Bark Busters UK Reviews 

I paid £500 for the package (“as long as it takes”) to cure our Shih Tzu of his random and unexpected biting. But was given nothing that worked, after 2 visits and lots of trying the (limited) advice afterwards. I had enough, it was clear after these 2 visits it wasn’t going to works for us. As the trainer had only been twice I asked for a negotiated settlement to end the deal, thinking maybe £200-£250 back (which I suggested). I was told (which I later found IS in their t+cs) the £500 is just for visit one, and the rest are “free” follow up visits. Vey clever, so you can never cancel/get a refund as when they have been once you’ve “spent” the £500! They did reluctantly give me £100 back but I paid £400 for nothing of value. I can’t recommend this company.

Gavin was really friendly with excellent advice . Listened to all our concerns and spent time explaining everything . Love the written feedback . Practised a few skills there and then . Overall we are very happy . Would highly recommend. A great start thank you . 🤩

I was at my wits end and worried I should have my dog rehomed. I felt like the worst dog owner ever. She was barking at every little sound and running up and down. I rang to enquire and was treated with kindness and compassion and they quickly arranged for Ben to come and visit us. After the three hours I could not believe the difference in my confidence and my dog’s behaviour. Less barking but if she starts barking the techniques taught soon end it. I’m happier and she’s so much calmer. I could not believe it.

It was fantastic, Sydney was patient with us and showed us how to get Ronnie’s attention and slowly built up the learning to ensure not only us but Ronnie felt comfortable. Clear instructions followed up by an email with all the information we needed. Would highly recommend

The experience and skill of the Trainer (Tom) made the initial session relaxed, informative and ultimately produced positive outcomes.

The Comms from Bark Busters was second to none, regular contact leading up the session with insights into what to expect and what preparations were needed to put into place.

Kirsty is a great trainer. Made us feel very comfortable and confident in what we have to learn. She is very confident and knows what she is talking about. Our pup Loba (German Shepard) struggles with barking when in reactive environments aka. Door knocking or people getting up and walking away, aswell as other things. She was able to give support and recommendations as to what we could do and ways we could help Loba. It’s also a plus that Loba was happy to be around her. As a family we would 100% recommend!!

We asked Kirsty to help with our miniature daschaund … we had an initial phone consultation and she made it easy and straightforward to understand what training plans were needed… our initial first visit was 3 hours at the family home … Kirsty saw us without our dog and discussed trading options and gave us a plan of what to do… we then introduced her to our dog … literally after 30 mins she had totally transferred my dogs behaviour around!!Kirsty is absolutely incredible, I feel like I have a new dog and a fairy god mother to help me xxx

Kirsty came out to see us to help with our two Romanian rescue dogs, one of them was starting to show possessive and reactive behaviour and within 3 hours we had a massive improvement. Kirsty has given us the tools to be able to work with our pooches, and I'm incredibly happy with her training so far, it's early days but I'm looking forward to how they get on in the next few weeks!

We are very unhappy with this experience and feel they did not help us. We feel they completely deceived us in regards to the amount of money we had to pay. This is because we payed a large amount of money for such a little time and little help. They advised us to use negative reinforcement with our dogs and did not assist us with the issues we asked for their help in. Overall, they are useless

Tom has plenty of knowledge to share, he is confident in what he does. He doesn't overload you with too many training techniques, gets you to focus on 1 or 2 techniques at a time, gives plenty of information and is always a text/phone call away if we need any more advice.

We contacted Bark Busters as we had concerns with our dogs behaviour. A friend told me about Bark Busters and that they come to visit you at home. Making an appointment was easy.

Lynn was relaxed, friendly and very professional, she gave us some invaluable, very straightforward advice, from restricting the view our dog had of the street to advice on the best type of food for our dog. We were given steps to follow and practice daily to help our dog become less anxious in certain situations and after only 24 hours, we can see an improvement in our dogs behaviour.

I cannot recommend Lynn highly enough, she listened to our concerns, observed our dog, asked relevant questions and explained why our dog was behaving in that way. I wasn’t made to feel that we had done anything wrong. I would definitely recommend Lynn and Bark Busters for anyone who has concerns about their dogs behaviour.

I have 2 cane corsos with one specifically displaying fear agression. I have been turned down by every company I phoned and most never even returned my calls messages or emails. I was completely desperate as he’s overall a fantastic dog with a lot of potential and the faults with the dog are clearly a me issue. From the moment I received a callback from bark busters every single person I was in contact with was nothing short of fantastic. The support I received was something I could never even imagine getting. Never felt judged for any mistake I made. Abi and Kirsty have equipped me with very valuable tools to navigate my situation with objective is a very tricky one. I don’t think I can recommend them hard enough. Thank you so so much!

Abi was brilliant, she was very calm and explained everything, was very professional and friendly, didn’t feel judged or like we were wrong with our dogs, she helped setup the training and didn’t over do the training process or make it complicated, she set rules and explained the reasons why. We would 100% recommend abi to anyone with dog problems or needs help with there dogs. After one session we have already seen a small improvement.

Sarah has given us loads of advice and tips to help us calm our over exited staffie. We have followed her instructions to the letter and we are already seeing improvement. We are looking forward to her next visit for more training.

Gavin was very friendly and explained everything to me. He gave me plenty of advice. He was with us for 3 hours and never rushed anything.

Gavin was full of knowledge how to teach me to Train my beagle dog Bella. Gavin also has very good knowledge about pet food and gave advise on which kind of food to feed Bella.Between Gavin and myself we managed to train Bella to her best ability, lead training barking to listen to my commands and obey. I have a good dog now we have long lovely walks without pulling and barking at people.
I would highly recommend Bark Busters If you live in South Yorkshire you would get Gavin as your trainer put everything into practice every day what Gavin teaches you and you will not go wrong.

Kirsty was very knowledgeable and gave some hands on exercises to practise. Our dog has responded well and although not where we want to be, we are heading in the right direction. I'm glad we still have the year for support.

I had this company come to my home and they have been excellent, even down to after care. They are very thorough and have a lot of knowledge. I noticed a massive improvement in my dog after just one session. Instructions and care plan to follow on from the sessions are very clear to understand. Definitely recommend to anyone with dogs, 100% worth every penny!

We had bark busters, for my broken dog, which Lee from bark busters fixed in 20 minutes with one simple word. Yes there expenses but you get what you pay for.
Yes my dog isn't fixed completely in one session it will take many more but what a start im well impressed wouldnt go anywhere else, just perfect can't say anything bad about bark busters perfect.
If your dog is broken let bark busters fix them..

Wonderful experience with Lynn from Bark Busters, she made a difference in just a few hours she spent with us and I have already seen a massive improvement in my dogs' behaviour after a couple of days. She has armed us with the right tools and techniques to get our dogs to understand the behaviour we want from them and just a few small changes has made such a difference to their behaviour already and I know she is there if I need any help and to check in. Everything she explained made complete sense and helped us understand how our dogs behave as a result of how we act. I can't recommend or thank Lynn enough.
