Bark Busters Reviews and Customer Testimonials

Neighbours are impressed. Different dog next day.

Douglas is doing amazing with our training, he already seems a lot calmer and happier, and so do I!

Alan was first class and explained everything clearly and with no rubbish. He clearly demonstrated any exercises and the expected outcome and then made sure we performed the same actions to get the same result. Ongoing support is also excellent, with Alan responding promptly to any questions and queries. I look forward to the continuing relationship with Alan and hope that others use his excellent services to not only resolve their dog issues but also resolve issues that the owner may be doing to cause the behaviour and ultimately end up with a happier family, home and dog with everyone working together.

Glen was thorough and gave great advice that was specific to our dog. Just knowing that we will have ongoing support and access to a weekly training session gives us confidence that his behaviour will be responsive to our discipline.

I would like to thank Megan for her showing me and my Husband Warren for how to help us to get our Lucy to start learning her behaviour problems.Lucy did very well with her first session and is trying so hard now for us. It will take a little time for her to learn but I know I will have a new little dog when she is finished. Thanks again Megan

I cannot thank you enough Cat for your assistance, knowledge and professionalism when it comes to dealing with dogs. Well it's been just over a week since Cat came around to give me a few pointers in the right direction. I've had Hutch for only 6 weeks and remember calling her the day I got him saying "have I bitten off more than I can chew?" In re-homing a 14 month old sheep killing Kelpie into a suburban environment. But boy am I so glad that I did, Hutch didn't have major issues, he's obedient, comes when called but it was more his over exuberance around the house and on our daily walks. But thanks to Cat that's now in hand and he's learning the boundaries when it comes to being under the dinning table and in the kitchen. Luckily he's a really smart boy and learns things quickly. He has also not shown as much of an interest in digging monstrous holes in the lawn. And walking on a lead is now a pleasure as opposed to being dragged all over the place. I work at a vet clinic and through word of mouth have recommended Cat to clients struggling with their dogs, but now have first hand experience and will continue to be an advocate for Cat and Bark Busters South West. Thanks again for the magic you have worked with my boy - now can you do the same for my kids? Just remember no matter how big or how small the issue you may have with your dogs behaviour, you're not alone and there is a solution and training to rectify it.

Ken was very professional in his services - in the first 5 minutes of his arrival he could instantly see what the problems where given his immense experience over the years. He taught us so much about behavioural signs of Romeo in which we did not know. The training methods used were far from what we were taught in dog training school and much more advanced. Given that the training is in such a personal matter it was much more helpful. Ken also followed up and came back to do more training. Romeo has already improved with the training that we have been taught to do and has been much better.

We arranged the training more for us than Donald as he's our first rescue dog and has missed his formative years due to injury. Peter was very experienced & informative when he demonstrated the training techniques we could use with Donald. This was done both practically & using the training manuals he bought with him. We saw an instant improvement in the ways we could get Donald to respond to us using the simple techniques Peter demonstrated. We would definitely recommend Peter for anyone who needs assistance in training their dog. Roll on the second lesson!!

We have taken so much away from the training with Emma. She was so patient with everything and relayed the training techniques in a very clear way. We couldn't recommend Emma enough to other people who may be experiencing any sort of behavioural issue with their dog.

Graeme explained very well how it all works. He took time and was very patient with us the people as well as our dogs. He helped us to think the dog way. We are now on the way to having a stress free relationship with our dogs. Really appreciate his help.

Steph has sucessfully helped us train our excitable 2 year old chocolate labrador so he is able to walk calmly on the lead past other dogs. He no longer pulls or barks so our walks are more enjoyable for everyone. Steph provided us with great advice and variety of techniques to try with Ted and was patient and supportive during our lessons. She was also very warm and caring towards Ted and his older sister Chloe. We would (and already have) highly recommend Steph and Bark Busters to anyone else experiencing similar problems. Thank you Steph!

The training was awesome!! Peter was so helpful and professional and honestly has changed our lives!! Everything is actually so simple but explained so clearly that we now feel like we're in control! Couldn't be happier.
