About Us

“If they can't learn the way we teach, we teach the way they learn” - Dr. Ole Iver Lovaas

At Balanced Behaviour Dog Training, our goal is to educate owners and empower them to cultivate a positive and balanced relationship with their dog.

Training the dog is only one piece of the puzzle and produces temporary results; training the owner is where the magic happens and produces a lifetime of success!

We offer services that help to address challenging behaviours including: pulling on leash, reactivity, jumping, over-excitement, resource guarding, selective hearing, fear issues, excessive barking, counter surfing and more. Our programs aim to meet the owner's goals and empower them to live the best possible life with their dogs.​ We do not judge, blame or criticize owners for the struggles they are facing and aim to help them move onwards and upwards through education and training.

We utilize a variety of training tools and apply the principles of Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA) to help us establish a consistent communication system with each dog, by establishing a clear “YES” (what we want) and “NO” (what we don’t want). ​Please see the Tools We Use page for more information.

Our services are designed to work closely with each individual owner & dog team to determine the best approach and lifestyle. We believe that every owner and dog should have the opportunity to experience stress-free walks, a calm state of mind and safe off-leash adventures.​
