Bark Busters Reviews and Customer Testimonials

22nd September 2025 - Kelly McClelland

Kelly dealt with Other

Kelly was very thorough and I couldn't believe within 2 mins of her being at my front door she had my dog away and not barking

- J.B, Tingalpa (Testimonial)

Trainer note from Kelly
Thank you for inviting us to come and do your canine assessment - your pup is smart as a whip, and responded well to some small training tips, provided as a part of the temperament assessment for council. We truly wish you both a positive outcome to the situation you're in, thanks again.

22nd September 2025 - Philippa Dakin

Philippa dealt with Barking, Puppy management

Phillipa was extremely professional. She was very calm and had so much knowledge & experience in dogs . We felt at ease the moment she walked thru our door. She took her time to explain everything we would cover in this session . She even had videos which helped us understand the procedures we would use . Freddie responded to Phillipa with heaps of enthusiasm . We found her to be extremely nurturing and full of empathy and compassion for Freddie’s and Mikaylas recent incident . I am confident this is just a stepping stone to use to get Freddie & Mikayla back on daily walks. One of our neighbours stopped me when I was doing the training homework and she had noticed how calm and relaxed Freddie was compared to normal . Of course I told her it was because of our outstanding Trainer Phillipa. Thank you to Kelly also for assisting us with our booking . We feel very grateful for all of you making Freddie’s forever home ( instead of the alternative- we were facing ) . We love our dog and couldn’t think about giving him up after we rescued him from the RSPCA . A million thanks to all at this amazing business .

- C.B, Queanbeyan (Testimonial)

Trainer note from Philippa
Thank you for your review. I am so pleased that we can help Freddie and Mikayla to go forward after being attacked by a large dog in the street as they walked along on a walk. Keep speaking dog and I look forward to supporting you in the future with our Lifetime training guarantee.

19th September 2025 - Emma Reeves

Emma dealt with Chewing, Digging, Hyperactivity, Jumping up, Pulling, Recall, Separation anxiety, Toileting

Willow did her first session with Emma from bark busters on the 16/09/2025. Emma was able to immediately identify behavioural issues with both Willow and myself and her training techniques were immediately effective and easy to follow. In the time since the first session Willows behaviour has dramatically changed in the household and on walks now being very positive experiences and I can’t recommend the amazing work that Emma does enough

- J.F, Rockingham (Testimonial)

Trainer note from Emma
Thanks Josh. Willow is a beautiful Staffy, and with your new found leadership she will be an even more amazing dog!! Keep up your great work.

17th September 2025 - Emma Reeves

Emma dealt with Barking, Digging, Hyperactivity, Jumping up, Pulling, Recall, Separation anxiety

Emma has completely changed our boys for the better! I knew what ever I was doing clearly wasn’t getting through to the boys and she gave some simple instructions and changes and finally my boys are listening to me and I can communicate what I want from them in a way they’ll understand! We have been practising loose leash walking every morning, and then consistently through out the day/evening I have been working on them politely entering inside the house, going through gates and doorways. We also haven’t had an accident of Ripp jumping up on the bench!! We are working on separation anxiety and the boys have taken on to it sooo well!

- M.P, Hillman (Testimonial)

Trainer note from Emma
Thanks Morgan, your two boys really were bullying you, but I'm so happy that you have now taken control & can show them how you want them to behave rather than them making all the decisions. Keep up your great work & I will see you and your two new & improved Labradors soon.

16th September 2025 - Philippa Dakin

Philippa was everything I needed to help me with my two kelpies coming off property to urban life. She didn’t just demonstrate and train them but educate myself for a much greater result and happier dogs

12th September 2025 - Michelle Howell

Michelle dealt with Aggression, Barking, Jumping up, Pulling, Sibling rivalry

So grateful for the guidance in training our special dogs. The patience, kindness, and genuine care shown made such a difference — not only in Choofys and Kokos progress, but also in our confidence as owners. The changes have been incredible, and we now have the tools to continue this journey. A truly positive and rewarding experience! Thank you Michelle

- C.O, ALBANY CREEK (Testimonial)

Trainer note from Michelle
Thank you so much for your beautiful words — it means the world to hear how empowered you feel after our time together. Choofy and Koko are truly special souls, and watching them respond with such trust and enthusiasm was a joy. I’m so proud of the progress you’ve made as a team, and even more proud of the confidence you’ve gained as dedicated, thoughtful owners. Training is as much about strengthening the bond as it is about building skills, and you’ve embraced both with such heart. I’m honoured to be part of your journey and excited for all the positive steps ahead. Keep up the amazing work — you’ve got this!

11th September 2025 - Kelly McClelland

Kelly dealt with Hyperactivity, Jumping up, Pulling, Recall, Toileting

Kelly is amazing! It hasn't been a full week yet and we have already noticed a difference in Luna's behaviour which is a massive relief. We will be keeping on top of our homework so the packing order stays in place. Thank you Kelly!

- D.Y, Ipswich/Brisbane (Testimonial)

Trainer note from Kelly
Whippets are the most underrated breed for a pet! They are absolutely the best, but not when they're marking, pulling on lead, and stealing food from the table and bench! We corrected Luna's counter surfing whilst we were still doing the theory (she responded immediately!), and then focused on her recall, door manners, demand behaviors (well, she is The Queen!), and also door manners. The implementation of some changes surrounding the marking are already showing improvement, and I can't wait for lesson 2! We will consolidate her learning, and work on loose lead walking / focus when distracted, lunging and road manners. Well done all!
