We had our first session with Heather yesterday and it was really good! The session was customised to suit our lifestyle, our goals and of course, our puppy. We understand how important puppy training is and we now feel equipped to start teaching Sayla. We are very excited for future sessions and watching Sayla become a well behaved member of the family.

Great training really learnt a lot in regards to us having problems with barging through doors and barking. Philip was very patient with us and Buddy.
Trainer note from Todd
Buddy is a big boy at about 45 kg! Almost 2 years old Labradoodle male. Used to ruling his home he was pushing past at doors and almost knocking over the elderly Dad. He also slept on their bed despite them wanting him to sleep on the floor. The Bark Busters techniques helped immediately with his door barging and sleeping on the bed is now a thing of the past. Following lessons will work more on walking without pulling. He’s done really well so far!

Excellent training session with Heather - she was engaging, passionate and gave us very helpful tips to train our puppy. She gave us technical demonstrations and then had us practice them at our house and also at our local park. The hands-on approach is absolutely invaluable. We all had a great time learning very useful skills and our puppy is now learning and improving everyday!

This was amazing. The techniques make so much sense, are relatively straight forward to practice and so, so effective. Poppy is so much calmer, happier and quieter!
Trainer note from Todd
Cavoodle Poppy is about 2 years and was barking heaps especially since her family moved here from NZ. Her humans also embarked upon a big home renovation and with all the disruption Poppy’s barking got worse. Now the Council are involved with a warning letter received. At our first lesson Poppy showed her true nature (sweet and soft) and techniques were learnt to correct her barking. She responded perfectly. Her humans need to do a little 15-20 minutes of daily practice to settle her into her Bark Busters’ routine. Easy!

Peter dealt with Other
Peter came to my workplace to assess my rescued greyhound for the purpose of providing dog therapy to the local nursing homes. He tested her under many different conditions and also my ability to handle her. The assessment was very thorough and extended to the outside of my work where there is high traffic of cars and pedestrians. That would have been enough but Peter offered some great advice about what to feed her. I took his advice and can see how much healthier she looks and it was actually cheaper than mainstream dog biscuits. I am very grateful to Peter for this advice.
Trainer note from Peter
Hi Hilda, Thank you . Tully is a lovely rescue greyhound and I am glad she is well accepted into the nursing homes to help the community. Glad Bark Busters could help you with your assessment and advice.

Philip helped us to overcome the aggression, barking, and walking problems with Lexi in an easy and effective way. Thanks!
Trainer note from Todd
Lexi is a 2 year old (young!) German Shepherd desexed male. He is a large dog and very powerful. His aggressive outbursts towards other dogs were confronting and he had had training from other local dog trainers which has not helped the issue improve. We saw improvement with the Bark Buster' methods. His humans need to remain consistent with Lexi and this issue is not resolved yet. But we saw improvement and certainly his walking without pulling has been vastly improved. His reaction to other dogs is still there but his humans know how to deal with this and have seen improvement even with this difficult and strong boy. Keep up the daily training and call me when you need further help! Our Lifetime Support Guarantee is for dogs like Lexi who might need more help than most.

Philip provided excellent instruction, assistance in the lesson and training of Beau. You can see instant results and improvement in Beau's behaviour. Highly recommended.
Trainer note from Todd
Beau is a gorgeous 7 month male Pomeranian pup and the apple of his owners eye. But he had a dangerous behaviour. Rushing out the front door and OFF down the busy street to adventures. So in lesson one we taught him that humans go through doors first. He must wait patiently until invited through. His humans loved learning and Beau did brilliantly too!

Stefanie dealt with Sibling rivalry
We contacted Stef from Bark Busters regarding our little Georgia’s separation anxiety. When we would leave Georgia at home she would constantly cry and become destructive, destroying the timber around our doors and windows. We didn’t know what to do until we met Stef. Stef sat down with Georgia and us and discussed training techniques that would suit us and our battle with the separation anxiety. We have put these techniques into action and our little Georgia Is on the right track to becoming more confident when she is left at home by herself. We thank Stef & Bark Busters for all the information and help given to us so that moving forward we have all the right training techniques to use with our little Georgia.
Trainer note from Stefanie
1 year old rescue staffy, Georgia is such a sweetheart! She is super lucky to be adopted into such a wonderful, patient and understanding family! It has been wonderful to see her steadily gaining independence when left alone and listening to her family for directions! Keep up the fantastic work!

Glen & Maureen dealt with Barking, Digging, Hyperactivity, Jumping up, Pulling, Recall, Sibling rivalry
Glen was fantastic. The training techniques were explained in a way that was easy to follow and understand. He also provided a lot of information on our dogs diet and exercise that was extremely helpful and made complete sense. We found the training to be very interesting and enjoyable and have observed a noticeable change in both our dogs in a very short time. They still have a bit to go to get them where we want them but we now feel confident that we have the tools, knowledge and ongoing support of Glen to get them there.

Tilly is an 18 month old rescue golden retriever who had problems with barking, not being able to walk on a lead and thinking she ruled the roost. We were struggling to gain control and settle her in to our family. After one lesson with Philip we are already seeing a big improvement in control on the lead, coming when called, and basic obedience. The training was easy to follow and we received lots of great helpful info. We’d highly recommend Bark Busters. Thank you Philip!
Trainer note from Todd
That's a really great review thanks Kate! Tilly is a lovely girl and will make a wonderful pet for you both. She will settle in well over the coming weeks. Well done today yourself!
