Reviews & Testimonials For Keiko Ruwhiu

Keiko was fantastic and helped us within the first hour of the session. She explained everything clearly and was very encouraging. We've got a way to go with our cheeky little puppy but it's great to have a training plan and plenty of exercises to work on.

Training techniques were easy and worked instantly! My dog responded straight away to stop barking and jumping. Keiko also explained to us the things people often do to their dogs, that the dog actually doesn't like. We were also taught how to read a dogs body language to learn how they are feeling. Absolutely brilliant! Thank you Keiko!

Keiko came round to help me with what I thought was my lovely, but untrainable dog. Even after a few minutes of activities I saw behaviour I have never seen from my dog before. Now after a few days of continued training I am certain I will have a lovely, well trained dog before we know it. Thanks Keiko!

We noticed an improvement from the moment Keiko left with how Leah walked on the lead and also in most other things. Looking forward to the next stage with how she performs with other dogs.

We were very impressed with Bark Busters. Keiko was very patient and informative and helped us to understand our dog. We are amazed how quickly and easily our dog has responded to the training and already see a huge improvement to his behaviour and overall happiness in just a couple of days. Thank you Keiko!

Keiko was amazing with both hazel and holly. She showed me how to demonstrate that I am the leader of the pack so they can relax more.

Keiko is a wonderful and very knowledgeable trainer, who really understood our dog's needs. We appreciated her positive approach, and she had some great advice for us regarding dogs behaviour Keiko made everything seem like common sense and she didn't train our dog...she trained us!

Evie's first training session was on Sunday. She is 18 weeks old. It was a great session. We got advice on barking, walking and training. She is already very responsive to the new techniques. Keiko was very helpful and modelled and provided feedback to myself and my husband.

I found Keiko very helpful and supportive and understanding. She was very good to give feedback of behaviors that she didn't like to see. I was grateful of hearing behaviors that were not helpful or just an automatic response. I found her to put my fears at bay.

Kia ora Keiko We were extremely impressed with your positive approach, wealth of knowledge and experience to assist us with the tools we need to train Maia. Our ultimate goal and wish is to be able to have visitors over home without the worry of her being aggressive towards them and to reduce her barking. We noticed instant results within the first few minutes of the 1st lesson and we were shocked to think she was even capable of adhering to the commands - she really did surprise us and it brought a few tears of relief and assuring us that there is hope. As a family we are committed to putting in the hard work so that we can enjoy her more as being part of our family of 6 (2 adults and 4 children). Thank you and we highly recommend your services.

Max had his first training last Saturday. During the training he responded to the trainer very well. I am so happy about Keiko's training skills. She taught us very easy but effective methods to train Max. If we follow her guidelines, we can expect a very obedient dog in future. We have to do our homework to achieve this target too.

Miraculous! We are amazed at how quickly our dog Leo has taken to this new form of communication. He is a different dog. We are able to walk him calmly and he listens to us now. It's like he wanted us to be the leader from the start but we just didn't know how to show him he could trust us. We had the first lesson yesterday and I have already recommended to all my coworkers!
