Bark Busters Reviews and Customer Testimonials

We really appreciate how Maureen helped us understand our beagle pup better. And besides training advice, she gave us tips on how to improve Bear’s diet and overall wellbeing. It’s been less than a week since our first session, and we’ve already noticed some improvements in Bear’s behavior. Thank you Maureen, can’t wait till our next session!

Throughly enjoyable experience learnt so much. Thank you.

From the minute Cat walked through our front door she showed our puppy how to listen and obey her commands. Cat showed us how to repeat this with our puppy ourselves. We had a bit of trouble with jumping and nipping, stealing items and running away with them and Cat helped us to remedy these behaviours with practice. First lesson was great but continued having issues with her jumping up to granddaughter to the point she was unable to come out of her room. I contacted Cat before our scheduled next session and she thankfully came as an additional session to address what required to be done. We already see a difference and we are very grateful.

This training has changed our lives! We were finding our dog walks to be impossible, with a very reactive dog. After 2 sessions only with Cat from Bark Busters South West, actually even after the first session, our dog was a different dog! He was more calm and confident. Cat is awesome and so easy to work with. She makes you feel comfortable and confident as well and the one-on-one sessions are so much better than trying to do a group class with an anxious dog. Our dog Fil is now relaxed and happy and we no longer dread our walks. In fact we love them.😊 I can highly recommend the training. Best decision we made! Thanks Cat x Sue

I was always sceptical about trainers and believing one would help our situation with two snags, Frankie (male) and Bonnie (female). They bark at the door, they bark at people/dogs on walks and they have severe separation anxiety. It’s a work in progress but my wife and I couldn’t believe how effective Kelly’s queues were to get them on track. It’s true when they say, is it the owner or dogs being trained and 100% it’s us being educated about how to deal with different situations. I took them out on a walk for the first time after the session with Kelly and was utterly blown away. Kelly taught us how to get them not to pull on lead (no bribery) and for 3km they didn’t once go in front of me (pack leading) they were my side for the entire walk. I’m genuinely excited for our next session and couldn’t recommend Kelly enough. If you want straight forward/easy to follow instructions to get your puppy/dog on track, Kelly is the trainer for you!

Very supportive and available for whenever a need arises!

Emma covered all aspects of dog behaviour. Already I feel a vast improvement in behaviour, especially control of barking and jumping. Still have a way to go, but with Emma's guidance and assistance, Ziggy, Ralphy and I will get to where we want to be. Many thanks Emma and BarkBusters.

Laura was amazing with Monty improving in so many ways with his issues exponentially from her first meeting him and the other dogs... he is now not barking anywhere as much as he was and i can ask him to be quiet with great results...I have a happier dog and the stress levels have plummeted in the home for us all :)

Glen truly is the dog whisperer. Honestly before our lesson with him, mum and I were struggling with dogs who, while mostly good, has a few teething problems that we were struggling to manage. Since Glen’s visit, there has been a sense of calm and control in the house. Walking will be much easier too! Money definitely well spent and I recommend this service to everyone! Another thing I really appreciated was the barkbusters approach. Gentle correction and praise, my dogs respond so well.

We had our first session with Glen, Glen walked in and within half an hour he was able to pick up on what was happening in regard to my pups behaviour. There were so many light bulb moments, I learnt how many of the things I do, without realising, was actually enabling my pup, I was then given tools to correct these behaviours. I'm looking forward to continuing our work with Glen, he is literally the dog guru.

The lesson was incredibly educational and insightful. Philippa was so patient and encouraging during the lesson and gave us the perfect tools to start improving Bowsers confidence and respect.

So happy with our first lesson with Glen. We are already seeing great improvement with Bernard.
