Sharon dealt with Barking, Hyperactivity, Puppy management, Other

The first training session was excellent, I envisaged that this would be good after reading Sharon’s client reviews and I was not disappointed. The help, advice and information I received was extremely helpful and so far all the training methods are working extremely well.It is comforting to know that help and advice is available whenever needed.

28th August 2020 - Kevin McDonnell

Kevin dealt with Aggression, Barking, Chewing, Digging, Jumping up, Pulling, Recall

Wow Kevin came and spent the morning with us as we needed help with our 8 month old Cockapoo. The transformation in our dog is unbelievable he is like a completely different dog, we feel so much happier and relaxed knowing we have the confidence to handle any situation going forward with Reggie. Best decision we made contacting Kevin we were at our wits end and didn't know which way to turn with him! Kevin is brilliant very calm and explained the process very clearly.

28th August 2020 - Alex Fraser

Alex dealt with Barking, Chewing, Puppy management, Sibling rivalry, Toileting

We contacted Alex very soon after bringing our second puppy, Betty, home having had Wilf for 5 weeks. We were struggling with how they interacted, play that looked nothing like play to us and appeared rough and aggressive. Alex was friendly and easy to talk to, and we felt he understood our concerns from the start of our conversation. He demonstrated techniques to correct unwanted behaviour and gave us lots of information to help us understand the interaction between ourselves and our puppies and how we have been responding to them rather than them responding to us. He also spoke about the importance of enough sleep and about different food options. We have now had the opportunity to put in place the suggestions discussed and although it's not the miracle we hoped for, we are seeing a definite change in the right direction. Before Alex's visit we had seriously considered finding a new home for one of our puppies which we would have found heartbreaking, so I cannot express too strongly the difference he has made to life with our two puppies although it's obviously still a work in progress

- -.C, Ramsbottom, Greater Manchester (Testimonial)

Trainer note from Alex

Really enjoyed this session and I had a little bit if dog envy - I could have happily taken Betty and Wilf home - but four dogs would be a bit much. With puppies it’s so important to get the foundation right. The correct amount of good quality food (puppies need a bigger percentage con relationship to their body weight compared to that of an adult), lots and lots of sleep, some simple ground rules, and attempting to be a bit more aloof (which is the difficult bit). There is no real quick fix with training a puppy, but with patience and the right techniques, owners will get their in the end. Both dogs did really well. Keep up the good work.

27th August 2020 - Neil Price

Neil dealt with Aggression, Barking, Chewing, Hyperactivity, Jumping up, Pulling, Recall, Separation anxiety

Buddy is very nervous around new people and we were very worried about how he would react to Neil but Neil did great at calming us down and knew exactly what to do with Buddy. Although Neil has not successfully made contact with him yet it is clear he will do a thorough process to avoid overwhelming Buddy. We discussed our wishlist with him and Neil had an answer to all! As it has only been one session there aren't many improvements just yet but i know if we listen to our trainer and put the work in, Buddy will be an all-round good boy.

26th August 2020 - Emma Barrett

Emma dealt with Barking, Hyperactivity, Pulling, Recall, Separation anxiety

Excellent start! Emma was considerate of our needs, non judgmental and thorough, offering practical, example led advice and strategies. By the end of today's session we had made considerable progress. I was thrilled with the outcome and this is after only one session. Even our neighbors came out to comment on the improvement and requested details. Can't wait to continue working with our Daxies and the lovely Emma.

- -.K, Nuneaton, Warwickshire (Testimonial)

Trainer note from Emma

It was lovely to meet you all, i was so pleased about the results achieved so quickly. Walking a dog should be a joy and not a stressful experience and we achieved that today !
Thanks so much for the review.

Training for our dogs was excellent giving some instant results and plenty of verbal and written instruction to remind us of what to work on with our dogs

19th August 2020 - Gavin Chambers

Gavin dealt with Aggression, Barking

Gavin was amazing! He took the time to explain to us why Jesse may be showing this behaviour and what steps we need to take to correct this. Within a matter of hours we saw an improvement in Jesse's behaviour and a week on from the first training session she is improving day by day.

19th August 2020 - Graham Milgrew

Graham dealt with Puppy management, Recall

Have had one zoom call first and then a visit where Jo brought her dog for my dog to have a play date to see her reaction to other dogs and practice lead training.

- -.S, Bexleyheath, Kent (Testimonial)

Trainer note from Graham
This owner had a Romanian rescue and had been instructed by her rescue not to take her dog out for walks as they thought she was overwhelmed by seeing dogs and people outside.  Her owners were also scared that she would escape their garden as she had a history of escaping so had been taking her onlead in the garden and were worried she would slip her lead outside.  I was able to get her off lead in the garden and practice getting her back to the family which she was really good at.  It proved that she pretty good with other dogs and her problem was she wasn't used to being outside on a lead which is why she was overwhelmed. For safety she was attached to two leads.  One on her collar and one on her harness.  Graham has since done a further lead walking session so she can be managed on the lead when pulling and they are doing really well with her.

18th August 2020 - Alex Fraser

Alex dealt with Barking, Chewing, Digging, Jumping up, Pulling, Recall, Separation anxiety, Other

Alex came to help us with our GSD pup. Alex explained to us that our pup had been training us for the last 10 months. With all the information and techniques that he demonstrated and explained we have already noticed a change after such a short time. Will continue to use these techniques and look forward to working with Alex again.

- -.A, Cheadle, Cheshire (Testimonial)

Trainer note from Alex

Really enjoyed meeting their very large puppy / teenage GSD. Due to it being a really hot day when we did the first session we were unable to do much outside work, however as they chose an option with further support, we will focus on lead work next time we meet. He did really well on his first training session, and I’m so pleased to hear they are already seeing an improvement. Looking forward to catching up in a few weeks. 

17th August 2020 - Kevin McDonnell

Kevin dealt with Aggression, Barking, Pulling, Recall

Kevin was excellent, very friendly and professional, positive from the outset, he used a great common sense approach and literallly changed Archie's attitude within the first couple of exercises, we would recommend barkbusters 100% if u would just like a more obedient dog, Archie is a well behaved family pet but we needed educating in how to control him rather than the other way around, you don't realise how much your dog controls you until it is pointed out. We definitely learned a lot and thank Kevin for his patience and guidance and it's great to know he's on the end of the phone if you need any advice in the future. Well worth the money, thanks Kevin
