Michelle dealt with Barking, Hyperactivity, Jumping up
Very professional. The experience was exceptionally good for little Billie.
Trainer note from Michelle
Hi Susan, it was great to meet you, Marie, Teddy & Billie. Billie responded beautifully to the training and with continued practice she will be far more relaxed around the home. Continue to apply the techniques with your everyday interactions so you can keep Billie responding by working things in around your daily activities and we can build on things going forwards.

Vada is doing well, we have been practising on our walks all the strategies Michelle had showed me. Vada showed no response at the other dogs going past, vada looked and turn back and sat at my feet.
Vada also did the trust exercises with my friend, Vada let Joy mu friend pat her in the dog park after spreading some treats around her feet and joy feed Vada some treats in her hand then joy was able to pat Vada with out being mouthed by Vada.
On our way home Vada only move out in front of me Twice, how ever with the right prompts Vada quickly came back by my side and walked home with Me Vada sat at the gate and waited to be invited in. Really enjoyable walk with Vada.
Trainer note from Michelle
It's great that Vada has been doing well with the training techniques. She's a beautiful young Rottweiler and by taking charge around people's interactions with her and guiding them, Vada will be able to feel more comfortable around new people and learn to enjoy these interactions as she grows more confident.

Michelle dealt with Aggression, Barking, Pulling, Sibling rivalry
Michelle has been excellent from the moment she walked in the door. We have felt comfortable and supported every step of the way with Pollo's training. She's confident, down to earth and that gives us confidence and enthusiasm to continue training Pollo when Michelle leaves. Her notes from each session are comprehensive and written personally for us to follow. We are so impressed!
Trainer note from Michelle
It has been a pleasure to get to know you and Apollo and to assist with his anxious, reactive behaviour. Keep consistent and continue to work on your calm energy when working with him and you will keep making progress!

Michelle dealt with Barking, Recall
Rosie is already showing an improvement with her barking and listening within two lessons. Michelle also showed us a great way to make sure she didn't get anxious when clipping her nails! Which before nobody was able to do. Recommend Michelle 10/10.
Trainer note from Michelle
It has been a pleasure to work with you & Rosie, so far and to be able to address her barking following a neighbour complaint as well as improve her walking skills and behaviour on the lead. You have both done a great job with the training techniques so far - keep up the great work and continue to apply your leadership skills to improve things with Rosie and help her to be a more relaxed, content dog.

Michelle has helped Sadie and Flynn so much and we’ve only had our first session! Would highly recommend
18th May 2021 - Michelle Reay
We engaged bark busters for assistance with our beautiful kelpie puppy Pippin! We were very fortunate to have been paired with Michelle. Michelle was extremely professional from the moment she attended our residence to commence our training sessions. Michelle explained everything clearly, demonstrated what she meant and also worked with us both until we felt comfortable in being able to undertake the training ourselves.
Through multiple visits, Michelle always provided positive encouragements to us as well as Pippin . No question was ever too silly and all the time needed was given by Michelle. We never felt rushed and our puppy has really prospered from these sessions.
We would highly recommend Michelle to assist anyone with their puppy/dog concerns and know they are in good hands.
Thank you Michelle for your assistance.

Michelle has been so professional and made us feel valued as customers. We are already seeing results with our dogs and the explanation of their behaviours has helped us to understand them better. Michelle is a pleasure to work with.
Trainer note from Michelle
Thanks Saxon, it was a pleasure to work with you and Sarah to start to get Neville and Nina's behaviour issues under control. You all did really well in our initial training session and with commitment and practice they will continue to improve. Enjoy your beautiful dogs, they are such characters and so different, just be sure to continue to show them leadership and they will continue to respond!

In the space of a day both of my dogs are much better behaved, have gained confidence and learnt how to show their affection without being too annoying. Thank you!

Michelle dealt with Barking, Pulling
We had a wonderful experience with Michelle. Her training methods were gentle and effective and my dogs seemed to really respond well. I now feel armed with the tools I need to curb my dogs' behaviour issues. We would highly recommend her to other dog owners.
Trainer note from Michelle
It was a pleasure to work with you, and your beautiful playful pair of Groodles - Hazel & Judy. They both responded really well to the training - focusing on you and listening well. Keep up the great work with your practice sessions and you'll have the barking under control and be enjoying a pleasurable walk in no time!

Michelle dealt with Sibling rivalry
After experiencing several dog training specialists with, disappointingly, very little effect or change, it was a significant relief to listen to Bark Busters' thorough explanation of their process and then observe them execute the technique.
We watched our dog 'Bodhi', who suffered from separation anxiety, responded immediately with few to no errors. The techniques were simple to apply and as a result we have experienced significant improvements in Bodhi.

I just couldn't believe the difference, in one day! The training made us feel like we loved our naughty puppy again and we feel like we have a new dog.
