Kevin dealt with Barking, Jumping up, Separation anxiety
We were all amazed how quickly the techniques worked. The dogs were subdued but well behaved following Kevin’s visit. We are continuing to apply the training and are hopeful our noisy household is transformed to calm and tranquility.

We have a pure blue Staffie called Grizzly. Our trainer "Kevin McDonnell" was extremely knowledgeable and easy to talk to. He provided comprehensive theory & practical exercises throughout our session. Kevin also brought his assistant a 40kg Doberman called Bruno. Suffice to say Bruno the Doberman was amazing with our Grizzly. The training was phenomenal. On the day we were immediately seeing successful results as we have learnt to communicate in more appropriate ways that our dog understands.. Grizzly responded superbly to the training. It was brilliant that the training took place in our local environment. We are two days into our new approach and things are going well. We are extremely hopeful and really believe in the changes. Looking forward to putting everything into practice and daily living. Thank you Kevin and Bruno PS the lifetime helpline is also a massive statement.

Wow!I knew Kevin was good but I was beginning to think my life with Bear would continue to be him controlling us. Kevin and Bruno were amazing. He actually got Bear to stop barking at everything and now we are confident to continue the training. Kevin has made our day. Early days yet with Bear as training was only today but such a difference. Thank you so much again.

Kevin dealt with Aggression, Pulling, Recall
wow wow wow, what more is there to say? I truly wouldn't go anywhere else for dog training. Kevin is a god wizard, plain and simple. I was corrected and given the proper techniques to take the leadership role off pickle's little shoulders and was given the tools to give him the good life that this little beauty deserves. Look nowhere else, this is the real deal. I actually would love to stay in contact with Kevin and even take my little pickle up on Dartmoor in the future to have a run around with his new friend.

Very pleased with the session and the advice, we have a different dog now, she seems happier and more affectionate. Instant results which has relieved our anxiety and hers.

We felt at ease as soon as Kevin arrived. His knowledge of dog behaviour was spot on, and we soon realised how we had been treating our dogs like humans instead of canines. We were sceptical anything could get our dog Shelby to stop barking, but we saw results almost immediately with the techniques Kevin showed us. We feel empowered and confident. We’ve gone from avoiding going anywhere where we might encounter other dogs, to now being keen to get out there and practice all we have learnt. Very grateful to Kevin for the time he spent with us and our dogs. This will be life changing for our family.

Kevin worked miracles. We had a very timid,scared fearful puppy of 5 months from Romania cross breed. We had him for 4 weeks and were at a loss on how to progress. The puppy did not want to be touched or come out his den.In just 1 session he turned him around completely, so much so we now have a different happy dog. We should have called on Kevin earlier. He literally saved us from returning him to the rescue. We highly recommend Kevin to anyone having behavioural issues with their dog. We will definitely call upon him later as our puppy progresses.

Kevin is so knowledgeable and patient!! Both us and the dogs learnt so much from Kevin and are forever in his debt for helping us with our dogs.

Wasn't sure what to expect but boy were we impressed. Kevin was extremely good. He spent the time listening to our issues & identifying the problems. Within 5 minutes of training we saw instant results. The four hours passed so quickly but afterwards we felt confident to carry on our own. As Kevin said " he was there to train us!! not the dog". We fully understand that we have to carry on practicing with the techniques shown . If anyone thinks that their situation is beyond help please get in touch with Kevin at Bark Busters. It will be life changing & you can start to really enjoy your dog.

I have been having issues with my Kelpador, who leaps to greet and can (from a standing start) jump over 6ft which is impressive but not acceptable. He also dislikes people in hats, tries to dominate some dogs (including dogs who are in their own homes & Merlin is the visitor. I didn't have the skills/understanding to be able to take control of my pack and have a dog that I am happy to take anywhere. Kevin is the nicest man, and very quickly understood Merlin. He explained to me how he was going to give me the tools to enable me to have a better relationship with my dog, one in which we are both happy and in the correct pecking order! The transformation, and it is that, is incredible. We (Merlin and I) have a bit of adjustment to get used to, but we are both going to be able to enjoy so much more together. I cannot recommend Kevin highly enough.
