Understanding Chase's brain is proving super helpful in moving forward using the wonderful techniques we've learned.
Thank you for sharing your wisdom with us!
Trainer note from Mark
Chase is a poochon , very barky at anything he hears and especially guests coming in. was jumping up , separation anxiety and recall all issues to address also an aggression side if someone walks past and he's out. He responded well in the lesson and we'll do another session before they move to Australia. There maybe some back steps with the crating and travel process so Our lifetime support guarantee means they can continue the program once in Ozzy with our Bark Busters trainer over there for the one off fee paid here. Catch up with you soon Mr Chase.

Mark dealt with Chewing, Jumping up, Puppy management
Mark has given me hope that I can get through this crazy puppy stage and come out the other side with a very good dog.
Trainer note from Mark
Cute but very strong willed Blue heeler, Really testing the owners with her over the top pushy bitey behaviour. She responed quite well and at only 3mths will be a natural work in progress but very smart. Basics first then work from there. Great job by mum to apply the simple processes so far . Catch up soon to take more steps forward.

Mark dealt with Barking, Jumping up, Pulling, Recall
Mark was great at teaching us in a friendly, non judgemental, easy to understand way. Molly and Luna have responded really well to the techniques Mark has shown us and we are working on these skills every day with them. Molly and Luna can now be walked on a loose lead and have already decreased the amount they are barking at perceived threats. They are much more content now that we are clearly in charge of our pack.
Thanks for your help Mark.

Trainer note from Mark
Both Luna 3 and Molly 10 were very reactive to outside noises and activity. The owners struggled to get on top of there barking ,pulling , recall and focus. They responded not instantly but after some focus exercises started to refocus very well. Great to have the feed back each day with some video from the owners who really are working hard for dogs who are already being substantially better behaved. You guys have got this. Well done.

Mark came to help us with our 11 month Cavoodle Casper who has always been overexcited and has never taken to training. Over the course of the last week with the techniques Mark has shown us, Casper and the rest of our family have seen massive improvement with an acknowledgment of a long road to go. Casper is now respecting boundaries (not sitting on couch, jumping on coffee table, licking dishwasher etc) 95% of the time. He is now much better at recall and we all are learning lead walking together. All in all, can see the benefits of time and training ahead of us!
Trainer note from Mark
Casper is a full of life and over top behaviour Cavoodle. Table surfing , jumping , pulling , estatic barking for guests. With a new baby very shortly arriving the owners of the 4 legged baby new something had to change. Great work so by the owners and Casper for taking onboard the dogs language and rules to retrain little Casper. Still more to go but he's heading in the relaxed direction and the house hold is more relaxed. Nice job team.

Our first visit with Mark yesterday 17th June 2023. He was very easy to deal with, and extremely informative and so helpful with Meg, who can be very strong willed!!. There was alot of info to take in, but Mark left with us with everything we went over during our visit, which I have found so helpful to go over. Myself and Meg were pretty tired after the lesson, but taking her out today to go over some of the lessons, I have found her to be much more relaxed calm. Looking forward to continue working with Meg and having my furbaby out to new places to walk. Would recommend Mark to others.
Trainer note from Mark
A great couple who took on board and from this review have already applied our Bark Busters speakdog communication. Meg is a young 14mth old very exuberant Heading dog x Huntaway whos pulling , jumping and full on head strong nature meant she really wasn't focussing well . She was blasting around well though. So time to calm the farmlet herder with some daily focus exercises to let her think and use her brain as it should be. Much more relaxed dog even after just a couple of simple applicatipons of her own dog rules. Well done guys and gals , see you soon for a checkup.

Mark dealt with Jumping up, Recall, Sibling rivalry
Friendly, knowledgeable and all information and training techniques clearly communicated. However there was a lot of information to take in, in one session. Both Locky and I were tired afterwards. I will need some information repeating at the next session.
Trainer note from Mark
Great little Staffy cross who after being attacked by other dogs changed from friendly to fear aggressive and defensive. The lesson went very well as the basics of a good dog were there but needed some more dog speak to get the focussing on the owner a bit better. Locky will be a work in progress as his anxiety is high but so far great skills showing. I'm looking forward to a catch up and recap revisit soon. Great job guys.

Even after our first session we have seen a huge change in Dashi’s behaviour. Family and friends have commented on how relaxed she seems to be now.
Trainer note from Mark
Dashi is a wee ShihTzu x Maltese who had serious separation anxiety, barker, pulled , attention seeking ,very dog reactive after some dogs attacked her. Great response in the initial lesson and took on board the process of letting the humans lead her well. Still some progress to go and 2nd session soon to fine tune . Nice job guys.
