Zena came to me two years ago, already 6 years old and through a lot of challenging life changes and experiences. John worked so well with Zena and helped us to developed a more trusting relationship and gave me lots of fantastic tips and exercises to continue to use with Zena long after the training program concluded. Thanks, John!

We just finished training with John. We had a fearful, somewhat anxious 3 year old rescue mix. John couldn’t have been nicer to work with! He helped us with all of our concerns and issues in a knowledgeable and very respectful manner. We saw improvement after the first session! He gave us information to follow so we can continue to work with our girl moving forward! He definitely understands dogs and their people!! Give him a call!! Lynn
Good price and great knowledge and tools. Teaches the owner as much, if not more, than the pet!
After getting a new puppy and trying to train on our own we quickly realized we needed help. We loved working with John, he had each member of our family participate. He was patient and kind. Our puppy quickly picked up the skills we were trying to teach as long as we did our homework.
We became new puppy parents again after about 17 years and really needed help figuring out how to make little Gene a proper gentleman.

We became new puppy parents again after about 17 years and really needed help figuring out how to make little Gene a proper gentleman. We decided in home training would be best for our schedules and based on the great reviews chose Balanced Pooches. What a great decision it turned out to be. John was in a word fantastic. We had a fast approaching trip and he was able to accommodate our schedule and help us get Gene confident and ready for the adventure. John was always right on time and respectful and he taught us the importance of being leaders for or dog. Our Gene is still a puppy and has more work to do but from day 1 we already saw huge improvements. Like anything worth having in life, training takes consistency but John teaches you how to make it fun and easy! I highly recommend Balanced Pooches!
