Sue is wonderful in her approach with both our dog and our family. Her directions are clear and she always explains the why as well as the how. Sue made all of us feel very comfortable and capable. I have recommended Bark Busters to collegues and friends. We look forward to working more with Sue. Thank you. - Corry C. - June 2010

Absolutely loved it. Noticed improvement in our dog immediately! Have recommended to my brother in London and he is now a Barkbuster lover too. It really works as long as you are consistent and follow the instructions. Sue is a great instructor and makes learning very easy.
- Debi and Joe K. - June 2010

We thoroughly enjoyed the training provided by Sue and the Bark Busters program. It just proves that we are never too old to learn something new. Our dog, Abby, has also benefitted from this experience and she thanks you for making her a better dog. The program has definitely worked for us. - Lois and Rob P. - May 2010

Bark Busters has been a life saver for my dog. I was considering having him put down because we were unable to get good behaviour out of him. We are three weeks into our training and although we still have some work to do, my neighbours and family are noticing how nice it is to have Harley around. Our trainer was awesome, Her help and understanding of our frustration was great. She gave us good reasons to explain why the dog was acting the way he was and explained how to fix it. Therefor giving us a little knowledge on how the dog thinks. Thanks Bark Busters - Kimberly and Jamie L. - May 2010

We are extremely pleased with Sue and what she has helped us with. We are still seeing improvement in Jack on a daily basis. I would definitely recommend Bark Busters (and have). When you learn to be the leader, good things happen. - Carol & David H. - May 2010

I was very pleased with the knowledge and informitive help Sue gave us. We could not believe the difference in Molly's behavour .We are very thankful to Sue ...
- Twila P. - May 2010

Sue has been amazing. There is nothing "generic" about Bark Busters training. Sue makes the training for our dog specific to our needs and prioritizes our needs accordingly. Our dog has improved greatly since we have been trained by Sue! I would definitely recommend Bark Busters to others. - Linda S. - April 2010

Sue has been very supportive and responsive to our needs. I am still learning the techniques. Fortunately the dog learns faster. I have recommended Sue to other friends and they seem very pleased. - Garth & Coral S. - April 2010

Our trainer is great! Very good at her job. Sue really has a way with dogs, it's amazing.
- Marisa T. - April 2010

Sue was a great trainer. She helped us understand what Abby is thinking and how to help her. We would definitely recommend Bark Buster to people we know.
- Sarah & Bret H. - March 2010

I found it interesting to discover that the dog owner requires about the same amount of training as does the dog. The Bark Buster System makes a great deal of sense and requires nothing more than a sincere desire to have a well trained dog. Our trainer Sue has been a tremendous help and has made the process enjoyable. - Jamie & Brian A. - February 2010

The bark buster method is easy to understand, Sue is a very positive, confident and energetic instructor. I have seen some improvement so far and I have no doubt it will continue.
- Jackie H. - February 2010

So far, the experience has been great. It's mind blowing once Sue explained what's going on in Autumn's head and the whole leadership thing, it just makes so much sense. Now I just have to work on me and the time I set aside to spend enforcing what i have learned with BarkBusters and am 100% confident that Autumn will be great in the end!!
- Tara F. - December 2009

We love Sue and Bark Busters, The fact our dog was only 10 weeks old when we started and how much he has learned is remarkable. Bark Busters works and is the best thing we could have done for ourselves and our dog. - Devon & Susan P. - December 2009

Bark Busters so far is amazing and very interesting. I love the no treat and no uncomfortable training techniques. And the training in the comfort of my own home. Thanks Cathy :) - Cathy B. - December 2009

Sue is an outstanding trainer, and we are very pleased with the results.
- Dale N. - November 2009

Over all I have found the suggestions that Sue made to be very helpful! Progress is steady, keeping in mind that I have a puppy! It is nice to know that I have someone that I can call upon when needed! - Fiona B. - October 2009

Sue is extremely helpful and accommodating. We really appreciate her positive approach and encouraging support. Our dog is 6 years old and quite set in her ways (or should I say our ways)so we have a lot of work to do. We are determined though, and feel confident that, with Sue's help, we can make a difference in our dog's behaviour. - Joyce and Don M. - July 2009

Sue is absolutely fabulous. She has taught us so many different ways to deal with a very difficult dog. Still a work in progress but results are truly amazing.
- Earl & Christine J. - July 2009

