Bark Busters Reviews and Customer Testimonials

Excellent first session.

We are very happy service we received from making the enquiry to having Gavin visit. Gavin was very knowledgeable and really understood our needs. We have been practising Gavins suggestions and can see a huge difference in Bert’s behaviour. It is useful to re read the report produced by Gavin as a reminder. I feel more relaxed and not as worried especially having visitors or anyone knocking at our door. If you are reading this and are having issues with your dog, I would recommend Barkbusters and especially Gavin for a thorough, engaging and professional service

excellent

We had a really good first visit with Gavin, he was informative and gave us some good advise and training to start with our French bulldog, five days later and we’re already starting to see some good progress!👍 we have booked in to see gavin again in six weeks time, we’re feeling very hopeful for the future. Thank you Gavin!👍

Our first visit - both my daughters and i were unsure of what would happen etc, the lady who came was lovely listened to us watched Cooper in his own space, talked about what we wanted needed, how to change things what to put in place and made us all feel relaxed. so far so good.

We desperately needed some help with our Rescue Dog Gillie everyone that entered the house was subject to very aggressive / intimidating barking especially my brother. We had Gillie in another room as advised and introduced her to Alex again very aggressive approach. By the end of our session Gillie was asleep on Alexs' feet. Alex taught us with that control verbally is what a dog needs no shouting pulling etc and lots and lots training tires the dog mentally as they need this challenge on a daily basis. "BAH" affords you some control in the house. Gillie still has a long way to go as she was a street dog so has known no boundaries or experienced any early socialising skills. Within a week with lots of training around door manners my brother was able to come in and watch football with my partner with a nice relaxing beer and a relaxed dog on his feet ......... nothing short of miraculous!!! We have a lot of walking / park issues to resolve so need to keep going. I do feel that rescue centres should work hand in hand with Bark Busters before rescue dogs are released to peoples homes - better experience for the rehomed dog and their new owners! Alex is unbelievable ..... Actual Dog Whisperer ............ only down side is he wasn't able to move in with us lol!!! I think the 12 months is a must and would highly recommend Alex to anyone with a new dog as teaching them well now will hopefully reap rewards for you and them later.

Delighted with the help. All made sense and we learned a lot. Enjoying putting it into practice.

Wow!I knew Kevin was good but I was beginning to think my life with Bear would continue to be him controlling us. Kevin and Bruno were amazing. He actually got Bear to stop barking at everything and now we are confident to continue the training. Kevin has made our day. Early days yet with Bear as training was only today but such a difference. Thank you so much again.

Easy to understand and follow. Immediate results from some of the activities.

Alex was great!!! What a pro. He has enabled us to better manage our furry beast (50kg’s of muscle) with simple and straightforward commands and body language. We know it’s often the humans that need the training not the dogs so we’re incredibly grateful to Alex for not making us feel tooooo daft 😂 It was a great session and the results are starting to show only a week later. We’ve still got lots of work to do but with Alex’s support over the next 12 months we know we’ll get there. Thanks Alex 🐾🐾

We have just completed one years training with Estelle and I cannot believe the difference she has made. Our Sprocker, Bertie was an 11 month old, over excited attention seeking show off whose behaviour was unmanageable and I despaired of ever training him. We contacted Estelle out of sheer desperation . Bertie jumped, mouthed, stole anything he could get hold off , had temper tantrums and wouldn't walk properly on a lead or recall. Estelle very quickly told us what we were doing wrong and although it was hard to hear we knew she was right. She then gave us lots of advice which we followed, backed up by visits to monitor his progress. We quickly saw an improvement in Bertie . It's been hard work and has required a lot of patience, persistence and consistency, but everyone has noticed how much better behaved he now is. He still has his moments but we feel much better able to manage him and he is turned into a loving companion rather than being 'dynamite on four legs ' I cannot thank Estelle enough for how she has helped us and would have no hesitation in recommending her.

Toilet training improved hugely. Sit training good and walking on lead improved but ongoing!
