Really great training, we noticed the improvements almost immediately. So simple and yet so effective!
Trainer note from Mark
Awesome dogs and the young one in question was so willing to learn. Great work by the owners in a not so easy environment on the day.

The training was excellent. From the moment I opened the door, Keiko was able to asses the problem with Karl's barking and the training began straight away! I saw the benefit and value of the training immediately with the first technique as Karl refocused and stopped barking instantly!
Trainer note from Keiko
Karl (8 month old Japanese Spitz) responded to the training really well. He is so willing to please the owner. He is a sweet young dog. Keep up the good work!

Everything was very well explained in detail and backed up with facts. Keiko was also very friendly, easy to get along with and she was also very good with my dog - my dog made so much progress in just 2 hours! She learnt to wait and be invited through doorways, walk on a leash, called to come, and also only eat treats on her bed. Excellent trainer.
Trainer note from Keiko
I was very happy with the way Latte (Fox Terrier Cross, 8 month old) responded to the training. She is still a very young dog, keep up the good work!

Mark was incredible. I noticed a change in Kylo within the first 30 minutes. I honestly can't thanks Mark enough for not only helping me understand my pup but to be able to communicate right from wrong to a very excitable teenage puppy. I'd highly recommend Mark & the Bark Busters Team to anyone struggling with how to relate to their dog as their methods are easy to understand and a cinch to relay to a furry friend. Definite game changers!! Thanks again Mark :)
Trainer note from Mark
Kylo was a very exuberant and over the top 1 year old but also nervous and not the temperament to be in charge. Fantastic relaying of the information and putting into action by Hayley. Your dog is going to be a winner.

We are very happy with how our training with Mark went tonight. We were both very nervous at the start and was unsure if it would work for Turbo but are so happy and pleased we did it.
Trainer note from Mark
Great folk , great wee dog who just needed a guiding hand and some speaking dog the bark Busters way.

Mark was great, he explained everything clearly and positively. We have definitely noticed a difference in how we and Charlie behave and I'm looking forward to more improvements as we progress.
Trainer note from Mark
Charlie's going to be a great dog but certainly has a focus issue to work on . Quite headstrong too. Great work by Jacq and the family.

We live overlooking a reserve and Robbie and Willow barked at everything! This has meant that we had to live with the curtains permanently closed, doors and windows shut and we never had a meal that was uninterrupted as we constantly tried to stop Robbie and Willow barking to avoid upsetting the neighbours. We had been to puppy classes, listened to ridiculous advice from other dog owners, bought a sonic device, had a trainer (not from Barkbusters) in our home whose methods were to say the least cruel and unethical. Our trust in trainers was at an all time low. Life was stressful and we were at our wits end. Then salvation came in the form of Keiko.
Keiko is an amazing trainer. From the time that she entered the house she paid close attention to Robbie and Willow's behaviour whilst also listening to our difficulties, especially with barking. Within a couple of minutes she had the barking under control. It was unbelievable, almost as if a switch had been turned off in the dogs brains. They seemed more relaxed, and we were just in awe at the efficacy of the training. We were also helped with problems walking Robbie and Willow and given heaps of advice.
It is now one week since our first session and the difference that Keiko's training has made to our lives and Robbie and Willow's is immense. It is of course a process; we have to train ourselves as well as the dogs but at last we are seeing the lovely dogs that we always hoped that we had.
I cannot recommend Barkbusters and especially Keiko enough. If you have problems of any kind, don't give up on your dogs, invest in them, it is worth every cent. You will reap the benefits, making the lives of your family and dogs much happier.
Trainer note from Keiko
Thank you for the great feedback! I was very pleased with the way both Robbie & Willow responded to the training. They were a little confused about the rules and boundaries. Keep up the good work :)

The training was amazing! Keiko understood my dog 100%, and she was like doing magic things to Jojo, then Jojo was listening to her very well, and behave very well after the training, that was what we wanted from Jojo. Thanks very much Keiko!
Trainer note from Keiko
Jojo is a very smart lovely young German Shepherd. I was very pleased the way she responded to the training. Keep up the good work!

Results from first session very noticeable. Dog not upset or stressed at all. Training instructions very easy to follow.

Great lesson for a rehomed Cavaliar King Charles with barking issues and had always lived with a big dog not alone.
Trainer note from Mark
A challenging wee girl, with slight nervous issues, Can do the tasks but sometimes chooses to be stubborn. Great work by the owners who endeavour to work through the new problems when they occur.
