Trainer note from Todd
Thank you David that's so nice. David and Nicole are the proud humans of two stunning dogs Coco and Sasha. Coco is a nine month old female Keeshond and Sasha is a 16 month old finish Lapphund. Their main issues were barking at the door, jumping on guests uncontrollably, pulling on the lead and there were some fights between the two female dogs. Within minutes of arriving their humans understood how to stop them jumping on guests. By the end of our three hour lesson all the behaviours have been examined and great strategies implemented to deal with them in the future. We tested the results by asking David and Nichole's parents to drop in and demonstrated how to deal with the excitement that I guest arriving causes causes. It went very well.

Philippa dealt with Puppy management
Philippa is so professional , but friendly and approachable. Monty, my husband and I all warmed to her immediately. She answered all,our questions, and hopefully, set Monty and us on the path to good puppy manners.......we realise this depends on us doing the right thing by Monty. This isn't always easy, but we're trying.
We feel we can ring Philippa at any time with any behavioural problems, which is a comfort to us.
We look forward to our next appointment.
Trainer note from Philippa
Monty an 8 week Labradoodle is settling in well with his new pack. He's been introduced to the lead and enjoying following his leader. We covered the foundations for good recall, settling on his bed and having a positive association with his crate...his own comfy den. He keeps a eye on his leader and waits to be invited through the door. He's chosen a great new family. Welcome to the Bark Busters family. Hi 0

We realized right within the first 5 minutes that we were doing everything wrong. What we learned from our behavioral therapist Grace was extraordinarily insightful and completely changed how we communicated with our rescued puppy Jolene. Jolene immediately responded to our new communication and behaviour tactics. She was like a different dog. I would recommend Bark Busters to anyone, even the most difficult cases. 2

Head Office dealt with Barking, Hyperactivity
When we contacted Bark Busters, we were at our wit's end with our new rescue kelpie, Eva - incessant barking and limitless energy that nothing seemed to satisfy. Jane completely transformed our girl. She used to bark non-stop between the hours of 4:30-9pm and after using Jane's tools and strategies, she hardly says a word. Jane gave us the confidence to train our puppy and teach her how to be part of our family. Eternally grateful!
Trainer note from Head Office
Little Eva needed to be shown the boundaries and what is acceptable behaviour and what was unacceptable behaviour. I really enjoyed working with this family and everyone did a really great job responding to Bark Busters' training methods.

Graeme has helped us a lot with Monty and his barking, recall and walking on the lead as before our visit with Graeme Monty was a bit of a nuisance barker, yapping at anything that walked past our house. He has helped put the training methods in place to turn Monty into a well behaved dog.
Trainer note from Head Office
Monty the Cavoodle did very well and loves pleasing his pack leaders.

Catharina dealt with Aggression, Barking, Pulling, Recall
We never thought that we would get our dogs to even be in the same room! Now they are best friends! Cat was brilliant and knew exactly what she was doing and how to handle both of our super strong dogs.
Trainer note from Catharina
Thank you Rickie-lee for taking the time to right a review :) Storm (4 year old American Bulldog) and Dexter (5 year old Pitbull x Mastiff) have each had their own sets of issues around sibling rivalry, dog aggression, pulling on the lead, jumping and general obedience. We had to start out with getting them to meet with our goal being for them to live together in harmony. It has been great to see how they responded to the training and how they became best mates! Well done guys!!

Graeme has been great. The training sessions haven't been too long or short and he really helps you feel comfortable and confident with each technique.
Trainer note from Head Office
A pleasure to help Sunny the Airedale and her pack leaders. She has responded very well to the techniques we use and is thriving on the mental stimulation.

Bark Busters was an interesting and very useful experience - for me and Wilco. We had a bit of a barking and also jumping up issues with an otherwise well behaved dog. It was interesting how quickly and significantly Grace was able to change Wilco's behaviour. He also seems much more relaxed now he is not holding himself responsible for site protection! Can recommend the approach and service.

From the first moment I met Jane I felt really comfortable with her. She explained things really well, listened to everything I had to say and showed ways to settle down my 11 month old Cavoodle puppy. Also explained how important it was for me to be the boss - not Archie. Each lesson has been enjoyable because Jane is so calm.and teaches you that also. Can't thank you enough Jane.
Trainer note from Head Office
It was such a pleasure to work with Archie and his Mum. Archie is listening well and learning very quickly how to be a calm and happy cavoodle. Great work Mum & Archie:))

Graeme was very knowledgeable and well informed. He was also patient and nonjudgemental. I feel I have already benefited from my first visit.
Trainer note from Head Office
Josie the Papillon started to find there were a few new rules around the house that applied to her and she has a pack leader.

Faith has given us lots of tips and techniques to use with our puppy, which are straightforward and easy to follow. Best of all, she demonstrated exactly what to do, and our puppy was a different boy during the time she spent with him. We now know what is possible, and with Faith's help, can work towards this.

It was so wonderful to meet you! Beautiful pup!
