Bark Busters Reviews and Customer Testimonials

15th October 2021 - Alex Fraser

Alex dealt with Barking, Hyperactivity

Alex was extremely approachable and picked up on our requirements very quickly . He demonstrated thoroughly helpful techniques to help control Sophie's excitement . It was very useful for us to model these techniques with Alex and refine them . We saw immediately a good response from our dog . We will continue to practise with Sophie and feel much happier that we will now see success .

Trainer note from Alex
“You can teach an old dog new tricks” and Sophie is a good example of this! She gets extremely excited when anybody came to their home, but with some simple techniques to follow, by the end of the first session, she was doing so much better. I’m really pleased with how the session went.

1st September 2021 - Alex Fraser

Alex dealt with Jumping up, Pulling, Puppy management, Recall, Separation anxiety

What a wonderful experience! Having purchased both Eric and Ernie during lockdown we were all too aware of the lack of socialisation skills and etiquette the puppies have had the opportunity to experience, and had witnessed first hand the distress of separation anxiety having been with them 24 - 7 then returning to work. After our first session with Alex we were absolutely delighted with the results. Alex was informative, and very intuitive to both puppy’s current skills levels and capacity to learn (our pups are 11 months and 3 months old, and different breeds) Alex is so knowledgeable and inspires confidence. I’m delighted to say we’re proud and astounded by the progress made in our first session and are excited for the next! Thank you Alex!

Trainer note from Alex
Really enjoyed this session and both the young dogs did really well. Can’t wait to catch up with them all in a few weeks and do more outside work. Keep up the good work

Alex dealt with Barking, Pulling, Puppy management, Recall

As Alfie is our first ever dog, I felt I needed training and Alex made me feel at ease and not at all stupid. He gave me simple and easy to follow instructions. One month down the line Alfie is getting a lot better (bar his 6 month adolescent tantrums when he doesn't want to listen on occasions lol). More importantly Alfie is at ease with Alex. I would recommend Alex

Trainer note from Alex
It’s been a year of puppies - some first time puppy owners, some experienced dog owners, but regardless of experience, all puppies can have their challenges. We are never going to fully train a puppy or its owner on one session, but with ongoing support we can make them the best version of them selves which is extremely rewarding!

Alex was great with Max and was really helpful with the problems we had.he gave us some really good techniques to use and we have already seen positive progress. Thanks again, would definitely recommend Alex and BarkBusters.

Trainer note from Alex
I really enjoyed this session and I was delighted with how well behave Max was both inside and on his walk. Sometimes it is just a matter of fine tuning the owners skills. Keep up the good work!!

10th July 2021 - Alex Fraser

Alex dealt with Jumping up, Puppy management, Separation anxiety

Alex is absolutely brilliant! He's was so helpful and clear and Maggie absolutely loved him. He taught us so much and the skills we've learnt are already starting to work on Maggie just a day later. We would 100% recommend him to any dog owner, he's great

- -.C, Manchester, Lancashire (Testimonial)

Trainer note from Alex
I’ve met a lot of puppies over the past 12 months ranging from 8 weeks to 8 months. I really enjoy working with puppies, but they are not always easy, and not for the faint hearted!! But with time, effort and consistency, we always get results in the end. Maggie did really well as I’m confident she will grow up to be a well behaved adult.

- -.K, Manchester, Greater Manchester (Testimonial)

Trainer note from Alex
Its often easier for me to make a dog listen as they haven’t spent time training me, but they have spent time training their owners. The session went really well and I can’t wait to catch up with them all soon

30th May 2021 - Alex Fraser

Alex dealt with Barking, Jumping up, Pulling

The session was great! I must admit, I had been a little apprehensive - after a year of shielding and a very clingy dog, I wasn't sure what to expect. Alex put us at ease straight away, and was supportive and informative. Betty responded really well (once she got over her initial grumble!), and we have lots of useful info to take away and be practicing. We wanted to help Betty be the best she could be, and we're certainly getting there (she's a super clever dog, it was us that needed training!). Would definitely recommend to others!

23rd May 2021 - Alex Fraser

Alex dealt with Aggression

I contacted Alex by phone, dog training was very new to me and wasn't even really sure what I was asking for.. from the moment Alex answered the phone, he explained things in a way I could understand and also made me feel alot calmer about everything. My dog got bitten by another dog in the park and since then has turned aggressive towards other animals. I was so worried about what to do for the best as everything I had tried failed. Alex came to my house and was great with my dog.. by he taught me so many things I was unaware of, and helped me learn to handle situations differently.. we have only had our first 1 hour training session and I am already noticing such a big difference in him! I would recommend Alex 100%.

Alex dealt with Aggression, Barking, Pulling, Separation anxiety

My dogs are adult. They had several issues as hyperactivity, separation anxiety, aggressive behaviour/pulling during our walks.I never considered to ask a trainer for an help. Alex was very friendly and attentive. My dogs loved him at the first sight! On our first lesson I was impressed. My dogs responded very well within minutes. They started to listen to me and they stop pulling me during our walks. I' m keep on doing the exercises suggested by my trainer. I can see little improvement day by day. I definitely recommend  this service!

Trainer note from Alex
Even those customers who tell me their dog is not the smartest tend to have a different opinion by the end of the initial session and realise that the dog has been training them rather than the other way round. My job is definitely people training, not dog training.
