ONE DOG AT A TIME
Hi! I'm Maleah.
Owner and Dog Behaviorist
Welcome to Playful Balance Dog Training! I am Maleah, the owner and founder of Playful Balance. I have been working with dogs since 2018, I got my start as an apprentice for a large boarding facility that specialized in training dangerous dogs. I have also taken part in a project that involved dogs with thyroid imbalances and learned just how much hormones tie into behavior.
I train and compete with my own dogs in agility, rally and obedience, earning several High in Trial awards. I continue to compete in many sports while actively improving my skills and knowledge for higher levels of competing; as well as learning as many versatile training techniques as I can.

A Personalized and Balanced Approach to Dog Training
Dog training is an art comprised of both science and method.
Since each dog and owner combination is different, I tailor my approach to the specific dog in front of me. I only offer private lessons, which gives me the greatest ability to help you reach the training goals you have. I have experience working with the following:
I also offer AKC Title Testing!
HAPPY OWNERS HAPPY DOGS
Maleah provided actionable items for us to do to address the problem. I feel like we're actually going to make some progress now. I would highly recommend Playful Balance Dog Training!
Maleah is THE best of the best in dog training! She has a wealth of knowledge and experience in obedience training. More importantly, her love for dogs and commitment to success/ positive training techniques is evident in every aspect of her work.
I came to Maleah needing a lot of help with my border collie and she has been such a great resource. She was also always willing to answer my questions, provide feedback / advice and was always available to help.
Maleah is AMAZING! Willow now walks on a leash with total control and focus. Willow has learned how to settle and control her emotions. Willow continues to grow in her separation anxiety and feels so much more comfortable and confident in her crate.
