Testimonials
Our 6 month old sheepadoodle did a 2 week board & train and I’m beyond impressed with her progress! Matt & Braylee are simply AMAZING!!
– Tisha Harrison
We had the BEST experience using Matt and his team in training our sheepadoodle, Cappie. We continue to lean on Matt for expert advice from time to time, as well. We also brought another sheepadoodle into our pack, a re-home from another client of Matt’s. Such an amazing experience when your trusted trainer knows you and your dog, and who will and won’t be a “good fit” together.
– Kristen McClain
Matt and his team at The Balanced Canine are incredible! We did 2 week board and trains for both of our German Shepherds (3 years apart) and they are the BEST dogs! We take them so many places in public, have large parties in our back yard, have people with small children over, I take them to school, they act like perfect gentlemen.
