Bark Busters Reviews and Customer Testimonials
8th December 2025 - Jakob Mandalinic
Jakob dealt with Barking
Calvin used to bark non-stop if we were in the pool and at some other times as well. After one training session with Jakob, Calvin no longer barks when we are in the pool or very much at the creatures in the bush at night. Jakob was very knowledgeable, friendly, polite and professional. I have to admit I was sceptical that anything would make a difference. However, I am extremely impressed and very, very thankful to Jakob for helping us to help Calvin be less anxious. I cannot recommend Barkbusters highly enough.

Thank you so much Laura for your amazing work and support! Your patience, expertise, and genuine care have made such a positive difference in Oscar’s behaviour and confidence.

6th December 2025 - Ric Kennedy
We were absolutely blown away with Ric’s knowledge and approach to the boys. We first contacted Ric to seek help with getting our dogs be able to leave the cat alone and to share living spaces. After the first session, we were able to see how effective this training will be! We’re very excited to continue the training and see the changes with the dogs.
Trainer note from Ric
Hello, Thank you for your review, those two boys are just lovely dogs. Their games are just a bit full on, continue with the exercises and your progress will grow. Remember until our next session if you need anything, I'm only a phone call away, Looking forward to our next session see you soon.

3rd December 2025 - Kelly McClelland
Kelly dealt with Barking, Jumping up, Pulling, Recall, Separation anxiety, Toileting
Kelly was very patient with us and incredibly informed.
Trainer note from Kelly
I absolutely enjoyed working with you both, and Abby is the most delightful Bull Arab x Staffy - she was experiencing control issues with other dogs, dog reactivity, pulling, jumping up and door manners. Lesson 1 and 2 were all about these issues, and also the small changes that have been made to make your lives easier, and make Abby happy. Consistency is key, and you have both done an amazing job with her - as a young dog, we also cover any new issues that pop up, so we're always here to support!

1st December 2025 - Todd Morris
Kye & Todd dealt with Aggression, Sibling rivalry
I was very much impressed with Kye from Bark Busters. I learned so much in our initial lesson and can already see a difference in behaviour after using the tools and advice received in our lesson. We were dealing with aggression and sibling rivalry issues as well as just general obedience and since learning from Kye, the dogs are starting to behave so much better. We are looking forward to working more with Kye and highly recommend his services.
25th November 2025 - Glen & Maureen Guelfi
Glen & Maureen dealt with Barking, Chewing, Digging, Hyperactivity, Jumping up, Separation anxiety, Other
Our dog has done a complete 360.
From having to spend all day outside with him due to anxiety/separation issues, to being able to leave him alone is a miracle.
The constant hand and feet biting are in the past, the pushing to try and get in the house are also gone. To put it in plain English he's a completely new dog.
Glen was patient with him and you could see he loves dogs as much as the owners do.
Even had my neighbour ask how it went with Bark Busters I had absolutely no hesitation in recommending Glen to them or anyone else for that matter.
So if you need extra help with your four legged family member please give Glen from Bark Busters a call.
Trainer note from Glen & Maureen
That's wonderful Jeanette, I'm delighted he is doing so well. Thank you.

Glen & Maureen dealt with Aggression, Barking, Hyperactivity, Jumping up, Pulling, Recall, Sibling rivalry
This experience has changed our lives. I put off getting a dog trainer for years (7 years to be exact) because I didn't think it would work, I knew it was going to be expensive, and we don't have hours of time to be doing homework with our dogs. Eventually, the situation got to the point where we couldn't delay it any longer for the safety of everyone. We are so glad we found Glen. I can honestly say, we now have our house back. I feel that my children are safe around our dogs. We are finally the bosses of the house again. And yes - our dogs still love us and are not scared of us. In fact, the training has made our relationship better because we are not all so stressed out anymore! The best thing we have done for our dog.
Trainer note from Glen & Maureen
Amazing Laura, I'm so glad things have improved, keep up the great work.

Kelly dealt with Aggression, Barking, Puppy management
Thank you for your time and support with the training. I truly appreciate your effort and expertise. You are very friendly, patient, and approachable, which makes the training experience comfortable and enjoyable for both us and the puppy.
Trainer note from Kelly
Thank you so much for inviting Bark Busters in to assist with your gorgeous Bichon Frise! Having a new puppy can be overwhelming, especially for a first time owner! I have enjoyed meeting your family, and showing you how to manage / control basics such as toilet training, lead training, recall, jumping up, mouthing / biting, and door manners. We moved onto more advanced lead work at lesson 2, and touched back onto the programming exercises, to ensure correctness - great job! I am looking forward to lesson 3, and to continuing with our Lifetime Support Guarantee - such a sweet pup!

Glen & Maureen dealt with Jumping up, Pulling
Glen was excellent dog responded well and gave me a better understanding on lead training Dougie is good at waking on the lead in the house and back yard but when he went to the park his old habits started again long way to go I guess but overall happy way it is going so far
Trainer note from Glen & Maureen
Thanks Jim.

Seeing positive results with Nami after just one lesson. Thanks, Kath. Nami's human still has a bit of work to do mastering her Bahhh, though
