Bark Busters Reviews and Customer Testimonials

Within seconds of entering our home Glen had calmed our two Fox Terriors. They stopped barking, listened and remained calm and attentive throughout his visit and even when he left. For three years we have struggled with this issue and Glen was also able to provide us with the confidence to stand our boys near each other as previously when they were in the same proximity they would fight. An absolutely unbelievable transformation, and as a family have been able to continue these techniques thanks to Glen's easy instruction and calming guidance. The following morning walk has been a pleasure and it's great to be able to enjoy my boys again. Thanks Glen, you are amazing!

Glen was very professional. Had immediate results from the training.

Cat was amazing. Our first session was just so informative and really helped me to understand my little miniature schnauzer, Rumi, so much more. I think the key is consistency and doing the daily training that Cat ran through with us every day. My main issue with Rumi was barking. With the techniques Cat has taught us I have already seen a real improvement in Rumi. Lead walking is something that will be ongoing and need constant work but I know we will get there. Cat is kind, caring, gentle and is a great communicator. The information was clear and easy to understand. The ongoing support is fantastic and a great comfort to me. I believe it is money really well spent and the work and time you put into your pet will result in a beautiful adult dog. Thanks Cat, Lisa

Anyone who is considering bringing a puppy into their home needs Kelly in their life! We recently welcomed a beautiful little Cavalier King Charles puppy named Radar. Kelly has helped us from choosing the right breed for our family’s needs, setting up crate training, toilet training, setting up a routine, instilling good doggy manners and has even provided us with information and product recommendations about food, flea and worming, vaccination, grooming and toys to keep our pup happy. This woman is a fountain of knowledge! I would especially recommend Kelly for people with young children as she was great at educating our kids in dog safety as well as how to care, love and play with our new pup. In the two weeks between getting Radar and our first appointment with Kelly, I was feeling overwhelmed but after one session, she helped us to figure out where Radar fits into our family life and routine and now Radar knows his place in our pack too. Radar is already so well-mannered and well-trained, he has slotted into our family so well and is a pleasure to be around. I have no doubt that we couldn’t have done it without Kelly. Thankyou!

Absolutely amazing!!! Instantly had more attentive dogs but they haven't lost their spark. Glen was great with them, and us.

we cannot recommend Peter from Barkbusters enough. He’s a miracle worker. Chase is a Labrador x Kelpie who we rescued 3 months ago. He is such a lovely dog but we had major issues with him when we’re out walking. He would pull so much on the lead, to the point of almost pulling us over and it was almost impossible to walk past cars, bicycles, other dogs or people without him going crazy. This made it very stressful and we began dreading taking him for a walk every day. We read reviews about Peter online and thought we would give it a try. We did our sessions via zoom due to restrictions but this did affect the training in any way. We were absolutely amazed the difference in just a couple of hours. We learnt how to effectively talk to Chase in a way that he understood. Chase was listening more in the house and then walking so nicely on his lead in the garden. The next challenge was walking on the street with Chase. We took it slowly, doing plenty of training in the garden and we are now at the point where he is walking nicely down the street and is becoming a lot less distracted by things passing by. We have only been doing the training for 3 weeks and Chase is like a completely different dog when out on his lead. We can not thank Peter enough. We can now go out as a family and not worry about being dragged down the street.

Wow, Glen is amazing! Our baby Jet has aggression issues being a rescue and we had no idea how to help him. Glen came in and in 1 session changed everything for us. There are not enough words to explain how thankful we are we contacted Bark Busters and they sent Glen. He is amazing with Jet and has given us the tools to communicate with Jet. Thank you Glen and the team at Bark Busters!

Glen was a great help and lots of good advice.

Philippa was an excellent support and teacher for Kai and I. She has a professional and kind manner and is really passionate about dogs and training. Her love of animals is really clear and she backs this up with knowledge and confidence. Just what we needed. Kai is a rescue dog with some anxious and skittish behaviours that I wasnt sure how to handle and Philippa was very clear and has put us on a great path. With Philippa's help, Kai walks really well on a lead now, and has her own bed (before she really 'owned' the couch) which she now understands is hers. We have a bit of a long road ahead, but I am so grateful for Philippa's help and guidance.

I highly recommend booking a consult with Ken for in home training! Just unbelievable his training method. He gives you step by step process on building a relationship/trust with your dog rather than merely obedience. Very knowledgable and passionate. We are raising a puppy and can already see such a big difference after 2 sessions! He helped us with issues such as digging/recall/jumping/pulling on lead....our puppy has become so much more calm and relaxed. thankyou Ken

Bark Busters have been wonderful. We missed out on early puppy training due to COVID19 restrictions. Bailey is a playful, energetic kelpie cross/Hunterway. He is now 4mths old and we were wanting to start training to address some jumping and pulling on lead issues. We have only had 2 training sessions so far, but we already have Bailey walking on a loose lead with good control & his jumping up has settled down. Bailey is also a ‘car chaser’, which is our biggest issue and we are hoping that this will settle down with the Bark Buster training schedule we are following. We look forward to the Informal training group classes starting up, so Bailey can socialise with other dogs and have some fun! We have found the training enjoyable and effective and we look forward to watching Bailey grow and learn, Thanks Maureen.

After just one lesson we could see great improvement! Can't thank Ken enough! Highly recommend!
