Graham dealt with Aggression, Barking, Recall
Jo was excellent,she explained everything clearly and in a easy to understand way. She was happy to go over things again when asked and because of this the training method did not seem difficult.

Graham dealt with Chewing, Jumping up, Pulling, Puppy Training, Recall, Toileting
We found Graham to be a calm relaxing person and a pleasure to be with. We liked him immediately. Our children aged 6 and 10 also liked him and listened attentively to him. We will definitely be seeing him again and look forward to his next visit in due course.

Graham dealt with Barking, Chewing, Jumping up, Pulling, Recall
The training was very helpful. Graham was very patient and the techniques he showed us were very effective. He had a very calm yet authoritative manner to which our dog, Archie, an 18 month old Cockerpoo, responded well. We have been practising the techniques on Archie and have really noticed a difference in him over the first week. Looking forward to continuing!

Andy dealt with Aggression, Other
Andy's calm professional manner was very encouraging. Dealing with an aggressive rescue dog is not easy but Andy's calming approach really has helped, as owners we are also learning, there is a long way to go but Andy has already proved to us that his method of training can work, this week Teddy has improved with his walking and is responding to commands. We are feeling confident that Teddy will learn manners and how to behave correctly.

Andy dealt with Barking
Andy - This is an update:
Today we took Enzo & Fleur to a pre arranged Dachshund walk and just want you to know how proud we are. Enzo walked beautifully and only had a couple of barks.
It was a pleasure to walk out with a group of dogs and see Enzo and Fleur enjoying themselves so much.
We have kept up with all the training and they both go on daily walks.
Today was the icing on the cake......we hope our holiday goes as well.
Thank you Andy

Andy dealt with Barking, Separation Anxiety
Andy explained everything very clearly. We knew it wasn't just about training our dogs it was also retraining ourselves. We had to re -learn situations and take control of our dogs.
Enzo would bark constantly from walking out front door until we walked back in again. We had a short w/end break it was a nightmare due to his barking. We had to resort to room service to be able to eat!'
As a result of this I contacted Barkbusters and we haven't looked back.
Andy taught us how to deal with this and how to control the barking as Enzo felt he had to protect us and didn't like his space being invaded.
We have been able to control the barking indoors which has resulted in a much calmer and secure dog. We can take Enzo in the car and he now sits quietly, no stressing, we walk them in the park on long training leads and they enjoy their time and have fun. We had a slight glitch one week with an aggressive dog attacking Enzo. Once he was better we faced the park again.
Enzo now looks forward to his daily walk and is quiet going out of the front door, he might bark at something he sees along the way but we now know how to deal with calmly,
They both have changed tremendously due to this training regime. They sit down calmly indoors and are not always looking for attention. They are so much happier now they know we are the pack leaders and are gaining in confidence and we must continue with this programme. Enzo is now so much more relaxed.
Had a second meeting with Andy on 2nd May 2015. He felt we had mad really good progress and noticed a difference in their behaviour much calmer. We did a short street walk which Andy was pleased with and then a park visit. Met up with more dogs; need to take this on board more often.
It is now up to us to continue this programme as it is definitely showing results. We know we can ring Andy at any time if we have problem but hoping we can manage,
We have booked a w/end break beginning June so we hope to have worked through these issues by then.

Andy dealt with Barking, Puppy Training, 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.
