Absolutely delighted in callum's training. Ziggy has responded so quickly and understands the commands. This training is an ongoing work in progress and not all ziggys behaviour can be modified in one session but so far it definitely works!!

Kelly dealt with Aggression, Barking, Pulling, Separation anxiety
If you could get a Mary Poppins equivalent for a dog, Kelly is the one! I was so stressed about the sibling rivalry (increased fights and intensity ) between our rescue bull mastiff - nala and american staffie - harley who have been together for a year. I had contacted a different mob and although their tips were useful;I needed someone with a more hands on approach. Right from the greeting at the front door Kelly guided me on how to correct Nalas behaviour. After our session nala is already better behaved . We still have a lot of work to do before letting them share a space; like crate training, general obedience and recall . The advice on their diet was also an eye opener. I cant wait to see the changes, put in the work and build a stringer and more respectful relationship with my dogs . I was besides myself with the thought of having to rehome either of them but with Kelly’s expertise, sense of humour and passion about training - our situation of living in harmony is within reach . I wish i got in touch with bark busters first. Thank you so much Kelly and i cant wait for our next lesson
Trainer note from Kelly
Thank you so much for your kind words! When I arrived at the door, I could literally feel your stress in waves :-( - being able to show you how to control the barking and growling, and empowering you to have confidence in your gorgeous girl, it was so fabulous to watch you relax, and enjoy your dog's company. Your timing was on point, and our gentle methods gained Nala's trust and focus. As a rescue, she is definitely fearful, and she learned so fast - I can't wait to start on her external manners, and also re-integration with her fur-brother. Well done!

Glen & Maureen dealt with Aggression, Chewing, Digging, Hyperactivity, Jumping up, Pulling, Puppy management
My partner and I had an amazing experience with Glen. We have a 8 month old Kelpie that we were struggling to communicate effectively with. He couldn’t understand our demands and wants. After having Glen over, we have seen a significant change in Denzel’s behavior, from being advised about why he was acting the way he was, to helping him walk on the lead (which was a very big issue we were struggling with). Denzel can now walk on the lead - I think that is saying enough! I could not recommend Glen any higher, fantastic experience and we have seen results instantly. Thank you for helping our pup.

Really good clear sound advice. Even though both our dogs are older we have noticed within one week differences in how they are responding to us. Cant wait to see the end results. Thank you

Zali had a fast response to the training. Very impressed.
Trainer note from Kelly
Working breeds are so much fun, but when they are chasing cats and trying to eat the aviary birds, not so much! Zali loved the training, she really enjoyed learning - watching her settle and relax as you gained to control, was wonderful! I am looking forward to lesson #2, where we will focus on improving the cat work, and more external training (lead and road manners) :-)

Glen & Maureen dealt with Chewing, Digging, Hyperactivity, Jumping up, Pulling, Recall, Sibling rivalry
Could not believe it within 10 minutes, Glen had Orley walking like a gentleman on the lead. He no longer hunts the bandicoots. Both boys responded great to the training which has gone from strength to strength since the first visit. Life is now much easier with two well-behaved dogs. Totally recommend Glen and Barkbusters.
Trainer note from Glen & Maureen
Thanks, so much guys, Orley & Tyrone are great boys who will only continue to flourish with your leadership.

Maureen was wonderful with my two, sorting out Obi’s incessant barking and aggression towards strangers in the house. She even helped us with door control, so I can open my door all the way again! The boys seem happier and much calmer.
Trainer note from Glen & Maureen
Am delighted that they are happier & calmer, they are great Dachshunds, and I'm Looking forward to seeing further progress.

Maureen is a great trainer. She taught both of us how to be a pack leader for our Chihuahua. The training session is customised based on the dog issues. For us, it was toileting, separation and lead training. Maureen’s method are effective and practical.
I’m recommending paw parents to check out Bark Buster. Thank you again Maureen and Bark Buster team!

Glen did a training session with Arjun and provided advice to us on how to deal with the issues. It was a very useful session and we learnt a number of strategies on how to deal with the issues. Excellent session.
Trainer note from Glen & Maureen
Golden Retrievers are such beautiful dogs and Arjun is no exception, so pleased he is responding so well.

Zoey is a different dog after the first initial lesson.
It's a pleasaure to see her walking along side us in the park and not pulling and jumping.
We were all very impressed with what was achieved so quickly.
Our son has called Glen the dog whisperer, as he could not believe the instant transformation.
Trainer note from Glen & Maureen
Thanks Guys, I'm super happy she is responding so well.

Kelly dealt with Jumping up, Recall
Our first lesson with Kelly was a real eye opener - for Molly and for us! The amount of informative and authoritative advice given in the first lesson was, in fact a lifetime training experience.
I think woman and dog suffered training overload which we are working through until our next session.
Molly’s behaviour in several areas such as recall, food manners, door manners and general attitude is a marked improvement.
I’m sure that if Molly, Kelly and I keep working together we will have a fully trained, obedient and cooperative family member!
Trainer note from Kelly
Molly is such a wonderful dog! Poodles are so super smart, they turn the tables on us poor humans with ease, LOL, but she certainly showed that she has a willingness to learn. She absolutely adores you both, and I am looking forward to lesson #2, where we will consolidate what was covered in lesson 1, then move to more advanced tailored training for external manners too. Well done!