I cannot tell you how much better things are around our home since Sue first came here - and SO much more peaceful too! Sue has been extremely helpful in what she showed us and how she has continued to help us through the last two weeks. I know that we have seen a vast improvement in our dog and am very confident of what the future will be like too. I highly recommend Bark Busters to anyone struggling with the difficulties that come with dog ownership - especially those with fear aggression as I have seen what a difference it had already made in our dog in just two short weeks (actually it was much less than that - we saw improvement almost immediately!)!!! - Linda and David H. - June 2009

Sue is absolutely great! Barkbusters methods are very much in line with our thinking of how dog training should be. Natural training is always the best method. Our dog is learning very quickly and although still "stubborn" in some areas, has improved greatly.
- Debbie and Les B. - May 2009

Sue is and was very informative after the assessment of Sasha and very approchable when questions are put to her.

Great Trainer! - Ken L. - April 2009

Sue has been a wealth of knowledge for us. She has given us the skill that it takes to have control of some aggressive situations. Thanks Sue for all your patience and understanding!
- Tracey and Ken B. - April 2009

Sue is absolutely fantastic!!! We have and will recommend her to all of our pet-friendly friends! - Caroline B. and Tom D. - March 2009

Our experience with Bark Busters has been great, Sue is fantastic, she always makes sure that you understand what you're doing and why you're doing it. Its great too that when there is a problem or need to book a recall appointment she gets back to you extreamly quick; within an hour or so (if that). We couldn't believe the changes in Brody even in the first session. Its amazing!!! ... We will for sure be recommending Bark Busters to people that I know. - Angela & Doug P. - March 2009

Very impressed by how quickly/effectively dogs have improved behaviour.
S ue macinnes is very good, very personable, anticipates what dogs will do next and is always right. Impressed wiht BB system, expensive but it works and Sue is definetly giving us our moneys worth - Gary and Carol P. - March 2009

The one on one is excellent.Sue is easy to work with. The concept of Bark Busters is a wonderful, logical way to train our pets. Sue if you read this you are going to Garys brothers place this evening. Small world. - Carol and Gary P. - February 2009

We very much enjoyed our training session, we found our trainer to be very friendly and knowledgable. After our first session we felt we had a much better understanding of the reasoning behind our dogs behaviour issues and felt enthusiastic about continuing with the training we were taught. ... Our thanks to Sue McaInness- Erin and Yianni P. - October 2008

Sue was great! We were very unsure if we were doing the right thing and were scared of how our dog was going to react but it couldn't have gone smoother! Sue made us look at our relationship with our dog in a very different and more realistic way.
- Melanie Z. - September 2008

We have learned valluable lessons to help us and Molly. Sue was very wonderful to deal with. Her instructions were concise and very informative. Thanks so much! -
Michelle N. - September 2008

Sue was very professional and very friendly at the same time. She was able to explain everything to my wife and I in clear way, and any time we had difficulty she would take the time to explain it to us in another way, making sure that we finally understood he. Rocky (the dog) has improved dramatically and i feel confident that with time we will break him (and us lol) of all our bad habits. We had guests over on the weekend and although he did initially bark, using the training Sue provided we were able to get him to stop and everyone was able to relax and enjoy the visit. Thank you Sue. - Mark V. - September 2008

It has made a world of difference with our dogs. It is a challenge with three dogs, but things are so much better in such a short period of time! - Sandra S. - August 2008

My Goldendoodle- Sunshine is a beautiful puppy with a gentle temparament- wanting to please- I am a conscientious owner who really wanted a "well behaved" puppy so I read all the most highly recommended books- Bought Training DVDs and took her to "puppy obedience" classes. Sunshine was quite good but still had a few "issues" within the home and I could not get her to walk on a "loose leash" no matter what- Finally I decided to call Barkbusters.
... The results have been nothing short of "amazing". On the very first visit Sunshine was walking on a loose leash. Sue (my Bark Busters Trainer /Behaviourist) set me up with a "training programme" and gave me "expert advise" that has helped me mould my "gentle wanting to please" puppy into a "happy confident well mannered dog". And I am now a "very proud owner". The differences between Sue's training and "the others" are subtle but certain. Training in the home environment to individual needs is what I believe gives Barkbusters the "edge". I highly recommend Sue Macinnes at Barkbusters to all you owners who want to "walk proud" with your puppies. - Patricia D. - July 2008

