Fast and effective results of every breed and every behaviour problem

I've successfully helped dog owners with:

  • Severe aggression and reactivity to people and other animals
  • Separation anxiety and destructive behaviours
  • Resource guarding and food aggression
  • Excessive barking
  • Sibling rivalry
  • Lead walking and recall problems
  • Jumping up or hyperactivity
  • Adults and puppies of every breed from Chihuahuas to German Shepherds
    and more... 

Why Waiting Creates Bigger Problems

Each day that your dog's behaviour continues, they become more ingrained - just like our own human habits. Your dog isn't "naughty", they are confused and trying to communicate their needs in a way that we humans don't understand. Without the right guidance these issues won't simply disappear. They'll likely intensify, straining your relationship and breaking the bond you share.

But what if my dog is a hopeless case?

Stop right there. There's no such thing as a hopeless case - only miscommunication between the dogs and their owners.

I've successfully transformed "problem dogs" other trainers gave up on. Whether your dog is 12 weeks old or 12 years old, whether they're a tiny terrier or powerful mastiff, the right home dog training approach can work for you.

Your dog wants to be good. They just need you to speak their language.

New puppy? I provide home puppy training classes

If you are looking for puppy training classes near you in Coventry, then why not consider my home training. Group training classes can be very stressful for your pup and if they become disruptive in the classes you can often be asked to leave. My lessons are informative and provides puppies with the very best start in life.

My home puppy classes cover topics such as:

  • Best toileting habits
  • Appropriate feeding and good food manners
  • Recall - coming when called
  • Gate and door control
  • Sit, stay and down training
  • Correct holding of the lead and walking
  • Walking to heel
  • Distance control (staying with you when there are other distractions)
  • How to successfully socialise your puppy
  • How to de-sensitise, for example, vacuum cleaners and car travel etc…
  • Protecting your puppy from being overwhelmed by people or other dogs
  • Accustoming to handling, bathing and grooming
  • Bad behaviour prevention and management, e.g. jumping up, mouthing, play biting and chewing etc…
    and more...

Bark Busters Dog Training Coventry

 

About Me

I have owned dogs for 30 years and am a mother of two wonderful grown-up daughters. I certainly know about the challenges of juggling the needs of children and dogs!

For a period of time, I was a dog groomer and during this time I realised how many dog owners struggled with their dog's behaviour problems, so I started to give training tips and advice. I soon realised that my future was as a dog trainer, so I moved out of grooming, and became a Bark Busters dog behaviour therapist and trainer, although I continue to groom my own dogs and family members dogs too.

Being a Bark Busters trainer is very rewarding, and in particular, the more challenging cases. I have had the privilege of helping hundreds of dog owners who were finding their dogs behaviour so challenging that they were considering rehoming or even euthanasia.

I love being able to assist with these cases enabling owners and their dogs to live in harmony together. There is no behaviour too difficult.

 

My Reviews and Testimonials 

Take a look at my Trustpilot reviews and my client testimonials from dog owners I have helped in Coventry.

 

"Emma presented as a warm and knowledgeable professional and was able to identify my pup as needy and anxious. Emma warned us that she may tell us things that may make us uncomfortable but honesty is important to help our pup. Essentially we have not given him the pack leadership he needs and he is the leader. I am so grateful for the techniques Emma has given us and already I can see changes that were needed in his behaviour. Emma sent written feedback of her time with us, alongside 13 worksheets on different training topics. I look forward to our next session."

Leanne
Trainer: Emma Barrett

"Emma was very polite, she talked us through how we should train Freddie to help with his barking. Emma was here for 2 hours and by the time she left Freddie had calmed his barking. So far the training is working really well, knowing Emma is only a phone call away is reassuring. We would definitely recommend using Emma if you need help with your dog."

