Wow. Our first day of training with Jane and our boisterous puppy is the best behaved that we have experienced in the 9 months we have had him. My sceptic husband had to eat humble pie at the results. We have our homework to do but look forward to a positive future for us and our puppy.

This was an incredible experience. The transformation we saw in Misha even in just one lesson was amazing. We were starting to see behaviour we never thought was possible. I was even able to walk Misha around our yard on a lead without her pulling me over! Philip also helped with the tougher issues like barking and some aggression.
Philip was very patient and kind, and very knowledgable. He explained everything to us so that we understood the why of the methods, not just the how.
Misha is a rescue dog, and not very good with strangers at all, but Philip is very gentle and kind while still being firm, and we were so happy to have him working with us.
We couldn't recommend Philip and Bark Busters more highly to anyone!
Trainer note from Todd
Misha is a big girl! About 35kg. A rescued Rhodesian Ridgeback female of about 4 years old. She has been getting more and more aggressive towards visitors at home, and when in the car. Once she got so worked up in the car when the owner's brother approached the car that she lost her bowels whilst barking so much. Poor girl. Her growling at guests was getting quite scary, although thankfully she has never actually bitten anyone. Also on walks she is reactive and aggressive towards other dogs. Our first lesson went really well, with Misha learning to listen to her humans, and to let go of much of her stress and worry. She showed her true nature (which is soft and a little worried) and her humans learnt that she is putting on an act of being big and scary. She really loved having her humans take the lead and let her know in our gentle way that she needn't try to control the situations. She will take more time to really relax fully, but her humans know a lot more now about Canine Communication. And with consistent practice Misha will get better and better with coping with new people. Well done all of you!

Stefanie dealt with Barking, Jumping up, Sibling rivalry
Stefanie was very clear in her instructions & requirements of myself and my dog. She was very easy to talk to honestly regarding any concerns I have with my dog or the training. I look forward to further training Inka with the tools and skills Stefanie gave me to further improve my dogs separation anxiety.
Trainer note from Stefanie
Inka (Mastiff x Staffy) is such a cutie pie and was so responsive during her lesson! I'm looking forward to getting further improvements in her future lessons. Keep up the great work!

Thank you so much for your kind words Hayley... You and Princess were an absolute pleasure to work with! Princess is a 2 year old Great Dane cross Mastiff. She is a sweet girl but at times insecure. We have a good training plan to work on, and I look forward to our next lesson and then getting her down to a Park Session :)

Philip came to train us so that our new puppy would be able to have her excessive barking and chewing issues dealt with in a natural way.
Trainer note from Todd
Bella is a 7 month old Japanese Spitz puppy who was barking at shadows, at the TV and every noise from outside the house. She also jumped on everyone all the time, and she wouldn't come when called. Her humans love her very much and learned to "speak dog" just a little, so they can correct her barking. She also used to go crazy with the broom and vacuum. All these behaviours were dealt with and she is much quieter already. I will see her again soon and we will continue her Bark Buster's training in walking on the lead. She's a super cute little ball of white love!

Ken dealt with Barking, Jumping up, Sibling rivalry
Ken was awesome. He is patient, friendly and knowledgeable. The first session was like magic! He is continuing to support us with our two spoodles but the change in them was immediate. The dogs seem happier and so are we. Thanks Ken for hitting just the right note in your training sessions. I would recommend you to anyone.

Glen & Maureen dealt with Hyperactivity, Jumping up, Pulling, Recall, Other
Glen explained the training perfectly, it made a lot of sense and it was easy to follow. I couldn't believe how much different my dog was after just one session. Absolutely 100% pleased with the training and found it all very interesting. I felt very comfortable and relaxed and gave me the confidence that I could do it myself when Glen had left.

Very impressed with just one session. Our dogs have changed a lot and we feel as if we have more control of them.
Trainer note from Catharina
Monty (German Shepherd) and Bronson (Rhodesian Ridgeback) are two gorgeous boys who needed some help with walking properly on the lead, house manners and learning how to play nicely together. They did great in their first lesson, and needles to say they were pretty tuckered out! Great work guys!
