Ben dealt with Barking, Pulling
We are very happy with the first session we had with Ben. He explained everything to us well and give us some simple techniques to help us with Yogi. My wife in particular feel a increased confidence in handling Yogi on his walks.
1st April 2018 - Gina Williams
Gina dealt with Barking, Other
Gina is very good with both myself and topsy. She's very clear, and explains everything so you understand what is needed and why. Soon, Topsy will see me like she sees Gina and I, with Gina's help, will have her trained, instead of her having me so well trained.
31st March 2018 - Liz Johnson
Liz dealt with Aggression, Barking
Liz was excellent. Everything she said made complete sense. Maximus and Mia are nearly 3 and are quite spoiled, yet they have adapted so quickly to the training. It hasn't been hard work at all- almost as if they are relieved.
31st March 2018 - Ben Jordan
Ben dealt with Aggression, Barking
I would like to say a massive thank you to Ben!!! We had ongoing problems with Sasha being aggressive and straight away after Ben's Visit she improved a lot. His training technique is great and it works!!! There is still work I need to do but she has improved a lot, we can now have visitors around. Ben was very professional and patient with my 4 dogs and gave us a good way how to train all of them. He was confident and very nice with my dogs. Looking forward to our next appointment!!!
30th March 2018 - Sharon Chapman
Sharon dealt with Jumping up, Pulling, Puppy management, Recall
Sharon gave some excellent advice and an explanation for each of my dog's behaviours of concern and how best to rectify them. She has a very professional approach and I felt confident she could help Jasper and me to improve the behaviours I had concerns about. I have welcomed the further training tips sent by email and feel reassured that there will be follow up supervision over the next 12 months. I have recommended Bark Busters to several dog owning friends.

27th March 2018 - Alex Fraser
Alex dealt with Hyperactivity, Pulling
I've got a energetic 11 month old Rottweiler called Logan. He has got a great personality but his door manners and walking was horrendous, so I got in touch with Alex.
Before Alex arrived I was very sceptical, but he is honestly great at what he does. Within the session he listened to our needs on a individual level, he took his time to show us the correct ways and methods to engage Logan, had us demonstrate the techniques and then gives us timely feedback so we got it right. By the end of the session Logan wasn't pulling on his lead and was waiting patiently at doors till we allowed him to greet people. It's just up to us to keep up the training, but I will definitely be booking more time with Alex for further help (recall training).
You can tell he has a real passion for his job, and it shows with his professionalism and passion. Logan and I would recommend him to anybody who needs some support.
Trainer note from Alex
I really enjoyed meeting Logan and his parents. At 11 months old he is still a puppy, but a 50kg puppy can sometimes be hard to handle!! The session went really really well and he made his Mum and Dad very proud when he started to listen and walk to heel. I can't wait to catch up with them in the future to continue with their and his training.

Estelle dealt with Barking, Hyperactivity, Jumping up, Recall, Sibling rivalry
Estelle was very friendly and informative. Whilst we already had a rough of idea of the problem, we didn't know how to resolve this but Estelle was able to explain what actions we should take. We are already seeing an improvement. Although it is sometimes difficult to remember ingrained behaviour, following the instructions is working.
26th March 2018 - Graham Milgrew
Jo was absolutely lovely. She calmed our "new puppy parent" anxiety and answered the thousands of questions we had for her. She also had a plethora of useful tips outside our questions, things to look out for, toys specific to our puppy breed, and how to travel with him etc. She has a very loving approach but it gets results. We were dealing with issues such as toilet training, responding to being called, playing with other dogs, basic discipline and chewing. We felt the information given by Jo came from personal experience both in her own home and professionally, it was nothing that one could simply read up online, so we really felt lucky with our trainer. Her training is also very useful as she has several dogs herself all different sizes, so Benzo could train with different breeds and sizes.
Trainer note from Graham
Benzo is a Jack Russell puppy and lives with his owners in a particularly busy part of London so needs to be a real "urban dog" capable of coping with busy streets where everyone wants to meet him and also the wide expanses of a park full of tourists on hired bikes, horse riders, lakes and also lots of water birds. He is a friendly confident dog that loves people and dogs and is very responsive to his owners, but as with many pups doesn't always recognise danger and needs appropriate guidance in his interactions. Recall is important to every puppy and dog, but is essential with such a high level of distractions on a daily basis and his owners have prioritised this knowing that Jack Russell's are generally faarless independent dogs that were not bred to be under close command of their owner. He has met our German Shepherd and I am looking forward to introducing him to more of our dogs in the future so we can do more "live" practice.
