Puppy and Dog Training Newcastle & Port Stephens
Welcome to dog training Newcastle, I am Martin Blattman your local Bark Busters therapist and dog trainer. Growing up and interacting with my own dog at a young age, we would have fun playing soccer and cricket in the backyard together. When we went on family holidays we would go camping and our dog, a black Labrador cross name Ruff, was always with us. Hence, I found a passion for working with dogs.
I’ve been a Bark Busters dog behaviour therapist for over 25 years, and I have had the pleasure in helping thousands of dog owners just like you, to resolve and manage their dog's behaviour to suit every individual situation and need. Be it a young couple with their first fur baby, a growing family trying to juggle everything on top of their beloved family dog, or retiree’s wanting the companionship only a dog can provide, without the added stress.
I also provide dog training in Lake Macquarie, Hunter Valley, Port Stephens and Central Coast regions.
At the end of the day, whatever stage in life you are at, everyone just wants to enjoy their time with their dog and have a trouble-free relationship. I can help you achieve this, as I always say, any age, any dog, and any problem. From puppies to older dogs, adolescents and those who test and cause their owners to despair, no issue is too difficult.
Dogs need to be understood and I can explain why your dog is doing what they are doing. Part of the reason why there are dog and human conflicts is dogs don’t always understand what their humans want from them. This is where I can help you bridge the communication gap.
If you are looking for professional dog training near you, then you have found the right place. Our methods at Bark Busters are unique, non-physical, pain and fear free and customised to suit you and your dog. My lessons teach you how to communicate with your dog in a simple, gentle, and effective way. The methods are simplistic and easy to implement. They are easy for your dog to understand too and compliments your dog’s natural instinct to learn and is aimed at their communication level.
I come to you, and I will assess your dog’s temperament and personality, it’s never a ‘one size fits all’ approach. I like to find out what your needs are for your dog, so I can plan a way forward and it’s never too late for any dog, regardless of age, breed, or past experiences.
Would you like to have a more harmonious life with your dog?
I can help you achieve that!
If you are looking to have a well-mannered companion, I can provide you with the professional training services within your home, which is convenient and suitable for dogs of all ages, including puppies. The dog behavioural issues I can assist with include barking, separation anxiety, jumping up, mouthing, sibling rivalry, dog and human aggression, toilet training, puppy training and management pulling on lead, leash reactivity and more.
I work with all and any breed of dogs. My clients dogs include, Chihuahuas, Pomeranians, Shih Tzu’s, Japanese Spitz, German Shepherds, Cattle dogs, Kelpies, Aussie Shepherds, German Short haired Pointers, Groodles, Spoodles, Cavoodles, Labradoodles, Poodles, Havanese, Pekinese, Jack Russels, Schautzers, Miniature Fox Terriers, Great Danes, Greyhounds, Bull breeds, Lhasa Apso’s, Dalmatians, and many more.
I also have a training programme for deaf and blind dogs too.
My clients, many who have tried other methods, love the simplicity and effectiveness of my training methods and they love the results I can help them achieve. They could not have imagined how smart their dog was and how fast they learned. It's generally because they were just not previously communicating in a way that their dog could easily understand.
Our Lifetime Support Guarantee provides you with the peace of mind that your dog will always have the benefit of a professional trainer for the rest of their life.
