Bark Busters Reviews and Customer Testimonials

- A.L, Plymouth (Testimonial)

12th February 2025 - Emma Barrett

Emma dealt with Aggression, Separation anxiety, Sibling rivalry

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.

10th February 2025 - Shauna Hoey

Shauna dealt with Recall, Other

We rescued Max in December 2024. He was born on the streets and when he came to us from rescue/foster, he was extremely timid. He also had no idea of recall. Taking him out for a walk was awful, his tail permanently tucked under him. Any traffic that went passed he shook. Any people in front or behind us, he panicked. We got as far as we could with him and there was slight improvement but we decided to get in touch with Bark Busters when we realised we couldn't do anymore to help him. Within 30 minutes of me emailing Bark Busters, a lady rung me to discuss Max's problems. She said that the person who was most suited to Max's needs, was a lady called Shauna and booked us in for a Training session. It's the best thing we could have done for Max. Shauna was great with him. She taught us how to help deal with his problems by showing us certain techniques and explained that it can take a while but with practice we would get there in the end. I would definately recommend Bark Busters to anyone that needs help with their dog.

10th February 2025 - Kirsty Dudfield

Kirsty dealt with Aggression, Jumping up, Recall

Kirsty has enabled us to have confidence that we can do what we set out to achieve (to give a permanent home to a 3 year old Rottweiler along with our existing dog). She listened in a non-judgemental way to the techniques we had been bumbling about trying! She enquired what we needed for our individual circumstances and enabled us to take control and be Peggy’s leader. She has already settled enormously and is accepting the new way of life. We have work to do on walks, but we realise that this will be an ongoing commitment on our part. Peggy is a happier dog (so is Doris) and we are much more confident.

- R.F, Solihull (Testimonial)

Trainer note from Kirsty
Thank you Rachel for the lovely review.  Peggy and Doris did so well with the new training techniques and you were great at delivering the new training. Keep up the good work and I look forward to hearing from you.

9th February 2025 - Sharon Chapman

Sharon dealt with Aggression, Hyperactivity, Jumping up, Pulling, Puppy management, Sibling rivalry, Other

Sharon was fabulous! She helped us with a number of issues with our two overexcited dogs and less than a week in, we are already seeing some improvements in their behaviour and manners. She spent a lot of time with each dog individually to observe their specific needs, as well as observing us to point out all the things we were doing that were counter productive and creating confusion for our dogs. The advice and lesson plan were really practical, very achievable, and it was great that she showed us how to do each command, game, routine to ensure we were doing them right. The amount of times we thought 'oh yes, that's obvious...now you've pointed it out' really brought home how our small actions were having huge impacts on our dogs. And we had lots of bad habits! We have now changed our dogs diets (they say thank you - they love it!), have a list of the new 'rules' and 'clear commands' pinned on the fridge (for us to read, not the dogs!), and have a daily training plan which is fun, easy to stick to and is seeing results. Things are still a work-in-progress, but I wish we'd brought Sharon in months ago. Highly recommend.

- j.m, Ruthin (Testimonial)

Trainer note from Sharon

Thank you so much for your kind words! It was a pleasure working with you all in your first session, and I’m so pleased to hear you’re already seeing positive changes. You’ve put in a fantastic effort, and I love that you’ve embraced the new routines—especially having the rules pinned on the fridge!

Training is a journey, and this is just the beginning. I’m really looking forward to seeing how things progress over the next sessions and helping you continue to build on this great start. Keep up the amazing work, and I’ll see you soon!

Shauna is an excellent trainer. Everything she says is easy to understand and I have already noticed an improvement in my dogs behaviour

26th January 2025 - Gina Williams

Gina dealt with Aggression, Barking, Hyperactivity, Jumping up, Separation anxiety, Other

I only wish that instead of buying copious amounts of toys, treats and beds when I first received my dog that I had found Barkbusters and bought the training right away. Gina has been absolutely brilliant. Very professional, very experienced, insightful, easy to understand and has already, after one session only, give me confidence and my home is much more relaxed. So far, no more being pinned down and feverishly licked, gone is the leg humping, I can now read and message friends in peace. Already things seem to be falling into place nicely with simple behavioural changes on my part. I’m very much looking forward to a more harmonious, happy and healthy relationship with my little dog. I am a first time dog owner and have already recommended Gina to 3 other dog owners.

- E.R, Cardiff (Testimonial)
