Ric dealt with Barking, Chewing, Digging, Hyperactivity, Jumping up, Pulling, Puppy management, Recall, Separation anxiety, Toileting
Winston’s training has become significantly easier with Bark Busters influence. His respect and attentiveness increases dramatically with every session outlined in the program with poor behaviours decreasing rapidly. There has been a marked difference both in Winston’s understanding and our own with regards to training/learning principles which allows us to pivot in unrehearsed situations. If you have made the commitment to add a dog to your family, bark busters is a fantastic option to ensure your new family member is obedient, trusted and a positive influence on your life (with lifetime support as well!!!!)

Ric dealt with Hyperactivity, Sibling rivalry, Other
Ric was very calm and relaxed during a very tense time for us. He explained things in a way we could understand, and showed us things to look out for. He has given us tips and tricks to continue and didn’t rush us. He stayed with us for as long as we needed, and answered all of our questions no matter how silly they were. I would highly recommend Ric to everyone!!!!

Hello, Thank you for your wonderful review and for allowing me the opportunity to work with you, your beautiful girl Shadow, and your mum’s handsome boy Saxon. It was truly rewarding to see both dogs meet for the first time and settle in so well together. Introducing dogs can be a nerve-wracking experience, especially when their owners feel a bit anxious. With my help and your confidence and willingness to support them made a real difference in helping them feel at ease. I’m so pleased to have been part of this experience, and I appreciate your trust in me. Warm regards, Ric

Wow what a difference within 5 minutes of meeting Ric our dogs were already responding to Ric’s training. We found his explanations of how the program works along with the practical exercises really helpful and we could see instance results. Looking forward to continuing this training journey with Ric.

Thank you for this lovely review. Your two Collies are just lovely, unfortunately they feel the need to overprotect their space. With our natural methods, we saw a very quick response and two very calm dogs. Remember I'm only a phone call away for any further support but will see you soon in our next scheduled session. Keep up the great work. Kind Regards Ric

Ric dealt with Barking, Hyperactivity, Jumping up, Recall
I had a phone call a few weeks from the power meter man, to let me know that my dog speedy was not jumping on him. The best part is now that my 6 year old son can go outside without fearing that the dog we jump on him,
After only having 2 sessions with bark buster.
Thank you for all your help so far

Ric dealt with Barking, Jumping up
From the very first encounter with our 2yo Cavoodle (an excessively protective, barking one), Ric’s calm manner was impactful. We really appreciated the way Ric approached all our dogs with a warm and friendly manner, when correction occurred it wasn’t fierce, but he established an authority that was quickly respected. We learnt many excellent strategies in this first lesson that has significantly improved our household and is maintaining. We would highly recommend Ric.
Trainer note from Ric
Hello and thank you for your lovely review. You have a beautiful home, and your dogs, Nala, Aria, and Maya, are wonderful. There is a bit of rivalry and disorientation in the pack, but with continued exercises, we’ll see order restored. You both are fantastic to work with, and I'm looking forward to our next session. Remember, I'm just a phone call away if you need any support or information. Kind Regards Ric

Ric was great with Louie, whom on top of everything has minimal interaction with males. By the end of the session had him responding to all the instructions. In fact he responded to my instructions the next day. It took a bit longer but we are getting there. I am seeing a new dog.
Trainer note from Ric
Hello Elca, Louie is just a darling little man, He wasn't quite sure of me at first but as soon as he realised I was there to help and we were focusing on him he opened up. This can be a typical trait of the Chihuahua breed. He is at that age where he is learning to use his voice and the need to defend his home, with the work we have discussed and the exercises to follow he will soon feel more relaxed and comfortable knowing he is safe and doesn't need to defend his pack. looking forward to our next visit. Kind regards Ric

Ric dealt with Barking, Hyperactivity, Recall
As Ric entered we could see the change in approach from the get go. Upon the first lesson on who's in charge we could immediately see a change in Daisy and then her excitement for wanting to learn. It's been a game changer so far and already seeing a happier and more respectful companion towards us. Would recommend 15 times out of 10!

Ric was more than Amazing.
He was excellent with Saxon explained things that I understood.
His mannerism was incredible and I look forward to our next lesson.

Hello Cathy Thank you for this lovely review, Very much appreciated. I thoroughly enjoyed our session and I look forward to our next session. Saxon did very well, he is such a warm soul and he picked up things very quickly, but that's because you look after him so well. Thank you again. Kind Regards Ric

Ric was extremely professional, friendly and effective. He familiarised himself with Suki's environment and quickly provided simple and meaningful suggestions to rectify a range of Suki's less desirable behaviours. I am confident that with Ric's patient and clear guidance, I will be able to train my cavoodle to be an obedient, happy and more relaxed member of the household.
Trainer note from Ric
Hello Jenny, Suki is a darling girl, with a little structure she will become even better. Thank you for allowing me to help with your situation and thank you for choosing Bark Busters. Suki was very responsive and she will pick it up very quickly I'm sure of it. I am only a phone call away if and when you need anything, see you in a couple weeks. Thanks you again for this lovely review . Kind Regards Ric

We are very happy with what Ric achieved with our dog. We had a very stubborn dog who thought they were the boss of the house and didn't listen to what there told, by the end of our first lesson it was like we had a new dog. I was amazed how fast we could see a change in our dog.
Definitely recommend Bark Busters!
