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!

Cat was amazing with Benji and already after 1 lesson he has learnt so much. I too have gained knowledge to help Benji to be his best self.
Trainer note from Catharina
Thank you so much for leaving a review! Benji (15 week old Border Collie) did a amazing job at showing how much a young puppy can learn in a very short (1 and a half hours) time. Stopping mouthing, jumping and play biting, recall, learning to stay on command with distractions, door control, some lead training and stopping reactive chasing to the broom and blower all in one day! Not to mention how well he did with learning not to hassle Harley (older dog) so they can both enjoy their time together :) Awesome job Benji!! Look forward to seeing his progress continuing your training at your next lesson.

After just the initial training, Mydi is a complete new puppy thanks to Cat's expert advice & training tips, looking forward to more of Cat's advice so I can have the perfect "gentleman" fur friend that I need him to be. Thanks Cat, appreciate you taking us on. We highly recommend Cat, she knows her stuff!!
Trainer note from Catharina
Thanks so much Chris, I am so happy you decided to work with me and Bark Busters to training Mydi (19 week old Toy Poodle x Maltese x Shih Tzue), I know you said at the start of your lesson you just wanted him to be a "gentleman" and I think we have him well on his way!! It was great to see him respond to the training techniques I showed you to use so you could stop his jumping and play biting, getting good recall and lead training, addressing his toilet training and importantly his separation anxiety so he can be a happier and calmer boy when he needs to be on his own. I am looking forward to our next lesson :)

I am absolutely blown away with the progress made in just the first session with Cat. After seeing other reviews and you tube videos from dog trainers having such success in just one session and I honestly thought my dog was too far gone for any trainer to make such progress. With an extremely reactive, nervous and aggressive (to visitors) rescue dog we had Cat in our house teaching us how to work with our dog without the dog even bothering about the fact that Cat was in the room. We have made more progress in our first session with Cat than we did with 6 sessions with another trainer.
We can't wait to do our homework daily and for our next session. Thank you Cat, you are amazing!!
Trainer note from Catharina
Thank you for your review Lyn, it means so much to me that I can help you and Skyla (10 month old Staffy x Mastiff). You and your family did an amazing thing in taking her on as a rescue and not giving up on her with her significant behavioural issues and searching until you found they right help for her. Many owners find having a dog that is aggressive to strangers daunting and feel there is no hope. But with Bark Busters proven training methods and using gentle training techniques, Skyla is proof that even some of the most reactive dogs can change (and quickly too!) I look forward to continuing your support and seeing Skyla settle and become more comfortable in herself and relaxed in knowing her humans have got this!!

Steph was fantastic. We used her services 4 years ago with our other dog and wanted to use her again with the second dog. She explains things well and easy to follow her guide. She's lovely to talk to and listens to our concerns. Highly recommend Steph.
Trainer note from Stefanie
Thanks Nicole! It was great seeing and working with you and your family again! Your first pup Monty has grown into such a well mannered adult, as we knew he would! Now Stormi, your second pup, is so different in personality but very much responsive to training. No doubt he will follow in Monty's steps! Please keep up the training and reach out any time you require assistance!

31st August 2024 - Glen & Maureen Guelfi
Highly recommend Glen for large dogs.
Within the first session we saw behavioural changes in our Rottweiler cross. Glen provides lots of valuable information that is very helpful to maintain a calm dog who respects everyone in the house.
We struggled with his mouthing, jumping, barking, walking etiquette and getting onto the furniture.
With Glen’s help we have a very wellbehaved boy. Thank you again.
Trainer note from Glen & Maureen
My Pleasure, I'm so glad all is going well, remember to remain consistent for continued results.

28th August 2024 - Kia Parke
Kia's input was invaluable. the change in Bob was instant. We went from having a puppy who was unable to focus on any task to a puppy who was able to calm down and follow direction. Kia also provided a toilet training plan that incorporates crate training. This has been working really well. I loved the education part of the lessons that taught me the Why of what Bob does. It is this new found knowledge that will build the foundations of a strong and functional relationship with my best friend Bob.
Trainer note from Kia
That's terrific news! I'm so pleased you loved the fantastic results we had with little Bob. He tried so hard, and seeing the happiness you experience just sitting quietly in a chair made our training priceless. I loved helping you all! Thanks for choosing me as your trainer.
