Bark Busters Reviews and Customer Testimonials

Emma has completely changed our boys for the better! I knew what ever I was doing clearly wasn’t getting through to the boys and she gave some simple instructions and changes and finally my boys are listening to me and I can communicate what I want from them in a way they’ll understand! We have been practising loose leash walking every morning, and then consistently through out the day/evening I have been working on them politely entering inside the house, going through gates and doorways. We also haven’t had an accident of Ripp jumping up on the bench!! We are working on separation anxiety and the boys have taken on to it sooo well!

Mikey was already a great puppy, but I particularly struggled to have her attention when outside on walks, and whenever guests came over. Bark Busters gave me great tools, including the collar, which gave me back control. She responds super quickly, and I feel like she’s almost immediately turned into a calmer, happier dog, even just after a few days!

Our 5-year-old labrador, Bernie, has been anxious since he was a puppy. He’s loving and outgoing with people he knows and he’s relaxed in familiar spaces or outside when no strangers are around. But whenever we had visitors or went somewhere new, he’d be on high alert, visibly stressed and constantly scanning for “dangers.” It was as if he went deaf to us, no matter what we did to get his attention - he would be on high alert and stressed. Being a pandemic dog made things harder. He missed critical socialisation with other people and dogs, and his early interactions with other “pandemic dogs” weren’t great, which only made him more wary. We’d tried other trainers before, but they told us this was just his nature and we should limit his exposure. That didn’t sit right with us, because once Bernie feels comfortable he’s incredibly loving and loves people, dogs and exploring. And we’re social people, so we want our dog to share in our daily life. From the first session, Emma was amazing. She explained the root of his behaviour and walked us through the solution step by step, starting with theory and then showing us exactly what to do in practice. By the end of the session, Bernie was a different dog. He even lay down calmly while Emma was in the house, something he had never done with new visitors! We realised we simply hadn’t been communicating to him in a way that reassured him we had things under control. I’ve since been gradually introducing Bernie to new experiences, and I now also feel confident handling these situations. His stress and anxiety are at an all-time low, and he’s thriving!! I couldn’t recommend Emma more. Thank you for everything!! :)

Emma was insightful about our struggles with our puppy, many techniques and strategies were provided and could see a difference within the first day, I would definitely recommend Emma

We have 3 dogs and previously lived on a farm. Now that we're in suburbia the dogs have been quite stressed. Emma has provided us with a plan to combat their many issues and even after her first visit, the dogs are responding well. Emma was professional and friendly and explained everything very well. I would certainly recommend Emma and Bark Busters to anyone experiencing problems with training their dogs.

Emma was awesome, she explained how and what training was needed for Leia. We all learnt a lot and are looking forward to learning and working with Emma, to bring the best for Leia.

Training went so well clear and informative doug has reacted so well to the training

Emma quickly understood the problem I was having with my two year old Maltese Shi Tzu called Molly. The advice Emma gave me along with a practical demonstration of how to moderate Molly's behaviour resulted in an immediate improvement in Molly's focus and manner. With further application of the advice Emma gave me I am sure that Molly's behavioural problems can be fully dealt with.

Emma is a fantastic trainer and very professional. We had a very positive experience.

Emma is fantastic, she has reset our dogs and now we just need to keep it going. Our house is at last peaceful. Thank you Emma and bark busters

Thankyou to Emma for starting us on our training program. So far so good and we're confident it will go well

Emma is a wonderful woman who you can clearly see has a lot of knowledge and passion for helping dogs. She took the time to explain everything with thorough detail and was patient with myself and Harper when doing the training. I look forward to catching up with Emma again and I feel confident that her advice will help us.
