Bark Busters Reviews and Customer Testimonials

8th September 2025 - Laura Burton

Laura dealt with Aggression, Jumping up, Pulling, Separation anxiety, Other

I have owned dogs all my life (over 50 years), and I didn’t think there was much more I could learn—until I met Laura. From our very first session, I was amazed by how much she taught me and how effective her methods were. Our new rescue dog, Tella, came to us with very little training. Laura’s approach was firm yet gentle, and the change in Tella’s behaviour was immediate and noticeable. What impressed me most was how Laura not only helped Tella, but also gave me the confidence and tools to manage the challenges of a large, intelligent dog. Thanks to her guidance, I feel reassured that Tella will go on to have a positive, happy life with us. I cannot recommend Laura highly enough—her knowledge, professionalism, and care have made a world of difference.

Trainer note from Laura
Hi Vireena, Thank you for taking the time to do such a detailed review. It was great to see the improvement in Tella's jumping and walking at the lesson and I'm looking forward to going on this journey with you all. Cheers, Laura

7th September 2025 - Emma Reeves

Emma dealt with Barking, Hyperactivity, Jumping up, Pulling, Separation anxiety

Mikey was already a great puppy, but I particularly struggled to have her attention when outside on walks, and whenever guests came over. Bark Busters gave me great tools, including the collar, which gave me back control. She responds super quickly, and I feel like she’s almost immediately turned into a calmer, happier dog, even just after a few days!

- D.M, Baldivis (Testimonial)

Trainer note from Emma
Thanks Delaine. It was great to meet you & work with you & Mikey. You had already put a huge amount of work into her & she was a great puppy, but now with your new found leadership & guidance you can help her to grow into an AMAZING dog. Keep up your great work & I will see you soon.

7th September 2025 - Glen & Maureen Guelfi

Glen & Maureen dealt with Aggression, Barking, Recall, Other

Glen was spectacular with his training and coaching. We were given a thorough lesson prior to engaging with Torro with much of the lesson focusing on human behaviour and learning to be empathetic with our dogs. The training was far more insightful on our behaviours and implementation provided immediate results with our boy. I highly recommend Bark Busters as we were provided with 1:1 support in our dogs environment, provided ample time to implement strategies while Glen is present and kind mentoring which never places the dog in any harms way. Thanks Glen, Sue and Bark Busters.

- T.A, Perth (Testimonial)

Trainer note from Glen & Maureen
Thank you for your kind words, I am happy that all is going so well.

7th September 2025 - Kelly McClelland

Kelly dealt with Aggression, Barking, Hyperactivity, Jumping up, Puppy management, Recall, Sibling rivalry

Honestly I was VERY sceptical but I was amazed after one meeting. My older dog certainly learnt new tricks and my 7 month old quickly learnt her place in the pack. She has continued to be totally relaxed and at peace finally. Kelly knows her stuff and our whole family is better for it.

- L.F, Victoria Point West 4165 (Testimonial)

Trainer note from Kelly
I am so glad you took a leap of faith! Both of your bulldogs are delicious - we are working with your youngest Aussie Bulldog female, due to her fear reactivity, and attacking her older "brother". Finding out what your family expectations were, what you want from Mildred, and what your parameters were was crucial to tailoring the training to your environment. We worked on her over escalations, door manners, crate training (safety zone), and also discussed how certain ingredients in food can adversely affect a dog's behavior (just like a child!). Small changes, big improvements! A follow up lesson has been done, focusing on Mildred's lunging on lead, and attention on the owner out the front, and she was walking on a loose lead within minutes - she is so keen to be the best girl! Thanks again, and I am looking forward to lesson 3!

5th September 2025 - Michelle Howell

Michelle dealt with Barking, Pulling, Puppy management, Other

We recently had our first training session with Michelle from Bark Busters Brisbane, and I can’t recommend her enough! From the moment she arrived, Michelle made us feel at ease and explained everything clearly. What amazed us most was how quickly our Aussie Shepherd, Barni, responded to the training — we noticed a change straight away on the very first day. The intensive session gave us so many practical tools, and it’s incredible to see Barni adapting so fast. We know we still have more to work on, but with Michelle’s guidance, we feel confident that we’re on the right path. If you’re looking for a trainer who is patient, professional, and gets real results, Michelle is the one! She is our puppy angel ❤️

- W.K, Arana Hills (Testimonial)

Trainer note from Michelle
Thank you so much for your kind words and heartfelt review! It was an absolute pleasure meeting you and working with Barni — what a bright, responsive Aussie Shepherd he is! I’m thrilled to hear you felt at ease during our session and that the training tools made an immediate impact. That first-day transformation is always special, and it speaks volumes about your commitment and Barni’s willingness to learn. Training is a journey, and I’m so glad you feel confident moving forward. With your consistency and Barni’s enthusiasm, I have no doubt you’ll continue to see amazing progress. Thank you for trusting me to guide you both — I’m honoured to be part of your story and proud to be Barni’s “puppy angel

1st September 2025 - Glen & Maureen Guelfi

Glen & Maureen dealt with Aggression, Barking, Chewing, Digging, Hyperactivity, Jumping up, Puppy management, Separation anxiety, Toileting

Testimonial for Bark Busters and Maureen Guelfi Over the years, I’ve had the pleasure of raising many dogs, but none quite like the beautiful and spirited Coco. He's an independent pup with a strong personality and a tendency to "rule the roost." When the peace in my home—my sanctuary—began to feel disrupted, I knew it was time to seek professional help. Bark Busters was my first choice, as I had a positive experience with them in the early 2000s. At that time, we had a German Shepherd named Duke, and a friend of my husband's recommended Bark Busters. Although I wasn’t personally involved in Duke's training, the transformation was remarkable—he became an obedient, well-mannered family companion. Last week, Coco met Maureen Guelfi for the first time, and the change in his behavior has already been incredible. Maureen helped me understand that Coco was confused by my lack of leadership, and she patiently taught me how to take control in a calm and confident way. Thanks to Maureen's guidance, Coco is now so much easier to manage, and the sense of peace in my home has been fully restored. I’m looking forward to our next session and continuing this journey with Maureen and Bark Busters. Sincerely Kim Knott

- K.K, Bayswater WA (Testimonial)

Trainer note from Glen & Maureen
Awww, thank you Kim, and Coco will only continue to flourish under your leadership, Great work.
