Bark Busters Reviews and Customer Testimonials

Catharina is a marvelous trainer. Sometimes Bolt cries when she leaves.

I was having troubles with my 10 month old male American Staffy. He was being so naughty. There was so many issues I was worried I would never get him under control. The main issues were: Pulling on the lead, barking at neighbours, barging past me to get out the door, jumping up on the back door, chewing wires, destroying everything, ripping up his blankets, pulling down the washing, being hyperactive in general, digging holes in the yard, jumping up on our bed at night, chasing the cat, extreme over excitement when seeing another dog and going crazy barking aggressively whenever someone came over to my house. In about 1 month, most of these issues were resolved. All of the problems I was having had very simple solutions that were easy to implement and follow. The training I had to do with Koda only took me about 30 minutes each day and he really enjoyed spending that time with me. He would be sitting there patiently waiting in the morning for me to get up so he could go and do his training. He is so well behaved now, I'm so glad I called BarkBusters to help, it was the best thing I ever did.

Our Dog has already had training 2 years ago. We asked Brian to come around and help clear up a few issues. He had an immediate effect on Sophie with his gentle but firm approach. We did a few exercises inside the house and when I have taken her for a walk in the local park she is much better. We were very impressed with Brian and look forward to seeing him again this coming Sunday

We really enjoyed our training with Megan. She was very informative and firm but at the same time a lot of fun. She was also very patient and spent a lot of time making sure we understood her advice. Our dogs are like completely new dogs already and it has only been 3 days! We would definitely recommend her to others.

Fantastic service, easy to learn, really helped with our young children.

Catharina is very good at explaining how the dogs think, and how to communicate with them, and is very patient and gives great encouragement and aftercare. The training isn't quite finished yet, but Bolt is getting there and will continue to improve.

Wendy & I at first found that Barkbusters way of training very unique from other dog training centres we have tried & at this stage 2 Weeks into our dogs training we have noticed a very big change in their behaviour, its all for the better. They have become a lot quieter & look forward to their training each day.

Very Impressed !!! We saw huge improvement in Jets behavour even before Philip left that day. We really enjoyed learning how to train our little fellow in such a kind and confident way. Phillip showed great patience with us and was more than happy to answer all of our questions. We are really looking forward to our journey towards a better mannered pet who doesn't bark at everything that moves. We look at it as a great investment into a more relaxed household. Thank you Philip we are thrilled to bits already,

my problems were that bella use to be jumpy and snarl at other dogs when we went walking i have another dog called mookie who is more submissive and bella would be jealous if i paid attention to mookie i am to soft with her and peter showed me how to show her i am the top dog and to also let her be a dog she is a lot calmer and i love walking them both together now

We didn't know what to expect but it was our last ditch effort to try and fix the behavioural issues we were experiencing with Buddy our 9month old American Staffy X from nipping my children, jumping up on them and visitors, chewing or should I say destroying everything and pulling on the lead, something had to change before my husband had an anuerism and the neighbours call in a noise complaint from the kids squealing and me yelling at Buddy! The thought of outlaying on a lesson was cringeworthy but we were desperate and a friend recommended Barkbusters so we bit the bullet and called Philip Comans........Let me just say that after the first lesson, we have a much improved Buddy! So glad we called them. Philip guides you through the system so that it's easy to understand, teaching you some simple but effective techniques to use to take back leadership. I'm excited now and just waiting for Buddy to do something naughty so I can correct him, I had a visitor over and he didn't even jump on them, they were amazed at the difference already, so with continuing the simple exercise techniques that Philip taught us we are looking forward to a more calmer interaction with our Buddy, thx Philip.

Very pleased with the way they train. Just the way I prefer, with kindness. I love the idea of training sessions without treats. Been to other training sessions without success. Saw big change on day one. Wish I called sooner.

Philip was brilliant. Very patient, caring and above all HELPFUL. Ewan was a highly anxious, stressful boy. Barking, chewing everything and totally disobedient. Our life and Ewan's is completely different. We implemented all suggestions from Philip, including providing a smaller space for Ewan, diet and the daily exercises. What a massive difference it has made. Our neighbours are happy and not complaining about Ewan's barking. I would highly recommend Philip and bark busters to anyone. I just wish we had not waited for so long. Huge thanks
