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.

"Ric came and saved our family. We were at our wits end, but after just 1 session with Ric, our German Shepherd did a complete 180. We have been doing our set training each day and our dog has shown a massive improvement. Thank you Ric!"

"We had a great experience working with Philippa to improve our mini dachshund Bruno’s behaviour. She was knowledgeable and easy to work with, offering practical tips and tools that made a real difference, especially with Bruno’s door manners and barking. We've already seen noticeable improvements, and we feel much more confident managing his behaviour. Highly recommend Philippa to anyone looking for effective, compassionate dog training!"

"Glen was fantastic 👏 - we have 2 English Staffys (1 x 11YO & 1 x 12 week old) so was a challenge of 2 ages... but everything was clearly explained and implemented. The anxiety of letting our 2 dogs run and be free with each other was gone within seconds. You can teach an old dog new tricks too lol. Harley or pup is a work in progress.. but massive change since before Glen's first visit. Thank you 😊"

"Our Bordoodle Barney had developed some behavioural problems including lots of barking and madly running about in response to a range of stimuli, and had injured himself as a result. Philippa's first visit provided instant results. From that day Barney has been calmer and quieter. We continue to use the approach she demonstrated to us, and have found it to be very effective. While his behaviour has improved a lot, he continues to test us from time to time, but now we know what to do."

"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had Glen from Bark Busters come out to help with our dog Brody, and honestly, the results have been incredible. Within just a few days, we’ve seen amazing changes in Brody’s behaviour — he’s calmer, listens so much better, and feels more relaxed overall. Glen’s approach made total sense, and he explained everything in a way that was easy to follow and put into practice. You can tell he genuinely cares about both the dog and the owner. If you’re struggling with your dog’s behaviour or just want a better connection with them, I can’t recommend Glen and Bark Busters enough. It’s been a game-changer for us!"

"Had kye from bark busters take Wyatt for just around a hour and the improvements already are incredible I will definitely be having kye back many more times if your looking for a respectful and friendly person to help with your dogs kye is the one to go to"

Jake
Trainer: Kye Morris

"At first we thought Thor was completely out of control and just didn't gel well with other people/dogs. However after meeting with Glen, he helped us understand why he barks and get territorial. Truly step in to being an alpha, which has improved his behaviour dramatically! Super excited to continue working with Glen to see further improvements."

Egypt
Trainer: Glen & Maureen Guelfi

"I really cannot believe the difference in my dog! Suzi our gorgeous Am Staff was controlling and terrorising our house with her behavioural issues and we had no control over her what so ever. We had Kye and Bark Busters come out to help us and Suzi with their in home service which is incredibly helpful, we had so many doubts that Suzi just would not listen but I kid you not within the first 30 minutes of our lesson Suzi was already listening to me in a way she has never listened to me before, Bark Busters methods and how Kye explained everything is definitely professional and I with out a doubt recommend this to anyone who is having troubles with their dog!, I’m very much looking forward to Kye’s next visit to see our improvements and I love the fact that even if Suzi is naughty in the future I still can have Kye help me when needed as they have a Life guarantee! DEFINITELY the best decision I have made! thank you Kye and Bark Busters!"
