Bark Busters Reviews and Customer Testimonials

The instant result of Zoro responding to that one magic word, was amazing. Our other dog, Lucy, has also learnt from it. My husband James, proved to be a natural in applying the techniques we were taught for walking leadwork and door exercise. I will need to practice. I had a better result the next day, when it was just me and Zoro.

For a young dog/puppy that is nervous, finds it hard to calm down in group sessions and has had a scare from a very large unsocial dog out in public. We have found our fist lesson at home very rewarding. Having Cat come to the house so that Emma has a chance to learn in a less stressful environment has helped with Emma and that I am very thank full for.

From the moment you walked in you were working on the dogs behavior. And they actually responded. We were shocked. We both thought it would be a lot harder than it has been. This is only our first session but we're really happy with progress so far.

Me and Radley are so much happier after your (Maureen's) help and I am completely satisfied with the service. A lot of what Maureen said resonated with me - in that I understood how my puppy thought so I could train properly. I think I learned just as much as Radley. Life improved immensely after our first lesson. You guys are lifesavers.

The training was transformative! Glen was friendly, helpful and very professional and above all made the desired outcomes seem very achievable . He explained all aspects of the program in very straightforward terms and enabled me to be the 'expert' with my own dog . I particularly liked his direct assessment of the issues and the way in which he directed me to be able to change my dogs behavioural 'problems' by actually changing mine! The program is very client centred and I cannot recommend the service highly enough

We are so thrilled with our Bark Busters trainer Jane and the wonders she has worked with our GSP Sascha. It’s just beautiful to see Sascha respond and want to learn and please.

Janette has been amazing over the past few months. Before we met Janette, we thought the only way to tire our high-energy Hungarian Vizsla was to run 5-10km with him every. single. day... We also had to avoid having him inside because he could not sit still... and by that I mean he used to pick up EVERYTHING with his mouth and carry it around the house... ??‍♀️ After one session with Janette, we saw a difference. I admit that both my partner and I were hesitant and a little skeptical at first. These thoughts vanished after the first session. Lenny was cooperative with the methods she used. By the second lesson, Lenny was able to come inside and lay on a mat next to our Golden, Leo. This left us incredibly surprised! We could not believe how much he had improved within such a short time frame. We didn’t think it was possible. It was a huge improvement!! Of course, in true vizsla style, Lenny has since found ways to show his cheeky side and bend the rules... Janette has helped us correct these behaviours with her extensive knowledge. She has never failed to bring a new idea to the table. (Tip: try crate training... we were reluctant to at first... but it has worked wonders for us!) I can safely say that I would not hesitate to recommend Janette’s service. We are almost there with Lenny’s behaviour... just a few minor things to go. My partner would agree that since seeing Janette, Lenny’s behaviour has improved so much, that it sometimes feels like we now have a whole new dog! Knowing how to properly communicate with Lenny has been the best learning for me. 5/5 service

Emma was excellent. She was incredibly thorough and asked us so many questions - as a result I was confident that she had a good understanding of us and our dogs, as well as that our session was tailored specifically to our needs. The techniques are easy to apply and do not require any physical reprimanding of the animals which is something I was worried about. We saw a massive improvement just in the first session, and have had continued success with the training - now over a month later. Emma set realistic expectations with us and was clear about what we need to do to ensure the training worked. I would highly recommend Emma to anyone having behavioural problems with their fur babies - it's a worthwhile investment!

Bindi and I had our first session today and Glen put us both at ease. Bindi responded really well to Glen and he took into account that she only had 3 legs. We look forward to continuing our training.

Jane was great, she knew exactly how to tame all of Alfie's bad behaviours. It was a lot more simple than I thought it would be which made it achievable to fix in a short period. She made us understand why he's doing the things he is and how to manage them before it escalates. Very happy.

Phillipa was excellent at teaching me how to be a kind leader to my very anxious dog. We have made so much progress in the first lesson and I can already see an improvement with her. I could not recommend bark busters enough.

Was unhappy with conventional dog training clubs and so used Bark Busters in February, 1996 in Sydney. Moving to country was able to have phone conversations with Martin ( the lifetime guarantee ). Decided time to invest in upgrading my training with new puppy and love the new equipment and ideas. Our dogs and cats are fed raw meat and bones, chicken carcases and raw eggs, veg and fruit. What they eat contributes to their health and wellbeing and interaction with other livestock.
