Romeo Bio
Romeo is a gentle giant. He loves love and serving his person. Romeo successfully passed his public access test recently and has been training in a variety of different settings (home, office, gym, grocery stores, hardware stores, school, ect.). Romeo responds well to commands in all these environments the first time.
Romeo’s heart of gold and love for his person would make him an excellent candidate as a psychiatric service dog. He bonds to his person through affection and praise. He calms the anxious heart quickly and discretely with a nudge of his nose and immediate reminder to pet him. We continue to work on his ability to detect and deter his human from undesired behaviors (scratching/skin picking/ect). These behaviors vary from person to person, so final development with this skill should be refined with his human. Romeo provides deep pressure therapy and accepts snuggles when his human need comfort (or anytime). Out and about, he has learned boundary maintenance ensuring no one startles his person from behind. Finally at night, Romeo trained easily to sleep bedside. He is on call and ready to help whenever you need him.
Romeo’s size lends itself to assistance with balance and other mobility needs as well. He is learning to brace his stance to attend to the task of providing extra support for his human moving between sitting and standing. Romeo walks gently on his leash close to his human, so this training could tailored to balance needs.
Romeo’s family life has included older children and adults. His limited interaction with smaller children means he is less confident around them. While he could adapt, his preferred person is at least 12 years old and knows how to treat dogs kindly. Romeo loves men most! Where some pups, shy away from the deep male voice, Romeo finds himself drawn to it. Romeo’s current and developing skill set make him a great service dog & companion for Veteran of the military, law enforcement, or first responder community.
Romeo has a curious, yet submissive demeanor. He has learned that cats are always the boss and learns pack order with other dogs well. Romeo has proven that other animals are not a distraction for him when he is working, even his own sister. His gentle giant personality would enjoy snuggling on beach or watching you play video games than play fetch a ball.
Romeo is a larger dog, but would do well with anything from apartment living to a house with large yard. He definitely prefers to spend his days with his person wherever that happens to be. Romeo is house trained and will potty on command (if he needs to go) in a small grass area.
Romeo stole the hearts of his guardian family and they love him dearly with open arms. They know Romeo is ready to be part of a family and team where he will be a blessing and be blessed. His heart and mind are ready to serve you. If this gentle giant sounds like the service dog you need, please contact Balanced Obedience to schedule a time to meet Romeo!
Romeo has passed the Public Access Test. Romeo includes lifetime trainer support and eligibility to return for boarding at Balanced Obedience.

I have known Sabrina for nine years, and I deeply respect her devotion to dog psychology, pack behavior, and the human/canine bond. Our family has two dogs from Sabrina; Teddy who is 9 1/2, and Blue who is 8. To see Sabrina in action with her dogs is nothing short of poetic. She embodies loving pack leadership; no need for harsh discipline or even treats to elicit good behavior. I still remember Sabrina's words when we brought Teddy into our family 9 years ago: "we reward good behavior with love, not treats". Sabrina's dogs adore her because she is a confident leader who loves her pack unconditionally.
Over the years I have boarded my dogs with Sabrina. Every time we meet, she takes her time to offer advice on diet, flea prevention, and behavior modification. Most recently Blue earned his American Kennel Club Canine Good Citizen award and is now well on his way to becoming a hospital therapy dog, in large part to Sabrina's excellent training.
Sabrina inspires me to fulfill my lifelong dream of working with dogs. She believes in compassionate leadership. Her approach to canine health and behavior is holistic and she works tirelessly to help our community raise confident, well-adjusted dogs. I am grateful to know her, and I recommend her services to anyone looking for a dog trainer.

