Our dog friendly training is
simple, natural and 'FAST'

Our methods focus on creating a positive relationship between you and your dog to improve your dog's behaviour and obedience. Our expertise is in understanding how a dog naturally thinks, learns and communicates and then using this to show you how to be your dog’s leader. Once this relationship is established, behaviour change is a natural next step. Our techniques work with any age, any breed, any issue. You and your dog get one-on-one attention, an individualised plan to suit your family AND guaranteed support for the life of your dog.

"Kye came to work with my hyperactive, boofheaded, lovable AmStaffX, Lily. It was incredible to see how quickly Lily responded to the commands, but also how you could see her thinking over what to do. Granted, it'll still take time to get this all through to her, however in only just over an hour, I could already see she was a different dog and that she's responded so well. The training itself was very clear and simple and didn't feel overloaded at all, plus something I felt I could manage on my own without having to remember complicated steps. But also knowing I've got Kye only a quick text or call away is reassuring knowing I can receive that help if needed. I would absolutely, 100% recommend Bark Busters to anyone in need of helping themselves to help their furry friend."

"I felt at ease with Glen and it was a very comfortable and professional session. It was lovely to see how much Glen loved dogs. I learnt so much just in the first session that I know is going to good for Buddy and myself."

"Glen taught us how to become the pack leaders in 2 hours. Our dog Miley's behaviour changed as soon as Glen came through the gate. He taught us how to stop Miley barking incessantly at visitors which we've put into practice with 100% success. We are absolutely delighted. Loose lead walking has become the norm after 2 days. A real concern for us was Miley chasing and mouthing our 3 year old granddaughter. Glen taught us how to stop it using the same technique that stopped her barking at visitors. All this is achieved without the use of treats. Just voice tone and posture. The great thing about Glen's visit is that we are now in control of our dog's behaviour. She's much more relaxed and calm. We can't thank Glen enough for what he has taught us."

"Philippa was amazing! She was greeted at the door by my new puppy and my elder chihuahua with nonstop barking. Before she was even in the door, she had gently quieted the cacophony and was able to introduce herself. It was truly amazing! She spent time with me explaining the program, roleplaying the training and giving great advice. Training practice takes only a few minutes for both me and my pup, and I can see a gradual difference in her behaviour every day. Thankyou Philippa for helping me restore order to the household."

"Review for Glen from Bark Busters Glen is an absolutely amazing dog trainer. He trained my German Shepherd who sadly passed away last year at the age of 13, and now he’s working with my new puppy, a Rottweiler x German Shepherd named Chomper. What I love about Glen is that he doesn’t just train dogs — he educates you as the owner. He teaches you the truth about healthy, natural dog nutrition that supports longevity and overall health, as well as explaining how dogs think, based on what naturally occurs in a wolf pack. His insight into the canine mentality and how they see humans is eye-opening, and he shows you exactly how to use that to your advantage for better behaviour and a stronger bond with your dog. If you want a trainer who’s knowledgeable, passionate, and genuinely invested in your dog’s well-being, Glenn from Bark Busters is the one to call. Highly recommended!"

"Ric was amazing with our dachshund Daisy! He gave us simple corrections to follow when she is reactive that we are looking forward to working on with her. She responded so well to the training in the first session with Ric! He has a really good way with dogs. We have been given a clear training schedule to work on before our next session in two weeks time. Excited to see the progress with his training methods."
