Bark Busters Reviews and Customer Testimonials
10th August 2021 - Lee Hardy
Lee dealt with Barking, Hyperactivity, Jumping up, Recall
Lee was absolutely brilliant so professional, kind, understanding and so thorough! His knowledge was just amazing and just generally so incredibly helpful and supportive! Pal, and also Buddy.. have made great progress already, Buddy still likes to answer back or seem as though he’s talking to us with a cheeky little noise but we couldn’t be more impressed with the progress in such a short time. We would 1000% recommend to anyone and everyone! Thank you!

Alex dealt with Barking, Pulling, Puppy management, Recall
As Alfie is our first ever dog, I felt I needed training and Alex made me feel at ease and not at all stupid. He gave me simple and easy to follow instructions. One month down the line Alfie is getting a lot better (bar his 6 month adolescent tantrums when he doesn't want to listen on occasions lol). More importantly Alfie is at ease with Alex. I would recommend Alex
Trainer note from Alex
It’s been a year of puppies - some first time puppy owners, some experienced dog owners, but regardless of experience, all puppies can have their challenges. We are never going to fully train a puppy or its owner on one session, but with ongoing support we can make them the best version of them selves which is extremely rewarding!

Brilliant training already seeing progression seems so much more calm and relaxed and at ease, dog food diet has definitely helped

Alex dealt with Hyperactivity, Jumping up, Pulling
Alex was great with Max and was really helpful with the problems we had.he gave us some really good techniques to use and we have already seen positive progress. Thanks again, would definitely recommend Alex and BarkBusters.
Trainer note from Alex
I really enjoyed this session and I was delighted with how well behave Max was both inside and on his walk. Sometimes it is just a matter of fine tuning the owners skills. Keep up the good work!!

5th August 2021 - Neil Price
Neil dealt with Aggression, Recall
I was very impressed by the way that my dog took to Neil immediately on meeting him. He observed her behaviour and our interactions and was able to pinpoint the cause of the problems. He ran through some exercises with us and then gave us written notes of daily homework, plus observations and advice such as voice tones. He also provided additional leaflets for further reading and assistance. He followed up this in-person advice with a leaflet about body language which I am working with to try and resolve the issues between me and my dog.
30th July 2021 - Ben Jordan
Ben dealt with Barking, Pulling
Before Ben came to us, Hugo, an otherwise lovely dog, would bark incessantly, making it impossible to work from home, or take him anywhere in the car. We thought we'd tried everything, friendly advice from neighbours, YouTube videos, endless searching the internet for solutions but nothing worked. In the first session, Ben showed us practical techniques to quieten Hugo. We couldn't believe it, but the results were almost immediate. One week on and we now have a quiet household! Highly recommend.
22nd July 2021 - Gavin Chambers
Gavin dealt with Barking, Hyperactivity, Jumping up
Gavin stayed for many hours, firstly we went through the problems I would like help with and how we was going to work though to achieve them without reg being in the room. I was also provided handouts, the session report is really helpful to reflect back on after as we went though many different techniques myself and reg can work on together. Look forward to having future follow ups.
Trainer note from Gavin
It was great to start your training journey with Reg, he is a superstar, ready to please and a bundle of energy. Thank you for the great review, see you soon!

21st July 2021 - Lee Hardy
Lee dealt with Aggression, Barking, Jumping up
We were really pleased with our training session. We were provided with lots of advice and a core training method to apply with our cockapoo, and you could see instant results. We have continued to apply this consistently across the past week and the change in our dog in being possessive over food and other items, jumping up when people arrive, and barking at the window in particular have been dramatic. It's reduced the levels of stress in our house considerably! Would highly recommend.
21st July 2021 - Graham Milgrew
My first lesson was a zoom call, with Jo. I found this invaluable as it gave me a real insight into my dog and his behaviour and I realised he isn't being naughty but just being a puppy. We did a lesson on 'watch me' or 'look at me' which was very successful as a first training method and Hector and I practice every day.
Trainer note from Graham
This owner has a 10-month-old English Bulldog. He was a typical young dog and really struggled to pay attention to his owner, but adored her so was always getting underfoot. He was also very excitable and anything new would make him explode with energy. Not easy to handle in such a heavy-built dog. His owner has worked really hard on getting his attention and their follow up visit recently has shown how far she has come with him. He is a total credit to her.

Kevin dealt with Aggression, Barking, Hyperactivity, Jumping up
Kevin was amazing, we thought we were going to have a very difficult if not impossible time correcting Bella (our pampered Frenchie's) bad habits but with his instructions we have seen positive results already. He has given us the tools to remove Bellas “top dog behaviour†in our household which will in turn make for a much more relaxed Bella. Can't recommend Kevin enough.

Kevin dealt with Aggression, Barking
Kevin was absolutely amazing. My husband, in particular, was sceptical that anything could be done about both dogs barking in addition to reactivity to other dogs. We were very pleasantly surprised and pleased with the results. The system is as much about training the humans as well as the dogs. We have been set our homework and it is up to us to keep the training up.

Lynn dealt with Barking, Pulling, Recall
Overall I have say my first appointment with Bark Busters Home Dog Training service was a very positive experience. Because of the nature of the issues we are having with our dog, a one to one home visit was the perfect solution. The appointment took place at our home where the trainer was able to assess the issues and was able to show practicable solutions that are easy to learn and perfect. The trainer demonstrated each task and also made sure I knew what was required. A summary of the lesson instructions was emailed so we can practice with a follow up review in 3 weeks. We are already seeing improvements in our dog's behaviour.
