Bark Busters Reviews and Customer Testimonials
5th April 2014 - Graham Milgrew
Graham dealt with Barking, Chewing, Separation anxiety, Sibling rivalry
Jo spent 3 hours with us and identified problems I hadn't spotted, particularly with my older dog. Everything she told, and showed, me was excellent and made so much sense - I felt so much more relaxed when she left and my two dogs are getting on so much better with the instruction she gave me.
Trainer note from Graham
This owner got her new dog from Serbia. Street dogs generally make wonderful pets, but can take time to settle down to living in a home and understand what is expected of them. When an owner gets a new dog it totally natural to assume that any problems occurring are caused by the new dog, but it is very often a combination. The existing dog has to make just as many adjustments as the new dog and is just as capable of misbehaving! Knowing what to do is half the battle and I have every confidence that this owner will do a brilliant job with both her lovely dogs.

Dylan was a rescue dog and was our son and daughter in law's for 4 1/2 years. They now have a baby so we have taken over the care of Dylan. Dylan, although a lovely dog and very intelligent, barked at anything and everything and guarded anything he decided was his. The initial training worked well for a couple of weeks then began to slide. We asked for Neil to come round and he gave us a different method of training. Obviously, like people, dogs are all different and respond to different types of training. The training is working very well and Dylan is a much nicer dog to be with. He is far more relaxed and, generally, responds well to commands. We are now more in control and feeling good. We can see a light at the end of the tunnel thanks to Neil and Bark Busters.

Kevin dealt with Aggression, Barking, Chewing, Hyperactivity, Jumping up, Pulling, Recall
Kevin was not only fantastic at training our dog, he was also excellent at training us to enable her to be a well behaved, obedient and happy dog. We cannot recommend Kevin highly enough to anyone who is in need of an excellent dog behaviourist.

Lynn dealt with Puppy management
We came across Bark Busters in Google and after toying with local obedience classes or having the benefits of in-house training and support from Lynn at Bark Busters, decided to commit to her Puppy Management Programme. We have been absolutely delighted by the service and information we have received so far. Lynn initially spent over 3 hours with us and covered absolutely everything we need to know about raising and managing a puppy, and is subsequently available to talk to us or visit whenever we need her to for the next year. She is an incredibly passionate and well informed trainer and educator, and in no time had our puppy paying attention and responding. Within a few days I had another small issue I needed help with and Lynn was available within a few hours to offer advice. Hand on heart I honestly feel this has been the best decision we have made since getting a puppy - and we look forward to raising her into a well mannered and obedient member of the pack. If you're serious about having a dog and want to ensure that he or she fits in with you as opposed to you fitting in with him or her then I'd give Bark Busters a call.

The session was excellent and really helpful and inciteful. Everything was explained clearly and immediately a change in Barneys behaviour was apparent thanks to Lyn's support and techniques.
There is more work to be done and I'm confident that with Lyn's continued support,and advice we can help Barney get to the desired state and behaviours to help everyone enjoy our time .

Sharon was friendly and listened to all my concerns about daxter. She explained things thoroughly and in a way that was easy for me to understand. She was absolutely fantastic with daxter making him feel at ease. She showed me techniques to practice with daxter which I am pleased to say are starting to have a positive effect already. I am confident with continuous training using the techniques shown and with sharons support daxters problems can be resolved.
Trainer note from Sharon
Daxter is a lovely Yorkshire Terrier who is a little nervous, but his owner now has some techniques to use to help him and her become more confident and able to deal with the situations that they find stressful
