21st July 2018 - Stefanie Budiman
Stefanie dealt with Jumping up, Recall, Sibling rivalry
Stefanie was great to work with, she was professional and patient as we navigated some behavioural changes with our boy Trevor. She has also been a great resource as we refine our skills and feel very confident that she will support us into the future. A great experience for Trevor as well as us. Thanks Stefanie!
Trainer note from Stefanie
Thanks Judy! Trevor (1 year old terrier cross) is such a good natured pup, brimming with exuberance. He was very responsive to training, immediately calming down after starting his first lesson. He improved in his car manners by sitting calmly and also not crying when being left alone in the car. He also now walks next to his family instead of pulling ahead. Well done Trevor and his family!

Todd dealt with Barking, Puppy management, Sibling rivalry, Toileting
Philip was very patient and provided excellent guidance. I noticed an immediate improvement in my five month old dachshund. Money well spent.
Trainer note from Todd
Bruno is just 5 months old and the cutest little guy ever. His loving humans needed help with toilet training as they live in a unit on the second floor. Bruno was also crying and barking when left alone. In fact he barked as soon as his humans left his sight. Here’s an sms I received the morning after our initial lesson: “Thank you so much Philip last night was the first night we slept through uninterrupted!! You’re a miracle worker!†Well done Bruno too!

Absolutely brilliant. We had instant success with Kobe and he is so pleasant to be around and much calmer around the house. Worth every penny

Cat is amazing. I wasn't confident that anyone would be able to teach my dog to walk on his lead without pulling and grabbing it in his mouth and becoming quite aggressive. Cat is like a magician and had my dog doing several things including walking on his lead within 2 and a half hours. We were left with training to do with my dog everyday and I thought that this afternoons training would be interesting seeing as Catharina wasn't here and that Bau might play up, but to my surprise he did everything perfect. I would highly recommend Catharina and Bark Busters.

Trainer note from Catharina
Bau is a beautiful year old, 50kg, American Bulldog cross American Staffi. He had issues around pulling on the lead, grabbing at his lead and generally being a handful on walks which meant he wasn't getting to go out as much as his owners would like. He also was dominating to their other 13 year old dog. He was jealous of any attention his owners gave her. He responded very well to the Bark Busters training, and to his owners, I'm looking forward to our next session where we can progress him further! Well done guys!

Head Office dealt with Barking, Recall, Separation anxiety
It was well conducted with plenty of information and examples of how to stop the dog barking . Also worked on building up rapport between dog and owner so that dog takes much more notice of instructions. As we have a new kitten - helped to build good relationship with 12 month old cavoodle and 12 week old kitten.

Glen & Maureen dealt with Aggression, Barking, Digging, Hyperactivity, Jumping up, Pulling, Recall, Separation anxiety
I have a young cattle dog who was becoming a real handful out and at home. After the first session with Glen I have a much calmer and more obedient dog who is pleasant to be around. Glen is easy to understand and get along with. He is not judgemental of the mistakes I have been making with my dog and seems committed to helping me learn. I've learnt a lot and look forward to the next session!

we saw a change in our dog Sonny in the first session with Philip. We were a bit sceptical to start with but he responded so well.
Thank you to Philip for your clear and professional teaching
Trainer note from Todd
Thanks Liz! Sonny is a 7 month old male Chocolate Labrador and he was rather full on. Jumping up, not listening, chewing everything and digging holes in the garden. Liz is expecting her first baby too so really needed Sonny to be better behaved before the baby arrives. As she says, Sonny responded very well and we saw instant improvements. Well done Sonny!

It was fantastic! Shaxx can use his doggie door now!!!
Trainer note from Stefanie
Shaxx ( 7 month old Boston Terrier) was toileting indoors as since he was first brought home, he was not able to learn to use the doggy door and was scared of it. Within 2 lessons, we were able to get him to enthusiastically go in and out using the dooggy door. He is now also waling nicely next to his parents and improved his indoor manners, such as not jumping and greeting guests calmly. Well done Shaxx!

Stefanie was fantastic, taking us through the theory and then some real live practice with her really set us up for success. In a short space of time the behavioural issues we had have been addressed, and we have the puppy of our dreams. Thank you so much for your help!
Trainer note from Stefanie
Thanks Cameron! Shadow the fluffy 7 month old Keeshond was super responsive to training and is just such a sook! Well done on his progress and I look forward to his revisit session when he is a year old. Keep up the great work!

First session today with Hugh. Was very impressed. Found him very patient, caring and knowledgeable. His advice was easy to understand. Good demonstrations. A lot was covered today but was not an overload. Think we stopped at a right point. Keen to put what we learnt into practice.
