Bark Busters Reviews and Customer Testimonials

Everything was explained to me, I have been given clear verbal and written instruction. I felt the trainer was helpful and approachable and spent time listening to our concerns. Hopefully as we carry out the prescribed training we will have a different dog.

Absolutely wonderful. Sharon was patient and understanding. Took time in explaining our dog’s behaviour and how to change unwanted behaviour.

Excellent talk with Sharon. She listened to our concerns and provided us with a plan of action that is proving to be a great success.

My 18 month old cocker spaniel has a great personality but also turns into a maniac when he hears a knock at the door, a noise he doesn't know where it's come from, any movement outside etc. He pulls on the lead and doesn't want to be left alone, I can't even nip into the kitchen without him at my feet. After our visit from Alex today, we have started to correct all this behaviour. I feel confident I've got the tools to carry this forward for a much better relationship with my dog and less of a chance of burst ear drums or someone fearing they'll be savaged if they knock on the door. Today I've seen our dog listen to a knock at the door without barking, waiting back from the door, waiting at a boundary line, left him inside alone for 2 mins without barking (bearing in mind I couldn't even take the bin out before) and had an enjoyable walk with him on the lead. I couldn't recommend Alex enough, although there's still a way to go after the initial lesson I feel like I might actually get some normality back. He's worked a miracle in my eyes today.

Alex was very professional and friendly. Mavis is a rescue English Bulldog. I've had her 5 weeks now and while she gets on with my other 3 dogs when I'm walking her and she sees another dog she starts pulling barking trying to get to the dog and whining really bad. Alex showed me how to handle her on these outbursts and hopefully we will see a difference and she will be to heel. We also did indoor training as well which is a great success. I would definitely recommend Alex. Its also great he comes to your home.

Mavis responded well in training. Alex showed me how to keep her under control when she sees another dog or cat as she starts to pull and tries to get to them barking and whining. Mavis is 4years old and I have only had her 5weeks and don't know how she was trained before so sticking to the programme plan I received off Alex hopefully we will see some changes.

We contacted Bark Busters as we needed help with our French Bulldog who was showing signs of worsening resource guarding/aggression and general behavioural issues such as lead pulling and jumping up. We were absolutely blown away with the training, knowledge and professionalism provided by Kirsty during our first session and how our dog responded instantly to the passive leadership techniques that Kirsty taught us. Kirsty spent 3 hours with us and we covered all of the behaviours we were concerned with, all of which have improved drastically since we introduced the corrective commands taught by Kirsty. After the first session Kirsty provided us with a written analysis of our dogs behaviour and the reasons for it, and detailed instructions of everything we covered in the session. This was super helpful as it meant we didn’t need to make notes during the session and could just focus on the training. We will be recommending Bark Busters and specifically Kirsty to everyone - fantastic value and money well spent.

Our trainer Kirsty was brilliant very knowledgeable patient and friendly . Very professional and has taught us and Bella techniques that have had immediate and positive results. Kirsty was approachable and friendly. We had Bella as a rescue dog from the dogs home and found we had challenging issues to address. Kirsty has helped us address these issues and we would not hesitate in recommending her

Estelle explained everything perfectly. Thankyou

Liz was brilliant and we can’t thank her enough. She fully listened to everything we told her and set up and training plan to help with our dogs with their sibling rivalry. Both dogs reacted positively and quickly to her suggestions. Liz even had time to work on lead training with us. It’s early days and a work in progress but I can finally see a happy ending for us and both dogs.

Liz was fantastic. She was super helpful, very knowledgeable and made this interesting.

Very good initial session. Had some instant results but recognise we have a way to go!!
