Bark Busters Reviews and Customer Testimonials
26th November 2018 - Stefanie Budiman
Stefanie dealt with Chewing, Digging, Jumping up, Pulling, Recall
Our training session with Stef was very long and challenging at times but we learnt a great deal of new and relevant information. The initial and the follow up session set us in the right direction and we are now able to apply the learning tools to almost any situation. Clementine is a giant schnauzer and she is still the 'puppy' phase at 1.3 yrs old. Clem is smart and cheeky and still challenges our patience everyday. Stef was a fantastic trainer and made everyone look very easy, she is like the 'dog whisperer'. Thanx Stef
Trainer note from Stefanie
Thanks Jenaya! It was such a pleasure to help you guys with sweet Clementine. She's doing extremely well, also taking into consideration that she's still a giant puppy. You all did very well in following through with the techniques and it is great to see Clem's progress in her indoor manners, general focus and walking! Well done!

Phil was excellent, the training methodology makes sense and works. We saw improvement from the start.
Trainer note from Todd
Yes we did! Portia is a 5 year old German Shepherd who suffers severe anxiety. She barks at every little noise and doesn't come when called. Her first lesson went brilliantly and her humans commented they had never seen her come when called so well. She also didn't pull on the lead for the first time! Well done Portia!

Emma dealt with Aggression, Barking, Jumping up, Pulling, Recall, Other
Emma was great & informative.
I was nervous just with Dex's issues.
Trainer note from Emma
Dexter the 10 month old Corgi x Kelpie x Mastiff, only joined his family about a week ago. His family called Bark Busters for help after he was aggressive towards the dad, Dexter actually bit him a few times. Along with the aggression Dexter was also causing trouble with barking, jumping, pulling on the lead, not listening to his owners, not always coming when called and digging. His family did a great job during their first speak dog session and we saw a huge turn around in Dexter's behaviour. They still have work to do, but with their continued training Dexter will become a calm & relaxed young dog. Keep up the great works guys & I will be back to see you soon.

21st November 2018 - Philippa Dakin
Philippa dealt with Aggression, Jumping up, Pulling, Recall
I thoroughly enjoyed the training for Ralph with Philippa and found the methods gentle and easy on Ralph. The process was very well explained and the steps reinforced the learning. It was essential I took control of Ralph as he is quite large. Ralph is progressing well and I feel much more confident guiding his movements. Philippa understands the interaction with animals and is a really lovely and professional trainer of handler and dog.
Trainer note from Philippa
Great work by both! Well done and keep on enjoying the journey.

Peter dealt with Hyperactivity, Jumping up, Pulling, Recall, Toileting, Other
The training with Peter was fantastic. I was a bit apprehensive at first but he made us feel very comfortable. Harley also took to Peter very quickly and we've noticed results already. Not to mention Peter booking in for a follow up in a month to ensure our training is still going strong!
Thanks again Peter! Until next time!
Trainer note from Peter
Thank you Joseph, Harley is a very intelligent German shepherd. She is only young but very smart. She responded to the Bark Busters training and Joseph immediately. We stopped her jumping , running inside through the door, running away and recall all in 2 hrs . Looking forward to our follow ups to help Harley and You to learn more thanks again

Philippa dealt with Barking, Chewing, Jumping up, Pulling, Recall, Sibling rivalry, Toileting, Other
I am so amazed by the service provided by Philippa and the instant effects it has had on my puppy Lenny. Philippa has such a warm and friendly nature about her that made me feel so comfortable and confident in Lenny's training. Even after the FIRST session with Philippa I could see changes! Not only did Philippa praise Lenny throughout the session but she also made me feel great about taking control and learning myself. Well worth the money spent!
Trainer note from Philippa
Well done to you both. It was great to see the immediate progress. I'm looking forward to our next lesson!

18th November 2018 - Stefanie Budiman
Stefanie dealt with Jumping up, Pulling, Puppy management, Recall
Worth every penny. We have an 8 month old labrador, Lily, who sometimes proves to be a bit of a handful and once she started going through her adolescent phase we decided we needed some help. We have Lily enrolled in obedience training but it just wasn't the one on one attention and behavioral advice that we needed so we gave Bark Busters a go and we were not disappointed. Within 24 hours of our first lesson with Stef we already noticed changes and 4 weeks on we have a completely different dog that has completely settled down and is much happier. Stef has been fantastic at explaining things clearly and answering all of our questions. I highly recommend Bark Busters and Stef and can't thank Stef enough for all of her help!
Trainer note from Stefanie
Thank you Kat! Lily was such a pleasure to train and such a sweetheart! I am very pleased with how you both kept up with her training! Her progress is very obvious and even her obedience instructor noticed the difference! Awesome work and keep it up!

Emma dealt with Barking, Jumping up, Pulling, Recall, Separation anxiety, Sibling rivalry
Great service and worth the initial investment. I really appreciate Emma's approach to dog training and feel comfortable implementing it. I have previously worked with a trainer who's approach whilst effective was to aggressive for me to maintain at home.
Looking forward to Tikaani's progress and having a better in home dynamic for my pooches!
Trainer note from Emma
Tikaani is an 18 month old Malamute who was barking, pulling on the lead, being pushy around the front door, didn't always get on with his sister, and was dog reactive. His mum did a great job during our first session and we saw improvements in Tikaani's behaviour straight away. Keep up the great work.

Excellent and very patient trainer.
Trainer note from Todd
Shelley is a 7 year old Maltese X Chihuahua female who was getting aggressive with her owner and didn't come when called. She also had some toilet accidents inside. Pulling on the lead rounded off her issues. She walked today without pulling for the first time and showed great responses. Her owner was very happy. So was Shelley herself as she could relax more as mum took the leadership. Well done Shelley and Anna. â¤ï¸â¤ï¸â¤ï¸

Kia dealt with Barking, Hyperactivity, Jumping up, Recall
Kia was absolutely amazing, she was quick to respond after our call for help and got straight to work our Maremma, Kody was very happy to comply with the commands and instruction given and learnt quickly the do's and don'ts of the program and within a few hours he seems calmer and more relaxed with other external noises , cant wait to continue our training with our boy to further enrich our lives together, thank you Kia and Bark Busters
14th November 2018 - Ken Tran
Ken dealt with Barking, Jumping up
Originally when Ken first came out the dogs were a lot younger. The training was fantastic and we thought we had understood everything. However a year on and we found that we needed Ken's help again. Ken went through the training again but gave us more strategies to control the dogs especially when we have visitors. He explained how we need to be in control and not the dogs controlling us.
