We really enjoyed our session with Keiko. She was able to positively alter some of the bad habitual behaviour we had inadvertently allowed to develop for our puppy. It was great to be given one-on-one training in our surroundings to help us to help our puppy in a positive, holistic manner.
Trainer note from Keiko
I was very pleased the way Pebbles (5 months old Chihuahua Poodle cross) responded to the training. Pebbles is a very shy girl so take the steps slowly and be consistent. Keep up the good work!

Wonderful! Keiko explained her methods in a way that was easy to understand and achieve, we had a shared goal and I knew exactly what I needed to practice in order to improve my dog's behaviour. It was also a very quick fix where paying attention to the small things made the more challenging behaviours disappear.
Trainer note from Keiko
Milo (Labrador 4 year old) responded to the training very well. He stopped barking at the fence very quickly. Milo and his mum are A+ students! Great Job :)

The training has been very helpful. Storm has been responding well to my commands and listens to corrections. I feel as if my energetic dog has finally learned how to settle down and now listens and obeys my commands.
Trainer note from Keiko
I was very happy with the progress Storm (14 month old Husky) made. Consistency is the key. Keep up the good work!

Keiko is so knowledgeable about "speaking dog" and she has taught me to communicate to Humphrey in a way that he will listen. He's able to walk on a lead now without pulling and now the main thing we are working on is his recall. Thank you so much, Keiko, I can see Humphrey doing much better each day.

I was very pleased the way Humphrey (18 month old Labradoodle) responded to the lesson. He did very well. He is still a young boy so be patient and keep up the good work! :)

We are very impressed with the knowledge and skills Keiko has taught us so far. She was great with Déja and the methods she taught us have already changed the behaviours we called Bark Busters for. I wish we had found Keiko and Bark Busters sooner - highly recommend!!!!
Trainer note from Keiko
I was very pleased to see Deja (8 month old Staffy Chihuahua cross) responded to the lesson. She did very well. She is determine to please you. Keep up the good work! Deja can only get better with your patience and consistency :)

Keiko was very helpful. While it was a lot of information, it did give a clearer picture of my dogs behavior. I was especially surprised when I could touch Tomas' blanket the first time, he has always growled and been possessive of it.
Tomas' barking at the front door was also quickly remedied.
Trainer note from Keiko
That is great! I was very please with the way Tomas (1 year old Shih Tzu x) responded to the lesson. He just wants to do the right thing but he was confused before the lesson. Happy dog, happy owner! Keep up the good work!

Absolutely wonderful. Keiko is a great trainer and we have a different dog from the day she came to us. We will be following up the instructions.

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!
