Reviews & Testimonials For Sharon Chapman

Sharon is lovely. I was nervous expecting to be criticised, held to blame in some way. She was calming, reassuring and professional. Explained things in a way I could relate to. Set some exercises in place which we practised. Took us for a walk to observe his fear with other dogs. Advised afterwards. Left us feeling calm and in control. Now awaiting her second visit which she mentioned bringing one of her dogs along to introduce a positive experience for him.

The training was taken step by step giving confidence both with myself and my dog. It was also enjoyable.

Sharon is very calm when instructing me with Ruby. She explained the training techniques very well.

The advise I received from Sharon was very positive and helpful. I realise that I am to ready to tell the dog off and not giving enough praise.

Our first session with Sharon went very well, we are hopefully that we can improve some of the issues we are seeing with Indie. Sharon knows her stuff and is giving us confidence when out and about walking with Indie

We are very pleased by the assistance given to us by Sharon, we can not thank her enough for what we have experienced and learnt to date, it's excellent. We were amazed at the training Sharon took us through as we could see by Bobby's face it was having an impact on him. It was fantastic to see Bobby responding so positively to Sharon, it also gave us both confidence, and we had lost a lot of confidence with Bobby snapping at us. We have also evolved along with Bobby in the training and I believe my husband and I now understand a lot more than we did. Bobby is going 'great guns', he actually enjoys his training and appears to be a much happier dog, he looks and acts happier. We don't always do it right or catch Bobby quick enough but as Sharon told us, sometimes the moment is lost but not to worry about it. My husband, me and out Bobby dog are now a much happier trio, trust is much better on all parts, it's a pleasure to see Bobby growing in confidence and enjoying himself more. We work on Bobby on a daily basis and whatever we do during the day we still carry on training, just re-enforcing everything we have been taught.

After a few bad experiences as a pup Dexter has become fearful of strangers and new situations. He is lead reactive when out and reacts to most noises at home. Everything Sharon said made sense and Dexter relaxed a lot more quickly in her company than anyone elses. Freyja has always been a shy pup, but she has started to growl and bark at visitors. Since the visit, both dogs have improved considerably and I'm sure we will continue to see more of an improvement as time goes on. I would thoroughly recommend Bark Busters to anyone.

It's not just about training your dog - it's about training the owner as well. I have received an excellent programme of training and Lulu has responded very well. We now have a calmer and more controlled environment in our home!

It is early days as yet for Lucas but he has started to respond very well, barking is a lot better, pulling on the lead needs a bit more work. His recall is very good so long as there is not a lot of distractions. But there are signs of improvement