I would have never believed, in such a short period of time, that Lola could be the chill dog that she is, since Sue taught us how to work with her. It really is a miracle!!!
- LeeAnn P. - June 2008

I found Sue to be great with the family and with our dog. I learned alot about dog behaviour which I know will help with our current dog and any other we encounter or own.
- Kathryn B. - June 2008

Sue was very helpful with all of our concerns. She understood that this is my first experience with an animal and she left very detailed instructions for us and made us feel that we can call her at any time if we have any problems. Shawn and I will definitely refer Sue to anyone who needs a dog trainer! - Katie D. - June 2008

We found Sue to be very helpful and accomodating to all family members especially in her sensativity to their needs concerning Igoo. We had fun while learning to help improve out home with Igloo. I have already told my friends how great she is and would recommend her if they needed help. - Cindy J. - June 2008

Sue is amazing! There was an immediate change in Jake's behaviour and we've been winning most of the daily challenges since the first training session. My only regret is that I didn't contact Bark Busters sooner! - Kathy & Mark D. - May 2008

My experience was very good. I felt no pressure or need to hurry. I felt that my trainer cared about my pets. She was kind and gentle and very relaxed. I would definitely recommend this agency. I have already told a number of people that I use BarkBusters.
- Indu P. - May 2008

Sue is a wonderful trainer, and we're very pleased with the program so far. Sue explained the program in a thorough manner, and took all the time we needed to understand it fully. I never give perfect marks because I always think there's room for improvement. In only 2 days, Kona is a different dog and we feel more secure in our role as pack leaders... We can already see that she feels less stressed about life and her role in the house. We're looking forward to our next training sessions with Sue. - Sabrina H. - April 2008

Excellent, the change in my dogs behavior is dramatic in a short period of time.
Thanks Bark Busters - Pat R. - April 2008

My puppy is 7 months old. I read lots of books, attended a Puppy Obedience course and worked with my dog every day yet was not successful in dealing with basics such as walking on loose leash- responding consistently to "come"- etc. After one 4 hour session with Sue MacInnes my dog is walking happily on loose leash and there is marked improvement in many other areas. Barkbusters methods trim the frills and fat of dog training and present it in a clear concise easy to understand fashion- pure genius. The Lifetime Guarantee was a huge seller to me but most of all- because of past negative experiences- I had to feel comfortable with the trainer and I certainly do. - Patricia D. - March 2008

I will not hesitate to recommend Sue and Bark Busters to my friends and family. My only regret is waiting this long to get the training. Excellent service and training.!!!!
Lucy F. - March 2008

We loved the one on one in our home experience. I feel that we have gained much more control over our puppy in our home now. - Melanie Jane P. - March 2008

Sue was amazing! We love your philosophy and understand our dog's behavior now. .. Mrs. Biscuits is really improving! She is on her way to becoming a good pet, instead of naughty all day long. She is happier now. - Melissa P. - March 2008

Thanks so much Sue. We are enjoying our puppy again. I can't believe the difference your program has made. I have told many friends and neighbors about your training and one of my friends is going to call you. I will be seeing my vet next week and will pass on the word. Best Wishes - Charlotte C. - Feb 2008

I can't believe what a difference it's made already!! Plus, it's not hard to do [something that is very important to me because I do have endurance limitations] Sue did a great job explaining the theory and training. I would have no hesitation in recommending her to other dog owners. - Rosemary D. - Jan 2008

I absolutely love it. I have four kids, three adult dogs in the house and three little puppies (three weeks old) and the house is much saner already. Nowhere near as much barking when they go out. I didn't know this kind of quiet was allowed during the day. Sue was just wonderful. She is very patient to deal with such a brood and was great on the phone as well. I really like it... Thank you for helping us out!
- James R. - Jan 2008

The material provided and demonstrated was easily understood and thoroughly explained by the therapist. I was impressed with the immediate results following a single three hour session. The therapist followed up as stated with an e-mail and additional written information for me to apply. I look forward to further involvement with Sue MacInnes and Barkbusters . Thank You. - Pete C. - January 2008

I'm very pleased with my experience with Bark Busters. The methods seem to be working and Max has already improved within one week! Thank you so much. - Emily L. - Dec 2007

This was a great experience & our dogs are responding very well!! I feel great about being able to understand how my dogs think and behave. Things are a lot more quiet around my house & we've had 2 pee free days!!! Sue, you are a great trainer not only for the dogs but for us as well!! Thanks!!! - Shannon R. - Dec 2007

