Bark Busters Reviews and Customer Testimonials

23rd January 2023 - Alex Fraser

Alex dealt with Aggression, Barking, Chewing, Other

We desperately needed some help with our Rescue Dog Gillie everyone that entered the house was subject to very aggressive / intimidating barking especially my brother. We had Gillie in another room as advised and introduced her to Alex again very aggressive approach. By the end of our session Gillie was asleep on Alexs' feet. Alex taught us with that control verbally is what a dog needs no shouting pulling etc and lots and lots training tires the dog mentally as they need this challenge on a daily basis. "BAH" affords you some control in the house. Gillie still has a long way to go as she was a street dog so has known no boundaries or experienced any early socialising skills. Within a week with lots of training around door manners my brother was able to come in and watch football with my partner with a nice relaxing beer and a relaxed dog on his feet ......... nothing short of miraculous!!! We have a lot of walking / park issues to resolve so need to keep going. I do feel that rescue centres should work hand in hand with Bark Busters before rescue dogs are released to peoples homes - better experience for the rehomed dog and their new owners! Alex is unbelievable ..... Actual Dog Whisperer ............ only down side is he wasn't able to move in with us lol!!! I think the 12 months is a must and would highly recommend Alex to anyone with a new dog as teaching them well now will hopefully reap rewards for you and them later.

Trainer note from Alex
Over the last 3 years I have worked with a lot of foreign rescue dogs, some from a street background and some from a domesticated background. In the main they all tend to be far more nervous than the average UK rescue dog. But this doesn’t mean that we can’t help them adjust to their new home and teach them that they no longer have to worry and that their owners are going to keep them safe. This session went better than I could have hoped and Im delighted with how well she has done following the initial session. Im looking forward to catching up with them next week.

13th January 2023 - Kevin McDonnell

Kevin dealt with Barking, Jumping up, Pulling, Recall

Wow!I knew Kevin was good but I was beginning to think my life with Bear would continue to be him controlling us. Kevin and Bruno were amazing. He actually got Bear to stop barking at everything and now we are confident to continue the training. Kevin has made our day. Early days yet with Bear as training was only today but such a difference. Thank you so much again.

10th January 2023 - Alex Fraser

Alex dealt with Jumping up, Pulling

Alex was great!!! What a pro. He has enabled us to better manage our furry beast (50kg’s of muscle) with simple and straightforward commands and body language. We know it’s often the humans that need the training not the dogs so we’re incredibly grateful to Alex for not making us feel tooooo daft 😂 It was a great session and the results are starting to show only a week later. We’ve still got lots of work to do but with Alex’s support over the next 12 months we know we’ll get there. Thanks Alex 🐾🐾

- C.P, Urmston (Testimonial)

Trainer note from Alex
Really enjoyed this session. Initially I wasn’t sure how much we would be able to get done as its important that the training is taken at the dogs pace and not then owners, and to start with he was quite excitable and mouthy. But he quickly started to listen and I really was pleasantly surprised with how well he did - especially inside the home. There is no quick fix or magic wand, but with some consistency ands the correct techniques, I am confident he will grow up to be a well behave boy. Can’t wait to catch up with them all soon.

4th January 2023 - Estelle Jackson

Estelle dealt with Barking, Chewing, Hyperactivity, Jumping up, Pulling, Recall

We have just completed one years training with Estelle and I cannot believe the difference she has made. Our Sprocker, Bertie was an 11 month old, over excited attention seeking show off whose behaviour was unmanageable and I despaired of ever training him. We contacted Estelle out of sheer desperation . Bertie jumped, mouthed, stole anything he could get hold off , had temper tantrums and wouldn't walk properly on a lead or recall. Estelle very quickly told us what we were doing wrong and although it was hard to hear we knew she was right. She then gave us lots of advice which we followed, backed up by visits to monitor his progress. We quickly saw an improvement in Bertie . It's been hard work and has required a lot of patience, persistence and consistency, but everyone has noticed how much better behaved he now is. He still has his moments but we feel much better able to manage him and he is turned into a loving companion rather than being 'dynamite on four legs ' I cannot thank Estelle enough for how she has helped us and would have no hesitation in recommending her.

Liz was very friendly and made the difficulties we having with Bramble easy to understand. Her training methods have been simple to follow and thankfully so far successful. We have some way to go but can now see light at the end of the tunnel.

Lee dealt with Aggression, Jumping up

All I can say is how brilliant Lee was with us. He's visited us & Red twice in the last 4 weeks & everything he has shown/told us to do makes sense & we are following his instructions. So far so good, still lots of work to do but already making a massive difference to our lives.
