Excellent- easy once started. We have noticed a major improvement in our dogs since the training.
Trainer note from Todd
Biggie the Jack Russell male and Darcey the Poodle cross male were barking and marking outdoor furniture when the owners were away. Both boys are lovely gentle natured dogs but needed training. Sandra and George understand now much more about why their dogs misbehaved and have new levels of communication with them. The crazy barking is already much improved. Most importantly though their much loved dogs are on the road to being happier, more relaxed and generally better dogs to live with. Well done Sandra and George.

Thank you Philip for helping us with Rex ! Rex is a seven month old American staffy who wouldn't listen at all and would go crazy jumping on people and barked at anything! Now he is so tame - he listens, and comes when he is called. Within 24 hours Rex has changed.
Thank you soo much! I will recommend you anytime! Well worth every single cent.
Trainer note from Todd
Thanks for the kind words Pav & Ivan. Rex is a handsome young dog and just needed some guidance to be the "good boy" that he can be. Having him jump on you wasn't any fun and as a powerful type of dog such as an American Staffy it is so important to have a well behaved dog. Keep up the simple daily exercises and "speaking dog" to him and he will just get better and better over time. I look forward to our next session of Bark Busters Dog Training!

Todd dealt with Puppy management
Philip was professional and gentle with my new puppy. He encorporated games for small session breaks for my puppy and she worked hard to complete the tasks he set her during the 5 minute sessions (appropriate for puppies).
At 10 weeks, Bella was taught "come", "no biting", "door entry ettique" and learning how leash feels in the backyard.
I was taught how to communicate effectively with Bella, how often to train her, and what to do next with her.
Philip was an excellent teacher and I recommend him for people who have new puppies or problems with their dogs.
Trainer note from Todd
Thank you for kind words Rose, I appreciate and LOVE the positive feedback :)) Bella is boisterous Black Labrador puppy and at 10 weeks was already about 10kg! She's going to be a solid girl! She just had the usual puppy issues and it was fantastic that you engaged Bark Busters to help you from the start. I love it when people do this! Saves you going through so many problems like chewing, toileting and biting, that most puppies have problems with at the start. In the end the fees are less than the cost of the damage a puppy can do in a few minutes in your home! I'm looking forward to seeing Bella again in a few weeks or months, in fact whenever you decide you want me to visit again. And remember, all these future visits are FREE once you have paid for our Lifetime Support with a Gold Lesson. Enjoy your pup! And thank you again.

Todd dealt with Barking, Jumping up
It has been an amazing change to Daisy's behaviour since Philip's visit. Daisy is much calmer, ignores nearly all outside noises, and hasn't barked at anyone in the household going in or out, or rushed out the door ahead of me. She seems to enjoy learning to "stay", and is getting the hang of walking to heel.
Trainer note from Todd
Daisy is a 2yr old female Cavoodle who was barking a million times a day and driving Paul who works from home crazy. He couldn't conduct business without her interrupting with her contact barking. She also jumped on guests and the furniture all the time and when new guests arrived barked and barked at them. Friendly in the end she took ages to calm down though. So your work with her to date has seen a fantastic improvement Debbie. Well done and thank you for allowing Bark Busters to help you out. It's a true pleasure.

Philip was very helpful and explained the training very well. We have noticed a change in our dog almost immediately he is a lot calmer and seems more content. I would highly recommend Philip to anyone who needs help with their dog.
Thank you Philip
Cheers Colin & Wanda
Trainer note from Todd
Jasper is a male 16 month Great Dane weighing in at 70kg (as much as I do haha!). So when he jumped up on people that was a big problem! He also lunges at other dogs to greet them when on the lead. A bit intimidating to other dogs and their owners who don't know what a gentle boy he is. So getting this all under control was a priority. Jasper has had just one lesson so far and we have more to do to solve all his behavioural issues but as you said he is a lot calmer already. He will be even better after our next lesson. What a great, big boy he is!

Philip was as patient with us as he was with George, and given he had 5 adults listening in he was able to answer all their queries.
Clear in his directions, it was obvious that he was tailoring his training to meet George's individual personality, as well as that of his owners.
Trainer note from Todd
George the Silky Terrier had a serious barking problem, and was starting to growl at family who approached his mother when she was cuddling him. He was actually very nervous about his place in the world. He has some way to go yet to truly relax but we have seen his true personality peek through now. Patience and daily training will win him over in the end. Well done for helping little George out.

