Reviews & Testimonials For Estelle Jackson

Estelle was very good and gave me advise on how to manage the behaviour problems. The dogs and I have been practicing daily and there have been some improvements in behaviour. They are no longer all trying to get through the door as soon as it is opened. the border terriers are together again for some of the time but only when I am around. They had, recently, started to fight. Distance training is variable. The border terriers are finding it difficult. But we are keeping working at it for a few minutes every day. Thankyou Estelle

I was really dubious at first about booking, it was a lot of money to spend if it didn't work. Estelle spent time listening to the problems I was having with my dogs. Jack barked at everything and was aggressive to visitors. Paddy would bark at passers by through the window and if the doorbell rang. He only slept a maximum of 4 hours on a night and would then whine and jump up on the safety gate until we let him outside, if we left him he would wee/poo on the floor. Paddy is also very anxious on a lead and will bark at other dogs and pull on the lead. After the first 3 hours I noticed a difference with both dogs in the home. After 1 night of putting in place the strategies paddy has slept through every night since with no accidents (after 18 months). Both dogs are 100% calmer in the home and visitors see the affectionate side to the boys that I do. They no longer bark at passers by, door bell, dogs on the tv and the postman. It's like I have 2 different dogs. There has been a small improvement with paddy out on walks but he is very anxious and this is going to take time and patience. I have just had a second visit that focused on walking and feeling more confident about the future. I would definitely recommend bark busters, big thanks to Estelle :-)

I have a 10month Lab (male) who pulls terrible on lead, and I learnt had no manners he was the one leading the pack as it were. With Estelle first visit I have clear guidelines to follow to make Zack a more obedient and respectfully dog, It's only been a week but he is walking better on lead. There is still a long way to go and a lot of work to put in but at least now I feel progress is been made and we will get the end result we are after, a calm loving dog that I can enjoy walking.

Estelle gave us a brilliant insight into our dogs behaviour. We had no idea we were spoiling her with attention and treats so much. We saw a change in the dog the same evening as we were able to watch tv without being bothered all the time. We've still got some points to work on but it was well worth the money and I'm looking forward I having a well trained dog!

It is like Estelle came along and waved a magic wand! We have a different dog after just one week. Estelle had assessed our difficulties and was suggesting solutions within the first half hour. It has been easy to put her instructions into practice due to the time she spent explaining why Cookie was behaving as she was. Estelle helped me to understand what my actions meant to my dog. Thank you!

Business like but very friendly. Assessed situation perfectly very quickly and was helpful from first few minutes. Thorough and insightful.

Very happy with first visit felt estelle knew about my dogs problems before she even met them just by talking to us .left me feeling positive about how to solve the problems I was having

I could see a huge difference in Maisie on Estelle's first visit and Estelle explained things very clearly and things that we thought all dogs did, which was actually Maisie attention seeking

Very useful, more success so far than we might have hoped for !

The response from Jem to Estelle was very noticeable.

Very pleased with the results

Estelle has visited us twice now & we are seeing a difference already with our ESS. She thoroughly explains everything, gives you lots of support & helps you to understand the background of dogs in general which helps you to understand why dogs do some of the things they do. We are very very pleased with her as our trainer & now feel confident that we will resolve the issues we're experiencing. I wish we had sought help from Barkbusters a long time & can't recommend them enough. Its definitely worth every penny.
