About Balanced Dogs
Owner & Canine Behavior Consultant Dee Green has been professionally nurturing human-canine relationships for 20+ years, on the westside. About 10 years ago, dissatisfied with the results traditional dog training delivered, Dee began to re-examine how she communicates with dogs and their people. Dee re-examined dog behavior from the dog’s perspective, and began modeling her methods on behaviors she saw dogs using to communicate with other dogs. Today, Dee operates at the intersection of human & canine behavior. Santa Monica Dog Coach’s programs prioritize trust over obedience. Santa Monica Dog Coach’s methods never involve force, fear, or coercion. Santa Monica Dog Coach’s canine behavior philosophy honors canine agency & consent.

She was amazing !!! Couldn’t not have taken care of a new puppy without Dee’s help
Dee is the best--she is super strict but my puppy was house trained in 2 weeks. Yo.u have to follow her instructions and work hard but her method works! You won't be sorry! I couldn't be happier
Taking some time but my dog is getting better with the harness.
Dee was so great and the dogs loved her!
