Bark Busters Reviews and Customer Testimonials

Mark spent a lot of time with me and Molly, as Molly has a few issues and I was a bit stuck on how to deal with most of them. I really appreciated Mark's commitment to working through all our concerns. Molly loved Mark and responded really well to the training I applied. She is calmer already. It is a work in progress to deal with her reactivity, but we are already going for short car journeys without the barking. And when we are out, she will sometimes now ignore cars passing by. I think she feels more trust in me now and security with me. The Wagg Walker harness is fantastic, and when I do the check of the lead, Molly knows I want something from her. We will continue with the techniques we have been taught. Mark is very prompt to respond and I feel more confident knowing he is there to help with the lifetime support package

Mark came into our home, we sat down discussed our concerns and what we wanted to work on. He put some plans into place and then showed us how to go about the plan and use the tools provided. Mark is very good at what he does. Tui and Murphy are both doing well with the training. I would reccommend Bark Busters to anyone looking for help with there dogs.

Mark was very informative, friendly and clear. We were worried with our dog Goose sometimes showing aggression to strangers entering the home but Mark talked us through everything and we had no problems. Goose’s leash walking, selective hearing and reactivity at the window have all improved. We have a way to go with his excitable tendencies but at eh appt with improvements so far!

Wow! What a transformation in such a short time. Totally worth having Bark Busters guide us through the training with wee Gino 5.5mth old Mini Schnauzer with a big attitude and loud and often bark issue. But also help with all other obedience problems.

Our first session with Keiko was awesome! Keiko was very lovely to work with. She was very professional, knowledgeable and passionate in the way she shared her information with us. Her communications were clear and she gave great examples to help us understand what we as Ula's family needed to do and put in place to help connect and communicate better with her. She introduced and explained the Bark Busters Training Techniques clearly and showed us in practice with Ula all in that first session how it was effective. The education she gave us around how dogs operate and communicate and what she shared about nutrition for Ula was much appreciated too. Just in that first session with Keiko we saw great improvements for both ourselves and Ula and we are all much calmer and clearer on our path forward. By committing to the homework Keiko has set with us, we see positive things for Ula and us all as a family. We are so glad we reached out to Keiko for help and signed up for the lifetime support. We would not hesitate to recommend Keiko to all. Thanks so much Keiko.

We've worked with Keiko on our older dog (now 8, M, Lab) since he was about 3 to fix some tough habits and noticed a massive difference and so when we got a new puppy (8w, M, Retriever), she was one of our first calls. She's amazing at handling my big family and training all of us to be good leaders to our dogs as well as training our dogs. Would highly recommend. She's incredibly generous with her time and knowledge and with a lifetime support package, it's a no brainer.

Keith was great. Explained everything in a clear and concise manner. Was great to receive firm direction on how to deal with the issues that we encounter.

Mark was fantastic, he didn't just cover training, he also gave us recommendations for our dogs diet, exercise and tips on how to manage them in our home environment. We have a 3yr old Labrador and a 2 yr old Husky, and within half an hour of Mark being with the dogs we noticed a huge difference in their obedience and behaviour, so much more relaxed. I especially loved that it was all based on positive interactions with our dogs and wasn't treat based (we have a rather overweight Labrador) and the Husky is more interested in being on a mission than food.

Was great . Very informative. Still a way to go with the excitement bit and being anxious but we are getting there, much more relaxed dog who is listening now.

We found Marks training was very informative . Its a lot to take in at one time but good to see results almost instantly and to have the notes to refer back to. Mark is very patient and it is obvious he enjoys and loves his job.

Understanding and empathetic trainer who had an immediate effect upon how I discipline an anxious (biter and runner) rescue. Within 24 hours Pax was responding to my intervention and coming back to sit at my feet. He’s already more relaxed, less wound-up when I come home and happier in himself. We are so grateful that we can have the best of whatever time we have left together. ❤️🐾

Our 3yo boy, Dino, had bitten twice and, heartbreakingly, we were considering putting him down because we were so stressed about it happening again and we have young kids and lots of people visiting. We talked to a few trainers but Keiko offered us the most hope from that initial call. Keiko quickly showed us that Dino felt like he had to control situations because he was above us in the hierarchy. She gave us the tools to change this and taught us how to communicate better in dog language. It is funny because we have had numerous good dogs for over 20 years (and Dino's best mate Max is amazing), I have horses, cows etc but Dino, really tested us. You think what you are doing is right because you haven't had any issues for 20 years but this is where we were wrong and we needed a professional come and explain to us what we were doing wrong and open our eyes. Since Keiko has visited we have noticed a remarkable change in his behaviour and can see over time that we can break these bad habits completely. We are so grateful because she really has saved us a lot of heartache and Dino's life. Thank you Keiko!!
