Bark Busters Reviews and Customer Testimonials

16th August 2020 - Estelle Jackson

Estelle dealt with Chewing, Puppy management

Estelle was excellent, she almost read between the lines and explained exactly how we should be getting to know diesel, I was having problems with him biting me, however since Estelle showing us how to deal with it he has been amazing and really having started to enjoy playing and living with him, she really helped with some training techniques which are regularly practised and really working, the confidence we have with Diesel is improved, really excellent training.

11th August 2020 - David Jefferay

David dealt with Barking, Hyperactivity, Jumping up, Puppy management, Separation anxiety, Toileting

Excellent! David’s training has had a positive effect on Henry, he’s a lot calmer, and is generally more settled and its only been a week and were seeing these results. David's approach towards Henry and us as a family has been so reassuring, everything explained thoroughly and in a calm and professional manner. Highly recommend.

10th August 2020 - Emma Barrett

Emma dealt with Aggression, Barking, Separation anxiety

After just one 3 and a half hour session with Emma, the difference in both our dogs was remarkable. Our house used to be absolute bedlam whenever the front door bell rung with Cooper running round the house and Quinn chasing him. Now, Quinn doesn't even lift his head when the bell goes, and Cooper wanders into the hall, but retreats when instructed. Quinn used to be quite aggressive to any visitors to our house, barking and lunging at them. We had visitors the other day, including children, and he was as good as gold (on a lead for the duration of the visit) but no barking or lunging. Will continue the daily sessions with the dogs to reinforce the training, and looking forward to Emma's next visit to work on some other (less major) issues.

Trainer note from Emma

I am so pleased that you are seeing progress. Thanks so much for the review.

7th August 2020 - Emma Barrett

Emma dealt with Barking, Hyperactivity, Jumping up, Recall

Today we had our first training session with Emma. We have an American Akita who is 7 months old. He is a lovely boy but was clearly in charge of our household. He ALWAYS jumps up on us, friends, visitors (basically anyone who came to the front door) and being such a big boy we needed it to stop ASAP!! He also barks when he is behind the pet gate or if we are not downstairs as and when he wants. This made our mornings so rushed stressful as we barely had enough time to get ready before he would start yelping for us to come down, not the best way to start the day trust me. Emma was so patient with us and Tommy, and listened to all the issues we were experiencing. She changed our entire view of how we should communicate with Tommy and how to get him to respond to us. After just a few attempts Tommy picked up the commands and even sat calmly and waited for us to open the door and allow people in. I can't express how amazed I am at Tommy's progress just in one session. I feel more confident to have people in our home and I am happy that we are able to give Tommy a more structured life. Thank you so much Emma, you have changed all of our lives.

Trainer note from Emma

Thank you for your lovely review. Its a wonderful feeling when we know how to 'speak dog', that is all we did today and he understood ! Keep up the good work.

5th August 2020 - Alex Fraser

Alex dealt with Barking, Jumping up, Pulling, Separation anxiety, Other

Alex was a brilliant trainer and within a few hours we saw a huge improvement in Buddy's behaviour. He wasn't a naughty dog but We as owners just needed the correct guidance And Alex was knowledgable, Professional and Friendly trainer who told us what to do and how to do it to correct the slight issues we had with Buddy. Within the first hour we could see improvements and by the time the session was done and his evening walk came around he was a completely different dog. Would highly recommend Alex's services to anyone looking for help with their dog!

- -.S, Sale, Greater Manchester (Testimonial)

Trainer note from Alex

Great session today with Buddy and his Mum and Dad. Buddy was a little nervous when I first arrived, but by the time we finished the session, he fell asleep with his head on my knee which made leaving very difficult. The lead work went really well and I was delighted to hear he walked well on his second walk of the day. Can’t wait to catch up with them all in a few weeks. 

5th August 2020 - Jacquie Callaby

Jacquie dealt with Aggression, Barking, Hyperactivity

Jacquie is AMAZING. I cannot thank her enough. She changed Honey's behaviour quite literally overnight... She taught us so much with just one word! I love that even now, months later, I can still text her for advice too and she'll help. Even with 'silly' things. We recommend her to EVERYONE!

- -.S, Guildford, Surrey (Testimonial)

Trainer note from Jacquie

We did all the initial training via zoom as lockdown had just happened. Honey responded really well, & I have now been out to meet the family & Honey for the first time to have a catch up & do some lead training. Well done to the family & Honey for following the advice.

5th August 2020 - Alex Fraser

Alex dealt with Aggression, Hyperactivity, Jumping up, Pulling, Puppy management, Toileting

Thanks to Alex we have gone from thinking we have the border collie puppy version of the anti-Christ to a puppy that can be trained ! There is work to do, no one should mistakenly think that a puppy can be trained immediately like they magically appear to do on TV dog trainer programmes, but with work and the help of a great trainer like Alex it can be done. On a personal level Alex was very knowledgeable, easy to work with and had a great sense of humour, I would highly recommend his services to anyone. Thanks

- -.T, Hyde, Cheshire, Cheshire (Testimonial)

Trainer note from Alex

The first 12 months with any puppy can be a challenge, even if people have owned dogs before! We are never going to fully train a puppy in 3 hours, 3 weeks or 3 months, but I can provide owners with the tools and skills to train their puppies to be well behaved adults when they grow up. Training never ends, but it is not complex and fits in with day to day life, and as long as owners are consistent, they will get the results that they are after!

4th August 2020 - Jacquie Callaby

Jacquie dealt with Puppy management

Jacqui was really great. Very knowledgeable and helped us start to train our deaf dog. I was left with lots of info and different things to try.

- -.B, Surbiton, Surrey (Testimonial)

Trainer note from Jacquie

Little Daisy is deaf, but we think she may hear some tones so we are going to work on that. It’s also very important at this early stage that she’s focused on her owner & as she gets a little older we will work on this more so we are able to get her to come to her owner on a hand signal. 

4th August 2020 - Angela Young

3rd August 2020 - Ben Jordan

Ben dealt with Pulling, Puppy management, Recall

Ben was brilliant he put me at ease as soon as he walked in. He was so patient and made sure I was happy with each exercise we did. In all Ben was with us for over 3 hours and I felt really positive when he left. I am so pleased I took the step and called Bark Busters as I am sure Luna and I are on the way to a happy trained dog thanks to Ben

- -.V, Probus, Cornwall (Testimonial)

1st August 2020 - Alex Fraser

Alex dealt with Aggression, Pulling, Other

We thoroughly enjoyed our training with Alex last week. Tommy loved him and it was immediately clear that he knew what he was doing. Previously I was concerned about feeling silly and judged but Alex made us feel at ease and empowered to train Tommy. We saw some incredible immediate results and have clear instructions on continuing to build on these. I would definitely recommend Alex to anyone searching for a trainer. Thanks Alex! Laura Fenn

- -.L, Prestwich, Greater Manchester (Testimonial)

Trainer note from Alex

I couldn’t have said it much better myself. I’m simply looking to restructure the pecking order, by training and empowering the owners so that their dogs trust, respect and listen to them more, and in turn worry less about things outside of their control. Really enjoyed this session and I’m looking forward to catching up with them in the future.
