Bark Busters Reviews and Customer Testimonials

Kelly made me feel very capable with all of the techniques she showed me. She was extremely welcoming and explained everything very thoroughly!

Training is great for him

I would like to express my gratitude to Tanja and Bark Busters for the incredible training. I've had my Bull Terrier Toddy since he was a baby, and he's an amazing, beautiful dog. The only problem we have is that our neighbours aggravate him intentionally and he has been reported to the council for barking. He's only 15 months old and he responded to the training amazingly! It really worked for his barking issue. The training also helped with his obedience, recall, jumping and pulling. Tanja is such a lovely lady and so proffesional. She took the time to explain every step of the training and I was so impressed with how calm Toddy was, I've never seen him follow instructions like that. I'm so happy with this training and looking forward to applying it daily.

Very professional, excellent knowledge, very good suggestions. By the time Cat left dog was already behaving better.

I have had one session with Laura and I have already had massive success with my anxious and timid dog Lulu. Lulu would bark non-stop and be aggressive towards strangers entering our home, regularly resource guards, as well as being extremely stubborn on walks (her way or the highway). Laura was empathetic towards naughty Lulu in our first home visit, and gave me and my family valuable advice and training techniques. It has not even been a week yet and I have already noticed a massive improvement, she is no longer barking aggressively when someone knocks on our door or hears someone outside, has stopped resource guarding the staircase, AND finally went on a walk with me on her own without pulling or sitting down constantly!! I can’t wait to see how far Lulu goes with the help of Laura, I am feeling optimistic and so very pleased with her training!! 100000% recommend.

Jakob was so helpful and knowledgeable. We were very stressed before Jakob helped us. Now our 8-month-old puppy is calm and listens to us. We are now more relaxed and able to enjoy time with our puppy.

Glen was awesome. We have a 8-month-old Border Collie/7.5% Kelpie, she would not stop barking. I have the Neighbour's complaining. Ranger got involved. I tried boot camp (please don’t make the mistake I made, they actually ruin your dog), online videos and none were any good. Glenn trained us on the dietary of our dog. I think this was a game changer. He showed us how to train Coco, and after 10 minutes of training Coco was very cooperative and tired. I could not believe my eyes. She actually slept most of the day. Now we continue with the training and diet requirement and our dog is lot happier. Not barking like crazy, lot calmer as well. These guys actually care for your dog. It’s the most humane training I had. Cannot recommend anyone else other than these guys. Thank you so much for your help.

3 weeks post our initial lesson with Glen, we’ve noticed a big change in our 2 babies. Adopted from the shelter and already bonded, our 2 dogs were aggressive to other dogs and we had to avoid walking at certain times and always be aware of what was going on in the distance. 3 weeks later, our anxious boy now lays down when he sees another dog out, and we know how to get his attention if he gets too distracted. He’s still learning but much more enjoyable to take out in public. Our confident girl has taken to the lessons like a pro. Knowing exactly what we want of her, and eager to please us. I look forward to the ongoing group lessons and hopefully one day being able to introduce our dogs to other dogs. Even my family have commented on the much more calm behaviours at home.

Kelly was very responsive to our booking. She was very respectful of our time and provided soooo much amazing and relevant information for our boy. We have started using Kelly's tips and have been amazed at the effectiveness. Kelly went above and beyong and provided advice to assist with Bruce's skin issues. Kelly handled Bruce with lots of love.

Roy is already responding to much of the training Michelle has taught us. I’ve already seen a big difference in Roy avoiding many of his undesirable behaviours. The lessons are easy to understand and not taxing on either of us

GLEN was excellent highly recommend him

Gabi 2YO Miniature Poodle has been with the family for only a week and came to us as a rehome. She had come from a family with no men and was quite fearful of the men in our house. Kelly was amazing! She gave us lots of pointers and showed us the techniques to show the dog who the boss was, this is all without treats. That night she slept in the laundry with our other dog (they were in our room to help her integrate) and didn't hear a sound. She now loves the men in the house and the barking is almost non-existent when new people come over. We have set a boundary with the kitchen, the dogs aren't allowed in the area between the island and the oven as they get in under the feet and could potentially create an accident. It works they know. Some lapses in memory, however, 90% of the time they get it right. That includes the old dog, she looks at me confused lots. LOL. The stress levels are down dramatically as the dogs aren't getting in the way. She now loves the Man of the house. WINNING! Now to keep consistent with the reinforcing. Any tips on training the kids & Hubby to put the dishes in the dishwasher? ;-)
