Bark Busters Reviews and Customer Testimonials

OMG we are living with a different dog! Or maybe he's living with different parents! Hugh was great - very knowledgeable and re-assuring. He was patient and explained why certain things worked (or didn't work in our case!). Hugh's techniques worked on the day and continue to work with our training. We went through all the things on our list without being rushed - you can tell Hugh really cares for dogs and their owners.

Philip was an outstanding trainer. He worked with us in our home for three hours, explaining and demonstrating how to train our new puppy, Lady, ourselves so that she understood who was top dog and felt safe and secure left alone. Phil taught us how to speak to Lady in her own language, and she seems much calmer and we are all calmer as a result. She sleeps well through the night, is comfortable left alone curled up happily in her enclosure, hasn't had any toileting accidents inside since Phil trained with us and will wait patiently to be let in and out of doors. And this is all in the space of three days! The results for Lady were immediate - it was amazing. Phil even taught us about the way we should be feeding Lady to properly nourish her and make her tummy more settled. I highly recommend engaging Phil to train a new puppy so that you can start off on the right foot with their behaviour. You will never need to go back and correct behavioural problems because you will be communicating with your puppy in a way she understands from the beginning.

Faith was great and after just two days since her visit we are seeing a huge improvement in barking and behaviour.

John was extremely thorough and made sure that everything he went through was detailed and correctly understood before moving on to the next point. We had an issue with our rescue cattle x kelpie Max nipping at strangers and although this specific problem was not covered in the training explicitly, the techniques that John gave us worked unbelievably well with Max and there was incredible improvement in his behaviour immediately after the first session. Within days they had stopped barking at the neighbour's dog all together. Both dogs now wait at the door for us to walk past them and then call then out when we leave the house. They will usually stop barking immediately when asked, will sit and stay and come when called. We have not yet trained them to walk on the lead, as it is difficult to find the time having recently had our second child (normally take them off-leash at a private property). However, John has given us the skills to be able to teach them to walk on the lead, and I am confident that in the future it will be possible. I would highly recommend John to anyone who wants more control over their dogs and a better relationship with their furry friends!

Allan was fantastic! We sat down and discussed the issues we were having and within minutes we had a better understanding of butters (our dog) and why he was doing what he was. Allan taught us simple methods to fix issues of food aggression and naughty behaviour which worked and have resulted with a friendlier, happier pup :)

We asked for help with our 18 month old Maltese, Indie, as we were having trouble with things such as barking, establishing leadership, recall and walking. Since Hugh came to visit we have found Indie has improved a lot in most area. The areas that are taking longer are the ones that we haven't practised much with her so we will be continuing to focus on those areas.

It was an eye-opener for me to see how assisted training can truly help a dog to be man's best friend. While there are other training methods available, one hears or reads about, Bark Busters seem easier and far more effective.

Hi Paul, Hope you are well. I am just following up as we were meant to touch base about making a time to come visit. At this stage with the dogs we are travelling along well and I don't see the need for you to come out for a visit - which is a good thing! Your first visit last year helped us so much. Our dogs Minnie and Lola have settled well. I will keep in touch with you in the future if any other issues may arise that we need help with. Thanks so much Paul,

We are amazed! Peter was brilliant and 2 days later our naughty puppy is an obedient angel! Peter explained everything to the family and made it simple. We cannot thank him enough. Life changing!

Absolutely incredible! Faith is amazing at what she does and has the answer for all questions! Both my pups have turned a massive corner and I now feel so confident in leading them! Thank you Faith!

Thoroughly enjoyed Banjo, and I guess my , first training session with Graeme. Graeme is very passionate about his training of Banjo. I think Banjo and I will get a lot out of his experience in the future

My primary purpose was to stop Storm from incessant barking. Over the couple of days since the training she has been mostly quiet. Occasionally she does bark but responds to the stop barking technique we were given in the lesson. The other issues I had such as jumping up, ramming the fence and unruly behaviour when walking with a lead have also been fixed. Philip was a total professional in the way he dressed, presented the material and instructed us in the methods for addressing Storm's behaviour. He also has a genuine love for dogs which made us feel just that little bit more comfortable. I would happily recommend Bark Busters to anyone with a dog problem.tw
