Bark Busters Reviews and Customer Testimonials

Really helpful, the intro was great and taught me a lot and got me into the right frame of mind to understand my dogs behaviour. Practicing the exercises with Philip alongside was really beneficial so I knew exactly how to train my dog in the future.

Excellent

Faith is excellent. Clear in explanation, good in demonstrations and kind to my dog. Boo will be a challenge due to the agoraphobia, but we will work with Faith to give her the best chance of being more confident outside. I got a lot out of this session, both on a canine behavioural level and practical level.

I was very stressed before Glen arrived. It was great to realise I was in control, and that the techniques are easy to do on my own. Really easy to implement, it all made sense. I couldn't believe the difference.

We felt Ken was very professional yet friendly in his approach and took care to note all our concerns in our initial meeting. His techniques were simple, consistent and easy to understand and had a instant desired effect on Kimura. Ken was very patient in showing us and having us practice the techniques on Kimura, in particular, how to correct bad behaviour using an effective correction scale. We've had two sessions with Ken and already this made a huge difference to our lives. We have already recommended Ken to a friend with two dogs.

We were very impressed with Graeme's knowledge and the way he relayed this to us. He was very patient and we were inspired by his enthusiasm. Graeme has been excellent in providing us with methods to allow us to know what to do with our dogs and how to appropriately train them. He has an excellent manner and we are very glad to have made the decision to seek expert advice.

We saw improvements immediately. Instructions were clear and easy to follow and corrections to our techniques were useful.

Having Catharina come a help us was the best thing we could have done for us and our 2 wonderful dogs. Walking 2 large breed dogs on my own was becoming a problem with them pulling on the lead and wanting to go see other dogs to the point where I obtained an injury. That was the day I called Catharina. From then on there has been no looking back. Both dogs are now responding with recall and are no longer pulling on the lead while walking. We are working on attentive training which has worked so quickly and I am now enjoying walking them again. We still have a little way to go with the meeting of other dogs but I can see this will be resolved with continued training and support from Catharina. All training has been done with no aggression shown towards the dogs and with only positive reinforcement as a reward. I absolutely recommend for anyone who has an issue with there beautiful dogs to call Catharina and in no time you will see a transformation. Thank-you Catharina

Great learning some wonderful easy step to controlling my puppy.

Stefanie was punctual & knowledgeable. She was patient with Raven as well as all the members of our family. We felt that going to puppy school wasn't the right option for us, as this means only one person learns the training techniques, this way we all use the same language when speaking to Raven, who has already improved after 1 session.

Archie came to us as a rescue and had behavourial problems as well. Although we are a very whippet savvy family who have a number of rescue whippets with their own issues, Archie was different. Peter was recommended to us and upon Peter meeting Archie he knew exactly how to help our boy. To my great relief Peter let me know that what I had put into place to assist Archie as well as what I was feeding all our whippets was great, I just needed to tweak some things. I watched as Peter spent time working with Archie and instantly I could see the dog start to relax and respond to Peter. I will continue with Peter's suggestions and I look forward to watching our young man grow into the boy I know he can become. I can't thank Peter enough for his time and effort and to know that Archie and I have his lifelong support. I can't recommend Peter highly enough and love that he is a kind, gentle man willing to work to help any dog with any issues. Thank you Peter Sonya and Archie Whippet.

I was 100% happy by the end of the training - I had different dogs! After Glen left, I've been practicing the techniques and I can't believe how effective they are. I learnt a lot as well as my dogs. It seems I required as much training as they did. Money very well spent - I can't thank Glen enough. He was friendly, funny, polite and had my dogs under control immediately.
