Bark Busters Reviews and Customer Testimonials

5th May 2025 - Glen & Maureen Guelfi

Glen & Maureen dealt with Barking, Jumping up, Pulling, Separation anxiety

We are very impressed with Maureen's guidance, instructions and professional knowledge. After a day of using the walking method we can see an improvement and have noticed a change in our dog's behaviour in seeing us both as leaders. Maureen is a great instructor, and we have already recommended her to another couple in the village who are the proud owners of a barking dachshund. Hopefully, they will take advantage of Maureen's fabulous service.

Trainer note from Glen & Maureen

5th May 2025 - Kath Gnech

Kath dealt with Barking, Hyperactivity, Jumping up, Puppy management, Separation anxiety

We were blown away by the knowledge and the training methods used by Kath. Zorro was a 4 year old Pomeranian who was affectionately called a disco dog by his original puppy trainer when we got him at 12 weeks of age. He was a brilliant dog in most areas except for his nonstop excessive barking. He’d bark at anything and everything, we couldn’t even get up from our chairs without him barking uncontrollably. After the first lesson with Kath we learnt that we were not being the leader of the dog, but that he controlled us. After putting into practice what we were taught by Kath our Pomeranian is now looking to us for leadership and his uncontrollable barking has dropped dramatically to almost nonexistent. We still have plenty of training to follow up with but the differences after one lesson and implementing what we learnt from Kath has made a world of difference to our lives. We would highly recommend Kath and Bark Busters to anyone wanting to learn how to train your dog in a loving and dog friendly way. It definitely gives you the results that you want. Kath is very professional and friendly and the follow up information and support is great. P.s please note we have also brought a new daschund puppy into our home and we are using the training techniques provided by Kath on him too. Results are looking good so far.

- J.Y, Craignish (Testimonial)

Trainer note from Kath
Thankyou for your great review! It makes me very happy to hear of the positive changes happening in just a few days! Keep up the good work and things will continue to improve toward long term behaviour changes. Best of all though is being able to help bring some much needed peace to the household and having a better relationship with your beautiful dogs!

30th April 2025 - Michelle Howell

Michelle dealt with Jumping up, Pulling, Puppy management, Sibling rivalry

We honestly can’t recommend Michelle enough! Within just a few minutes, it was obvious she really understands all types of dogs and knows how to connect with them. Her calm, confident energy helped both us and our pups feel totally at ease, and her training style was super effective but also kind and totally tailored to our dogs’ different personalities. She explained everything clearly and made sure we felt good about continuing the training on our own until the next session. The progress we saw in just a few hours was amazing—our dogs went from being overexcited to more well-mannered (though they still like to push the boundaries a bit!). Michelle truly cares about both dogs and their people, and she’s great at adapting to everyone’s needs. If you’re looking for someone who’s not just knowledgeable but also down-to-earth and awesome to work with, Michelle’s your person!

- T.C, North Lakes (Testimonial)

Trainer note from Michelle
hank you so much for your incredibly kind words! It means the world to me that you felt such a positive shift in both your dogs and yourselves during our session. Every dog (and every human!) is unique, and I genuinely love being able to tailor training to what works best for each individual. I'm so glad to hear you felt confident and supported—empowering you to keep things progressing at home between sessions is always one of my top priorities. Your pups were an absolute delight to work with, full of personality and heart, and I can’t wait to see how they continue to thrive. Thank you again for trusting me with your beautiful dogs—I’m looking forward to our next catch-up! Warmest regards, Michelle 🐾

30th April 2025 - Laura Burton

Laura dealt with Chewing, Hyperactivity, Jumping up, Pulling, Puppy management, Sibling rivalry, Toileting

My partner and I had a great experience working with Laura. She was able to explain why my dog was acting in the ways she does and how to understand her behaviours. We started seeing a change instantly with our dogs response to us when using provided techniques, she gave us plenty of information and stayed with us until we were satisfied.

