Bark Busters Reviews and Customer Testimonials

The first session covered a huge amount which we found hard to absorb. This may well be due to our ages (60's and 70's) and not due to Jo's explanations which were very thorough. We obviously take longer to get things on board these days. We have been practicing what we were taught and our friend said it took her 6 months to teach her dog what we have managed with Jeeves in a few weeks. Our second session gave us more help and practice so that we know what to do in difficult situations and we are much more confident now.

Lee was great, really calm and instantly made a change to Jacks behaviour. Kicking myself I didn't call a year ago!

Kevin was extremely clear, he took us through our paces and we were astonished how quickly Molly responded. Left to our own devices we are achieving a 90% success rate with her and aim to make that 100%. It is very reassuring we can always call if we need more support. Kevin was great fun and we enjoyed our session. I have a feeling Molly is probably not quite as keen but with her improvement life will be a lot less stressful. A huge THANK YOU.

After just one session we noticed a considerable difference in Alfie's attitude. In fact he seemed quite happy.He seems alot more relaxed in the house and calmer in general. I'm very pleased with things so far and hopefully with a bit more work things will improve even more thanks to kevin.

Lee was very knowledgeable and put us at ease. His suggestions were practical and allowed us to feel more confident in the situations with Wilf that were causing us concern. Thank you.

Kevin gave a really clear description of the method of training used ,and why it is effective. The presentation was excellent and very informative. His control and confidence with our dogs was excellent, as was his demonstration of the techniques used. I am determined to make this work for Luca and Meg , as this will make our relationship with them much more positive and rewarding for both dogs and humans. Thank you very much Kevin, you have enabled me to see a way forward for us into the future.

Andy has worked wonders. Minnie is an eight month old Cavachon and is very timid by nature to the point that she would not want to go out on the lead for walks. Although still slightly unsure, Minnie has become a more confident dog and I have become a more confident owner. I also changed her diet to a raw food diet which has made her more relaxed and calm. I have worked with Andy on two sessions now and each time he works a miracle. Thank you Andy.

Excellent training and advice given by Lee,he was very patient and kind and explained things well

Lee explained everything very well and I could not believe the results straight away, there was improvement in both my dogs behaviour within an hour of lee entering our home. I have been set a very clear training programme and we are progressing well so far.

We met Alex prior to our first session so we could get to know him, after all it is us who need the training not Dex! Alex was warm,firm and friendly.Dex responded well immediately. He is stubborn (Dex not Alex) and as Alex put it...he has trained us well in the 2 years we have had him. He is doing great with going through doors,not pulling on the lead unless he is going to his fave places, then he simply cannot wait to get there. He is slowly realising that we are in control. I am really looking forward to our next visit this Saturday to see how we have progressed. Still some work to do but positive we will get there.

Excellent, helpful, Kevin was really approachable and Ted has changed already. Training instructions sensible and easy to follow. We feel reassured and more relaxed.

I consider myself to be fairly knowledgeable about canine behaviour as I have worked in Veterinary Practice for over 20 years but when Murphy started to act aggressively towards other people's pets. I was at a complete loss. Having tried other cheaper behaviourists and got nowhere, I contacted Lynn Prentice as she had been recommended to me by other staff at my Practice. Lynn arrived on time, assessed Murphy and over the next few hours very tactfully assessed all the mistakes I have been making. When pointed out, I became extremely aware of all the things I had been doing to make Murphy feel the need to protect me as I had unwillingly put him in charge. At no time did Lynn ever make me feel bad or embarrassed even though if the truth be told, I should have know better! Lynn suggested many small things I could do to put me back as Pack Leader and within only 2 weeks, the difference in Murphy has been astounding. He obedience level has improved 100 fold and not once, has he shown even the slightest sign of being uncomfortable/aggressive to any other animal. As someone who see's many "professional" behaviourists within my work environment, I can say, hand on heart, try Lynn first as you will not need to go anywhere else. Sometimes, you really do get what you pay for.
