Absolutely brilliant Jett is much calmer and relaxed which is so good for him. Training was simple and they really understand what was best for Jett first and foremost then what we were doing wrong.

Amazing! Just one session with Emma has already given us instant results at home! I couldn’t recommend Emma and the bark busters team enough for giving us the help to bring our dog back to a beautiful and well mannered part of the family
Trainer note from Emma
Ollie is a stunning 4 year old Swiss Shepherd, and his mum initially called Bark Busters to help with his dog reactive behaviour. Unfortunately Ollie had been attacked by other dogs numerous times whilst he was growing up & this had left him with quite severe dog reactivity. To help Ollie to get over his fear of being attacked and be able to relax, we showed his mum how to take the lead and show Ollie that she was in charge and would protect him. We also dealt with Ollie's pulling on the lead & not coming when called, and his attention seeking behaviour & behaviour around the front door too. :) Ollie's mum did a great job & with her consistency & Bark Busters support Ollie will continue to improve.

Ella the 6 month old American Bulldog x American Staffy was up to no good, and as she was already growing into a BIG girl her family knew it was time for help, so they called Bark Busters. Her mum's biggest concern was Ella's dominant and sometimes aggressive behaviour towards her 5 year old Maltese x Shih Tzu brother. During our first session along with her behaviour towards her brother we dealt with: - Barking - Jumping - Pulling on the lead - Answering the front door - Destructive behaviour - Recall - Visitors arriving - Recall We saw an instant turn around in Ella's behaviour & I cannot wait to see her continue to progress. :)

Emma is AMAZING!
We asked her to help us with solutions for walking our 4 month puppy Steve, as he was very fearful of and reactive to other dogs. What we didn’t realise, is that she would help us with so much more!
Not only is Steve now an absolute pleasure to take for walks, his compliance with basic commands has improved drastically. He sits, stays, waits for food, doesn’t barge through doors without being invited in, he is more relaxed when visitors come over, doesn’t jump up on people, and the play fighting and food aggression towards our other dog has also greatly reduced.
Using the simple but highly effective strategies that Emma taught us means that we are confident and in control.
We have successfully taken him to meet and play with other dogs without incident.
Having Emma share her magic with us was truly life-changing for us all. We love our beautiful boy even more than we thought possible.
Thank you Emma, we are so appreciative of everything you have done for our family.
Trainer note from Emma
Thanks Jane. Steve is a great puppy, who with your leadership will now grow into a fantastic job. It's been great already seeing you guys at our park sessions where you can practice your skills further.

Thanks Michelle. Django, the 17m old Red Heeler, and Summer, the 5 year old Mastiff x Cattle dog, have recently moved from a cattle station to suburbia & their behaviour needed to be brought into line. Between them they had a list of problems: - Barking - Jumping - Pulling on the lead - Recall - Mouthing - Hyperactive behaviour - Rushing to/through the front door - Pestering for attention Django was also very possessive with toys & food, and Summer was suffering with anxiety, she was storm fearful & fearful of men, particularly in hats. Their mum did an awesome job & we saw improvements with both dogs straight away. Looking forward to seeing their continued progress & having them at our park sessions soon.

An amazing experience.
I never thought tucka my dog would learn things just on the first session.
So over the moon with this thank you so much.
Trainer note from Emma
Thanks Brianna. Tucka is a gorgeous 3 year old Staffy x Pitbull, but his behaviour didn't match his good looks. His aggression towards visitors meant that his mum was EXTREMELY worried about people coming to the house, and his aggression towards people & dogs on the street was so bad that he really wasn't being walked. Along with his aggression Tucka was also causing trouble with: - Barking - Jumping - Mouthing - Not coming when called - Separation anxiety - Sneaking onto the sofa Tucka & his mum did an awesome job during their first session, and within a couple of hours Tucka was calm and relaxed inside the house and listening to his mum. Keep up the great work. :)
