Mark has helped us out a lot. He explained a few things we didn't realize we were doing and helped us to put in place strategies that have really helped with our dogs. sometimes you just need someone to show you where you might be going wrong and Mark was easily able to do that. We have already seen vast improvements in the issues we were experiencing with the dogs. thank you for your help.

9th April 2023 - Mark Gall

Mark dealt with Aggression, Barking, Pulling

Mark was great, he took time to walk through the basics of leadership with the dog, walked through some scenarios and gave us a solid plan to work on in the coming weeks. Our dog made changes on the day and we are looking forward to seeing how the training will help curb his aggression towards intact male dogs going forward.

- S.M, Halswell, Christchurch (Testimonial)

Trainer note from Mark
Stanley is a GSP x Pointer and 4 years old responded well to the Barkbusters Speakdog communication process. The owners took it on board and applied the techniques well and are already seeing results . Stanley was getting reactive to some dogs and just needed refocussing . pulled a bit , barked at the door and the reactiveness to some dogs was the major concern. Great job guys , I look forward to an update soon.

Keith dealt with Aggression, Jumping up, Recall, Separation anxiety

Good first session

- S.E, Lower Hutt (Testimonial)

1st April 2023 - Keiko Ruwhiu

Keiko dealt with Aggression, Barking, Hyperactivity, Jumping up, Pulling, Recall, Separation anxiety

Right from the start Loki began to realise that he was not in charge and started to focus more on me. The correction stopped him and the worst of his behaviours was starting to get under control. I do like that he now knows that he is not in charge of what he does when it is not acceptable to me or the wellbeing of my two small dogs. I am so grateful to Keiko, the trainer, for her time and effort that she put into me and teaching Loki who is in control and that he has boundaries that he has to adhere to. Keiko was not pushy but did correct me when I got things wrong with Loki so that I could keep him on the right track. With time and consistency on my part and the help of Keiko I now know that Loki can have the life that he deserves. Looking forward to further improvements as the training moves forward.

30th March 2023 - Mark Gall

Mark dealt with Barking, Jumping up, Pulling

Great session with Mark, very experienced and helped us understand why River was behaving as he was. Mark has given us great techniques to work with as we help River grow into the well behaved dog we know he can be.

- K.H, Somerfield , Christchurch (Testimonial)

Trainer note from Mark
Kate and Jeremy were great at applying the techniques shown . River is a young very over enthusiastic GSD . The owners have never been able to walk him with out serious pulling but other problems too of jumping up , rushing doors , and general hyper behaviour and young children as well. River responded well to the easy to apply process and clearly s doing well having better guidance. Great job guys, keep up the awesome work.

28th March 2023 - Keiko Ruwhiu

Keiko dealt with Jumping up, Pulling, Puppy management, Recall, Sibling rivalry, Toileting

Keiko is an incredibly knowledgeable, patient and accommodating trainer. We've seen great improvement in our pup in just a few sessions with her and we're excited to see the dog Otis will become thanks to Keiko's help. Keiko has given us tools to help Otis be more confident on his own at home, walk without pulling on the lead, develop better recall as well as door and food manners. We'd recommend her and Bark Busters to anyone with a new puppy!

26th March 2023 - Mark Gall

Mark dealt with Aggression, Barking, Jumping up, Pulling

Went beyond my expectations. Mark was wonderful. Extremely competent and gave clear instructions for us as owners of Jesse, to follow. Already after one session, Jesse is much quieter and more obedient. Worked like magic.

- S.M, Christchurch (Testimonial)

Trainer note from Mark
Jesse is a Labrador x Border Collie , clever and little manipulating. Runs the household a bit. His biggest issue is a dog in the neighbourhood who attacked him when he was young now the tide has turned and Jesse is full on when they see each other. 1st session was to develop the focus skills and all responded well to the speakdog training. A little more to go and Jesse will be awesome. Great work guys , chat soon.

26th March 2023 - Keiko Ruwhiu

Keiko dealt with Aggression, Barking, Other

By showing us how to communicate with Rosie and interpret her body language Keiko put us on the same page. Hands down contacting Bark Busters was the best call I've made in my life, I wish I'd done so sooner. Rosie has always been aggressive toward other people, we couldn't take her anywhere, friends stopped coming over, if only she could be with others as she is with us. Although we were a little apprehensive as to how it would work out, Keiko kept everything simple and involved the whole family. Rosie responded amazingly well, I wouldn't ever have dreamed we'd be able to have a visitor over without putting Rosie in her kennel or crate whilst barking the house down. Within our first session Rosie was able to accept Keiko as our visitor and stop barking, she even stopped barking at the neighbours. We can already see Rosie's behaviour changing and are committed to working with her, it's so rewarding. Thank you Keiko.

- A.M, Auckland (Testimonial)

24th March 2023 - Keiko Ruwhiu

Keiko dealt with Jumping up, Pulling, Puppy management, Recall, Toileting

Hi Keiko, I want to express my gratitude for all your fantastic work with Jasper. As a first-time dog owner, I was overwhelmed and unsure of how to raise and train him properly, but with your guidance and expertise, I now feel confident in my abilities. The overnight behaviour change in Jasper was simply remarkable. Your training methods were effective and gentle, and I could see their positive impact on his behaviour almost immediately. I was amazed at how quickly Jasper responded to your training techniques. I also appreciate the information you provided to help me better understand Jasper's behaviour. You took the time to explain the reasoning behind each training method, and you gave me helpful tips and tricks for reinforcing positive behaviours. Thank you again for all that you have done. You have made a world of difference to us. I highly recommend your services to anyone needing a skilled and compassionate dog trainer.

23rd March 2023 - Mark Gall

Mark dealt with Barking, Jumping up, Pulling

Had our first session with Mark. We were really happy with how it went and are working on the areas we had time to cover. Looking forward to continuing the journey with Mark by our side.

- H.W, Blenheim (Testimonial)

Trainer note from Mark
Ardi is a Hungarian Vizsla and at 1.7 yrs old ,a full on in tact male teen dog. A slightly nervous dog he was barking at lots and recall and pulling were major issues. Both the owners and Ardi responded well and the owners apply what we had time to put very well. Future lessons will see further improvements as he is a pushy boy who's been let lead . Great work guys.
