Bark Busters Reviews and Customer Testimonials

Philippa was an excellent support and teacher for Kai and I. She has a professional and kind manner and is really passionate about dogs and training. Her love of animals is really clear and she backs this up with knowledge and confidence. Just what we needed. Kai is a rescue dog with some anxious and skittish behaviours that I wasnt sure how to handle and Philippa was very clear and has put us on a great path. With Philippa's help, Kai walks really well on a lead now, and has her own bed (before she really 'owned' the couch) which she now understands is hers. We have a bit of a long road ahead, but I am so grateful for Philippa's help and guidance.

I highly recommend booking a consult with Ken for in home training! Just unbelievable his training method. He gives you step by step process on building a relationship/trust with your dog rather than merely obedience. Very knowledgable and passionate. We are raising a puppy and can already see such a big difference after 2 sessions! He helped us with issues such as digging/recall/jumping/pulling on lead....our puppy has become so much more calm and relaxed. thankyou Ken

Bark Busters have been wonderful. We missed out on early puppy training due to COVID19 restrictions. Bailey is a playful, energetic kelpie cross/Hunterway. He is now 4mths old and we were wanting to start training to address some jumping and pulling on lead issues. We have only had 2 training sessions so far, but we already have Bailey walking on a loose lead with good control & his jumping up has settled down. Bailey is also a ‘car chaser’, which is our biggest issue and we are hoping that this will settle down with the Bark Buster training schedule we are following. We look forward to the Informal training group classes starting up, so Bailey can socialise with other dogs and have some fun! We have found the training enjoyable and effective and we look forward to watching Bailey grow and learn, Thanks Maureen.

After just one lesson we could see great improvement! Can't thank Ken enough! Highly recommend!

Philippa was very informative, helpful & professional. Explained everything clearly, and gave us lots of useful information & tips to assist us in the training of our dogs. Philippa was courteous, polite and patient, with us and our dogs.

Maureen Guelfi came to see us & our border collie pup, Kaiya & explained so much! I’ve never had a dog & I needed a lot of help knowing how to have my little girl part of our large family. Kaiya is responding really well to the training & I’m no longer anxious having a new family member in the house.

Found Glen was very good, helpful and in the first training saw a difference in my dog Rocky.

We had an amazing session with Todd and Sylvia. All our issues were addressed within the hour, two weeks later Angus is sleeping in his kennel and the barking has stopped. Thank you Todd and Silvia for your generous time and teaching us the techniques to improve his behavior.

Michelle has been so professional and made us feel valued as customers. We are already seeing results with our dogs and the explanation of their behaviours has helped us to understand them better. Michelle is a pleasure to work with.

Our 16 month old kelpie Archie constantly barked at the vacuum cleaner (and any other appliance that makes a noise), at us when we left the house, as people walked past on the street, and many other undesired behaviours that left us frustrated and at a loss as to what to do. After the first lesson with Peter we saw a huge change in Archie in terms of his behaviours. We can see that there has been a shift, and Archie is now seeing us as the leaders. Peter taught us how to communicate with Archie in a way that he is responsive to. Peter is clearly very gifted and experienced in training dog owners. We had tried to research online for months without much success with our dog, but having personal feedback from an expert made all the difference. We have only had two sessions with Peter and we are excited to see more changes to come. We are so glad that we spent the money, which allows us to have a better and less stressful life with our dog. Thank you so much Peter!

Found Philippa very positive and learnt so much in my first session

Micaela and Callum are very passionate and great to work with. My dog has become a lot easier to work with. Now I have a lot more confidence with my dog. Micaela and Callum are so caring towards my dog which gave me lots of confidence and trust. Highly recommend