We are very pleased with the turn around in Natalija.. the improvement has been huge to say the very least!! We've continued to work on things with her and feel that everything is moving in a positive direction - Thanks to Sue! - Liz C. - Dec 2007

Hi Sue! Rocky is doing great. He is responding really well to the bah and his recall is improving too. We have progressed from a distracting toy car to a mirror--the next best thing to a real dog--and Rocky's doing well. The computer bark is great too. Outside, his progress is really showing when we see other dogs. I laugh now when I hear someone reprimanding their dog to "listen", because I now realize how silly we are to think they'll understand us. Thank-you so much for everything Sue! - Annie and Chris H. - Oct 2007

We really enjoyed the experience with Barkbusters. It simplified things for us. We now have a consistent communication between ourselves and Oscar, that Oscar understands.... Sue was great with Oscar and explained things very well to us. We really enjoyed working with her in our home. I would recommend the Bark Buster service to others. Thank you. - Bonnie & Chad W. - Oct 2007

I have been telling everyone about my superb experience with my trainer, Sue MacInnes. This includes my sister in Arizona and she responded that I was so lucky to have found Bark Busters! I will continue to shout my praises! - Catherine D. - Oct 2007

Sue, you were a most excellent help to both Elise and myself.. I will be sure to recommend you to some of our friends. Thank you so much. - Joe T. - Oct 2007

I know that the Bark Busters System has definitely made a big difference in my dogs behavior. Its only been a few days ... the difference in Indigo and Sound is amazing. Thank you for your help! - Sandra T. - Oct 2007

Susan is full of knowledge and easy to talk to. Great service ... - Judy A. - Sept 2007

I'm only sorry I did not hear about Bark Busters sooner. May have saved me from a few scares ... We are learning how to be in control of how Russell lives in the home. Thank you to Bark Busters and for Sue our trainer!! who is fantastic!! - Patricia & Joe R. - Sept 2007

Having Sue in our home to teach us how to train our dogs was a wonderful experience. Schatzie & Cleo have changed sooo much in 1 week it's amazing, now I don't have to be embarrassed when people enter our home. - Marlyn G. - Aug 2007


Zorro is so different, I think I need to rename him. All I can say is WOW, and thank you. I wish I had known about BB two years ago. I would have less grey hair:) We will keep in touch. - Dawn H.- August 2007

Very pleased and would highly recommend.+ + + + + - Isabel H. - Aug 2007

Wow!!!!!!! He is like a different dog and I've been telling EVERYONE!!!! - Janet W. - Aug 2007

If I did not experience the change with Wookie, I would not have believed such a change was possible, so fast. - Tatiana B. - June 2007

Hello Sue - I just wanted to say thank you! It was amazing to see the results so quickly, and no physical force and in such little time. Since you left my dogs have both slept all day near me. With me just saying Bahh most of the time they listen. When I left the dogs loose in the living room to get the mail I just said bahh when they went to come down the stairs and they went and laid down... I took Bella into the backyard and practiced having her follow me and corrected her when needed, then went out front for a little walk. We went about 5 driveways down and she actually walked behind me with a loose lead and I only corrected her once... I still take both dogs out to the back yard on leash. They are doing really well with that as well...Thank you once again. - Crystal N. - May 2007

It was a great experience. We learned a lot and cannot believe how quickly the Bark Busters methods worked to improve Cody's behaviour. Neighbours are asking us if it is the same dog and we are pleased and proud to say "yes". Thank you. - Sherry M. - May 2007

I can't believe the difference with Louie. He is a different dog. We are no longer on pins and needles when someone comes to our door. - Megan A - May 2007

Sue, you were amazing. What a difference in our dogs. Especially with the barking. It has only been one week, and we know we still have a lot of work a head of us, but we are confident this will continue to help. Molly is doing extremely well. Chloee is still not responding to the recall or walking on lead well, but we are working on it. We will keep you up to date. Thanks again. - Edie P. - May 2007

I am very impressed with your system of training dogs. There is a definite improvement in molly, although she is testing me at times. I would recommend your trainer to anyone having problems with their dog. - Frances C. - April 2007

The initial visit was nothing short of amazing. We didn't think Buddy had it in him to "get it" with any kind of training. We are working very hard within our household to practice the techniques that were taught to us. We seem to be gaining our control back within the house...

- Heather & Ashley C. - March 2007
