I found Keiko to be a very good trainer and the dogs were responsive to her methods almost immediately.
The training methods have already had a massive impact on my dogs behaviour.
Trainer note from Keiko
Roger (5 year old Jack Russell) and Syd (10 year old Jack Russell) were barking at the gate when visitors arrived and at the fence to the neighbours. And they only came to the owner when they wanted to. But both of them responded to the training very well. Keep up the good work!

It is an amazing experience. We have had dogs before for many years. This is the first time we had a German Shepard - She is unique.
We have had training with German Shepard club and some personal trainers, and were never satisfied.
Then comes Keiko with her unique technique and training to us - we are blown away (also Arya...)
We are happy all are going well with us consequent to this training.
Trainer note from Keiko
Arya (German Shepherd 2 years old) had come a long way. She stopped barking and jumping up when visitors arrive and come when she is called. The owners are very determine to help her to behave better and doing a great work! Happy dog = Happy family. Keep up the good work!

Through a very simple approach, all fell in to place, both for us and for Izzy.
Trainer note from Keiko
Izzy (10 month old Pit Bull cross) is such a sweet girl but can be stubborn. She was pulling lead when walking and only came when she wanted to. Izzy responded to the training very well. Keep up the good work!

Balto has come a long way since we called Keiko in she has helped us a great deal teaching us the correct way to teach Balto. We still have a few more things to practice but we are going to get there with Keiko's help
Trainer note from Keiko
Yes, Balto (German Shepherd 10 months old) has come a long way. He was quite confused of the rules and boundaries. Once you set them clear he was happy to follow. I am very pleased with his progress. Keep up the good work!

Excellent advice and support. Everything Keiko suggested worked and is easy to follow.
Trainer note from Keiko
Cooper (7 month old Labrador Staffy cross) was a shy puppy when he joined Bark Busters three months ago. But all the time and effort the owners put in he is much more confident and behaving so much better. I was very please to see his progress but he is still a young dog so keep up the good work!

We are so pleased with the progress Buster has made. The help Keiko has given all of us has been invaluable. He has gone from an anxious, bark mad dog who drove us crazy to much more a dog who knows his place in the pack. We are now better dog owners and know how to handle situations better since Keiko has shown us helpful tactics. We still have work to do but we are getting there!
Trainer note from Keiko
Buster (4 year old Griffon) has come a long way. He was quite timid and nervous with visitors but now he is so much calmer and responding to the owners very well. Keep up the good work!

We adopted our beautiful Molly from the pound. There was no information on her background and just a guess of her age between 10-12 months. Molly was a real handful on the lead pulling so hard you thought your arm might rip out of its socket. After 1 session with Keiko she was like a different dog, it was like who is this imposter on the end of my lead. She is learning everyday and will now also sit and stay while food is being thrown around her. Keiko has taught me so much about handling my fur baby I still have much to learn, thank you.
Trainer note from Keiko
Molly (1 year old Kelpie cross) responded to the training really well. She really wants to do the right thing and please the owner. The owner just had to learn to communicate in the way Molly understands. Very please with the progress. Keep up the good work!

We can't thank Keiko enough for the work she did with us and helping us train our dog Louie. Louie went from an anxious yappy dog to a settled best friend. Visitors today and no barking! Used to bark at pet bird, now stopped! She's a dog whisperer but the best part is she teaches you how to be a confident leader for your dog.
Trainer note from Keiko
Louie (2 year old, Shih Tzu Bichon cross) responded to the training very well. He really wants to please the owners and do the right thing. as long as you communicate to him in the way he understands and right timing, he can only get better. Keep up the good work!

Kieko is lovely and was fantastic with Mila. She explains the processes and the reasons for the training methods very clearly. We immediately saw improvements and our pup is a lot happier now that she knows her place in the pack. I would highly recommend Keiko and Bark Busters. We are very happy owners!

The training was fantastic and very informative. Lots of explanations were given as to why the training was needed and it has certainly made a big difference to our family life. Cooper is now more relaxed and he knows what the boundaries are.
26th November 2017 - Keiko Ruwhiu
We were so shocked at how effective it was. All the explanations given made perfect sense to us. We will keep practicing the training we learned. Thank you so much!!!

We first met Keiko when we needed help with Indi barking at the gate. That was almost 2 years ago
It did seem expensive, but being able to have ongoing support for the lifetime of the dog is really superb value for money. We've asked Keiko back several times to help with bad behaviour after moving house & just to refresh us with training, or if Indi was forgetting her manners.
Keiko is incredible - very experienced and great to deal with. Indi always says thank you for coming back to re-train my Mum.
