We have only had one session with Keith so far and we have already seen huge changes! Nala used to be quite aggressive towards my husband to the point where he couldn’t even sit down in the lounge in the evening without Nala biting him. It’s now been two weeks since we met Keith and Nala has not bitten my husband once! She has tried but using the tools Keith taught us has put Nala in her place immediately and it has made such a huge difference to her behaviour. She is now much more settled in the evening and doesn’t bark every time someone walks past our house. We still have a lot to work on, but I now have seen what this type of training can achieve and I am looking forward to making more improvements because it really is helping our whole family.

Bark Busters dealt with Aggression, Barking, Pulling, Separation anxiety
Trainer note from Keith : Thank you Fiona. It's amazing what communication and leadership do for anxious dogs like Nala. She's obviously calmer and happier. And you must have been doing the homework to get the results so far. Be consistent and persistent and she'll continue to improve. Looking forward to seeing the progress with my next visit as part of our Life of the Dog Support Guarantee. Well done everyone!

Keith was amazing. We are fostering a Frenchie who is 6years old. It was so obvious we had implemented good clear boundaries and rules in the past with our much larger breeds, and our past Frenchie. You can implement those rules as a puppy but rehoming and fostering you can allow leniency because you feel sorry or guilty they are adjusting to new people and new home. Still a work in progress but highly recommend for novice and experienced owners. It was great to have an expert like Keith provide us all with great advice and solutions. Permalink

Trainer note from Keith : Thanks Rebecca. It was a pleasure to help. He responded really well from the start which is a great sign. Lucky Frenchie getting this new home with people who care and understand it's not a smooth transition. As you recognise, clear boundaries and sticking to them is essential to helping him settle and feel at home in his new home. Good job!

Keith was excellent. Provided a lot of info in a very digestible manner. We immediately realised we had been making some errors in the way we had been managing and teaching Nui but I’m pleased to say, after just a few days of the training lessons, we are already seeing some small improvements. We are very thankful and so pleased we contacted Keith when we did. Permalink
Bark Busters dealt with Aggression, Jumping up, Pulling, Sibling rivalry
Trainer note from Keith : Thank you. I'm pleased you found the info digestible. I do think the "why" is important, along with the "how". Hopefully Nui's big goofy younger sister will get with the programme as well. They do learn off each other, good and bad! I'm looking forward to seeing the improvements.

The training provided was amazing, taught us so many things we had no idea about. it has only been a couple of days but Storm is already responding so well to everything we have been implementing. Such a relief to finally have some control over storm and the household is so much calmer and happier now that he is listening and responding to us. I will be recommending the training to other friends and family. Permalink
Bark Busters dealt with Aggression, Barking, Pulling, Recall, Sibling rivalry
Trainer note from Keith : Thank you! Clear communication and an understanding of the principles of leadership are making it easy for him to be the Dachshund you want him to be. Well done all of you!! Don't forget, it is important to be consistent and persistent, they do test the boundaries every now and then to check that you're serious. The other dogs will be relieved to have a calmer happier home, especially at their ages. Calmer and happier dog = calmer and happier family!

Keith was excellent. A wealth of expertise and extremely helpful. Permalink
Bark Busters dealt with Barking, Hyperactivity, Jumping up, Puppy management, Toileting
Trainer note from Keith : Thanks Jo, pleased to be of assistance. It's challenging having 2 puppies and then integrating a couple of much smaller older dogs into the house. I look forward to helping you more.

After just the first session I have my dog under control when out and about and he is so much better when encountering other dogs. No longer pulls on the lead and in general he is much more relaxed. Permalink
Bark Busters dealt with Aggression, Chewing, Pulling, Sibling rivalry
Trainer note from Keith : Thanks Sally. Nothing like some leadership and communication to help him understand what's expected and acceptable behaviour. Pulling on the lead and dog reactivity are challenging but with his strength it can be extra challenging! Fantastic response from him, and you. He knows how to do this, and so do you! Be persistent and consistent with the great work!

Reuben W Newtown, Wellington | July 26 2024
Keith was awesome, he gave us a great framework to understand how our dog thinks and what's needed as an owner/leader to ensure we are communicating and training our dog in a way the dog understands. We noticed improvements literally straight away and within a few days it was like we had a different puppy. Well worth every penny. He's been amazing since you left even letting us leave the house in the crate with no barking! Permalink
Trainer note from Keith : Thanks Reuben. He's still very young and has a bit of development to do but you've got some good tools now to make it easier for you all. Thank you for inviting me to help with Tiny, the Sydney Silky.

Great session with Keith. He has a great style and is very patient. We’ve seen some good changes with our Jack and still working on his barking. Permalink
Bark Busters dealt with Aggression, Barking, Jumping up, Pulling
Trainer note from Keith : Thanks Bob. Jack showed in the first session that he was understanding the new way things were being done. He'll become more relaxed and less reactive as you persist with the changes in your little interactions as well as the training exercises. I'm looking forward to seeing his progress.
