Bark Busters Reviews and Customer Testimonials

Emma arrived on time and spent about 3hrs with us, she really listened to what I was saying and how to address the issues we are having. Didn't think we would get anywhere on the first visit as Kevin didn't stop barking for about a hour but she managed to calm him down. We did loose lead walking in the house and outside, he was really bad at pulling and genuine being outside. Early days and I'm sure a lot more work to do with all his other problems but wow what a change already.

Gina was amazing. I was a little worried about having a trainer especially since it has been 17 years since I last had a puppy. Gina was very calm with my puppy and extremely informative and put us both at our ease. The training is going well so far!!

I contacted Alex by phone, dog training was very new to me and wasn't even really sure what I was asking for.. from the moment Alex answered the phone, he explained things in a way I could understand and also made me feel alot calmer about everything. My dog got bitten by another dog in the park and since then has turned aggressive towards other animals. I was so worried about what to do for the best as everything I had tried failed. Alex came to my house and was great with my dog.. by he taught me so many things I was unaware of, and helped me learn to handle situations differently.. we have only had our first 1 hour training session and I am already noticing such a big difference in him! I would recommend Alex 100%.

gavin gave me some really good tips on on leading and gaining control. buddy is getting much better in the house and out on leash with the bark buster harness he was reactive while out as he is a rescue dog. he still is a bit reactive to some people and dogs but not as much now iv been doing what gavin told me to do. i was lost with things to try as iv never had a reactive dog but this training so far is working a treat .

My dogs are adult. They had several issues as hyperactivity, separation anxiety, aggressive behaviour/pulling during our walks.I never considered to ask a trainer for an help. Alex was very friendly and attentive. My dogs loved him at the first sight! On our first lesson I was impressed. My dogs responded very well within minutes. They started to listen to me and they stop pulling me during our walks. I' m keep on doing the exercises suggested by my trainer. I can see little improvement day by day. I definitely recommend  this service!

The session was great! I must admit, I had been a little apprehensive - after a year of shielding and a very clingy dog, I wasn't sure what to expect. Alex put us at ease straight away, and was supportive and informative. Betty responded really well (once she got over her initial grumble!), and we have lots of useful info to take away and be practicing. We wanted to help Betty be the best she could be, and we're certainly getting there (she's a super clever dog, it was us that needed training!). Would definitely recommend to others!

Very well explained with patience backed up with written advice. Looking forward to the next lesson with some trepidation as I have not entirely convinced my dog that I am boss!

Three hours well spent! We got in touch with Alex for our six month old working cocker spaniel puppy Oti. Alex was great, he listened to our concerns, really got to understand us all and gave us simple and effective methods to try out. We covered house manners, lead walking, recall and more in the first session and we could see improvements straight away. We've also been given lots of extra info so we can keep up all the training. Cannot recommend enough - Thank you so much Alex!

Very calm & Regan took to Neil straight away. Looking back now I could see Neil taking everything in. Every look & movement. The homework has not been too much - or too little. & Regan has started to respond in some situations. Neil has been on hand for updates too. Still need to start the journey to tackle 2 areas but overall pleased with the journey so far.

Before our first meet with Alex, it's safe to say, as “parents”, we were both nervous! We'd experienced behavioural issues with both of our miniature Daxies for some time and feared it was a case of not being able to teach an old dog new tricks. Despite our initial reservations, Alex immediately put us all at ease. We were given lots of very helpful information on how our attitudes and behaviours were affecting our pets and how to deal with them appropriately when they would respond to stimuli. Highly, highly recommend. Relaxed yet informative session and we saw a difference within a few hours...Now just a case of keeping up our end of the bargain, with Alex on hand if we need further assistance and support. Don't do what I did and put it off for yonks; it'll make your life so so much easier! I'm looking forward to implementing the techniques and continuing to see improvements.

After just two hours with Emma, my Darla is like a different dog! She's a rescue with separation anxiety who would constantly bark if anyone was in the kitchen/around food. Emma was absolutely brilliant with Darla and she calmed down so quickly compared to how she's reacted previously to people she's never met. She pointed out everything I can improve on, demonstrated all of the techniques to me and stayed whilst I practiced. After just this session, Darla ignored the doorbell, barely barked at dinner time, napped whilst I went out, and slept the entire night in her den (which she previously wouldn't so much as nap in). I can't wait to see my girl continue to improve and will definitely be seeing Emma again when Darla is ready for her recall training!