- L.C, Beaumont Hills (Testimonial)

Trainer note from Laura
Hi Layne, Thank you for the review, it was great to see the instant changes in her behaviour and I'm looking forward to our next session. Cheers, Laura

30th April 2025 - Philippa Dakin

Philippa dealt with Chewing, Hyperactivity, Jumping up, Pulling, Separation anxiety

We had the pleasure of working with Phillipa from Bark Busters for behaviour training with our dog, Alfie, and we couldn’t be more impressed. Phillipa was outstanding—she explained everything clearly and took the time to demonstrate each technique before we practiced it ourselves. The improvement in Alfie’s behaviour after just the first session was dramatic. Since then, Phillipa has continued to stay in touch, offering valuable advice and feedback along the way. We highly recommend Phillipa and Bark Busters to anyone seeking effective, professional behaviour training for their dog.

- A.S, MACGREGOR (Testimonial)

Trainer note from Philippa
Great to train with you and Alfie a handsome 1 year old Staffi. Helping with Separation Anxiety, boundaries, recall, lead walking and jumping. He responded so well. Good job all around. I look forward to supporting you in training in the future.

29th April 2025 - Philippa Dakin

It was absolutely the best decision ever to engage Phillipa from Bark Busters. Phillipa arrived on time, and we started working with her and our dog straight away. Huge differences were made with our poodle in the first 15 minutes, and we learnt so much over our first session. As soon as Phillipa began to interact with our dog I knew we were in the hands of a complete professional who cared deeply about the outcomes we needed and the welfare of our dog. My partner and I learned so much! We gained the confidence we needed and now have a much better understanding of how our dog thinks and how to train our dog using simple tools and commands. I feel like we have a completely different dog now in the best possible way. We love him and think that he deserves to live to his best and happiest life. Thank you Phillipa for showing us the way with care! If you feel life could be better with your dog, take the next step with Bark Busters and Phillipa.

- S.D, Tuross Heads (Testimonial)

Trainer note from Philippa
Mallee a 5 year old Miniature poodle had a great time at his Bark Busters training. He is loving his owners speaking dog and being retired from running the show. Lots more time now to relax, chill out and enjoy life. Thank you for inviting Bark Busters to help with his behaviors. Well done to his excellent good kind leaders.

The training content was easy to understand and well demonstrated. We are already seeing the benefits in the behaviour of our dogs. Martin demonstrated extensive experience and knowledge.

Glen & Maureen dealt with Barking, Chewing, Digging, Hyperactivity, Jumping up, Pulling, Recall, Separation anxiety

Happy with Rockys progress although I'm the only one doing the training. I do know it will take a little longer to sort him out.

Glen & Maureen dealt with Barking, Pulling, Recall, Other

I am happy to report that Phoenix is walking very well on the lead. She not barking so much and isn’t quite so nervous.Glen taught us lots and the dog really trusted him.Looking forward to continuing her training.

- J.P, Perth (Testimonial)

Trainer note from Glen & Maureen
Thanks Joyce, Glad she is listening and doing well.

22nd April 2025 - Glen & Maureen Guelfi

Glen & Maureen dealt with Barking, Pulling, Recall

I had rehoused a 2yr old Great Dane, I realised very quickly that a lot of the training was for me. Glen simplified communicating with my big Ed on his level, his techniques are simple to implement and noticed a huge difference in his behaviour. He is more confident with my leadership now and noticed he’s less nervous. I definitely recommend glen, not only trains the dog but retrains you as an owner which is the biggest challenge. Thank you, Glen, for helping me!

- A.P, Midvale (Testimonial)

Trainer note from Glen & Maureen
Love Big Ed, what a great dog!!!

22nd April 2025 - Glen & Maureen Guelfi

Glen & Maureen dealt with Barking, Jumping up, Puppy management

Maureen was very professional, friendly, respectful and easy to work with. She showed us simple techniques to get our dominant dogs to understand we're the leaders and in-charge, not them! So far they're both better on the lead when out walking, and much less protective barking when at home. Great progress so far and more to come....

- E.W, Kensington (Testimonial)

Trainer note from Glen & Maureen
Thanks so much Esme, I am super happy that they are doing so much better, Great work from you both.
