgment and stick to you as short as a snowflakes. Parcells did not mean by this, “Don’t get your hopes up.” It’s wrong to expect others to do for you that which you are able to do for yourself.
“Do Something”
Take action. This is a call for initiative. For forward momentum. Make a decision and see it through. If it doesn’t turn out quite right, make the mid-course correction but by all means don’t stop. Others and The universe reward effort. If you exert, you should see a return on investment!
