I found the whole experience of Steve's training methods very impressive and I've learnt how to deal with many different situations. Steve was very helpful and the three hours just passed in minutes it seemed. Thanks.

As the song goes... "What a difference a day makes!" Toby is now so much more obedient and therefore adorable! Thank you.

Steve was brilliant. We learnt a lot and the dog is happy and more relaxed.

21st November 2007

I was told by a dog trainer that I didn't deserve to have my dog because she wasn't fully trained and was refused help. My pup was just 15 weeks old and I was looking to get help with my training. This upset me and I lost my confidence in dog trainers. My dog is now 10 months old and Bark Busters have helped me with all aspects of training and I am more than happy with the results so far.

Within two hours my dog's barking in the garden had stopped. Three weeks later it has not returned. Steve was superb. I'm still working with the dog to cure some minor problems and have found that the techniques really work. Would recommend to anyone.

23rd October 2007

In one session, Steve explained why my dog was barking. It was a 'light bulb moment'. He is, after just one day, much more relaxed and hasn't barked! What more can I say. Thanks Bark Busters - money well spent!

Very impressed. Both dogs stopped barking at the doorbell. Behaviour towards other dogs improving all the time. Both dogs more settled and peaceful.

Steve proved to me that my dog is trainable and will respond to commands. He also made a very good sermon illustration!!

31st August 2007

I can't believe the difference in my dogs behaviour. I honestly didn't think I would be able to train him but with the help and advice I received he is brilliant now. I think he's enjoyed the training as much as I have. Thanks.

Steve has helped me address the problems I was having with my dog in full and also taught me how to control him in and out of the house. I no longer feel I have to fight with him to get him to respond to me - he is a pleasure to have now!
