Glen & Maureen dealt with Barking, Chewing, Digging, Jumping up, Puppy management, Recall, Toileting
Maureen spent around 3 hours addressing all the problems/needs we had regarding our puppy George. As soon as we all sat down at table to discuss George's behavior he jumped up onto table and Maureen straight away give us techniques to address this. His response was instant and in the days following i was consistent in following her advice and here we are 4 days later George doesn't even go near the table anymore. We also haven't had any accidents in the house either. He also has improved beyond what i expected in such a short time with his many unacceptable behaviors. I am over the moon with the instant results and will definitely keep it up as i am now enjoying the time i spend with George. He also is much more relaxed than he was last week. I couldn't at this stage be more happier.
Trainer note from Glen & Maureen
Thanks Violet, I am so happy little George is being obedient and listening to you, happy days!!!

Ric dealt with Aggression, Barking, Hyperactivity, Jumping up, Pulling, Recall, Separation anxiety
Ric was very patient and accommodating which I found to be invaluable during the training of my six year-old German Shepherd, Zivah. With little to no prior training from her previous owner, I found Zivah showed promise under Ric's guidance and despite having quite severe anxiety, appeared to be thoroughly enjoying his company. Ric acknowledged that Zivah has a long way to go to get her where we want her, but I found his positive attitude very motivational. While it's early days, Zivah is showing baby-step improvements and I intend to get Ric back to make sure I'm trained as best I can so that Zivah is set-up to succeed.
Trainer note from Ric
Hello Jacqui, Thank you for your lovely review, as we know Zivah has developed quite a high level of anxiety coupled with some resulting behavioural issues. Stick with the exercises, you will see progress. When I come back out we will continue to move forward, Unfortunately some cases do take a little more time than others. With consistency and patience we will see great progress. You both achieved quite a lot in our first session that's a huge step forward. I am only a phone call away if you need anything. Kind Regards Ric

Ric dealt with Aggression, Barking, Jumping up, Pulling, Separation anxiety
Was a great lesson with Ric and showing us what we can do to help our dog and also help us in a way to get our dog under control with things that would set him off & what we can do to reduce the amount of anxiety our dog has when we leave home. We are still in the process of training our dog with the techniques shown and demonstrated in our lesson and fingers crossed all goes well moving forward. Our dog responded so well in the first 10 mins of Ric being there and our dog was not very inviting to visitors in our home and could see improvement as the lesson went on.
Trainer note from Ric
Hello Krystal, Thank you for your review, Rocky showed a bit of fear when I first arrived as he does as you explained with all visitors but by the end of our session he was very relaxed and friendly towards me, he picked up the training very well. With what I showed you, keep up consistent training with each of the exercises, Rocky was so responsive, you will see great achievements and progress.

We are 4 days after the initial training session and it feels like we have a new dog already. Luna is responding really well to the techniques introduced by Cat and we look forward to demonstrating her progress at the next training session.
Trainer note from Catharina
Thanks so much for leaving a review Jonathan, it was a pleasure to help you with Luna, she is a good dog but I could definitely see where she was testing you. It was great to see her respond for you, and I look forward to seeing your progress at your next lesson!

Amazing day and amazing trainer, explained everything so clearly and showed me lots of techniques that worked straight away. Cannot wait for my next lesson
Trainer note from Catharina
Thanks for leaving a review Sam! I loved working with you and Tyga and Bruce (Westi x Maltese and Jack Russell). Seeing their barking going from reacting to every little sound to them being calm and relaxed even with those distractions was wonderful to see. I know you will enjoy the calmer walks and I look forward to building on your training in your next lesson :)

Hi, great result - although it is still a bit off a struggle from time to time, the training is helping with controlling Emma.

Martin dealt with Pulling, Recall
I cannot believe the progress we are starting to make with Remy after only one session so far with Martin. I am really excited to see how Remy performs after a few more sessions. Martin explained his training methods clearly and concisely which has made it easier to implement the follow-up training at home. We have our next session in a couple of weeks and I am really looking forward to it.
Trainer note from Martin
Hi Meg, thank you for your kind words and review. It was a pleasure working with you and Remy on her behaviours. Keep practicing daily and keep up the good work!

Ric was extremely professional, friendly and effective. He familiarised himself with Suki's environment and quickly provided simple and meaningful suggestions to rectify a range of Suki's less desirable behaviours. I am confident that with Ric's patient and clear guidance, I will be able to train my cavoodle to be an obedient, happy and more relaxed member of the household.
Trainer note from Ric
Hello Jenny, Suki is a darling girl, with a little structure she will become even better. Thank you for allowing me to help with your situation and thank you for choosing Bark Busters. Suki was very responsive and she will pick it up very quickly I'm sure of it. I am only a phone call away if and when you need anything, see you in a couple weeks. Thanks you again for this lovely review . Kind Regards Ric
