Bark Busters Reviews and Customer Testimonials

Keiko was absolutely amazing. She made it so easy and enjoyable. I'm so relieved I found Bark Busters and I can’t wait for our follow up training session. I’ve been recommending Keiko and Bark Busters to everyone I meet with a dog. Simply amazing Thank you

We recently had a session with Keiko to help us with our 6-year-old dog Jerry who is the alpha of our two dogs and after one session we are genuinely impressed by the results. We noticed a remarkable change in Jerry's responsiveness and overall demeanour. Keiko is very intuitive, and clearly experienced. She quickly identified the root of the behavioural issues and tailored the approach to suit Jerry's personality and needs. But what really stood out was realising that we needed training too. Keiko didn’t just work with our dog — she helped us understand how our own actions and communication were affecting the situation. We feel much more hopeful and empowered as dog owners. Highly recommend to anyone looking for effective and compassionate dog training.

Very impressed with Mark's approach. Makes good sense and is realistically achievable with a little work and perseverance. Already seeing great results. Thanks so much :)

Excellent first session with Keith. Just going over the basics and some Q&A.

We had Mark out on Friday to help us with some issues we were having with our wee mixture foxy x jack russell , she is very jumpy and in your face, reactivate to anything that passes by gate, and when walking will bark and bark at other dogs going by, I'm very impressed with the instant change in her listening to the commands and how much more calmer she is, we still have a long way to go but I'm positive with daily training and perseverance we will definitely get there, a work in progress.

It was great to have all the family here to listen to Mark and his help with the dynamics of the dogs in our household. Mark was able to help with the issues we had with Dora and her reactiveness for when people arriving at the door and how she is when we are out for walks and she encounters other dogs. There has been a huge improvement of when people arrive at our house and although she is still reactive with dogs on the street there has been some improvement. The new Wagg walker harness has really helped.

When we got Bella, our rescue pup, she had severe separation anxiety which manifested in chewing/destroying items around the house (including the couch!) and could be very defensive and showing aggression, particularly with strangers. She also had a tendancy to jump and be overly needy. One session with Keiko and she showed immediate obedience and capacity to learn within minutes of instruction. With Keiko's help we've really turned things around. Bella has learnt to cope with separation and she's developed a lot of great skills including recall, focus and food control. Ongoing sessions with Keiko keep us moving towards ideal & consistent dog behaviours and we couldn't recommend Bark Busters and Keiko more highly.

We really enjoyed the training, we now understand how leadership is the most important factor. We are really happy how quickly Yoto's behavior has changed. Keith did a great job to explain the training exercises. I definitely recommend Bark Busters if you are having issues with your dog.

Keith was amazing. Dogs were so calm with him and he trained us well! In one week the difference in our puppies is amazing

It was lovely to meet Mark today!! Our girl Xena was a terrible lead puller and very fear reactive around strange dogs. Mark taught us some great techniques to help Xena and make us better leaders for her. We still have a way to go on our journey together, but going forward we now have the skills and the homework to create wonderful peaceful walking days!! Can’t recommend Mark enough, great to have that on-going support too.

Keiko is highly knowledgeable and passionate. The skills we have been taught are already making a difference to our puppy and his behaviours. She is always only a text or phone call away. We are very glad to have chosen Keiko as our trainer and our feeling positive about more progress to come. We would highly recommend her to anyone :)

The advice and knowledge shared by Keiko is amazing. Her ability to help us to better communicate with "Tama" is a game changer. In just a couple of hours we learned so much and we are so excited to continue on this journey. Thank you Keiko and Bark Busters!!