We have a very playful and cheeky 18 month old boxer,and also a large stubborn staffy x who is 3 yrs old. The training techniques are fantastic.
We love the fact that it isn't a physical approach.
Our dogs with regular training have responded very well and are completely different dogs !
I would happily recommend bark busters to anyone needing to train their dogs which made our life so much easier.
Thank you Philip, we actually can't thank you enough !
Trainer note from Todd
Ruby and Mack are terrific dogs! They cut back their barking a lot immediately, as you are now able to walk through doorways without being bowled over, and having big dogs like these two jumping up on you was a no-no as well. Both these issues are cured. Keep up the daily exercises Nina and Aron. And thank you for choosing Bark Busters!

There is so much that me and my partner didn't know about training to disobedient dogs. The first lesson brought out behaviours and obedience in my dogs that I didn't think were possible. It now requires very little maintenance to keep two well behaved dogs in check.
Trainer note from Todd
Your two Shah Pei cross Jack Russell dogs Kevin and Pepsi had been in trouble. Well Kevin was likely to be declared a Dangerous Dog after escaping your yard and nipping a passerby. The lessons went really well and you saw and learnt what to do to regain control. You saw that they aren't "aggressive dogs" really, but we're certainly showing aggressive behaviour. Once you implemented our simple exercises you saw the immediate improvements in both dogs. So well done for engaging #barkbusters to help you all. Keep up the great work!

Tank is a very aggressive dog and when Philip came to the door as he does with most visitors Tank was ready to rip his throat out. He would bark at any person or anything that went up our street he hated the post lady. When Philip left he was a changed dog and that was only after 3hrs. So hopefully continuing on with the program it will help him no end. Laila was the stubborn one but she was soon following the program as well she didn't have the same issues Tank did but her barking was very annoying. So when Philip left it was a nice quiet house. Don't get me wrong we still have some small problems but I am sure it will be worth it to have happy,quiet loving dogs all thanks to BARKBUSTERS!!!!!!!!
Trainer note from Todd
Haha yes Tank was virtually frothing at the mouth when I knocked! But once you two knew how to #speakdog you saw his true personality shine through. He just needed you to be his leaders and take over his guard dog duties (for which he just isn't suited!) After one brief lesson Laila and he have improved 100% but the real consolidation will be over the days ahead. Keep up your daily exercises and see you in 2 weeks as arranged. Aggressive Tank and barking Laila thank you!

The training that we did on Monday has been very helpful. Monty is still a bit challenging with his learning. He is still a bit nervous but Samson is coming along just fine. I can get him to stay and walk away from him for some time now and he will wait until I go back to him. They are both walking well on the lead we had 1 night off training them walking because of the rain but other than that they seem to be responding to what we have been doing. Many thanks Philip and hopefully you will notice a difference in them both when you come back for your follow-up. Regards Megan
Trainer note from Todd
Thanks Megan. Monty is a male 7 year old Miniature Poodle who pulled on the lead a lot, and barked and rushed towards people and dogs. He also jumped on guests and went crazy rushing at the front door when anyone knocked. Sampson is a Pug Cross male 6 years and is a back yard barker. He also chewed at the paling fence! Both dogs have done super well thanks to your practice! Keep it up!

With Philip's help, we have successfully begun to reshuffle the pack hierarchy and hope to have nice calm puppies.
Trainer note from Todd
Lalita is about 7 and a female and Neji is about 6 and a male, both Moodles and totally cute! Lolita the female is pretty nervous and dog aggressive on walks. She has also been aggressive to Neji over toys so there's sibling rivalry and dog aggression or dog reactive behaviours. Both dogs did really well at the first lesson and we all saw how they calmed right down. Lalita especially ceased her constant, nervous pacing and was able to settle down. Neji also began to listen and show his humans more focus and obedience after a little training. Both showed their bright intelligent poodle cross brains at work!

The training was great. Philip was really helpful and focused on answering all the questions we had. The dogs responded well to the training on the day and we have had a few follow ups to keep helping us. One dog is doing really well and the other is a bit harder to teach but doing ok.
Trainer note from Todd
MJ & Penny are two Australian Bulldogs females. The problems were pretty serious as they have been getting into fights occasionally which we call Sibling Rivalry. To add to the complexity MJ is deaf! We have seen how both dogs can now walk on the lead without pulling, and with consistent training the squabbling issues can be addressed too. Penny barks a bit as well and with our training her owners understand why she does this and know what to do to stop this nuisance barking.