First off, I can’t say enough how AWESOME Sabrina of Balanced Obedience is. I thought that I would be able to train my pup myself. However, Bailey, my pup is going on 2 years old, Bailey was getting more rascal, and constantly testing my patience. I thought it was time to establish better behavior with a more seasoned trainer before Bailey’s behavior got any worse. I signed up to have Bailey do the 2 week board and training program. Before training, Bailey would drag me and take me for a walk, Lol…Sabrina not only corrected Bailey’s bad habits, but for the first time when I got her back from training, it was such a pleasure having Bailey heal by my side when going for walks. I never had that happen before. Now, it is like Bailey is a brand new Goodest girl EVER. Not only, does she heal by my side when we walk, she sits when we stop, just wow! Before training, Bailey would grip things in her mouth tighter when I ask for it, like I had to fight her to get it back. Now, when Bailey grabs things with her mouth, she drops it when I ask her to. Before, when I would have guests over, Bailey would just run towards them and have no concept of personal space. Now, she stays until given permission to greet them. There are so many positive aspects of Bailey’s training with Sabrina, that I could go on for days. I have so much joy in this new well behaved puppy of mine, all thanks to Sabrina and her excellent ways of training with assertiveness and love. I highly recommend Sabrina for your dog’s wellness behavior and training sessions. We believe and love Sabrina so much that we got a Golden-Doodle puppy from Sabrina and enrolling her in the 2 week board and train program. Also, if you have any questions, Sabrina is so responsive and helpful with tips post training as well. I highly recommend Sabrina for your dogs training needs. Did I mention how amazing Sabrina is? Having a well trained puppy does such wonders to our mental health as well. Thank you so much Sabrina!!!

My friend with a service dog recommended Sabrina to me to help me with a new dog I was hoping to get. Sabrina coached me on what breeds would be best for me and then, through her, I rehomed an 8 month Goldendoodle pup who had been through Puppy Boot Camp. I was shocked when she told me to keep him on leash all the time until 30 days after he was neutered. In retrospect, that was an excellent practice. My pup got used to me and we bonded beautifully. Not only that, he was very well trained in his basic commands and executed them very well. But the best thing about working with Sabrina was that although I hadn't participated in any training with her, she extended to me free access to her online course and has been available to me for any problems I may encounter. I also take comfort in being able to board my dog there. He seems happy as can be and can socialize and play with the other dogs plus I know he will be well cared for.
I am very grateful for all of Sabrina's help and support and recommend her unconditionally to anyone looking for excellent dog training.

We adopted Blue as a 2 year old from Sabrina, having already been through the Balanced Obedience program with Sabrina. I have to say he is the best dog we could ask for and is a great family dog. He came to us with a great foundation from the training program. We love going for walks, playing fetch and wrestling with him. He was a great playmate to a foster dog we recently hosted, even though he was much larger than the puppy.

A Life-Changing Experience with Sabrina at Balanced Obedience – Oahu's Canine Whisperer!
My Review:
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I recently had the pleasure of enrolling my service puppy BlueBerry in training sessions with Sabrina at Balanced Obedience on Oahu, and the transformation has been nothing short of amazing! Sabrina's expertise, dedication, and genuine love for dogs make her the true canine whisperer of the island.
From the very first session, it was evident that Sabrina possesses an innate understanding of dog behavior. Her approach is not just about obedience training but establishing a balanced and harmonious relationship between owner and dog. Sabrina took the time to assess my dog's unique personality, tailoring the training program to address specific needs and challenges.
One of Sabrina's standout qualities is her patience and kindness towards you AND your dog. She creates a positive and encouraging environment, making the learning process enjoyable for both dog and owner. Her ability to break down complex commands into manageable steps ensures that progress is steady and consistent.
What sets Sabrina apart is her holistic approach to dog training. She doesn't just focus on basic commands; she delves into understanding the underlying behaviors and addresses them with a mix of positive reinforcement and correction when needed. This comprehensive methodology results in a well-rounded, well-behaved canine companion.
Beyond the training sessions, Sabrina's commitment to her clients is commendable. She is always available for questions, concerns, or that extra bit of encouragement. Her genuine passion for what she does shines through, creating a supportive community of dog owners who share in the success stories of their beloved pets.
The results speak for themselves. My dog's behavior has undergone a remarkable transformation, and the newfound bond between us is truly heartwarming. Sabrina's guidance has not only improved my dog's obedience but has enriched our relationship in ways I hadn't imagined.
If you're seeking an exceptional dog trainer on Oahu, look no further than Sabrina at Balanced Obedience. Her expertise, personalized approach, and unwavering dedication make her the go-to professional for those looking to build a deeper connection with their furry companions. Thank you, Sabrina, for the positive impact you've had on both my dog and me – you're nothing short of a canine miracle worker!
