Dog Obedience Trainer & Behavioural Therapist

12th May 2008

  • Barking at people, dogs, animals, birds or where the dog barks for attention or at the slightest noise

Very pleased with my dogs progress, even after the first session. The therapist was very understanding and helpful.

  • Destructive chewing that results in destruction of furniture, woodwork etc
  • Jumping up at visitors or the dog jumps up at people on walks
  • Pulling on the Lead
  • Recall or not coming when called

Harley is a changed dog already. Noticed a difference after the first 3 hour visit. He does not pull on the lead and has stopped jumping up. Recall and chewing are still an issue but have had some good advice to work on.

  • Jumping up at visitors or the dog jumps up at people on walks
  • Pulling on the Lead

I'm very pleased that Teddy has been very good and the training has been going very well.

I will keep it up with my Teddy and I'm very happy he is well behaved towards the children and they love him to bits.

L.C., Littlehampton

Teddy is a lively pup who was starting to push some boundaries with his owner, eg barking in the garden - particularly when the children were on the trampoline! Things are now much quieter and his owner is back in charge.

8th April 2008

  • Aggression to a dog or other animal or where the dog is aggressive to the owner or a stranger
  • Jumping up at visitors or the dog jumps up at people on walks

I knew Stan (my border terrier) and I needed training before we ended up with an "ASBO" at our local park. Having never owned a pet, let alone a dog before I found myself slowly losing control. I had a dog that was jumping, barking and taking me on a walk.

Well Bark Busters and Kim have changed all that. Within the first hours of training Stanley was responding. Kim was very understanding and didn't make me feel like a bad owner for having an unruly dog. She has provided me with a greater understanding of his behaviour and the skills to correct it. He is now walking on the lead to heel, not jumping on visitors and slowly but surely behaving up the park.

I thank Kim for the new relationship Stan and I now have and it's only been three weeks. We know that we still have a long way to go but what a difference.

I would highly recommend Kim and Bark Busters for their friendly, professional and effective service.

  • Toileting

I was very pleased with the first training session. My dog responded very quickly and has already calmed down enormously. Thank you Kim! I really thought my puppy was a "lost cause". I now enjoy her more and more.

  • Barking at people, dogs, animals, birds or where the dog barks for attention or at the slightest noise

To be honest we were both very sceptical about having home dog training but Louis has responded so well to his training. Alterations to his diet combined with Kim's training has greatly improved Louis behaviour. We just want to say a big thank you.

S. & J. K., Burgess Hill

Louis is a lovely but lively Springer Spaniel. His owners have worked really hard on making sure he listens to them, and understands where he is in their "pack". The change in his diet has made a huge difference.

  • Aggression to a dog or other animal or where the dog is aggressive to the owner or a stranger
  • Barking at people, dogs, animals, birds or where the dog barks for attention or at the slightest noise
  • Pulling on the Lead

So far everything is going very well and I can't thank Kim enough for her help and advice. Sophie and me still have a long way to go, but with Kim for support I know we will get there. Thanks so much Kim.

Mrs C. G., Hailsham

Sophie is a young Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. Her owners have followed all the advice to the letter and the results have been fantastic!

  • Jumping up at visitors or the dog jumps up at people on walks
  • Recall or not coming when called

I was very impressed with Kim right from the start. She was calm, confident and capable and the sessions we had were always enjoyable as well as educational and effective. From the first session there was a great improvement, especially with my extrovert, excitable young dog who is rather vocal! The negative re-inforcement techniques are very welcome - I find most obedience classes fall short in that area - it is so important to make it clear to your dog that bad behaviour is not acceptable and it is so valuable to have strategies to control it. Very worthwhile. Thank you.

  • Recall or not coming when called

An excellent first visit. Kim was very thorough in finding out all about us as a family and, of course, Mabel our German Shepherd. The techniques we were shown have worked brilliantly. Mabel is much calmer with visitors already. We are looking forward to the next session. Thank you!

Z. W., Wisborough Green, West Sussex

Mabel is a gorgeous, eager to please German Shepherd. Her training has gone extremely well, and by the end of the second session she was walking to heel off lead. An owner who was totally committed to the training and the results speak for themselves!

6th February 2008

  • Recall or not coming when called
  • Separation Anxiety

Kim has made such a difference to our relationship with Bella. Kim has given us the confidence, and excellent training techniques to overcome Bella's issues. We would recommend Kim to anyone experiencing problems with their dog, she is so talented and has such a calming effect on an over-stressed owner!

D. G., Findon, West Sussex

Bella is a lovely Lhasa Apso, but had real issues with being left alone. Her owners can now go out without worrying, safe in the knowledge that Bella is fast asleep!
