Bark Busters Reviews and Customer Testimonials

4th November 2014 - Alex Fraser

Alex dealt with Aggression, Pulling, Other

After one session my dog was responding to what we had been taught by Alex. His aggression is only towards some other dogs, however he is muzzled at this stage, which we have not dealt with as yet. However the fact of his pulling when we were out walking was dealt with in the first session and he is definitely responding. Also he had been running up the stairs and going into rooms before me which was not ideal but now I can get him to wait most of the time which is a vast improvement after just one session, I do practice every day although not always everything I was shown every day. He is not happy in the car and Alex did suggest just taking him in the car for a short while to get him used to it but so far we've not tried this yet but we will be doing this. I do feel I have peace of mind as I have taken life time cover for Sam and I know he will be really well trained and a pleasure to take anywhere.

Trainer note from Alex
As Sam's owner says, we made fantastic progress after just one session. Sam's walking on the lead and behaviour in the house really improved. We could even walk calmly near other dogs by the end of the session, which was previously an issue. Sam is a beautiful dog and I look forward to helping him fulfil his true potential.

4th November 2014 - Lynn Prentice

Lynn dealt with Puppy management, Recall, Toileting

Me and my partner Emily were having problems with our French bulldog, Roux. He was toileting eveywhere, wouldn't sleep and wasn't very keen on walking. Lynn came in and within two and a half hours made us feel like we were in control of our lives, rather than Roux in control of ours. Lynn has a firm but fair hand. Admittedly we'd been doing a lot of things wrong with Roux, but Lynn explained why they were problematic and how to correct them. Sometimes we felt a little bit sheepish about our choices, but Lynn helped us see that if we wanted a different dog, we'd have to make a different choice. Admittedly, we felt overwhelmed by the size of the task at hand, and the amount of information that we had to take in on the first, but having all the leaflets about each aspect of dog behaviour we wanted to change, it made it feel much more manageable. I think the most profound aspect for us was Lynn's recommendation on the food we were feeding Roux. We've started to transition Roux onto raw foods, and I think within just 24 hours, his poos are a little less stinky and as frequent. Also, having Lynn on hand to help us going forward takes the pressure off getting it right first time. An amazing experience, and one that is leaps and bounds above puppy training, which is an experience that we have to tailor ourselves to rather than the training tailored to us.

25th October 2014 - Kevin McDonnell

Kevin dealt with Aggression, Barking, Chewing, Jumping up, Pulling, Recall, Sibling rivalry

I can't believe how immediate the difference was in the behaviour of our dogs. It is as if a weight has been lifted off our shoulders. In a matter of minutes we were able to take back leadership in our own home. Kevin was totally professional, extremely likeable, very knowledgeable and delivered the results we badly needed with no fuss and in 1 session. Thank you Kevin.

20th October 2014 - Jacquie Callaby

Jacquie dealt with Aggression, Barking, Hyperactivity, Jumping up, Pulling, Recall

We want to say a huge thank you to Jacquie for all of her help. We are only 6 weeks in and are already seeing fantastic results. We are finally able to walk our dogs, go through doors, enjoy our garden and have guests over without fear of disaster striking. It's still early days but we are making better progress every training session!!

18th October 2014 - Estelle Jackson

Estelle dealt with Aggression

Brilliant from the beginning noticed reaults from the first session , so patient and understanding never thought we could train our dog but estelle proved us wrong, and gave us confidence in ourselves and the dog with his behaviour . Such a joy to be able to walk him now would recommend to anyone with dog troubles thanks

17th October 2014 - Graham Milgrew

Graham dealt with Aggression, Recall

The first session covered a huge amount which we found hard to absorb. This may well be due to our ages (60's and 70's) and not due to Jo's explanations which were very thorough. We obviously take longer to get things on board these days. We have been practicing what we were taught and our friend said it took her 6 months to teach her dog what we have managed with Jeeves in a few weeks. Our second session gave us more help and practice so that we know what to do in difficult situations and we are much more confident now.

16th October 2014 - Lee Hardy

Lee dealt with Aggression, Barking

Lee was great, really calm and instantly made a change to Jacks behaviour. Kicking myself I didn't call a year ago!

- -.C, Alrewas, Staffordshire (Testimonial)

16th October 2014 - Kevin McDonnell

Kevin dealt with Barking, Jumping up, Pulling

Kevin was extremely clear, he took us through our paces and we were astonished how quickly Molly responded. Left to our own devices we are achieving a 90% success rate with her and aim to make that 100%. It is very reassuring we can always call if we need more support. Kevin was great fun and we enjoyed our session. I have a feeling Molly is probably not quite as keen but with her improvement life will be a lot less stressful. A huge THANK YOU.

Kevin dealt with Aggression, Barking, Pulling, Recall

After just one session we noticed a considerable difference in Alfie's attitude. In fact he seemed quite happy.He seems alot more relaxed in the house and calmer in general. I'm very pleased with things so far and hopefully with a bit more work things will improve even more thanks to kevin.

13th October 2014 - Kevin McDonnell

Kevin dealt with Aggression, Barking, Hyperactivity, Jumping up, Pulling, Separation anxiety

Kevin gave a really clear description of the method of training used ,and why it is effective. The presentation was excellent and very informative. His control and confidence with our dogs was excellent, as was his demonstration of the techniques used. I am determined to make this work for Luca and Meg , as this will make our relationship with them much more positive and rewarding for both dogs and humans. Thank you very much Kevin, you have enabled me to see a way forward for us into the future.

13th October 2014 - Andy Waterhouse

Andy dealt with Barking, Puppy management, Recall, Other

Andy has worked wonders. Minnie is an eight month old Cavachon and is very timid by nature to the point that she would not want to go out on the lead for walks. Although still slightly unsure, Minnie has become a more confident dog and I have become a more confident owner. I also changed her diet to a raw food diet which has made her more relaxed and calm. I have worked with Andy on two sessions now and each time he works a miracle. Thank you Andy.
