Bark Busters Reviews and Customer Testimonials

Lynn has been so helpful, informative, supportive & patient in her training of Pepe and more so us!! Within a few days of her first visit Pepe was house trained following her methods. She has also helped us with recall, attentiveness and pulling. We are still training him and aren't fully there yet but we are well on the way! We couldn't have got to where we are now without Lynn

Very useful, more success so far than we might have hoped for !

Lynn was very helpful! In her first visit she addressed all our major concerns - teaching us a lot about our dog and how to train him - equipping us and giving us a training plan to stick to, which has brought about brilliant results in all areas!

Although Sharon tried her best with Dexter he is going to take a lot more time and patience for him to get what he is supposed to achieve...

Sharon has now visited Diesel and I 3 times, on her first visit I was impressed by her relaxed manner and relieved that she in no way appointed any blame onto myself or my dog for his behaviour problems (he shows nervous aggression toward other dogs). Sharon was here for 3 hours and in that time we discussed reasons for the behaviour and devised an action plan, we went out for a walk where she assessed Diesel and myself and assured me that he was not a 'bad' dog just scared. Since then diesel and I have progressed well although slowly, I know there is no quick fix to this problem. He is building up his confidence, as am I and we're really starting to see a marked improvement. I no longer dread taking him out as I know how to deal with situations as they arise. Sharon is always on hand via e mail to help with any queries between visits and is happy to listen to me if I feel that something is not quite working and we tweak the training until it does. I am extremely happy with and grateful for the help I'm having in getting 'my dog back'. Initially the price seemed expensive but when you consider that most trainers charge £30/hr for one to one and I have Sharon for a year if I need her I now realise that the price I paid is very reasonable.

Kevin was a lovely man,with a great sense of humour,and very easy to talk to,we felt relaxed straight away,with having him in our home.Then poor Kevin,met our dogs!! It was clear to see that he has a genuine feel for dogs,and alot of empathy for owners,as he began to take us through our paces,and it was more a case of myself and my husband being trained.The mistakes we have made,but not once were we made to feel lousy "parents"That terminology sums it up really!!Kevin was reassuring and patient,and was willing to work on anything with us and the dogs,which unfortunatly was most of the checklist on the website!We have a long way to go,but will stay focussed,and know that Kevin is on the end of a phone,should we need him.Thoroughly recomend Kevin as a light at the end of a tunnel,and already are seeing huge improvements,thank you.

Neil was very easy to relate to and was able to give logical exlpainations as to why Jessica had certain behavioural traits. Jessica has several issues that need to be addressed and Neil has shown me methods to help me manage them. Everything he said made sense. I noticed some improvement even during this first visit. I am now very optimistic that, in time, Jessica will be a much calmer and more tolerant dog.

Has been absolutely fantastic. Sharon has been a great help and Theo is like a different dog. He has stopped biting around food and is no longer aggressive. He walks beautifully and we are well on our way to walking him off the lead - something I wouldn't have even considered before. He's changed from a dog I was scared of to a lovely little puppy!

Kevin put us at ease, taking us through the theory and then the practical. Glad to say both us, and poppy found it easy. So far so good out on our own...

Sharon was very thorough with the assessment of Sally, although we are in the early stages of training we are seeing an improvement in Sally's behaviour which we are very pleased with. Having only had the one meeting and lesson with Sharon we feel after getting the professional advice and Sharon's knowledge and understanding of border collies Sally will be a better well behaved dog when Sharon has finished.

We found the training session very informative and helpful. Andy was very good at controlling Shadow and demonstrating and teaching us the same behaviours.

Gaining confidence when out and about. Change of diet recommended by Sharon. Wilson seems to be responding well as I feel more confident when other dogs are close by. I need to spend more time with Archie applying the techniques suggested.
