Bark Busters Reviews and Customer Testimonials
9th September 2017 - Keiko Ruwhiu
Keiko took the time to get to know our dogs, she patiently watched all the triggers, and observed the behaviour of both ourselves and the dogs. She provided insight into Busby's behaviour that we were totally oblivious to prior to Keiko's visit. She gave us tools and techniques in a very simple manner to help us form a wonderful, lifelong bond with Busby in a non-coercive manner, without the use of treats or bribery. We can't thank you enough Keiko - WE are fully committed to the BarkBusters way - Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Already we have a pack of Newfoundlands that has started listening and responding to us, like never before.
Trainer note from Keiko

Mark explained things very clearly and went through a number of training exercises with us for Frankie. We could see an immediate difference in Frankie and were excited to implement the training.
Trainer note from Mark
Frankie is a clever and pushy wee dog, this clients first dog so basics and learning to speak dog was needed, much improved on lesson one back a month ago and some more skills to apply on the second visit. Huge improvements for a busy household with two little kids.

Mark had Ash sorted very soon after arriving. He pointed out simple things we were doing that was exacerbating Ash's behavior and how we could easily change this. He was here for 3 hours and we covered an enormous amount in that time, from simple things like learning his position in our "pack" and obedience, to walking on the lead and long lead work. Ash changed from that day due to Mark's advice. When Ash had a "relapse" Mark quickly came back to work with us all again.
Trainer note from Mark
Ash is a pushy wee man and clever at getting his way, Speak dog training for the family and improvements seen almost immediately. A recent revisit for a neck up check up has ironed out a couple more things. This family are keen to get it right. Nice work guys.

Keiko gave a very clear understanding for us to understand by showing us how to do things. Nala had already learnt some things we wanted her to improve on. Keiko's demonstration to have Nala follow commands was inspiring for us and not to give up.
Training was very good, everything about puppy behaviours and why the do or act in ways was very well explained and gave us a better understanding on how to get Nala to have manners and behave well.
Trainer note from Keiko
I was very happy the way young Nala (Miniature Poodle, 3 month old) responded to the training. However she is still a puppy, Keep up the good work and don't give up :)

We were very happy with the techniques Keiko showed us. The dogs responded well when we used them. Cooper is going to be a large dog so we needed him to obey our commands. Thank you Keiko!!
Trainer note from Keiko
Cooper (Newfoundland) responded to the training very well. He is still a young boy so keep up the good work!

The training was fantastic. I have noticed a major improvement in the dogs already. They don't bark when we leave the house anymore or when someone comes to the door.
Keiko was great at explaining why our dog was behaving like he was.
Trainer note from Keiko
The boys responded to the training really well. Great to hear they are behaving better:) Keep up the good work!

Right from the time Mark walked in the door it was clear that our dog understood that something new was about to happen. Mark showed by example how to best manage a rather noisy excitable small dog.
Trainer note from Mark
Little Misty was in charge of this house, not a dominant dog but definitely a rather clever one and had the family sussed. The family took on board what was being taught to them and Misty responded well in the lesson. Great work guys.

The training was great it was very informative and any questions or concerns we had were answered and dealt with at the training. The boys made progress and responded on the first training session I was very impressed.
Trainer note from Keiko
I was very pleased with the way boys (English Staffy cross, 8 month old) responded to the training. They are very sweet boys:) Keep up the good work!

Keiko is fantastic! Buddy has not been an easy puppy and she has been so helpful. She has an amazing calmness that rubs off on animals and humans alike.
Trainer note from Keiko
Buddy (Pug Griffon cross, 6 month old) is a very cleaver boy. I was very pleased with the way he responded to the training. Keep up the good work! :)

Mark made it easy for us to understand how to train our dog and showed some good techniques of how to apply commands to our dog for him to respond to our commands. Having given us a lot of information and having taught us how to train our dog, after only a couple of days the results are already showing with both us and our dog and how we are responding to each other. Still a lot more work to go but things are looking positive.
Trainer note from Mark
This lovely big boy is an American Bulldog and just hasn't had some rules in place that should have been. He responded well but will be a work on progress especially with his dog fear aggression. Keep to the program and awesome work.

Our second time round with Bark Busters, the last dog has passed away a while ago due to old age . We didn't even look any where else for our new puppies training. Wonderful. Wold always use Bark Busters
Trainer note from Mark
These clients are of mature age and needed to get on top of the young pups behaviour as its a large breed, before it becomes an issue so Puppy management from day one was the go. Response from pup and owners was immediate but a pup is always a work in progress.
