Bark Busters Reviews and Customer Testimonials

Ton Ton is 12 and we recently gotten a puppy, Garlic. Within 6 weeks, the house was in chaos. Like most of the owners giving their reviews, we were at our wit's end. Bark Busters was our last resort. Our main problem was Garlic's hyperactivity which annoys Ton Ton and it always resulted in them fighting, barking and creating a major ruckus. Our neighbours were complaining about the noise. Garlic's puppy school trainer told us to separate them while at work which I felt is not the solution as it doesn't get to the root of the problem. It also means that we're coming home to pee puddles from the dog that's left indoors. Within minutes of Glen's arrival, he had Garlic calmly lying down on the floor. Glen also showed us several things we can do to communicate to the dogs that we, the humans are the alphas. He also showed us how to deal with the chewing and digging which I have yet to try as Garlic is already behaving himself. That same night, someone knocked on our door and neither of the dogs rushed up to bark. They continued lying there as if nothing happened. All that achieved in the 2 hours that Glen was here. I highly recommend Bark Busters. I wished I had gone on the program straight away when it was evident that Garlic is going to be hard work. It would have prevented all the stress and arguments.

We have now had 3 different dog trainers for our naughty pooch and nothing has worked until we met Ken! Cooper has separation anxiety and does not go well when we leave the house. He barks constantly and gets aggressive towards other dogs and people that pass. All we have wanted is to be able to take cooper on walks with us and take him to cafes and now we can thanks to Ken! It has only been 2 lessons with Ken and already it feels like we have a new dog! Ken has equipped us with all the tools to train cooper and we are confident in the results already! We even took cooper to a restaurant with us last night. Ken is so patient with us, he has tailored all the training to us and how we would like cooper to behave. He has checked in with us constantly and has been a huge support. Ken has been great in reassuring us he is always there to contact if we have any questions!

Excellent service - our rescue dog, Kingsley is an Irish wolfhound who we needed to be responsive due to his size - he also had a lot of anxiety also because of his up bringing before we fostered him. Stef helped us learn ways to talk to him and manage his anxiety so now he responds to us very well, he doesn't jump at the door or bark for attention anymore and is currently learning how to socialise with other dogs. Really great service that moves at the pace you want it to so you don't feel rushed if you feel your dog isn't ready for interactions or learning.

Ken was very thorough and worked well with the dogs. He has given alot of insight at dogs behaviour. I have been thought some great training exercises to help my dogs especially with their barking.

Allan gives clear, simple and effective techniques to help us manage our puppy's destructive and impulsive behaviour. Handy to know we can email or call him anytime for help.

We have seen an instant improvement in our two dogs Arlo, a 2.5 year old staffy x whippet and Leela, a 1.5 year old kelpie x dachshund. Which has also been acknowledged by our friends also. The training is easy to understand and implement, putting us back in control and at the top of the pecking order. We addressed jumping, barking, anxiety, recall, walking on the lead and more in our initial session. Plus we now know m that taking control of these will also lead to less destruction in our home long term and happier, easy going dogs that we can take out in public without concern. Emma is thorough, understanding and non-judgemental. We didn’t feel stupid asking questions or embarrassed to share our concerns with our dogs. I’m looking forward to continuing working with Emma to constantly develop our skills and knowledge. Most of all, I’m looking forward to having two well behaved dogs!

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 too aggressive for me to maintain at home. Looking forward to Tikaani's progress and having a better in home dynamic for my pooches!

I'm very pleases with the training that I and Monty have received so far. Even now, i can already see a bit of a change in Monty.

Great service, fixed the problem with my 11 month old female German shepherd.stopped her from jumping up on me, from barking all hours of the night with no medication or silly expensive barking collars.

Big changes in just one lesson, I can already see the difference

Ken is a fantastic trainer! We wanted our pup to become a well behaved dog and were confused on whether to go along with puppy school or home training. We are so happy with going along with home training and it just makes it even better having Ken as Bella's life-time trainer! We love how Ken has many different techniques on how we can train our dog in our home environment and are so thankful that we have a trainer who takes the time out to ensure our pup is doing well :)

Ken was absolutely amazing. Within 5 minutes of meeting my dog, ghost, I already saw a change pretty much immediately. All of Ken's methods were very effective and helpful. Definitely looking forward to more lessons. 10/10 would recommend Ken at bark busters his service is very professional and outstanding. Thanks Ken.
