Pepper just completed a board and train stay at Balancing Paws and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the beginning, they treated Pepper like family while also giving her the structure, consistency, and guidance she needed. We noticed such a difference in her confidence, responsiveness, and overall calmness after coming home. The communication throughout the stay was amazing — updates and photos via Instagram that made us feel completely comfortable and 2 referrals helped us with trusting them with our girl. What stood out most was how balanced their approach felt. It never felt harsh or one-size-fits-all. They really took the time to understand Pepper’s personality and work with her in a way that supported both training and emotional regulation. If you’re looking for trainers who genuinely care about dogs and their humans, I highly recommend Balancing Paws. We’re so grateful for the foundation they helped create for Pepper.

Yoni and his team saved my dog! When he lost his brother, he became so depressed and anxious, I feared I was going to lose him next. He started having both behavioral and medical issues and my vet gave me information on Balancing Paws. After working with Yoni, my dog and I started bonding on a deeper level and I am so happy to report that one year later, he is happier than I've ever seen him. He is better trained than he ever was but more importantly, he is calm and content and I can tell he feels safe. I can't say enough about Balancing Paws and what they did for us. They really care about their customers. If you're willing to put in the work, you'll see results!
We’ve been working with Yoni for training and I couldn’t be happier. Bodhi has made real progress with focus, impulse control, and confidence around other dogs. Yoni explains things clearly and makes training feel doable and realistic.

We cannot thank John enough. Coming home to a destroyed house or a high strung dog was a nightmare. John gave us practical real world training exercises that allowed us and our dog to live a more stress free life. Thank you again, highly recommend John to anyone who needs their dog in check. (When training, there is no use of chain, choke, or shock collars. All training is food and behavior motivated.)
