Bark Busters Reviews and Customer Testimonials

Kelly came out to help us with Winston’s behavioural issues, separation anxiety, pulling and lead issues. We have already noticed such a massive difference in Winston’s attitude towards us and he is LOVING learning new techniques and better behaviour. Can’t believe how quickly we have seen a change! Can’t wait to work on more of his issues outdoors in our next session. Thanks so much Kelly!

Tanja was extremely patient, both with me and my 3 year old maltelier, and taught me how to be the leader, in a way that works. It was the second time she came, which is great under the lifetime guarantee at Barkbusters. The first time I forgot something important, that tells my dog they are free of the command, and so I lost the over time and I realised that refreshers are probably just a standard part of having a good relationship with your dog. They really do think differently than humans, and one little thing that you forget in the sequence of relationships habits with your dog can set you back. Most importantly my dog stopped barking this time for good, and it had nothing with telling her to stop barking once and for al! It had everything to do with the relationship habits, and nothing to do with telling my dog to be quiet or punish her when she barks. The teachings are so effective from Tanja and Todd and the team, both who came out under the lifetime package were great, because they focus on good communication between dog and owner. And Tanja even showed me how to apply the same concept to my cat, which worked! Two For one!

Philippa is amazing! She understood our concerns and explained, in plain English, the reasons why and how to deal with them. She is always available for questions and advice. Her techniques and expertise are valuable and truly work. We're still very early in our training but we are seeing signs of improvement! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her and Bark Busters Home Training.

An amazing start to Fia's training. I couldn't believe we had results so quickly. And Phillipa is lovely.

Had the amazing Michaela come to help with my dog’s barking issues. She was very clear and direct. I have already seen a huge improvement with Bloss’s temperament!

Laura was friendly, enthusiastic and very knowledgeable. Laura explained everything clearly and was very patient with Tilly… and me. I would highly recommend Laura to anyone seeking help with their pets. Thank you Laura and am looking forward to our next session. End

Tanja was excellent and we saw results after the first lesson. The knowledge she has about dogs is exceptional! She took time to explain each instruction and demonstrate as many times as needed. The whole experience from her advice given to putting it into practice exceeded my expectations. We were sent a comprehensive summary and clear explanation of further training activities. We would recommend Tanja to anyone and are looking forward to working with her some more. Worth the money, our dog is transformed!

I cant begin to tell you how amazing Tanja & Bark Busters were for our family. Tanja provided me with amazing tools to help our situation which brought comfort and confidence to both myself and Pup. I am sure our story isnt uncommon - a really awful do hating neighbour provoking our dog to bark, then lodging complaints with council hoping to have our dog deemed a nuisance and either removed permanently or euthanized. They even told police they wouldn't stop as they hated our dog and wanted it gone! After our first visit from Tanja, I have useful tools that are working right from the start. In addition the fact that its a lifetime 'warranty' (pups lifetime of course) that they will come back and help if we need them too is AMAZING and was a no brainer! they're worth every cent! Thanks again Tanja

Great first session. Very motivating for the family. A lot of challenges coming through with Willow but Marli is responding well.

My wife and I are so grateful to Philippa for the instant calming effect she had on our puppy, Charlotte, who seemed almost out of control at times. After only the first lesson we are much better able to communicate with our puppy and are well on our way to correcting so many of her bad behaviours.

This dog training has been nothing short of amazing. The change in my 2.5 year old cavoodle Sunny was almost instantaneous. I’ve had many 2 previous trainers but nothing has worked as well as Bark Busters. Before training he was driving me nuts. He was very demanding, barking for hours if put into his crate at night, barking at me whilst I was cooking, jumping up on visitors, barking at dogs on the TV and noises from outside. After the first session he slept soundly in his crate for the first time in months and was very relaxed and well behaved. The training concepts and exercises are simple, intuitive and very easy to follow and stick to. He now crawls up into my lap for cuddles and is much more loving. Sunny and I are both much less stressed because I’m not constantly telling him off. Couldn’t be happier! Well worth the investment for the lifetime support.

Oscar has shown improvement in his behavior even after such a short time. He is quieter and more obedient. Oscar is not perfect but is definitely improving in his behavior.