Paul
Trainer: Emma Barrett

"Emma is excellent"

Jean
Trainer: Emma Barrett

"Emma came to us a month ago when our 2 dogs were fighting multiple times a day. We were having to separate them at all times and they couldn’t be trusted outside of their crates together. We were really worried we were going to have to rehome one of them, but with the training Emma put in place we really have noticed a difference. She taught us how to deal with when our dogs are misbehaving and told us about passive leadership and how to combat it. In the space of a month we’ve went from not being able to have our dogs in the same room to our dogs sleeping on the same bed and playing together. Emma’s guidance and the consistent training has massively improved our relationship with our dogs and, carrying on with the training, we can’t wait to see them grow even more! A big thank you to Emma, she is absolutely fantastic and we would highly recommend."

Becky
Trainer: Emma Barrett

"

Emma was amazing. She explained everything about how dog's communicate and how we as humans need to communicate to our dog. She showed us how to put Murphy in his new harness and have him walk at our side. She then gave us effective measures to control when he deviated from our side. Murphy is progressing nicely. His obedience on walks is about 75% better than preciously.

Tim
Trainer: Emma Barrett

"One week in after our initial assessment with Emma and improvements are certainly visible with our two spaniels, although we are fully aware we still have a way to go. We contacted Bark Busters for help with barking, rivalry with our spaniels, separation anxiety and recall off lead. Emma was highly informative and precise with advice given and it was noticeably clear that she has a lot of knowledge within this field. We could not believe that the three techniques she was to share with us would show results instantly. Advise was also given around food and the benefits of ‘raw’ feeding compared to dry. We have since introduced raw food to the diet (weaning from dry) and already they seem more satisfied and calmer. The 3hour initial assessment seemed to pass quickly but Emma was quick to reassure that she is contactable as and when needed. Here’s to the next session."

Jackie
Trainer: Emma Barrett

"We were a bit sceptical at first but could not believe the difference within 2 hours of meeting Emma, we had the tools to change Micas behaviour. It was like we had a completely different dog. We are continuing Micas training and have seen a marked improvement in her behaviour and for this we cannot thank Emma enough."

Marie
Trainer: Emma Barrett

"Our whippet was reactive to other dogs and pulled on the lead - nothing we had tried had any success. We contacted Emma at Bark Busters to see if she could help. Emma reassured us that the training didn't use any harsh methods but neither did it use treats, which did leave us wondering a bit how it was going to work! Emma took a full history and listened carefully to the issues we had before even meeting our dog. She then explained the framework which would help our dog to understand what she had to do, and us to be better at responding in difficult situations. Emma left us with some exercises to practice and a plan of how to proceed, explaining that it is not an instant cure but that over time, our dog would improve. This took the pressure off us so we didn't feel we had to get it right straightaway. However, to our surprise, even the first exercises produced a noticeable difference in our dog's behaviour. We built up slowly as advised and she continued to improve. On about 2 or 3 occasions, we got "stuck" at a particular point when our dog seemed to reach a plateau and we couldn't work out how to progress. On each occasion, Emma was able to offer advice with a phone call, email or a visit which enabled us to get over that hump and to keep moving forwards. Just over six months on, and our dog is completely different. She walks calmly, she listens to us and no longer barks furiously at every dog she sees. We still have to pay attention, but we can now interpret her body language and intervene to stop any unwanted behaviour before it starts. Out dog is generally more relaxed and confident around other dogs when off lead, too. We couldn't be more pleased with her progress and are very grateful to Emma for all her advice and support. And there really were no treats required!"

"Emma demonstrates remarkable expertise in dog training. She has provided clear instructions and tailored the training sessions to meet the unique needs of Harley. One of the standout aspects of Emma's training is her personalized approach. She took the time to understand Harley's specific issues and has tailored the sessions to address these effectively. The individualized attention ensured that we are seeing noticeable improvements quickly. I highly recommend Emma to anyone seeking a professional, knowledgeable, and compassionate dog trainer. Her dedication and expertise have made a profound difference so far and we look forward to working with her on further sessions to ensure we have a happy dog and happy pawents."

Sarah
Trainer: Emma Barrett

"Emma was absolutely brilliant after the first 3 hour lesson my dog was totally transformed. Emma came again today to give me lead training & within half an hour Scout was walking to heel. There's still a long way to go but with Emma's help I'm 100% sure we will get there. I can highly recommend her."
