McClain's Balanced Dog Training

Best Bay Area dog trainer! McClain's training exceeded my expectations, providing invaluable tips that transformed my puppy's (Callie) life! McClain's guidance helped Callie master basic commands within 1 month. I found potty training to be challenging, but we were able to get it down after 2 training sessions. I've considered group classes, but there is so much value in having these 1:1 sessions that is catered to Callie's needs. You can share main areas you'd like to focus on, and McClain will create the learning path! She'll even follow up via email for a check in & share reminders/tips. McClain's patience and understanding of my dog's behavior ensured effective, tailored training. Callie started working with McClain when she was only 4 months old... It's only been 2 months & my neighbors have raved about Callie being advanced for her age - All thanks to McClain! Highly suggest McClain for dog training! She will help you establish a foundation for good behavior so you and your dog can bond & enjoy your life together! Thank you, McClain!

I have an almost 14 year old dog (Betty) who is terrified of thunderstorms. McClain taught me how to lead Betty through some simple standard behaviors such as “sit” and “down” etc. with rewards and praise all of which distracts her from her thunderstorm fear so we both are anchored is what we know and each other. It has made all the difference in the world. Yep, have to say it…old dogs can learn new tricks!! Thank you, McClain!!
