Bark Busters Reviews and Customer Testimonials

29th February 2016 - Keiko Ruwhiu

Keiko was very thorough in providing us with valuable information and explainations on dog behaviour. She was able to translate our dog's behaviour and identify the behavioural issues.She also helped us to correct our training methods in order to enhance communication between us and our dog . We were given solutions and techniques that were immediately effective. We highly recommend BarkBusters to anyone who is struggling to understand or train their beloved canine companions.

23rd February 2016 - Mark Gall

Bert becomes very anxious with people in general and barks continually at them from a distance. He will not let anyone approach him. At the beach he will circle people and bark at them which can be quite scary for these people minding there own business. He is scared of small children and their bikes. When visitors arrive Bert barks incessantly. Mark's training has been excellent and we now have a routine for these occasions. We have a much better understanding of how Bert sees things and why he behaves the way he does. Mark has shown us how to get control back and help Bert be less anxious.

- M.S, Northwood, Canterbury (Testimonial)

Trainer note from Mark
Bert was possibly the most nervous dog I've seen for years but with careful application of the right amount of focus work and affection he's managed to become a quite relaxed dog in many of his daily situations. Unusual for a Labrador to be anxious of life. Fantastic effort and work by the owners has seen Bert start to enjoy life a bit more. Thanks for the commitment

20th February 2016 - Keiko Ruwhiu

Really excellent, Keiko was every thing that we needed, we couldn't be more happy with her service. It was a great first session, Keiko spent all afternoon here with us and our two dogs and with her expert help we are now on the way to becoming two proud well behaved dog owners. Improvements in their behaviour were noticed in that first session and they are getting better every day as we follow the program that she left us. We highly recommend her, following her advice we have even changed the dogs diet, we are now aware of where we were lacking as dog owners and what we can achieve, thanks very much Keiko we are looking forward to our next session and hopefully with two much better behaved dogs

Paddy and I had a great time learning with Mark. Paddy responded well to the techniques and I was suprised how calm he became. I'm excited to try out my new skills :)

- G.P, Ashburton, Canterbury (Testimonial)

Trainer note from Mark
Paddy is a typical 6mth old over exuberant Labrador. Lives on a Dairy farm . but hasn't a herding bone in his body. Lovely dog too full of beans. Both the owner and Paddy worked well ,took in the exercises and Paddy showed the results with a huge improvement in focus after just a couple of hours . Great job Paddy boy and owner.

10th February 2016 - Mark Gall

We are thrilled with the improvement in our anxious dog's behaviour. Mark was easy to talk to and explained well the changes we needed to make to reduce the anxiety levels of our young springer spaniel. I am now able to take Becca on long walks without any lead pulling, and she is no longer barking aggressively at people coming to our front door. We still have a little way to go, but are confident we will have a happy dog in the end.

- S.M, Prebbleton, Canterbury (Testimonial)

Trainer note from Mark
Becca was a timid and therefore aggressive barker and snapper at the door. We had to correct the barking right at the door because we couldn't hear each other before we could even sit down to talk. She responded well ,a little head strong at first but with guidance the owners got brilliant results by about half way through the lesson. Great work awesome effort.

8th February 2016 - Mark Gall

Mark was professional and definitely helped Louis in the immediate time frame although we still have problems with his barking. Very cool to have Mark come back and help again a few months later. We are still trying hard with his guidelines and it is nice to know we can call on him again if we need to.

- J.L, Casebrook, Canterbury (Testimonial)

Trainer note from Mark
Quite challenging 2 dogs and house hold as there are several flat mates and a business work from home , a busy house. Busy dogs and not too much structure till now. The barking is at doors etc and anxiety on walks. They start to respond well in lesson situation but like all training consistency will help. Much better than they were and with a bit more persistent application they'll be even better, Great work guys, keep it up.

5th February 2016 - Mark Gall

We were struggling with introducing a kitten into our home alongside our middle-aged westie. Mark gave sound advice and tips to correct the behaviour that Rosie was exhibiting and this worked immediately to change the behaviour. The kitten now happily roams freely around the house and Rosie is calm and settled in his presence. Mark was great to deal with - we would happily recommend him to anyone needing help with dog issues. We haven't even booked a lesson or paid for the information, He just gave it to solve the problem fast for the safety of the pets.

- S.D, Waterloo, Wellington (Testimonial)

Trainer note from Mark
Sally rang up in a state with two Westies and a new kitten they were hassling. We had booked an appointment but the problem needed immediate attention. I gave her some advice to apply ,and she took it on board immediately. Problem solved. We didn't need the lesson and saved a cats life . Great outcome. Well done Sally

4th February 2016 - Mark Gall

My training with Mark was fantastic. The improvements in Chase's behaviour after that one session were remarkable. Mark is very clear in his teaching with instructions that were very clear and easy to follow. The training techniques are straightforward and very effective. The time spent training with Mark was fun and enjoyable. I would highly recommend Mark and Barkbusters to other dog owners.

- C.P, Blenheim, Marlborough (Testimonial)

Trainer note from Mark
Awesome job done by charlotte and her dog Chase.I had fun session and improvements were visible during the session. Keep up the good work

31st January 2016 - Keiko Ruwhiu

Even now, we can't believe what we saw on the first training day. Algo (our dog) has dramatically changed by Keiko's magical technique. We were very lucky to meet her becuase we could learn a lot of things from her lesson in our first language (Japanese). It's very informative and made a lot sense for us. She trained not only our dog but also ourselves and we understood that the dog does not change if we do not change. We are really looking forward to seeing incredible changes in the future. Finally we would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Keiko as your dog trainer.

- J.I, Remuera, Auckland (Testimonial)

28th January 2016 - Keiko Ruwhiu

We were very happy with how the first lesson went. I didnt take long before we saw that Roise was responding very well to the commands. We also felt like we were well educated and learnt many new things about Rosie and the reasoning by her behaviours.

- R.W, Birkenhead, Auckland (Testimonial)

27th January 2016 - Keiko Ruwhiu

We thought it was extremely informative. Good as the trainer took her time to explain and discuss everything in great detail and answered any and all questions. Keiko has a great demeanor and a passion for her job is evident. She is knowledgeable, enthusiastic, professional and friendly. She took charge of the situation immediately. In the time she spent with us, we have seen a change in Bubbles.

- A.F, Massey, Auckland (Testimonial)

26th January 2016 - Mark Gall

Very helpful session. I could see changes in Isa's behaviour by the end of the session, and now have some useful tools to continue with her training. I look forward to continuing to work with Mark on Isa's ongoing issues.
