Emma dealt with Aggression, Digging, Jumping up, Pulling, Recall
Over the past few months my 2 and a half year old Rottweiler Zeus has developed some bad habits. Emma came in and within minutes was able to assist and help guide us in the right direction. I have seen drastic improvements in Zeus and he is making steady progress. I am very happy with Emma and look forward to continuing training with Zeus under her guidance.
Trainer note from Emma
Zeus, the 2.5year old Rottweiler, had been getting up to no good, so his dad called Bark Busters for help. Along with showing Zeus' dad how to be the leader for Zeus & how to communicate with him in a way that he could understand we addressed: - Jumping - Pulling on the lead - Dog Reactive Behaviour - Digging - Attention Seeking Both Zeus & his dad have done a great job so far with their training & I'm looking forward to seeing this big rotty boy at our park sessions soon.

Emma dealt with Barking, Chewing, Jumping up, Pulling, Recall
Emma was really good. She explained everything well and even after the first seesion we could see how well Koda was responding to the techniques Emma taught us. Only early days but definitely notice a difference already. Would happily recommend Emma and barkbusters.
Trainer note from Emma
Thanks Tanya. Koda, the 14 week old Maremma is a gorgeous boy, who was causing a bit of trouble finding his place in his new family, so his mum called Bark Busters to teach them how to speak dog & help Koda to fit in nicely. During his first speak dog session we worked on: - Barking - Jumping - Biting - Standing up to the table - Staying on one spot on the sofa - Chewing - Pestering for food - Walking nicely on the lead. I'm looking forward to seeing Koda's progress at our next session. Keep up the great work. :)

Emma dealt with Barking, Jumping up, Pulling, Recall, Sibling rivalry
Emma was absolutely amazing with our boy. She was very professional, the training was very simple and effective. We feel confident that we can continue the training ourselves. A day later we are already seeing a change in Finn’s behaviour.
Trainer note from Emma
Thanks Holly, you guys did a great job during your first session, and I am confident that your continued progress will see Finn go from strength to strength. Finn, the 2 year old Border Collie, is a very lucky boy indeed. After an unknown past he joined his family a couple of weeks ago. During his first session we worked through a list of behaviours including: - Barking - Jumping - Separation anxiety, leading to crying, whining & destructive behaviour - Pulling on the lead - Jealous behaviour - Licking - Sit - Recall. Looking forward to seeing Finn's continued progress at our next session soon.

Emma dealt with Aggression, Barking, Chewing, Jumping up, Recall
Although very early days with my pup Wilson, I have already started seeing results and know that with consistency the progression will only continue. Emma was very knowledgeable and patient with explaining everything to me and making sure I understood the techniques and the reason behind why it is done this way.
Emma seems very reliable and has already proved to be when it comes to ongoing support. Cant wait to see where this journey takes Wilson and I.
Trainer note from Emma
Thanks Mel, it was lovely to meet you. Wilson the 10 week old Maremma is an absolutely adorable puppy. During his first speak dog session we worked on: - Biting - Barking - Jumping - Separation - Getting him used to the lead & collar - Nipping / Mouthing / Chewing - Answering the front door. I'm definitely looking forward to seeing Wilson's progress at our next session, and his continued progress as he grows up.

Looking forward to seeing his continued progress at our follow up soon.

Sampson is responding really well to the methods Emma recommend. We are already noticing changes in our pup after one day!

Thanks Kaytlen :) Sampson, the 2 year old Rottweiler x Australian Shepherd, is a smart boy who knew how to use his charm to get his own way :) Sampson had a list of behaviours that needed addressing, but the thing that was causing the most stress was that he was growling & snapping at other dogs & this behaviour was progressively getting worse. During our first session we showed his family how to take the leadership back at home & addressed: Barking Jumping Pulling on the lead Dog reactivity Behaviour around the front door Mouthing Attention Seeking Separation anxiety Behaviour when his family are eating His family did a great job during the first session and we saw big improvements straight away. Looking forward to our next session and seeing this boy at our park sessions too.

Emma was friendly and easily explained the training techniques.
Kitty's behaviour changed almost instantly. The training is very simple, effective & friendly.
We really enjoyed the training, Emma is an amazing therapist, very relatable & great with the dogs.
We will recommend to all our friends & it's well worth the money.

Abbi is a 7 year old rescue dog new to our family and we wanted to give her the best chance to have a good and relaxed life with us. Emma explained dog behaviour in a way our family could understand. She worked with Abbi and us and immediately began to help us modify Abbi's behaviours. We are continuing to work with Abbi using the techniques shown. It is only day two and already she is beginning to loose leash walk which previously thought may not be possible. She is also not reacting to stimulus anywhere near as much as possible and is responding well to correction. We are giving her lots of positives too as she is trying so hard to please. We highly recommend Emma and are looking forward to continue our work with her.
Trainer note from Emma
Thanks Danae :) Miss Abbi, the beautiful 7 year old Boxer X is a very lucky girl indeed to have found such a loving home, with a family who is committed to making her life better. The biggest issues that her family were having were walking nicely on the lead & her reactive behaviour to other dogs. During her first session we also covered attention seeking, jealous behaviour, barking, manners at the front door & her behaviour around the cats. With her family's commitment to her training Abbi will go from strength to strength, and we are looking forward to having her join our park sessions soon.
