7th October 2015 - Alex Fraser
Alex dealt with Hyperactivity, Jumping up
What a transformation... Before Alex came Ted was in total control of the house, attacking anyone that came around. I used to have keep him in a different room, which I hated because he used to cry. After only a couple of lessons the results where amazing he was no longer jumping up at friends or family and was just alround much more obedient with myself. I would fully recommend Alex to anyone with a troublesome pup!!!
Trainer note from Alex
Ted is a young Staffi, and boy was he a lively young dog. He used to have a habit of jumping up at people who entered his home and could easily remove somebody's glasses from their face or break a necklace. He certainly wasn't aggressive, but he could unnerve people with his jumping, and he had also start to bite people's clothing. Ted's Mum really was in need of some training but more importantly Ted needed a change of diet. Although the food he had been on for the past 12 months was a well known popular brand - it certainly wasn't doing him any favours!! Anyway, I am absolutely delighted in how much calmer Ted is, especially when he has visitors. No more jumping or mouthing and no more being shut away in other rooms. Well done to both Ted and his Mum. Keep up the good work!

Alex dealt with Pulling, Puppy management, Recall, Toileting
We contacted Bark Busters looking for some general puppy management with our new miniature schnauzer - we were keen to start off on the right foot and avoid getting into too many bad habits that we would need to correct later on. Alex has been great in helping us achieve that. He has been supportive, encouraging and given clear advice on any issue or question that has popped up. We have since moved on to lead training and are progressing well.
Peppa is a delight so far and part of that is down to the training advice we have been given by Alex.
We took out the one year option so also feel assured that should any issues crop up Alex will be on hand to help us navigate our way through them.
Trainer note from Alex
I always enjoy working with puppy's and their owners - especially first time owners as they are always keen to learn! Peppa is doing really well and her family have worked really hard to ensure she grows up to become a well behaved young lady. Although my work is almost done with Peppa, I would be happy to catch up with her in the future just to say hello and go for a nice walk.

Lee dealt with Barking, Hyperactivity, Jumping up
Lee's first visit went really well, our dog's responded very quick to commands given. He explained to us in a way that was easy to follow and understand. Looking forward to our next visit from Lee. Would definitely recommend Bark Busters . :)
3rd October 2015 - Andy Waterhouse
Andy dealt with Chewing, Jumping up, Pulling, Recall
The training was simple yet highly effective. We have already seen improvements in behaviour after 5 days. Dietary advice was a real eye opener, having switched to the natural feeding Tippus is a lot calmer and loves his meals. The session was enjoyable for both of us and Tippus. Andy made sure we discussed and worked on all the behaviours we needed help with. We would thoroughly recommend Andy!

30th September 2015 - Graham Milgrew
Graham dealt with Aggression, Pulling, Other
It is clear that Jo knows Dogs. She gives excellent advice about the problems and answers all questions as they arise. This makes me feel more confident dealing with Clyde's respective problems. The guidelines are clear and easy to follow

Graham dealt with Jumping up, Pulling, Recall
Graham was very helpful and understood our issues. He was very clear in the training and took time to show me what I needed to do.
29th September 2015 - Angela Young
Remote Training Team dealt with Puppy management
Had a lovely session with Angela, she was very experienced and made me feel really relaxed and pointed me in the right direction with all the training needed, and made it fun as well.
Trainer note from Remote Training Team
It was lovely to work with the Bedlington Terrier puppies, who are very bright and full of fun. Their owners wanted to start off with them on the right track as they want their new pups to fit in with their family without any behavioural issues. The boys are very quick learners and their lovely Mum did a great job on their first puppy management session. I'm sure they will make great progress over the coming weeks and I'm looking forward to my next visit. Thanks for choosing Bark Busters to help you train your puppies.

29th September 2015 - Alex Fraser
Alex dealt with Aggression, Jumping up, Pulling, Separation anxiety, Sibling rivalry
A fantastic first lesson, really thought my dog was beyond help and he's 11 months old but back to school for me, what an eye opener all I'd been doing with him was wrong. Alex showed us the right way and straight away we noticed a big difference with him. Alex explains everything in terms you can understand, it's so easy but you do have to put the time and effort in otherwise it's a waste. I would say to anyone who has concerns to contact Alex, we have had dog trainers before and not one of them inspired confidence yet Alex does and most of all it's great to see my dog is happy again and not in so much trouble!!!!
Trainer note from Alex
Our training is all about training the owner to train their dog as it is important that the dog listens to them once I have left their home. The first session went really well and her dog showed a big improvement after just 3 hours. I have since been back to see them again and was delighted with the results. This time we focused on walking to heel. He did really well and I am confident that by the next time I visit he will be walking at her side and not pulling. Keep up the good work.

Lee dealt with Barking, Pulling
Following on from Lee's first session I have been implementing everything I was shown and so far I have excellent results. Tia is a changed dog practically from the word go. I am so pleased to be able to take her for a walk and know when we meet other dogs she will behave. Thank you!

Lee dealt with Aggression, Jumping up, Pulling
I've had a few training sessions so far with Lee and I'm really pleased with the advice given and techniques recommended. I noticed a difference straight away and can now see a way forward to resolve my rescue dogs confidence and dog aggression issues aswell as helping me to walk her to heal on the lead.
I would recommend to anyone who is struggling with training because with the best of intentions there is only so much we can do on our own...it really is worth the money and commitment to make you and your dog happier.
