6th August 2023 - Todd Morris
Todd dealt with Aggression, Jumping up, Pulling, Recall, Separation anxiety
Todd came in not looking to change our whole way of life with the dogs. But to help strengthen our leadership it’s only been a short period since his first visit, but slow consistency with training we have seen changes with listening (obviously not perfect) but Todd has kept it very simple for us over the first 2 weeks.
6th August 2023 - Catharina Jeffery
Catharina dealt with Barking, Jumping up, Pulling, Puppy management, Sibling rivalry, Toileting
Such a difference in just one session. Cat gave us the confidence to iron out these behaviours with her guidance and we have already seen a big change.
Trainer note from Catharina
It was lovely to meet you and Wombat (17 week old Jack Russell x). From the moment we met I could see you had your hands full with his reactive barking and anxiety. It was great to see him transform and relax over the initial lesson and I look forward to seeing your progress at our next lesson and build on what you have learnt!

Emma dealt with Barking, Jumping up, Pulling
Very knowledgable, relatable, listened, took time to work with our 13 yr old son too
Trainer note from Emma
Thanks Lisa, it was great to meet you and your son Ben, with cheeky Chocolate Labrador Milo. During our first session we set about addressing the leadership within the home and started to work on some of Milo's behaviours including barking, jumping, pulling on the lead, on lead reactivity, recall and stealing food. Looking forward to continuing your training at our next session.

Callum dealt with Pulling, Puppy management, Other
Absolutely delighted in callum's training. Ziggy has responded so quickly and understands the commands. This training is an ongoing work in progress and not all ziggys behaviour can be modified in one session but so far it definitely works!!
3rd August 2023 - Kelly McClelland
Kelly dealt with Aggression, Barking, Pulling, Separation anxiety
If you could get a Mary Poppins equivalent for a dog, Kelly is the one! I was so stressed about the sibling rivalry (increased fights and intensity ) between our rescue bull mastiff - nala and american staffie - harley who have been together for a year. I had contacted a different mob and although their tips were useful;I needed someone with a more hands on approach. Right from the greeting at the front door Kelly guided me on how to correct Nalas behaviour. After our session nala is already better behaved . We still have a lot of work to do before letting them share a space; like crate training, general obedience and recall . The advice on their diet was also an eye opener. I cant wait to see the changes, put in the work and build a stringer and more respectful relationship with my dogs . I was besides myself with the thought of having to rehome either of them but with Kelly’s expertise, sense of humour and passion about training - our situation of living in harmony is within reach . I wish i got in touch with bark busters first. Thank you so much Kelly and i cant wait for our next lesson
Trainer note from Kelly
Thank you so much for your kind words! When I arrived at the door, I could literally feel your stress in waves :-( - being able to show you how to control the barking and growling, and empowering you to have confidence in your gorgeous girl, it was so fabulous to watch you relax, and enjoy your dog's company. Your timing was on point, and our gentle methods gained Nala's trust and focus. As a rescue, she is definitely fearful, and she learned so fast - I can't wait to start on her external manners, and also re-integration with her fur-brother. Well done!

2nd August 2023 - Glen & Maureen Guelfi
Glen & Maureen dealt with Aggression, Chewing, Digging, Hyperactivity, Jumping up, Pulling, Puppy management
My partner and I had an amazing experience with Glen. We have a 8 month old Kelpie that we were struggling to communicate effectively with. He couldn’t understand our demands and wants. After having Glen over, we have seen a significant change in Denzel’s behavior, from being advised about why he was acting the way he was, to helping him walk on the lead (which was a very big issue we were struggling with). Denzel can now walk on the lead - I think that is saying enough! I could not recommend Glen any higher, fantastic experience and we have seen results instantly. Thank you for helping our pup.
Trainer note from Glen & Maureen
Over the moon that Kelpie pup Denzel is responding so well, Thanks for your kind words.

Really good clear sound advice. Even though both our dogs are older we have noticed within one week differences in how they are responding to us. Cant wait to see the end results. Thank you

Kelly dealt with Hyperactivity, Jumping up, Pulling, Recall
Zali had a fast response to the training. Very impressed.
Trainer note from Kelly
Working breeds are so much fun, but when they are chasing cats and trying to eat the aviary birds, not so much! Zali loved the training, she really enjoyed learning - watching her settle and relax as you gained to control, was wonderful! I am looking forward to lesson #2, where we will focus on improving the cat work, and more external training (lead and road manners) :-)

Glen & Maureen dealt with Chewing, Digging, Hyperactivity, Jumping up, Pulling, Recall, Sibling rivalry
Could not believe it within 10 minutes, Glen had Orley walking like a gentleman on the lead. He no longer hunts the bandicoots. Both boys responded great to the training which has gone from strength to strength since the first visit. Life is now much easier with two well-behaved dogs. Totally recommend Glen and Barkbusters.
Trainer note from Glen & Maureen
Thanks, so much guys, Orley & Tyrone are great boys who will only continue to flourish with your leadership.

Glen & Maureen dealt with Aggression, Barking, Jumping up, Pulling, Sibling rivalry
Maureen was wonderful with my two, sorting out Obi’s incessant barking and aggression towards strangers in the house. She even helped us with door control, so I can open my door all the way again! The boys seem happier and much calmer.
Trainer note from Glen & Maureen
Am delighted that they are happier & calmer, they are great Dachshunds, and I'm Looking forward to seeing further progress.

Maureen is a great trainer. She taught both of us how to be a pack leader for our Chihuahua. The training session is customised based on the dog issues. For us, it was toileting, separation and lead training. Maureen’s method are effective and practical.
I’m recommending paw parents to check out Bark Buster. Thank you again Maureen and Bark Buster team!
